Glucose-induced augmented vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production is
a key event in diabetic retinopathy. We have previously demonstrated that
downregulation of miR-200b increases VEGF, mediating structural and functional
changes in the retina in diabetes. However, mechanisms regulating miR-200b in
diabetes are not known. Histone methyltransferase complex, Polycomb Repressive
Complex 2 (PRC2), has been shown to repress miRNAs in neoplastic process. We
hypothesized that, in diabetes, PRC2 represses miR-200b through its histone H3
lysine-27 trimethylation mark. We show that human retinal microvascular
endothelial cells exposed to high levels of glucose regulate miR-200b repression
through histone methylation and that inhibition of PRC2 increases miR-200b while
reducing VEGF. Furthermore, retinal tissue from animal models of diabetes showed
increased expression of major PRC2 components, demonstrating in vivo relevance.
This research established a repressive relationship between PRC2 and miR-200b,
providing evidence of a novel mechanism of miRNA regulation through histone
methylation.
