Zusammenfassung:Increasing evidence has demonstrated that circular RNA (circRNA) exerts important function in the pathogenesis of some diseases. While, the contributions of circRNAs to aseptic loosening after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remain largely unknown. Our research is to explore the differentially expressed circRNAs (DEcircRNAs) and elucidate complex regulated mechanism of circRNAs in aseptic loosening. The DEcircRNAs were identified by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was adopted to corroborate these DEcircRNAs. The potential function of circRNAs in aseptic loosening tissue was identified by competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) analysis. Enrichment analysis was performed for target mRNAs and host genes of the DEcircRNAs by Gene Oncology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). 257 DEcircRNAs were obtained from RNA-seq results. Following the RT-qPCR corroboration, 6 circRNAs (hsa_circ_0007482, hsa_circ_0005232, hsa_circ_0000994, hsa_circ_0000690, hsa_circ_0058092 and hsa_circ_0004496) were selected for further analysis. By circRNA-miRNA and miRNA-mRNA prediction, 6 circRNAs, 138 miRNAs and 1667 mRNAs were identified. Then, circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was established. The result of GO and KEGG enrichment analysis suggested that the circRNAs were related with some biological functions and pathways of aseptic loosening. A novel pathogenesis and treatment strategy about aseptic loosening after THA was revealed from our study of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network.
