Background Asthma is a serious respiratory disease that afects the physical and mental health of children. Airway epithelial apoptosis concomitantly mediated by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) is a crucial component of asthma pathogenesis. LncRNA growth Arrest Specifc 5 (GAS5), microRNA-217 (miR-217) and Histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) shown a close relationship with TGF-β1-induced injury of airway epithelial. However, the mechanism underlying TGF-β1-induced injury of airway epithelial in asthma still needs to be investigated. Objective We aimed to investigate the efect and underlying mechanism of GAS5/miR-217/HDAC4 axis in TGF-β1- stimulated bronchial epithelial cells. Methods The levels of were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). All protein levels were determined by western blot. Cell viability and apoptosis rate were assessed by Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) and Flow cytometry, respectively. The targeting relationship between miR-217 and GAS5 or HDAC4 was examined with dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results TGF-β1, GAS5, HDAC4 were up-regulated, while miR-217 was down-regulated in bronchial mucosal tissues of asthmatic children and TGF-β1-treated BEAS-2B cells. TGF-β1 could reduce cell viability and induce apoptosis, while these efects could be reversed by downregulation of GAS5 or HDAC4. Mechanically, GAS5 acted as a sponge for miR-217 to regulate the expression of HDAC4. Furthermore, overexpression of HDAC4 rescued the efects of GAS5 knockdown on viability and apoptosis of TGF-β1-induced BEAS-2B cells. GAS5 knockdown induced cell viability and hampered cell apoptosis in TGF-β1-stimulated BEAS-2B cells by regulating the miR-217/HDAC4 axis. Conclusions The lncRNA GAS5/miR-217/HDAC4 axis played an important role in regulating TGF-β1-induced bronchial epithelial cells injury, thus contributing to asthma.
