The effect of Dicer knockdown on the transcriptional expression profile of 3.10 mTEC cell line.


ABSTRACT: Dicer, also known as endoribonuclease Dicer or helicase with RNase motif, cleaves double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and pre-microRNA (pre-miRNA) into short mature double-stranded RNA fragments called small interfering RNA and microRNA, respectively. Medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) express close to 90% of the protein-coding genome, besides they play an important role to self-tolerance through the ectopic expression of peripheral tissue antigens (PTAs) in the thymus. MicroRNAs are potent post-transcriptional regulators in developmental switches, lineage commitment and gene expression regulation, but their role in representation of the immunological self in mature mTECs is not fully understood. So we used a Mus musculus mTEC cell line (mTEC 3.10) to knockdown Dicer transcript by means of siRNA transfection and then observe the effect of Dicer knockdown in the transcriptional profile of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) by means of oligo microarray hybridization. The Agilent oligo microarrays were used to determine the large scale mRNA transcriptional profiles of control or Dicer-knockdown 3.10 mTECs.
