Overview of Gene Research
Mir22, an endogenous microRNA, is involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression, playing a role in diverse biological processes. Its dysregulation is associated with various diseases. It participates in epigenetic pathways and is part of gene regulatory axes, highlighting its biological importance [1,2]. Genetic models, such as gene knockout mice, are valuable for studying Mir22's functions.
In a study on rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Mir22-/-mice were used to establish a collagen antibody-induced arthritis (CAIA) model. Results showed that MIR22 inhibits inflammation in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) of RA patients by directly inhibiting the translation of TET3, which in turn affects the pro-inflammatory effect on MTRNR2L2 through 5-hydroxymethylcytosine production. This reveals the key role of the MIR22-TET3-MTRNR2L2 pathway in RA-FLSs [1]. In another study, in a mouse model of dopaminergic neuron-related disease, dysregulation of the SATB1-MIR22-GBA axis led to glucocerebroside accumulation, causing a cellular senescence-like phenotype in dopaminergic neurons [2].
In conclusion, Mir22 is crucial in regulating gene expression and has a significant impact on biological processes related to diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and Parkinson's disease-related dopaminergic neuron phenotypes. Gene knockout mouse models have been instrumental in uncovering these functions, providing insights into disease pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets.
