IGF2-derived miR-483-3p associated with Hirschsprung's disease by targeting FHL1.

ABSTRACT: HSCR (Hirschsprung's disease) is a serious congenital defect, and the aetiology of it remains unclear. Many studies have highlighted the significant roles of intronic miRNAs and their host genes in various disease, few was mentioned in HSCR although. In this study, miR-483-3p along with its host gene IGF2 (Insulin-like growth factor 2) was found down-regulated in 60 HSCR aganglionic colon tissues compared with 60 normal controls. FHL1 (Four and a half LIM domains 1) was determined as a target gene of miR-483-3p via dual-luciferase reporter assay, and its expression was at a higher level in HSCR tissues. Here, we study cell migration and proliferation in human 293T and SH-SY5Y cell lines by performing Transwell and CCK8 assays. In conclusion, the knockdown of miR-483-3p and IGF2 both suppressed cell migration and proliferation, while the loss of FHL1 leads to opposite outcome. Furthermore, miR-483-3p mimics could rescue the negative effects on cell proliferation and migration caused by silencing IGF2, while the FHL1 siRNA may inverse the function of miR-483-3p inhibitor. This study revealed that miR-483-3p derived from IGF2 was associated with Hirschsprung's disease by targeting FHL1 and may provide a new pathway to understand the aetiology of HSCR.

Project description:Background:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is recognized as a chronic lung disease with incomplete reversible airflow limitation, but its pathophysiology was still not clear. This study aimed at investigating regulatory roles of special miRNA-mRNA axis in COPD development. Methods:Differentially expressed miRNAs and downstream mRNAs were screened from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset by using the LIMMA package in R software. Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) was used to construct a co-expression network for COPD. The correlation of dysregulated miRNA(s) and COPD was analyzed, and miRNAs with significant differences were validated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from COPD patients by real-time PCR. Regulatory roles of candidate miRNAs and targeted mRNAs were investigated in vitro study. Results:Thirteen modules of co-expressed miRNAs and mRNAs were constructed from a selected cohort with WGCNA. Turquoise module with 12 differentially expressed miRNAs and 120 mRNAs was significantly correlated with COPD. The expression of hsa-miR-664a-3p, an upregulated miRNA in the module, was increased both in lung tissue and PBMCs from COPD patients, whereas that targeted four and a half LIM domains 1 (FHL1) gene was decreased and positively correlated with forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC%) (r = 0.59, p < 0.01). In vitro, luciferase activity assay revealed FHL1 as a target of hsa-miR-664a-3p and it could be directly downregulated by overexpression of hsa-miR-664a-3p. Furthermore, cigarette smoke extract could increase hsa-miR-664a-3p level and decrease FHL1 level in Beas-2B cells. Conclusion:The present study validated significant upregulation of hsa-miR-664a-3p in COPD patients, and its target gene FHL1 was downregulated and positively correlated with FEV1/FVC%; both hsa-miR-664a-3p and FHL1 could be regulated by cigarette smoke extract. Results of bioinformatic analyses and expanded validation suggest that the axis from hsa-miR-664a-3p to FHL1 might play a key role in cigarette smoke-induced COPD, and the exact mechanism should be confirmed in further studies.

Project description:Novel biomarkers for personalizing anticoagulation remain undetermined. We aimed to investigate the association of plasma miRNAs with pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) profiles of rivaroxaban. This is a multicenter, exploratory study of miRNAs in a Chinese population. Healthy volunteers and patients receiving rivaroxaban were enrolled in the study. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0-t h (AUC0-t) and anti-Xa activity at 3 h (AXA3h) were measured in healthy volunteers, and AXA3h was measured in patients. MiRNAs were detected by miRNA microarray in 26 healthy volunteers with 20 mg rivaroxaban, and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to exclude undetectable ones. MiR-320a-3p and miR-483-5p were then quantified in 65 healthy volunteers and 71 patients. MiRNA levels at 3 h were compared between high and low AXA3h or AUC0-t subjects and in matched patients with or without bleeding during follow-up. The miRNA targets were predicted by TargetScan, miRTarBase, and miRDB. Validated genes were included in GO enrichment and KEGG analyses. The protein-protein interaction network was established by STRING and visualized by Cytoscape. A total of 136 Chinese subjects completed the study. In healthy volunteers taking 15 mg rivaroxaban, the miR-320a level at 3 h was significantly positively correlated with AXA3h and AUC0-t (r = 0.359, p = 0.025; r = 0.370, p = 0.02, respectively). A positive correlation was also observed between miR-483 and AXA3h or AUC0-t (r = 0.372, p = 0.02; r = 0.523, p = 0.001, respectively). MiR-320a and miR-483 levels at 3 h in the higher AUC0-t group were significantly higher than those at 0 h. MiR-483 levels at 3 h may distinguish healthy volunteers with high or low AXA3h or AUC0-t. In the 10 mg fed subgroup, higher 3 h mir-483 levels were also observed compared with the control group. No significant differences were found in the comparisons among patients. Bioinformatic analysis showed that these miRNAs may play a regulatory role by targeting ABCG2, ITGB3, PTEN, MAPK1/3, etc. CONCLUSIONS: MiR-320a and miR-483 levels were found to be associated with PK and PD profiles of rivaroxaban in healthy Chinese subjects. Further studies are required to verify these findings and explore the mechanisms.
