Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) play critical roles in synovial inflammation and aggression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Here, we explored the role of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 6 (eIF6) in regulating the biological behaviors of FLSs from patients with RA.
FLSs were isolated from the synovial tissues of RA patients. Gene expression was assessed via RT–qPCR, and protein expression was evaluated via Western blotting or immunohistochemistry. Proliferation and nascent peptide synthesis were evaluated via EdU incorporation and HPG labeling, respectively. Cell migration and invasion were observed via Transwell assays. Polysome profiling was conducted to analyze the distribution of ribosomes and combined mRNAs. The in vivo effect of eIF6 inhibition was evaluated in a collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rat model.
We found that eIF6 expression was elevated in FLSs and synovial tissues from RA patients compared to those from healthy controls and osteoarthritis patients. Knockdown of eIF6 inhibited the migration, invasion, inflammation, and proliferation of FLSs from patients with RA. Mechanistically, eIF6 knockdown downregulated ribosome biogenesis in FLSs from with RA, leading to a decrease in the proportion of polysome-associated specificity protein 1 (SP1) mRNA and a subsequent reduction in the translation initiation efficiency of SP1 mRNA. Thus, eIF6 controls SP1 expression through translation-mediated mechanisms. Interestingly, intra-articular eIF6 siRNA treatment attenuated symptoms and histological manifestations in CIA rats.
Our findings suggest that an increase in synovial eIF6 might contribute to rheumatoid synovial inflammation and aggression and that targeting eIF6 may have therapeutic potential in RA patients. |
