The sea cucumber is an economically important aquaculture species in China, where it encounter hypo-saline conditions caused by freshwater outflow from rivers and rainfall. MicroRNAs (miRNA) are small noncoding RNAs of about 22 nucleotides, which are crucial regulators of gene expression at the post-transcriptional level and are involved in a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes. miR-10 is differentially expressed in salinity acclimation, and has a seed-region match with TBC1D5. The expression profiles of miR-10 and TBC1D5 indicate that miR-10 negatively regulates the expression of TBC1D5 in coelomocytes and sea cucumbers with a miR-10 agomir or antagomir. During salinity acclimation, up-regulation of miR-10 was induced after transfection in coelomocytes with a miR-10 inhibitor, while down-regulation of TBC1D5 was induced. The miR-10 expression maximum in coelomocytes appeared at 48 h post-transfection with a miR-10 inhibitor, was later than that of in sea cucumbers, which appeared 24 h after miR-10 antagomir injection. There was no longer a negative relationship between miR-10 and TBC1D5 expression in coelomocytes and sea cucumbers with miR-10 mimics or agomir during salinity acclimation. The miR-10 antagomir or agomir only affected sodium and NKA enzyme activities, and has little effect on other chloride and potassium ions. Our results demonstrate miR-10 directly regulates TBC1D5 by targeting its 3'-UTR, and that miR-10 suppression substantially increases TBC1D5 mRNA levels in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, miR-10 and TBC1D5 fluctuating expression patterns after treatment with a miR-10 inhibitor or mimics during salinity acclimation may indicate that they are required for adaptation to salinity stress caused by environmental change. Especially, the miR-10 up-regulation in coelomocytes with miR-10 inhibitor during salinity acclimation indicated that they are required for adaptation to salinity stress caused by environmental change. We propose that miR-10 participates in a regulatory circuit that allows for rapid gene program transitions in response to osmotic stress.
