Project description:MicroRNA expression in the mouse eye.MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of biological processes. To define miRNA function in the eye, it is essential to determine a high-resolution profile of their spatial and temporal distribution. In this report, we present the first comprehensive survey of miRNA expression in ocular tissues, using both microarray and RNA in situ hybridization (ISH) procedures. We initially determined the expression profiles of miRNAs in the retina, lens, cornea and retinal pigment epithelium of the adult mouse eye by microarray. Each tissue exhibited notably distinct miRNA enrichment patterns and cluster analysis identified groups of miRNAs that showed predominant expression in specific ocular tissues or combinations of them. Next, we performed RNA ISH for over 220 miRNAs, including those showing the highest expression levels by microarray, and generated a high-resolution expression atlas of miRNAs in the developing and adult wild-type mouse eye, which is accessible in the form of a publicly available web database. We found that 122 miRNAs displayed restricted expression domains in the eye at different developmental stages, with the majority of them expressed in one or more cell layers of the neural retina . This analysis revealed miRNAs with differential expression in ocular tissues and provided a detailed atlas of their tissue-specific distribution during development of the murine eye. The combination of the two approaches offers a valuable resource to decipher the contributions of specific miRNAs and miRNA clusters to the development of distinct ocular structures. microRNA profiling of ocular tissues from mouse. In particular we analysed the cornea, lens, Retina Pigment Epithelium (RPE) and retina and compared them against RNA extracted from the entire eye. The purpose of this experiment was to understand which microRNAs are present nd/or show differential expression in the various structures of the eye (cornea, lens, RPE, retina). The samples numbered 1 & 2 (i.e. CORNEA1, CORNEA2 etc ) are biological replicates, prepared from tissues dissecyed from different groups of wild-type animals. RNA extracted from the entire eye (EYE) served as the unique reference sample. For each tissue to be analysed we performed the following hybridizations: - 2 slides for lens (LENS1, LENS2) vs entire eye (EYE) - 2 slides for RPE (RPE1, RPE2) vs entire eye (EYE) - 2 slides for retina (RETINA1, RETINA2) vs entire eye (EYE) - 2 slides for cornea (CORNEA1, CORNEA2) vs entire eye (EYE) - 1 slide for entire eye (EYE) vs entire eye (EYE)

Project description:Liver is uniquely capable to repair itself after injury. Multiple molecular and biochemical processes initiated after partial hepatectomy, lead to proliferation of all cells within the liver. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of highly abundant non-coding RNA molecules that cause post-transcriptional gene repression and are involved in several biological processes including cell cycle regulation and differentiation. We examined the expression levels of miRNAs in liver tissue received from control mice (L0) and compared them with the corresponding levels in liver tissue 12 hours after liver regeneration induced by 2/3 partial hepatectomy (L12). MicroRNA expression was investigated using microRNA profiling. Further qPCR analysis was used for validation of the differentially expressed microRNAs at an early stage of liver regeneration, induced by 2/3 partial hepatectomy. TargetScan and Gene Ontology (GO) analysis was performed in order to identify the possible miRNA target genes and their ontology, respectively. A subset of miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed during liver regeneration. Mmu-miR-21 and mmu-miR-30b* showed the higher levels of up-regulation in liver tissue from the hepatectomized mice at the end of the experiment (L12) compared to the sham operated mice (L0). Mmu-miR-21 up-regulation was further confirmed by qPCR. In situ hybridization (ISH) revealed that mmu-miR-21 exhibited the higher levels of expression at 12 hours post hepatectomy. On the contrary, mmu-miR-34c*, mmu-miR-144, mmu-miR-207, mmu-miR-207, mmu-miR-451, mmu-miR-582-3p and mmu-miR-290-5p exhibited <0.5 down-regulation in liver tissue after partial hepatectomy in L12 vs. L0 mice. Microarrays and qPCR results were in good agreement (Pearson correlation = 0.881). Our results provide important information regarding how microRNAs are deferentially expressed in murine liver tissue before and after partial hepatectomy. The early up-regulation of mmu-miR-21 during the process of liver regeneration suggests a regulatory role in liver regeneration in vivo. Twenty male wild type mice C57BL6J (8 weeks old) fed a standard diet were used for the liver regeneration experiment. Mice were housed in the animal facility of the University of Patras Medical School in temperature-, light- and humidity-controlled rooms with a 12-h light/dark cycle. All animal procedures were approved by the institutional review board of the University of Patras Medical School and were in accordance with EC Directive 86/609/EEC. A 2/3 partial hepatectomy (PH) was performed on 10 mice according to a recently published standardized protocol whereby the median and left lobes of the liver were removed and another 10 sham operated mice were used as the control group. The liver was allowed to regenerate and mice were sacrificed 12 hours after operation. Liver samples were collected from the sham operated mice (L0) and the hepatectomized mice at the end of the experiment (L12).
