BACKGROUND/AIMS: The role of the RhoA/Rho kinase signaling pathway in diabetes mellitus-induced erectile dysfunction has been partially understood.
METHODS: In the present study, we explored the changes of the RhoA/Rho associated kinase (ROCK) signaling pathway in diabetic erectile dysfunction in vivo and the effects of microRNA-141 on the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway in vitro.
RESULTS: The mRNA and protein expressions of RhoA and ROCK2 were significantly increased while the expression of microRNA-141 was decreased in the penile cavernous smooth muscle cells of rats with diabetic erectile dysfunction. Moreover, increased expression of microRNA-141, decreased expressions of RhoA and ROCK2 (mRNA and protein), accelerated cell proliferation rate and reduced cell apoptosis were found in the microRNA-141 mimics group and the siRNA-Rho group. The microRNA-141 expression in the microRNA-141 inhibitors + siRNA-Rho group was significantly decreased. microRNA-141 specifically bound to Rho-3'-UTR and down-regulated the expression of Rho gene at the post transcriptional level.
CONCLUSION: Decreased expression of miR-141 is associated with up-regulation of RhoA and ROCK2 in the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway in rats with diabetic erectile dysfunction. miR-141 inhibits the growth of penile cavernous smooth muscle cells associated with down-regulation of the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway in vitro.
