MiRNAs were significantly regulated by myocardin and ERM-NM-1

ABSTRACT: Using microarray, we compared miRNAs expression profiles of MDA-MB-231 cells transfected with myocardin and empty vector (pcDNA3.1) and found that 25 miRNAs were significantly changed in myocardin-transfected groups (17 up-regulated and 9 down-regulated miRNAs). Moreover, we showed that 18 of 25 miRNAs significantly regulated by myocardin were inhibited by ERM-NM-1 in MDA-MB-231 cells. In addition,through a microarray approach, we identify the subset of miRNAs modulated by ERM-NM-1 in MDA-MB-231 cells. Our results determined that ERM-NM-1 may function as tumor-promoter through down-regulating expression of 3 miRNAs (miR-26b, miR-146a and miR-331-3p) in MDA-MB-231 cells. There are 4 samples in this experiment (pcDNA3.1-transfected, myocardin-transfected, ERM-NM-1-transfected, myocardin plus ERM-NM-1 co-transfecteded groups) and each sample was replicated 3 times. The vector-pcDNA3.1 was used as control.

Project description:ERM-NM-117p is a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence P295LMIKRSKKNSLALSLT311 of the estrogen receptor alpha (ERM-NM-1) and initially synthesized to mimic its calmodulin binding site. ERM-NM-117p was subsequently found to elicit estrogenic responses in E2-deprived ERM-NM-1-positive breast cancer cells, increasing proliferation and E2-dependent gene transcription. Surprisingly, in E2-supplemented media, ERM-NM-117p induced apoptosis and modified the actin network, influencing thereby cell motility. Here, we report that ERM-NM-117p induces a massive early (3h) transcriptional activity in breast cancer cell lines SKBR3). Remarkably, about 75% of the significantly modified transcripts were also modified by E2, confirming the pro-estrogenic profile of ERM-NM-117p. The different ER spectra of the used cell lines allowed us to extract a specific ERM-NM-117p signature related to ERM-NM-1 and its variant ERM-NM-136. With respect to ERM-NM-1, the peptide activates nuclear (cell cycle, cell proliferation, nucleic acid and protein synthesis) and extranuclear signaling pathways. In contrast, through ERM-NM-136 it exerts inhibitory events on inflammation and cell cycle and inhibition of EGFR signaling. This is the first work reporting ERM-NM-136 specific transcriptional effects. The fact that a number ERM-NM-117p-induced transcripts is different from those activated by E2 revealed that the apoptosis and actin modifying effects of ERM-NM-117p are independent from the ER-related actions of the peptide. Cells after a 4h incubation with medium containing 10% charcoal stripped FBS were incubated with or without E2 (10-6M) or ERa17p in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% charcoal stripped FBS, for 3 hours. Total RNA was isolated using Nucleospin II columns (Macheray-Nagel, Dttren, Germany), according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. RNA was labeled and hybridized according to the Affymetrix protocol (Affymetrix Gene-Chip Expression Analysis Technical Manual), using the HGU133A plus 2 chip, analyzing a total of 54675 transcripts. Signals were detected by an Affymetrix microarray chip reader.
