Sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the important causes of increased mortality in sepsis patients. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is believed to play a vital function in the progression of AKI. However, the mechanism of nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) has not been fully elucidated. NEAT1 was overexpressed and miR-22-3p was underexpressed in sepsis patients and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced AKI cell models. Knockdown of NEAT1 could promote viability and suppress apoptosis and the inflammatory response in LPS-induced HK2 cells. MiR-22-3p could be sponged by NEAT1, and its inhibitor reversed the inhibition effect of NEAT1 silencing on LPS-induced HK2 cell injury. CXCL12 could be targeted by miR-22-3p, and its overexpression reversed the suppression effect of miR-22-3p on LPS-induced HK2 cell injury. Silenced NEAT1 could restrain the activity of the NF-B signaling pathway, and miR-22-3p inhibitor or CXCL12 overexpression could reverse this effect. In addition, NEAT1 knockdown alleviated the inflammation response of cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) mouse models. In summary, our data showed that NEAT1 promoted LPS-induced HK2 cell injury via regulating the miR-22-3p/CXCL12/NF-B signaling pathway, suggesting that NEAT1 knockdown might be a potential pathway for alleviating sepsis-induced AKI.
