Mechanism: | In conclusion, this study identifies tsRNA-0032 as a critical regulator of LEC function and lymphangiogenesis. We demonstrate that tsRNA-0032 significantly inhibits LEC proliferation, migration, tube formation, and sprouting in vitro. These inhibitory effects were further validated by in vivo model. Mechanistically, tsRNA-0032 was found to interact with Ago2 and target the glycolytic enzyme PKM2, thereby disrupting glycolytic reprogramming in LECs. These findings underscore the therapeutic potential of targeting tsRNA-0032/PKM2 axis in diseases involving pathological lymphangiogenesis. |
