Construction and analysis of cardiac hypertrophy-associated lncRNA-mRNA network based on competitive endogenous RNA reveal functional lncRNAs in cardiac hypertrophy.

ABSTRACT: Cardiac hypertrophy (CH) could increase cardiac after-load and lead to heart failure. Recent studies have suggested that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) played a crucial role in the process of the cardiac hypertrophy, such as Mhrt, TERMINATOR. Some studies have further found a new interacting mechanism, competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA), of which lncRNA could interact with micro-RNAs (miRNA) and indirectly interact with mRNAs through competing interactions. However, the mechanism of ceRNA regulated by lncRNA in the CH remained unclear. In our study, we generated a global triple network containing mRNA, miRNA and lncRNA, and extracted a CH related lncRNA-mRNA network (CHLMN) through integrating the data from starbase, miRanda database and gene expression profile. Based on the ceRNA mechanism, we analyzed the characters of CHLMN and found that 3 lncRNAs (SLC26A4-AS1, RP11-344E13.3 and MAGI1-IT1) were high related to CH. We further performed cluster module analysis and random walk with restart for the CHLMN, finally 14 lncRNAs had been discovered as the potential CH related disease genes. Our results showed that lncRNA played an important role in the CH and could shed new light to the understanding underlying mechanisms of the CH.

Project description:BackgroundA growing evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can function as a microRNA (miRNA) sponge in various diseases including oral cancer. However, the pathophysiological function of lncRNAs remains unclear.MethodsBased on the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) theory, we constructed a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network in oral cancer with the human expression profiles GSE74530 from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. We used topological analysis to determine the hub lncRNAs in the regulatory ceRNA network. Then, function enrichment analysis was performed using the clusterProfiler R package. Clinical information was downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and survival analysis was performed with Kaplan-Meier analysis.ResultsA total of 238 potential co-dysregulated competing triples were obtained in the lncRNA-associated ceRNA network in oral cancer, which consisted of 10 lncRNA nodes, 41 miRNA nodes and 122 mRNA nodes. Additionally, we found lncRNA HCG22 exhibiting superior potential as a diagnostic and prognostic marker of oral cancer.ConclusionsOur findings provide novel insights to understand the ceRNA regulation in oral cancer and identify a novel lncRNA as a potential molecular biomarker.

Reconstruction of the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network based on competitive endogenous RNA reveal functional lncRNAs in Cerebral Infarction.

Project description:Functioning as miRNA sponges, long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) exert its pharmacological action via regulating expression of protein-coding genes. However, the lncRNA-mediated ceRNA in cerebral Infarction (CI) remains unclear. In this study, the expression recordsets of mRNA, lncRNA and miRNA of CI samples were obtained from the NCBI GEO datasets separately. The differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs), miRNAs (DEMis) and mRNAs (DEMs) were identified by limma package in R platform. A total of 267 DELs, 26 DEMis, and 760 DEMs were identified as differentially expressed profiles, with which we constructed the ceRNA network composed of DELs-DEMis-DEMs. Further, clusterProfiler package in R platform is employed for performing Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analysis. An aberrant ceRNA network was constructed according to node degrees in CI, including 28 DELs, 19 DEMs and 12 DEMis, from which we extracted the core network, in which 9 nodes were recognized as kernel genes including Tspan3, Eif4a2, rno-miR-208a-3p, rno-miR-194-5p, Pdpn, H3f3b, Stat3, Cd63 and Sdc4. Finally, with the DELs-DEMis-DEMs ceRNA network provided above, we can improve our understanding of the pathogenesis of CI mediated by lncRNA.

Reconstruction and Analysis of the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA Network Based on Competitive Endogenous RNA Reveal Functional lncRNAs in Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

Project description:Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an important cause of sudden death and heart failure with an unknown etiology. Recent studies have suggested that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) can interact with microRNA (miRNA) and indirectly interact with mRNA through competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) activities. However, the mechanism of ceRNA in DCM remains unclear. In this study, a miRNA array was first performed using heart samples from DCM patients and healthy controls. For further validation, we conducted real-time quantitative reverse transcription (RT)-PCR using samples from DCM patients and a doxorubicin-induced rodent model of cardiomyopathy, revealing that miR-144-3p and miR-451a were down-regulated, and miR-21-5p was up-regulated. Based on the ceRNA theory, we constructed a global triple network using data from the National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus (NCBI-GEO) and our miRNA array. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network comprised 22 lncRNA nodes, 32 mRNA nodes, and 11 miRNA nodes. Hub nodes and the number of relationship pairs were then analyzed, and the results showed that two lncRNAs (NONHSAT001691 and NONHSAT006358) targeting miR-144/451 were highly related to DCM. Then, cluster module and random walk with restart for the ceRNA network were analyzed and identified four lncRNAs (NONHSAT026953/NONHSAT006250/NONHSAT133928/NONHSAT041662) targeting miR-21 that were significantly related to DCM. This study provides a new strategy for research on DCM or other diseases. Furthermore, lncRNA-miRNA pairs may be regarded as candidate diagnostic biomarkers or potential therapeutic targets of DCM.

Reconstruction of lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network based on competitive endogenous RNA reveals functional lncRNAs in skin cutaneous melanoma.

Project description:BackgroundHuman skin cutaneous melanoma is the most common and dangerous skin tumour, but its pathogenesis is still unclear. Although some progress has been made in genetic research, no molecular indicators related to the treatment and prognosis of melanoma have been found. In various diseases, dysregulation of lncRNA is common, but its role has not been fully elucidated. In recent years, the birth of the "competitive endogenous RNA" theory has promoted our understanding of lncRNAs.MethodsTo identify the key lncRNAs in melanoma, we reconstructed a global triple network based on the "competitive endogenous RNA" theory. Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analysis were performed using DAVID (Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integration Discovery). Our findings were validated through qRT-PCR assays. Moreover, to determine whether the identified hub gene signature is capable of predicting the survival of cutaneous melanoma patients, a multivariate Cox regression model was performed.ResultsAccording to the "competitive endogenous RNA" theory, 898 differentially expressed mRNAs, 53 differentially expressed lncRNAs and 16 differentially expressed miRNAs were selected to reconstruct the competitive endogenous RNA network. MALAT1, LINC00943, and LINC00261 were selected as hub genes and are responsible for the tumorigenesis and prognosis of cutaneous melanoma.ConclusionsMALAT1, LINC00943, and LINC00261 may be closely related to tumorigenesis in cutaneous melanoma. In addition, MALAT1 and LINC00943 may be independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with this condition and might become predictive molecules for the long-term treatment of melanoma and potential therapeutic targets.

Identification of a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network based on competitive endogenous RNA theory reveals functional lncRNAs in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Project description:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an autosomal dominant disease that affects 1 in every 200 people in the general population, leading to cardiac ischemia, heart failure and increased risk of sudden death. Recently, accumulating evidence has suggested that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) may serve specific roles in various biological processes and participate in the pathology of various diseases, including HCM. Although a large number of lncRNAs have been detected, the functions of lncRNAs in HCM are still unknown. In the present study, a global triple network based on competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) theory was constructed using data from the National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus. Furthermore, Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses of mRNAs in the lncRNA-microRNA (miRNA)-mRNA network were performed using the Cytoscape plugins, BiNGO and Database. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was composed of 30 lncRNA nodes, 94 mRNA nodes and 8 miRNA nodes. Subsequently, hub nodes and the number of relationship pairs were analyzed and showed that 5 lncRNAs (ENST00000597346.1, ENST00000458178.1, ENST00000544461.1, ENST00000567093.1 and ENST00000571219.1) were closely related to HCM. Cluster module analysis and Random Walk with Restart of the ceRNA network further confirmed the potential role of two lncRNAs (ENST00000458178.1 and ENST00000567093.1) in HCM. The present study provides a new strategy for identifying potential pathways associated with HCM or other diseases. Furthermore, lncRNA-miRNA pairs may be regarded as candidate diagnostic biomarkers or potential therapeutic targets for HCM.

Construction and integrated analysis of a lncRNA-associated competing endogenous RNA network reveal functional lncRNAs in pancreatic cancer.

Project description:BackgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can serve as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in regulating gene expression in multiple cancers by sponging miRNA. However, this mechanism is poorly studied in pancreatic cancer. This study aims to identify functional lncRNAs and their potential regulatory mechanisms in pancreatic cancer.MethodsDifferentially expressed lncRNA (DE-lncRNA), miRNA (DE-miRNA) and mRNA (DE-mRNA) were analyzed using data from three datasets (GSE89139, GSE24279 and GSE62452) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interactions were predicted using miRcode and Targetscan. Gene ontology (GO) and pathway analysis of DE-mRNAs were performed using clusterProfiler. Survival analysis was conducted using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.ResultsThree hundred sixty-six DE-lncRNAs, 28 DE-miRNAs and 330 DE-mRNAs from pancreatic cancer and adjacent tissue were identified. A ceRNA network including 75 DE-lncRNAs, 18 DE-miRNAs and 85 DE-mRNAs was constructed, among which 16 DE-lncRNAs were associated with overall survival and 13 DE-lncRNAs were correlated with tumor progression. Three functional lncRNAs, GABPB1-AS1, ST7-AS1 and PSMG3-AS1, were identified as key functional lncRNAs, and their differential expression and potential ceRNA regulatory mechanism were validated by qPCR using pancreatic cancer cell lines and tissues.ConclusionsOur study identifies novel lncRNAs associated with progression and prognosis of pancreatic cancer and contributes to better understanding of lncRNA-associated ceRNA regulatory mechanisms in pancreatic cancer.

Construction of a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network to determine the regulatory roles of lncRNAs in psoriasis.

Project description:Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder that impairs the quality of life of affected patients. Emerging studies indicate that certain long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have important roles in psoriasis. However, the exact functions of lncRNAs and their regulatory mechanisms as competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) in psoriasis have remained to be fully elucidated. In the present study, differentially expressed lncRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs) and mRNAs were identified by analyzing public datasets, and a psoriasis-associated lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was constructed based on the ceRNA theory. Furthermore, previously validated abnormally expressed miRNAs in psoriasis were identified by a systematic literature search in the PubMed and Web of Science databases, and a specific miRNA-associated lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA sub-network was extracted. Furthermore, Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses were performed using DAVID 6.8. A total of 253 lncRNAs, 106 miRNAs and 1,156 mRNAs were identified as being differentially expressed between psoriasis skin and healthy control skin. The present study identified two key lncRNAs that may potentially have a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis: AL035425.3 and Prader Willi/Angelman region RNA 6. This integrative analysis enhances the understanding of the molecular mechanism of psoriasis and may provide novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of psoriasis.

Construction of a ceRNA-based lncRNA-mRNA network to identify functional lncRNAs in polycystic ovarian syndrome.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine and metabolic disorder in women of childbearing age. Recent studies suggest important roles for lncRNAs in PCOS development. Based on the hypothesis that lncRNAs are able to regulate mRNA functions by competitive binding to shared miRNAs, the present work sought to construct a PCOS-related lncRNA-mRNA network (PCLMN) to identify key lncRNAs with dysregulated expression and potential prognostic and therapeutic relevance. A global background network was constructed after retrieving lncRNA-miRNA and miRNA-mRNA pairs from the lncRNASNP2, miRTarBase and StarBase databases. Based on gene expression profiles from ovarian granulosa cells from PCOS patients and controls in the GEO's GSE95728 dataset, the PCLMN was then constructed by applying hypergeometric testing. Using topological analysis, we identified 3 lncRNAs (LINC00667, AC073172.1 and H19) ranking within the top-ten gene lists for all three centrality measures. We then explored their subcellular localization, performed functional module analyses, and identified 4 sex hormone-related transcription factors as potential regulators of their expression. Significant associations with inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis-related processes and pathways were revealed for the key lncRNAs in our PCMLN. Further studies verifying the mRNA/lncRNA relationships identified herein are needed to clarify their clinical significance.

The Construction and Comprehensive Prognostic Analysis of the LncRNA-Associated Competitive Endogenous RNAs Network in Colorectal Cancer.

Project description:Competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) are a newly proposed RNA interaction mechanism that has been associated with the tumorigenesis, metastasis, diagnosis, and predicting survival of various cancers. In this study, we constructed a ceRNA network in colorectal cancer (CRC). Then, we sought to develop and validate a composite clinicopathologic-genomic nomogram using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. To construct the ceRNA network in CRC, we analyzed the mRNAseq, miRNAseq data, and clinical information from TCGA database. LncRNA, miRNA, and mRNA signatures were identified to construct risk score as independent indicators of the prognostic value in CRC patients. A composite clinicopathologic-genomic nomogram was developed to predict the overall survival (OS). One hundred sixty-one CRC-specific lncRNAs, 97 miRNAs, and 161 mRNAs were identified to construct the ceRNA network. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that nine-lncRNA signatures, eight-miRNA signatures, and five-mRNA signatures showed a significant prognostic value for CRC. Furthermore, a clinicopathologic-genomic nomogram was constructed in the primary cohort, which performed well in both the primary and validation sets. This study presents a nomogram that incorporates the CRC-specific ceRNA expression profile, clinical features, and pathological factors, which demonstrate its excellent differentiation and risk stratification in predicting OS in CRC patients.

Reconstruction and analysis of the aberrant lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network based on competitive endogenous RNA in CESC.

Project description:A growing body of studies has demonstrated that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) are regarded as the primary section of the ceRNA network. This is thought to be the case owing to its regulation of protein-coding gene expression by functioning as miRNA sponges. However, functional roles and regulatory mechanisms of lncRNA-mediated ceRNA in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CESC), as well as their use for potential prediction of CESC prognosis, remains unknown. The aberrant expression profiles of mRNA, lncRNA, and miRNA of 306 cervical squamous cancer tissues and three adjacent cervical tissues were obtained from the TCGA database. A lncRNA-mRNA-miRNA ceRNA network in CESC was constructed. Meanwhile, Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analysis were performed using Cytoscape plug-in BinGo and DAVID database. We identified a total of 493 lncRNA, 70 miRNA, and 1921 mRNA as differentially expressed profiles. An aberrant lncRNA-mRNA-miRNA ceRNA network was constructed in CESC, it was composed of 50 DElncRNA, 18 DEmiRNA, and 81 DEmRNA. According to the overall survival analysis, 3 out of 50 lncRNA, 10 out of 81 mRNA, and 1 out of 18 miRNA functioned as prognostic biomarkers for patients with CESC (P value < 0.05). We extracted the sub-network in the ceRNA network and found that two novel lncRNA were recognized as key genes. These included lncRNA MEG3 and lncRNA ADAMTS9-AS2. The present study provides a new insight into a better understanding of the lncRNA-related ceRNA network in CESC, and the novel recognized ceRNA network will help us to improve our understanding of lncRNA-mediated ceRNA regulatory mechanisms in the pathogenesis of CESC.
