Pulmonary tuberculosis biomarker miR-215-5p inhibits autophagosome-lysosome fusion in macrophages - 01/12/23
, Jianhua Zhang a, ⁎ Abstract |
The normal autophagy flux is beneficial for the rapid elimination of phagocytic pathogens by macrophages. However, Mycobacterium tuberculosis interferes with the autophagy flux of macrophages to weaken their immune function and evade immune surveillance. In this study, we found that miRNA-215-5p was downregulated in tuberculosis patients. A potential diagnostic model for tuberculosis was established by combining miRNA-215-5p with three others differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNA-145-5p, miRNA-486-5p and miRNA-628-3p). Furthermore, we discovered that the up-regulated miRNA-215-5p could inhibit the maturation of autophagy by preventing the fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes in macrophages. The role of TB-specific miRNA-215-5p in inhibiting auto-lysosome formation provides evidence of its potential role in Host-directed therapy for tuberculosis.
