Project description:The goal of this study was to investigate the generation and normalization of microRNA expression data based on microarray technologies to comparatively assess their quality. Two profiling platforms were compared: the single-channel Affymetrix GeneChip(r) and the Exiqon dual-channel miRCURY LNA(tm), which was processed as a single-channel array. Due to fundamental differences in the platform constitution, the normalization methods developed for gene expression need to be applied very cautiously to microRNA raw data. This motivated the development of a novel normalization method based on controllable assumptions, which uses the intensities of spike-in control probes. The results showed that the novel normalization method reduced the data variability in the most consistent way and confirmed the reliability of the differentially expressed microRNAs obtained, based on an RT-qPCR experiment performed for a subset of microRNAs. The conclusion was that the Exiqon platform combined with the novel spike-in controls based normalization method provides high-quality microRNA expression data suitable for reliable downstream analysis. This preprocessing pipeline was implemented into an R package called ExiMiR and deposited in the Bioconductor repository. Data generated in a sister experiment on the Affymetrix platform has been submitted to ArrayExpress under accession E-MTAB-875.

Project description:Sixth generation Exiqon® locked nucleic acid miRCURY™ LNA microarrays were used to profile in duplicate the expression of microRNAs in 250 or 400 ng of RNA isolated from a laser microdissectate of a formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human non-small cell lung cancer tumor. Laser microdissection was performed on a hematoxylin-eosin-stained, 8 um-thick section of formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue. The microdissectate was treated with proteinase K overnight at 55 ºC. Total RNA from the lysate was then extracted using FFPE RNA Isolation Kit from Norgen Biotek® (Thorold, Canada). RiboGreen assay was used to quantify RNA in the preparation. Two-hundred-fifty or 400 ng of RNA was used in duplicate for dual-channel microarray-based microRNA expression profiling. Sample RNA was labeled with the Cy3-like Hy3™ dye, mixed with a human universal reference RNA (product number AM6000, Ambion®, Austin, TX) labeled with the Cy5-like Hy5™ dye, and hybridized to the two-color miRCURY™ arrays.

Project description:Seventh generation Exiqon locked nucleic acid miRCURY LNA microarrays were used to profile the expression of microRNAs in whole blood of patients with lung cancer and of clinically relevant controls without the disease (individuals with non-cancerous lung nodule, at high risk for cancer because of heavy smoking, or with lung cancer treated by surgical resection). The goal was to examine if whole blood microRNAs can be used for developing a non-invasive assay to diagnose lung cancer. Using the PAXgene Blood miRNA kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA), total RNA was isolated from whole blood stabilized and stored in PAXgene Blood RNA tubes for 85 individuals with lung cancer, 59 individuals without the disease but at a high risk for the disease because of smoking, and 17 individuals with a non-cancerous pulmonary nodule. RNA was also isolated from 13 samples of blood of 12 of the lung cancer cases following surgery; blood samples were collected on two different days post-operatively for one of the cases (Sample names 157 and 160). The data-set here includes data (sample name 171) from a post-operative blood sample of an individual (who had the lung cancer removed by operation) for whom good array data was not obtained for RNA from a pre-operative blood sample. Two RNA samples were used to test technical duplicability of the microarray platform (pairs of sample names 59 & 192, and 175 & 182). Thus, a total of 162 unique individuals and 175 unique RNA samples are covered by this data-set. Isolated RNA was provided to Exiqon (Denmark) for microRNA quantification using microarrays. Quality and concentration of RNA in the samples was assessed by Nanodrop 2000 (Thermo Scientific, Wilmington, DE, USA) and Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA) instruments. Sample RNA (500 ng) was labeled with the Cy3-like Hy3 dye, mixed with 500 ng of a human universal reference RNA (product number AM6000, Ambion, Austin, TX, USA) that was labeled with the Cy5-like Hy5 dye, and hybridized to 7th generation miRCURY locked nucleic acid oligonucleotide microarrays. Sixty-two artificial small RNAs were spiked-in each RNA sample before labeling. disease state: Lung cancer (before surgical resection of lung cancer): 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 61, 63, 64, 65, 67, 68, 69, 70, 81, 82, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 149, 151, 153, 154, 156, 158, 165, 167, 174, 175, 176, 177, 179, 180, 181, 183, 184, 186, 187, 188, 189, 193 disease state: Non-cancerous lung nodule: 128, 129, 130, 131, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 140, 141, 142, 144, 145, 146, 148, 182, 190 disease state: None (after surgical resection of lung cancer): 155, 157, 159, 160, 161, 162, 163, 164, 166, 169, 170, 171, 172, 173 disease state: None (no current or past lung cancer or non-cancerous nodule): 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 192 individual: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 160, 161, 162

Project description:Sirt1, a NAD-dependent deacetylase, has been shown involved in many complex biological functions. We previously demonstrated that Sirt-1 gain of function is neuroprotective in a model of neurodegenenration. We recently found that Sirt1 loss of function (Sirt1Î mouse) impairs learning, memory, and synaptic plasticity. We used microarray screening to identify potential miRNAs that may be regulated by Sirt1 and ivolved in learning and memory. Total RNA from the hippocampus of SIRT1Î and control mice was extracted and used for microRNA expression level evaluation. Two group experiment, in duplicates. Each sample is compared to a common reference sample, comprised of an equal mixture of all 4 experimental samples.

Project description:To determine if the Drosophila MyoD homolog, nautilus, was activating any miRNA loci, similar to vertebrate MyoD, we compared the miRNA expression profiles between wild-type (w1118) and nautilus null embryos during the window of maximum nautilus expression (6-8hr AEL), using LNA arrays specifically designed to quantify miRNA levels in Drosophila (Exiqon). Expression levels for mir-309, mir-3, mir-286, mir-4, mir-5, and mir-6 from the 8-miR cluster, were significantly decreased in nautilus null embryos. It suggests that the intergenic 8-miR cluster, encoding eight miRNAs, is regulated by nautilus. Two-condition experiment, wild type (w1118) vs. mutant (nautilus null). Biological replicates: 3 wild type, 3 mutants, independently isolated.

Project description:Despite advance in interferon-based treatment for chronic hepatitis C, difficult-to-treat patients remain in existence yet. To identify key genes involved in difficult-to-treat characteristics, gene expression patterns of miRNA and RNA were analyzed by profiling pretreatment liver tissues from five sustained virological responders (SVR), three relapsers (R) and four non-responders (NR). Expression levels of miRNA and mRNA were compared between SVR/R and NR groups by using microarray, respectively. Quantitative real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and statistical analyses validated genes with significantly differential expression levels in 50 liver tissues: proliferation-, inflammation- and anti-apoptosis-related mRNA expression levels increased significantly in NR, compared to SVR/R. Of miRNA with significantly differential expression levels on microarray, several miRNA were correlated inversely with those significant mRNA. In vitro studies by using miRNA inhibitors and mimics verified the inverse correlation between the miRNA and mRNA. These findings enhance our understanding of the difficult-to-treat molecular mechanism and identification of target molecules for novel treatments. Moderated t-statistics based on the empirical Bayes approach were performed to identify miRNA differentially expressed between SVRs/relapses and NVRs using the M-bM-^@M-^\limmaM-bM-^@M-^] package from BioConductor software (http://www.bioconductor.org/) under R statistical software version 2.12.1 (http://www.r-project.org/). Because of multiple hypothesis testing, p values were adjusted by the Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate (FDR) method. Related mRNA expression data are in GSE42697.

Project description:Although gain of chromosome-5p is one of the most frequent DNA copy number imbalances in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the genes that drive its selection remain poorly understood. In a previous cross-sectional clinical study we showed that the microRNA processor Drosha (located on chromosome-5p) demonstrates frequent copy-number gain and over-expression in cervical SCC, associated with altered microRNA profiles. Here, we have conducted gene depletion/over-expression experiments to demonstrate the functional significance of up-regulated Drosha in cervical SCC cells. Drosha depletion by RNA-interference (RNAi) produced significant, specific reductions in cell motility/invasiveness in vitro, with a silent RNAi-resistant Drosha mutation providing phenotype rescue. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering following global profiling of 319 microRNAs in eighteen cervical SCC cell line specimens generated two groups according to Drosha expression levels. Altering Drosha levels in individual SCC lines changed the group into which the cells clustered, with gene depletion effects being rescued by the RNAi-resistant mutation. Forty-five microRNAs showed significant differential expression between the groups, including four of fourteen that were differentially-expressed in association with Drosha levels in clinical samples. miR-31 up-regulation in Drosha over-expressing samples/cell lines was the highest-ranked change (by adjusted p-value) in both analyses, an observation validated by Northern blotting. These functional data support the role of Drosha as an oncogene in cervical SCC, by affecting expression of cancer-associated microRNAs that have the potential to regulate numerous protein-coding genes. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE26175: Functional evidence that Drosha over-expression in cervical squamous cell carcinoma affects cell phenotype and microRNA profiles [miRNA] GSE26176: Functional evidence that Drosha over-expression in cervical squamous cell carcinoma affects cell phenotype and microRNA profiles [mRNA] Refer to individual Series
