Abstract

Our previous studies have shown that miR-511-3p treatment has a beneficial effect in alleviating allergic airway inflammation. Here, we sought to explore its therapeutic potential in animal models and gain a deeper understanding of its therapeutic value for asthma. miR-511-3p knockout mice (miR-511-3p-/-) were generated by CRISPR/Cas and showed exacerbated airway hyper-responsiveness and Th2-associated allergic airway inflammation compared with wild-type (WT) mice after exposed to cockroach allergen. RNA nanoparticles with mannose decorated EV-miR-511-3p were also created by loading miR-511-3p mimics into the mannose decorated EVs with engineered RNA nanoparticle PRNA-3WJ (Man-EV-miR-511-3p). Intra-tracheal inhalation of Man-EV-miR-511-3p, which could effectively penetrate the airway mucus barrier and deliver functional miR-511-3p to lung macrophages, successfully reversed the increased airway inflammation observed in miR-511-3p-/- mice. Through microarray analysis, complement C3 (C3) was identified as one of the major targets of miR-511-3p. C3 was increased in LPS-treated macrophages but decreased after miR-511-3p treatment. Consistent with these findings, C3 expression was elevated in the lung macrophages of an asthma mouse model but decreased in mice treated with miR-511-3p. Further experiments, including miRNA-mRNA pulldown and luciferase reporter assays, confirmed that miR-511-3p directly binds to C3 and activates the C3 gene. Thus, miR-511-3p represents a promising therapeutic target for asthma, and RNA nanotechnology reprogrammed EVs are efficient carriers for miRNA delivery for disease treatment.
