Objective: To investigate the role of miR-411-5p and miR-434-3p in osteoblast differentiation in particulate-induced osteolysis.

Methods: A mouse model of osteolysis and an in vitro osteolysis model were constructed. The expressions of molecules were detected using qRT-PCR and western blot. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was measured using the ALP Assay Kit, and the bone mineralization was measured using alizarin red staining.

Results: The expression of miR-411-5p and miR-434-3p was decreased in osteolysis mice and UHMWPE-induced mMSCs, while GATA4 protein expression was increased. Over-expression of miR-411-5p and miR-434-3p up-regulated the expressions of osteoblast gene markers, enhanced the ALP activity, promoted the bone mineralization of mesenchymal stem cells. In addition, miR-411-5p and miR-434-3p could target GATA4, and miR-411-5p/434-3p affected the expressions of osteoblast gene markers through GATA4 in vitro and in vivo.

Conclusion: Overexpression of miR-411-5p and miR-434-3p promoted the osteoblast differentiation by inhibiting GATA4 expression.

Aflatoxin B (AFB ) is a potent human and animal hepatocarcinogen. To investigate the effects of aflatoxin on miRNA expression during the initiation phase of carcinogenesis, next-generation sequencing was used to analyze liver tissues from F344 rats exposed to 200 μg/kg per day AFB for 4 week. A panel of miRNAs was identified that was upregulated with AFB treatment compared to controls: rno-miR-434-3p, rno-miR-411-5p, rno-miR-221-3p, rno-miR-127-3p, rno-miR-205, rno-miR-429, rno-miR-34a-5p, rno-miR-181c-3p, rno-miR-200b-3p, and rno-miR-541-5p.
