Sepsis, resulting from infections, is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome with a high fatality rate. The present study revolves around probing into the function and molecular mechanism of long non-coding RNA OIP5 antisense RNA 1 (lncRNA OIP5-AS1) in modulating acute lung injury (ALI) mediated by sepsis. Here, a sepsis model was constructed using cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) surgery in vivo. The alveolar macrophage cell line NR8383 and the alveolar type II cell line RLE-6TN were dealt with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for in-vitro experiments. We discovered that OIP5-AS1 and Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) were markedly down-regulated in sepsis models elicited by CLP or LPS, while miR-128-3p experienced a dramatic up-regulation. OIP5-AS1 overexpression attenuated NR8383 and RLE-6TN cell apoptosis triggered by LPS and suppressed the expressions of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in NR8383 and RLE-6TN cells, whereas miR-128-3p overexpression resulted in the opposite phenomenon. Moreover, OIP5-AS1 overexpression relieved lung edema, lung epithelial cell apoptosis, infiltration of myeloperoxidase (MPO)-labeled polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN), inflammatory responses triggered by CLP in vivo. Mechanistically, miR-128-3p, which targeted SIRT1, was hobbled by OIP5-AS1. All in all, OIP5-AS1 overexpression enhanced sepsis-induced ALI by modulating the miR-128-3p/SIRT1 pathway, which helps create new insights into sepsis treatment.
