Involvement of Dual Strands of miR-143 (miR-143-5p and miR-143-3p) and Their Target Oncogenes in the Molecular Pathogenesis of Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Our analyses of tumor-suppressive microRNAs (miRNAs) and their target oncogenes have identified novel molecular networks in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Moreover, our recent studies revealed that some passenger strands of miRNAs contribute to cancer cell malignant transformation. Downregulation of both strands of the miR-143 duplex was observed in LUAD clinical specimens. Ectopic expression of these miRNAs suppressed malignant phenotypes in cancer cells, suggesting that these miRNAs have tumor-suppressive activities in LUAD cells. Here, we evaluated miR-143-5p molecular networks in LUAD using genome-wide gene expression and miRNA database analyses. Twenty-two genes were identified as potential miR-143-5p-controlled genes in LUAD cells. Interestingly, the expression of 11 genes (MCM4, RAD51, FAM111B, CLGN, KRT80, GPC1, MTL5, NETO2, FANCA, MTFR1, and TTLL12) was a prognostic factor for the patients with LUAD. Furthermore, knockdown assays using siRNAs showed that downregulation of MCM4 suppressed cell growth, migration, and invasion in LUAD cells. Aberrant expression of MCM4 was confirmed in the clinical specimens of LUAD. Thus, we showed that miR-143-5p and its target genes were involved in the molecular pathogenesis of LUAD. Identification of tumor-suppressive miRNAs and their target oncogenes may be an effective strategy for elucidation of the molecular oncogenic networks of this disease.

Project description:Rationale: Currently, there are no blood-based biomarkers with clinical utility for acute ischemic stroke (IS). microRNAs (miRNAs) show promise as disease markers due to their cell-type specific expression patterns and stability in peripheral blood. Objective: To identify circulating miRNAs associated with acute IS, determine their temporal course up to 90 days post-stroke, and explore their utility as an early diagnostic marker. Methods and Results: We used RNA sequencing to study expression changes of circulating miRNAs in a discovery sample of 20 IS patients and 20 matched healthy control subjects (HCs). We further applied qRT-PCR in independent samples for validation (40 IS patients and 40 matched controls), replication (200 IS patients, 100 HCs), and in 72 patients with transient ischemic attacks (TIA). Sampling of patient plasma was done immediately upon hospital arrival. We identified, validated, and replicated three differentially expressed miRNAs, which were upregulated in IS patients compared to both HCs (miR-125a-5p [1.8-fold; P=1.5x10-6], miR-125b-5p [2.5-fold; P=5.6x10-6], and miR-143-3p [4.8-fold; P=7.8x10-9]) and TIA patients (miR-125a-5p: P=0.003, miR-125b-5p: P=0.003, miR-143-3p: P=0.005). Longitudinal analysis of expression levels up to 90 days after stroke revealed a normalization to control levels for miR-125b-5p and miR-143-3p starting at day two, while miR-125a-5p remained elevated. Levels of all three miRNAs depended on platelet numbers in a platelet spike-in experiment, but were unaffected by chemical hypoxia in N2a cells and in experimental stroke models. In a random forest classification, miR-125a-5p, miR-125b-5p and miR-143-3p differentiated between HCs and IS patients with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.90 (sensitivity: 85.6%; specificity: 76.3%), which was superior to multimodal cranial computed tomography obtained for routine diagnostics (sensitivity: 72.5%) and previously reported biomarkers of acute IS (neuron specific enolase: AUC=0.69, interleukin 6: AUC=0.82). Conclusions: A set of circulating miRNAs (miR-125a-5p, miR-125b-5p, miR-143-3p) associates with acute IS and might have clinical utility as an early diagnostic marker.
