Interferon-mediated repression of miR-324-5p potentiates necroptosis to facilitate antiviral defense

ABSTRACT: Mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) is the terminal effector of necroptosis, a form of regulated necrosis. Optimal activation of necroptosis, which eliminates infected cells, is critical for antiviral host defense. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate the expression of genes involved in various biological and pathological processes. However, the roles of miRNAs in necroptosis-associated host defense remain largely unknown. We screened a library of miRNAs and identified miR-324-5p as the most effective suppressor of necroptosis. MiR-324-5p downregulates human MLKL expression by specifically targeting the 3'UTR in a seed region-independent manner. In response to interferons (IFNs), miR-324-5p is downregulated via the JAK/STAT signaling pathway, which removes the posttranscriptional suppression of MLKL mRNA and facilitates the activation of necroptosis. In influenza A virus (IAV)-infected human primary macrophages, IFNs are induced, leading to the downregulation of miR-324-5p. MiR-324-5p overexpression attenuates IAV-associated necroptosis and enhances viral replication, whereas deletion of miR-324-5p potentiates necroptosis and suppresses viral replication. Hence, miR-324-5p negatively regulates necroptosis by manipulating MLKL expression, and its downregulation by IFNs orchestrates optimal activation of necroptosis in host antiviral defense.

Long Noncoding RNA AROD Inhibits Host Antiviral Innate Immunity via the miR-324-5p-CUEDC2 Axis.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of noncoding RNAs that are involved in multiple biological processes. Here, we report a mechanism through which the lnc-AROD-miR-324-5p-CUEDC2 axis regulates the host innate immune response, using influenza A virus (IAV) as a model. We identified that host lnc-AROD without protein-coding capability is composed of 975 nucleotides. Moreover, lnc-AROD inhibited interferon-β expression, as well as interferon-stimulated genes ISG15 and MxA. Furthermore, in vivo assays confirmed that lnc-AROD overexpression increased flu virus pathogenicity and mortality in mice. Mechanistically, lnc-AROD interacted with miR-324-5p, leading to decreased binding of miR-324-5p to CUEDC2. Collectively, our findings demonstrated that lnc-AROD is a critical regulator of the host antiviral response via the miR-324-5p-CUEDC2 axis, and lnc-AROD functions as competing endogenous RNA. Our results also provided evidence that lnc-AROD serves as an inhibitor of the antiviral immune response and may represent a potential drug target. IMPORTANCE lnc-AROD is a potential diagnostic and discriminative biomarker for different cancers. However, so far the mechanisms of lnc-AROD regulating virus replication are not well understood. In this study, we identified that lnc-AROD is downregulated during RNA virus infection. We demonstrated that lnc-AROD enhanced CUEDC2 expression, which in turn inhibited innate immunity and favored IAV replication. Our studies indicated that lnc-AROD functions as a competing endogenous RNA that binds miR-324-5p and reduces its inhibitory effect on CUEDC2. Taken together, our findings reveal that lnc-AROD plays an important role during the host antiviral immune response.

miR-324-5p and miR-30c-2-3p Alter Renal Mineralocorticoid Receptor Signaling under Hypertonicity

Project description:The Mineralocorticoid Receptor (MR) mediates the sodium-retaining action of aldosterone in the distal nephron, but mechanisms regulating MR expression are still poorly understood. We previously showed that RNA Binding Proteins (RBPs) regulate MR expression at the post-transcriptional level in response to variations of extracellular tonicity. Herein, we highlight a novel regulatory mechanism involving the recruitment of microRNAs (miRNAs) under hypertonicity. RT-qPCR validated miRNAs candidates identified by high throughput screening approaches and transfection of a luciferase reporter construct together with miRNAs Mimics or Inhibitors demonstrated their functional interaction with target transcripts. Overexpression strategies using Mimics or lentivirus revealed the impact on MR expression and signaling in renal KC3AC1 cells. miR-324-5p and miR-30c-2-3p expression are increased under hypertonicity in KC3AC1 cells. These miRNAs directly affect Nr3c2 (MR) transcript stability, act with Tis11b to destabilize MR transcript but also repress Elavl1 (HuR) transcript, which enhances MR expression and signaling. Overexpression of miR-324-5p and miR-30c-2-3p alter MR expression and signaling in KC3AC1 cells with blunted responses in terms of aldosterone-regulated genes expression. We also confirm that their expression is increased by hypertonicity in vivo in the kidneys of mice treated with furosemide. These findings may have major implications for the pathogenesis of renal dysfunctions, sodium retention, and mineralocorticoid resistance.

Interferon induced IFIT family genes in host antiviral defense.

Project description:Secretion of interferons (IFNs) from virus-infected cells is a hallmark of host antiviral immunity and in fact, IFNs exert their antiviral activities through the induction of antiviral proteins. The IFN-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats (IFITs) family is among hundreds of IFN-stimulated genes. This family contains a cluster of duplicated loci. Most mammals have IFIT1, IFIT2, IFIT3 and IFIT5; however, bird, marsupial, frog and fish have only IFIT5. Regardless of species, IFIT5 is always adjacent to SLC16A12. IFIT family genes are predominantly induced by type I and type III interferons and are regulated by the pattern recognition and the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. IFIT family proteins are involved in many processes in response to viral infection. However, some viruses can escape the antiviral functions of the IFIT family by suppressing IFIT family genes expression or methylation of 5' cap of viral molecules. In addition, the variants of IFIT family genes could significantly influence the outcome of hepatitis C virus (HCV) therapy. We believe that our current review provides a comprehensive picture for the community to understand the structure and function of IFIT family genes in response to pathogens in human, as well as in animals.

LINC00491 promotes cell growth and metastasis through miR-324-5p/ROCK1 in liver cancer.

Project description:BackgroundLINC00491 was involved in some tumors development, but its function in liver cancer has not been reported. This study aimed to investigate LINC00491 expression and function in liver cancer progression.MethodsSixty liver cancer cases were enrolled. LINC00491, miR-324-5p and rho-associated kinase 1 (ROCK1) expression in liver cancer patients and cells were detected by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. HUH-7 and SK-Hep-1 cells were transfected to modulate LINC00491, miR-324-5p and ROCK1 expression. Cell counting kit-8 assay, colony formation assay, wound healing assay, Transwell experiment, Tunel assay and flow cytometry were performed to detected HUH-7 and SK-Hep-1 cells proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis and cell cycle. Biotin-RNA pull-down assay and Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay was performed to detect the binding among LINC00491, miR-324-5p and ROCK1. Xenograft tumor and lung metastasis was performed using nude mice. Xenograft tumor and lung tissues of mice were experienced immunohistochemistry and hematoxylin-eosin staining.ResultsLINC00491 was highly expressed in liver cancer cases, associating with poor prognosis. si-LINC00491 inhibited proliferation, colony formation, invasion, migration, and induced cell cycle G1 arrest and apoptosis in HUH-7 and SK-Hep-1 cells. LINC00491 overexpression showed opposite effects. LINC00491 promoted ROCK1 expression by reducing miR-324-5p. miR-324-5p up-regulation or ROCK1 knockdown reversed LINC00491 promotion on liver SK-Hep-1 cells malignant phenotype. LINC00491 facilitated xenograft tumor growth and lung metastasis in mice.ConclusionLINC00491 was highly expressed in liver cancer patients, associating with poor prognosis. LINC00491 facilitated liver cancer progression by sponging miR-324-5p/ROCK1. LINC00491 might be a potential treatment target of liver cancer.

MiR-324-5p/PTPRD/CEBPD axis promotes papillary thyroid carcinoma progression via microenvironment alteration.

Project description:MiR-324-5p is overexpressed in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with lymph node metastasis and promotes malignant phenotypes of KTC-1 cell line. However, the detailed regulatory mechanism remains unknown. Tumor microenvironment plays a key role in tumor progression. CCAAT enhancer-binding protein delta (CEBPD) is important in immune and inflammatory responses. In this study, we investigated the interaction between miR-324-5p/PTPRD/CEBPD axis and tumor microenvironment in PTC progression. K1 and KTC-1 were transfected by lenti-CEBPD or CEBPD-sh vectors. Supernatant from different groups was harvested and added into culture media of human macrophages and HUVEC. Cell viability, colony formation, invasive and migrated cell number, and gap closure rate were elevated in lenti-CEBPD group. Compared with the control, supernatant from lenti-CEBPD group contained more abundant levels of VEGF and IL-4/IL-13, which, respectively, induced higher HUVEC invasion/migration rates and more obvious M2 marker (CD206) and genes (PPAR-γ and MRC-1) expression in macrophages. By means of luciferase reporter assay and gene manipulation, we identified that CEBPD was negatively regulated in PTC by protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor delta (PTPRD) which was the target of miR-324-5p. CEBPD-shRNA was also proved to reverse the effect of PTPRD-sh1 or miR-324-5p mimic on IL-4/IL-13 expression and HUVEC invasion. These results suggested that miR-324-5p/PTPRD/CEBPD axis was involved in the progression of PTC by inducing HUVEC invasion/migration and macrophage M2 polarization via VEGF and IL4/IL13, respectively.

NFAT4-dependent miR-324-5p regulates mitochondrial morphology and cardiomyocyte cell death by targeting Mtfr1.

Project description:Emerging evidence suggest that the abnormal mitochondrial fission participates in pathogenesis of cardiac diseases, including myocardial infarction and heart failure. However, the molecular components regulating mitochondrial network in heart remain largely unidentified. Here we report that NFAT4, miR-324-5p and mitochondrial fission regulator 1 (Mtfr1) function in one signaling axis that regulates mitochondrial morphology and cardiomyocyte cell death. Knocking down Mtfr1 suppresses mitochondrial fission, apoptosis and myocardial infarction. Mtfr1 is a direct target of miR-324-5p, and miR-324-5p attenuates mitochondrial fission, cardiomyocyte apoptosis and myocardial infarction by suppressing Mtfr1 translation. Finally, we show that transcription factor NFAT4 inhibits miR-324-5p expression. Knockdown of NFAT4 suppresses mitochondrial fission and protects cardiomyocyte from apoptosis and myocardial infarction. Our study defines the NFAT4/ miR-324-5p/Mtfr1 axis, which participates in the regulation of mitochondrial fission and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and suggests potential new treatment avenues for cardiac diseases.

Knockdown of hsa_circ_0091994 constrains gastric cancer progression by suppressing the miR-324-5p/HMGA1 axis.

Project description:CircRNAs have emerged as potential therapeutic targets for diseases such as gastric cancer (GC). We identified highly dysregulated circRNAs in GC tissue and further explored their potential mechanisms in the progression of GC. Hsa_circ_0091994 (cicrRNA_105040) was identified as a highly upregulated circRNA in GC tissues, whose host gene is negatively associated with the overall survival of patients. Using cell counting kit-8 and Annexin V assays, we observed that hsa_circ_0091994 knockdown inhibited the viability of AGS and HGC-27 cells by inducing apoptosis. Scratch wound healing assays showed that hsa_circ_0091994 knockdown also inhibited GC cell healing. Bioinformatics analysis and a luciferase assays revealed that hsa_circ_0091994 knockdown inhibits GC progression by suppressing miR-324-5p and HMGA1 expression. The antitumor effect of hsa_circ_0091994 knockdown was confirmed in vivo using a mouse xenograft model. Hsa_circ_0091994 knockdown inhibited the progression of GC by inhibiting the miR-324-5p/HMGA1 axis.

SMA-miRs (miR-181a-5p, -324-5p, and -451a) are overexpressed in spinal muscular atrophy skeletal muscle and serum samples.

Project description:Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disorder characterized by the degeneration of the second motor neuron. The phenotype ranges from very severe to very mild forms. All patients have the homozygous loss of the SMN1 gene and a variable number of SMN2 (generally 2-4 copies), inversely related to the severity. The amazing results of the available treatments have made compelling the need of prognostic biomarkers to predict the progression trajectories of patients. Besides the SMN2 products, few other biomarkers have been evaluated so far, including some miRs. We performed whole miRNome analysis of muscle samples of patients and controls (14 biopsies and 9 cultures). The levels of muscle differentially expressed miRs were evaluated in serum samples (51 patients and 37 controls) and integrated with SMN2 copies, SMN2 full-length transcript levels in blood and age (SMA-score). Over 100 miRs were differentially expressed in SMA muscle; 3 of them (hsa-miR-181a-5p, -324-5p, -451a; SMA-miRs) were significantly upregulated in the serum of patients. The severity predicted by the SMA-score was related to that of the clinical classification at a correlation coefficient of 0.87 (p<10-5). miRNome analyses suggest the primary involvement of skeletal muscle in SMA pathogenesis. The SMA-miRs are likely actively released in the blood flow; their function and target cells require to be elucidated. The accuracy of the SMA-score needs to be verified in replicative studies: if confirmed, its use could be crucial for the routine prognostic assessment, also in presymptomatic patients.
