Transcription profiling of mouse Dicer-null cell lines vs. wt ES cells and Dicer-null cell lines vs. Dicer-null cells overexpressing Dnmt1 or Dnmt3a/3b

ABSTRACT: Dicer initiates RNA interference by generating small RNAs involved in various silencing pathways. Dicer participates in centromeric silencing, but its role in the epigenetic regulation of other chromatin domains has not been explored. Here we show that Dicer1 deficiency in Mus musculus leads to decreased DNA methylation, concomitant with increased telomere recombination and telomere elongation. These DNA-methylation defects correlate with decreased expression of Dnmt1, Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b DNA methyltransferases (Dnmts), and methylation levels can be recovered by their overexpression. We identify the retinoblastoma-like 2 protein (Rbl2) as responsible for decreased Dnmt expression in Dicer1-null cells, suggesting the existence of Dicer-dependent small RNAs that target Rbl2. We identify the miR-290 cluster as being downregulated in Dicer1-deficient cells and show that it silences Rbl2, thereby controlling Dnmt expression. These results identify a pathway by which miR-290 directly regulates Rbl2-dependent Dnmt expression, indirectly affecting telomere-length homeostasis. Experiment Overall Design: Two-condition experiments. 6 comparisons. One dye-swap technical replicate for all samples. 2-color platform.

DICER-interacting partners in juvenile mouse testes

Project description:DICER has a well-characterized role in the processing of microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNA) that are important for post-transcriptional gene regulation. Emerging evidence suggests that DICER also has several non-canonical functions beyond miRNA/siRNA biogenesis, for example in transcriptional gene silencing at the chromatin level, as well as in RNA degradation and maintenance of genomic integrity. We have shown that the function of DICER in germ cells is essential for normal spermatogenesis; male mice lacking DICER in postnatal male germ cells are infertile due to severe defects in haploid differentiation. To better understand the function of DICER in male germ cells, we immunoprecipitated DICER from juvenile mouse testes and performed mass spectrometric analysis to identify DICER-interacting proteins.

DICER controls macrophage polarization and tumor response to immunotherapy

Project description:Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have immunosuppressive capacity in mouse models of cancer. Here we show that the genetic deletion of the microRNA (miRNA)-processing enzyme DICER in TAMs broadly programs them to a CD11c+MRC1â/low M1-like immunostimulatory phenotype characterized by activated interferon-Î³ (IFN-Î³)/STAT1/IRF signaling. M1-like TAM programming fostered the recruitment of cytotoxic T-cells (CTLs), including tumor-antigen-specific CTLs, inhibited tumor growth, and enhanced the efficacy of PD1 checkpoint blockade. Bioinformatics analysis of TAM transcriptomes identified a limited set of miRNAs putatively involved in TAM programming. Re-expression of Let-7 in Dicer-deficient TAMs was sufficient to partly rescue the M2-like (protumoral) TAM phenotype and abate tumor CTL infiltration. Targeted suppression of DICER activity in TAMs may, therefore, stimulate antitumor immunity and enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. To explore the role of DICER in the development, activation and immunological functions of TAMs, we crossed homozygous LysM-Cre (Clausen et al., 1999) with Dicerlox/lox (Harfe et al., 2005) mice to obtain mice with myeloid-cell-specific Dicer1 gene deletion (LysM-Cre;Dicerâ/â, referred to as Dâ/â). These mice were then backcrossed to LysM-Cre to obtain the control LysM-Cre; Dicer+/+ mice (referred to as D+/+). Both LysM-Cre and Dicerlox/lox mutations were always homozygous in our experiment. We then inoculated Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells subcutaneously (s.c.) in Dâ/â and control D+/+ mice. Once the tumors were established, we isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) tumor-associated macrophages (F4/80+ cells).

Phosphoproteomic analysis of liver of Dicer knockout mice

Project description:Dicer is an essential ribonuclease involved in the biogenesis of miRNA. Previous studies have reported that Dicer is dysregulated in multiple types of cancers. To investigate the downstream phosphoproteome of Dicer, we carried out phosphotyrosine profiling of the liver of Dicer knockout of mice. We employed antibody-based enrichment of phosphotyrosine containing peptides coupled with spike-in SILAC-based quantitation. Over 400 phosphoisites were identified in each condition while 290 phosphosites were quantitated in common. Amongst these, several key signaling molecules like receptor tyrosine kinase MET, MET, PDGFR, EPHA2, EPHB4 and IGF1R/INSR were hyperphosphorylated. Also, non-receptor tyrosine kinases of Src family and their downstream effector signaling partners including IRS2 and STAT3were found to be hyperphosphorylated. Our study indicates that there is significant alteration in the signaling pathways upon ablation of Dicer.

In vivo structure-function analysis of human Dicer reveals directional processing of precursor miRNAs

Project description:Dicer is an RNase III-family endoribonuclease and haploinsufficient tumor suppressor that is required for the biogenesis of miRNAs, yet in vivo structure-function characterization of its RNase IIIA and IIIB domains have not been reported. In murine Dicer knockout fibroblasts, we expressed human Dicer with point mutations in the RNase III, helicase, and PAZ domains and characterized miRNA expression by Northern blot and massively parallel sequencing of small RNAs. Inactivation of the RNase IIIA or IIIB domain blocked maturation of miRNAs derived from the 3’ or 5’ arms of miRNA precursors, respectively, and resulted in altered miRNA expression profiles. Small RNAs from murine mesenchymal stem cells (MScs) with and without Dicer (WT:Dicer f/f, KO:Dicer -/-, KO transfected with various hsDicer point mutants) were analyzed.

Proliferation and Tumorigenesis of a Murine Sarcoma Cell Line in the Absence of Dicer

Project description:MicroRNAs are a class of short ~22 nucleotide RNAs predicted to regulate nearly half of all protein-coding genes, including many involved in basal cellular processes and organismal development. Although both increases and decreases in the levels of specific miRNAs have been shown to promote tumor development, a global reduction in miRNAs is commonly observed in various human tumors. However, complete loss has not been documented, suggesting an essential function for miRNAs in tumorigenesis. Here we present the finding that transformed or immortalized Dicer-null somatic cells can be isolated readily in vitro, maintain the characteristics of Dicer-expressing controls and remain stably proliferative. Furthermore, Dicer-null cells from a sarcoma cell line, though depleted of miRNAs, are competent for tumor formation. Hence, miRNA levels in cancer may be maintained in vivo by a complex stabilizing selection in the intratumoral environment. Small RNAs from tumor cell lines (murine sarcoma KrasG12D, p53 -/-) with and without Dicer (Dicer f/-, Dicer -/-) were analyzed.

Metformin Induces Dicer via Regulation of the RNA-binding protein AUF1

Project description:Metformin has been commonly used for decades to treat type 2 diabetes. Recent data indicates that mice treated with metformin live longer and healthier lives. Here, we show that chronic metformin exposure in mice and diabetics taking metformin have higher levels of the microRNA processing protein, Dicer. Examination of how metformin affects Dicer expression revealed that metformin alters binding of the AUF1 RNA-binding protein to DICER1 mRNA, which leads to stabilization of DICER1 mRNA. We found differential changes in microRNA expression in mice treated with metformin or caloric restriction, a proven life extending intervention. Several of these microRNAs are important for regulating cellular senescence and lifespan in model organisms. Consistent with this observation, treatment with metformin decreased cellular senescence in a Dicer-dependent manner. These data lead us to hypothesize that changes in Dicer levels may be important for organismal aging and that interventions that upregulate Dicer expression (e.g., metformin) may offer new therapeutic approaches to combat or prevent age-related diseases. Key words: diabetes mellitus, metformin, senescence, miRNA, RNA-binding proteins
