Title MicroRNA-2355-5p regulates γ-globin expression in human erythroid cells by inhibiting KLF6.
Journal Br J Haematol
Abstract Krüppel-like factors (KLFs) are a highly conserved family of transcription factors. We analysed expression profile data of KLFs and identified KLF6 as a new potential regulator of erythropoiesis. Knocking down the expression of KLF6 significantly raised γ-globin mRNA and protein levels in the erythroid cell line HUDEP-2 and haematopoietic progenitor (CD34+ ) cells. We found that overexpression of microRNA (miR)-2355-5p in HUDEP-2 and CD34+ cells correlated with increased γ-globin synthesis by suppressing expression of KLF6. Our discovery that the interaction between miR-2355-5p and KLF6 affects the expression of γ-globin may provide more information for the clinical management of β-thalassaemia patients.
