MRC-5 Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_0440
In-vivo Model For the mouse model of miR-320a-3p overexpression, a total of 24 male C57BL/6 mice were divided randomly into four groups (n = 6 in each group): saline, silica, silica plus AAV9-miR-NC, and silica plus AAV9-miR-320a-3p. The mice in the silica plus AAV9-miR-NC/AAV9-miR-320a-3p groups were anesthetized using the same method, then administered intratracheally 50 uL AAV9-miR-NC/AAV9-miR-320a-3p per mouse at a titer of 8 × 1012 v. g./ml. Three weeks later, these mice were treated in the same way using anesthesia, saline, and silica as mentioned above. Subsequently, after 4 weeks, the mice were sacrificed, and the lungs were isolated and frozen at -80 ℃ for further study.
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 6 (KCNH6)
In total 2 item(s) under this target gene
Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A-centered Disease Response by This Target Gene [3]
Response Summary Lowering m6A levels through silencing METTL3 suppresses the FMT process in vitro and in vivo. m6A modification regulates EMT by modulating the translation of Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 6 (KCNH6) mRNA in a YTHDF1-dependent manner. Manipulation of m6A modification through targeting METTL3 becomes a promising strategy for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Responsed Disease Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [ICD-11: CB03.4]

Target Regulation Up regulation
In-vitro Model WI-38 Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_0579
HEK293T Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_0063
In-vivo Model Animals were bred and housed in the pathogen-free facility of the Laboratory Animal Center of Shanghai General Hospital (Shanghai, China). All lungs were collected 4 weeks after BLM treatment for histology and further study. Lung microsections (5 uM) were applied to Masson's trichrome and Sirius red staining to visualize fibrotic lesions.

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A-centered Disease Response by This Target Gene [4]
Response Summary m6A modification of pri-miRNA-126 and its binding with DGCR8 decreases blocked microRNA 126 (MIR126) maturation, and then activated the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, which drove the fibro genesis in the lung after CB exposure.
