Project description:Cutaneous melanoma is an increasingly common form of skin cancer. The molecular mechanisms regulating melanoma progression are not completely understood. We speculated that specific miRNAs may be involved in melanoma development. We compared the miRNA expression profiles of benign nevi and metastatic melanomas. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering demonstrated a distinct miRNA expression pattern in metastatic melanomas compared to nevi. We identified miRNAs that were differentially expressed in melanoma. Notably, miR-193b was significantly down-regulated in the melanoma tissue examined. Using functional studies we demonstrated that over-expression of miR-193b significantly reduced melanoma cell proliferation, and arrested cell at G1 phase. Further gene expression analysis revealed that miR-193b regulated targets involved in cell cycle. Cyclin D1 was down-regulated by miR-193b at both the mRNA and protein level. This is the first study to show that the miR-193b may reduce cell proliferation by directly repressing cyclin D1. Overall, our study suggests that miRNAs are dysregulated in metastatic melanoma, and that miR-193b may play an important role in melanoma. 8 benign nevi and 8 metastatic melanoma tissue samples were profiled by Agilent MicroRNA Microarray (V1.5).

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have important roles in gene regulation. Dysregulation of miRNAs has been associated with tumorigenesis. Recent studies suggest miR-193b is a tumor suppressor gene. In a previous study, we reported that miR-193b represses cell proliferation and regulates cyclin D1 (CCND1) in melanoma. Now we demonstrate that miR-193b regulates myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1 (Mcl-1) in melanoma cells. miRNA microarray profiling revealed the miR-193b level in malignant melanomas was significantly downregulated compared to benign nevi, while a tissue microarray demonstrated overexpression of Mcl-1 in malignant melanoma. The Mcl-1 expressions were inversely correlated with the miR-193b levels in melanoma tissue samples, suggesting a potential regulatory role of miR-193b. Overexpression of miR-193b repressed Mcl-1 in melanoma cell lines. It is well known that Mcl-1 knockdown confers cell sensitivity to ABT-737, a small molecular inhibitor of Bcl-2, Bcl-XL and Bcl-w. We found miR-193b, through repressing Mcl-1 expression, could also sensitize melanoma cells that were refractory to ABT-737. Furthermore, miR-193b directly regulates Mcl-1 by targeting the 3â untranslated region (3âUTR) of Mcl-1 mRNA. Interestingly, miR-193b may recognize sequences on the 3âUTR that do not base pair with its seed region. In conclusion, our study suggests the downregulation of miR-193b could be an early event during melanoma progression, and demonstrates miR-193b directly regulates Mcl-1 by targeting both seed and seedless sequences of the 3â UTR. 15 primary melanoma samples, 8 metastatic melanomas and 8 benign nevi samples were profiled on Agilent miRNA array platform

We found miR-193b, through repressing Mcl-1 expression, could also sensitize melanoma cells that were refractory to ABT-737. Furthermore, miR-193b directly regulates Mcl-1 by targeting the 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR) of Mcl-1 mRNA. Interestingly, miR-193b may recognize sequences on the 3’UTR that do not base pair with its seed region. In conclusion, our study suggests the downregulation of miR-193b could be an early event during melanoma progression, and demonstrates miR-193b directly regulates Mcl-1 by targeting both seed and seedless sequences of the 3’ UTR.

Project description:Meningiomas are common intracranial tumors in adults. Abnormal miRNA expression plays a role in their pathogenesis. Change in miRNA expression level can be caused by impaired epigenetic regulation of miRNA-encoding genes. We found genomic region covering MIR193B gene as DNA hypermethylated in meningiomas based on analysis of genome-wide methylation (HM450k Illumina arrays). Hypermethylation of MIR193B was as also confirmed by bisulfite pyrosequencing. Both hsa-miR-193b-3p and hsa-miR-193b-5p are downregulated in meningiomas as found with qRT-PCR. Lower expression of hsa-miR-193b-3p and higher MIR193b methylation was observed in WHO GII/GIII as compared to GI meningiomas. 3’UTR of CCND1 mRNA was identified as target of hsa-miR-193b-3p as further validated with luciferase reporter assay in IOMM-Lee meningioma cells. IOMM-Lee cells transfected with hsa-miR-193b-3p mimic showed decreased cyclin D1 level and lower cell viability and proliferation, confirming suppressive nature of this miRNA. Cyclin D1 protein expression (immunoreactivity) was higher in atypical than in benign meningiomas, accordingly to observation of lower hsa-miR-193b-3p level in GII tumors. The commonly observed hypermethylation of MIR193B in meningiomas apparently contributes to downregulation of hsa-miR-193b-3p. Since hsa-miR-193b-3p regulates proliferation of meningioma cells through negative regulation of cyclin D1 expression, it seems to be an important tumor suppressor in meningiomas.

Project description:miRNAs are excellent tumor biomarkers because of their cell-type specificity and abundance. However, many miRNA detection methods, such as real-time (RT)-PCR, obliterate valuable visuospatial information in tissue samples. To enable miRNA visualization in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues, we developed multicolor miRNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). For proof-of-concept, we differentiated two skin tumors, namely Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), with overlapping histologic features but distinct cellular origins. Using sequencing-based miRNA profiling and discriminant analysis, we identified tumor-specific miRNAs (miR-205 and miR-375) in BCC and MCC respectively. We addressed three major shortcomings in miRNA FISH, identifying optimal conditions for miRNA fixation and rRNA retention using model compounds and HPLC analyses, enhancing signal amplification and detection by increasing probe-hapten linker lengths, and improving probe specificity using shortened probes with minimal rRNA sequence complementarity. We validated our method on 4 BCC and 12 MCC tumors. Amplified miR-205 and miR-375 signals were normalized against directly detectable reference rRNA signals. Tumors were classified using pre-defined cut-off values; all were correctly identified in blinded analysis. We established a reliable miRNA FISH technique for parallel visualization of differentially expressed miRNAs in FFPE tumor tissues 6 MCC samples 2 normal skin samples were profiled with Agilent miRNA array platform
