miR-205-5p inhibits homocysteine-induced pulmonary microvascular endothelium dysfunction by targeting FOXO1

Homocysteine (Hcy) is a risk factor for multiple chronic diseases, and vascular endothelial cell injury has been regarded as the initiating step for this process. miRNAs are involved in Hcy-induced endothelial dysfunction, while the underly...

description Homocysteine (Hcy) is a risk factor for multiple chronic diseases, and vascular endothelial cell injury has been regarded as the initiating step for this process. miRNAs are involved in Hcy-induced endothelial dysfunction, while the underlying mechanism and roles of miRNAs in pulmonary endothelial dysfunction induced by homocysteine are unknown. Here, we find that miR-205-5p alleviates pulmonary endothelial dysfunction by targeting FOXO1 in CBS<sup>+/‒</sup> mice to protect against Hcy-induced pulmonary endothelial dysfunction. Mechanistically, we show that Hcy can lead to DNA hypermethylation of the miR-205-5p promoter due to the increased binding of DNMT1 to its promoter, which contributes to reduction of miR-205-5p expression. In summary, miR-205-5p promoter hypermethylation causes downregulation of miR-205-5p expression, resulting in a reduction in miR-205-5p binding to FOXO1 during homocysteine-induced pulmonary endothelial dysfunction. Our data indicate that miR-205-5p may be a potential therapeutic target against Hcy-induced pulmonary injury.
