Project description:Purpose: Identify whether recombinant ncRNAs are recognized by mammalian cells and processed into mature microRNAs, thus leading to the alteration of downstream target genes. In addition, we also explored whether cleavage is Dicer dependent. Methods: HEK293T (Dicer-WT) and 424 (Dicer-KO) cell lines were treated with 20nM of control tRNA (MSA), nCAR/miR-34a-5p, or nCAR/miR-34a-3p in triplicate. Results: Read counts of known miRNAs were analyzed using a miRDeep module, and read counts derived from nCAR/miR-34a-5p or nCAR/miR-124a-3p transfection were obtained by mapping sequence reads by an in-house developed PERL script. EdgeR was used to analyze significant (P-value < 0.05 and log2CPM > 6) differentially expressed miRNAs and sRNAs. Conclusions: Upon transfection of recombinant RNA agents in mammalian cells, nCAR/miR-34a-5p became the most dominant miRNA and was processed in a Dicer dependent manner, while nCAR/miR-124a-3p become the 7th most abundant miRNA and displayed comparable levels with or without Dicer. In both cases, different isoforms of the mature miRNA sequence were generated.

Project description:WNT signaling is fundamental to bone health and its aberrant activation leads to skeletal pathologies. A heterozygous missense mutation p.C218G in WNT1, a key WNT pathway ligand, leads to severe early-onset osteoporosis with multiple peripheral and spinal fractures. Despite the severe skeletal manifestations, conventional bone markers are normal in mutation-positive patients. The objective of this study was to find novel biomarkers that differentiate between WNT1 mutation-positive and -negative subjects. We evaluated serum levels of 192 miRNAs in 12 mutation-positive (median age 39 years, range 11-76 years) and 12 mutation-negative (35 years, range 9-59 years) subjects from two Finnish families. The results indicate significant differences in circulating miRNA profiles with 2 upregulated (miR-18a-3p, miR-223-3p) and 6 downregulated miRNAs (miR-22-3p, miR-31-5p, miR-34a-5p, miR-143-5p miR-423-5p, miR 423-3p) in the mutation-positive subjects. Three of these (miR-22-3p, miR-34a-5p, and miR-31-5p) are known inhibitors of WNT signaling: miR-22-3p and miR-34a-5p target WNT1 mRNA and miR-31-5p is predicted to bind to the WNT1 3’UTR. Our results suggest that the WNT1 mutation disrupts a feed-back regulation between these miRNAs and WNT1, providing new insights into the pathogenesis of WNT-related bone disorders. Future studies are warranted to explore the potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications of these findings in osteoporosis.

Project description:Applying Next Generation Sequencing technique we compared the miRNA expression pattern of tumor tissue sample of 6 GPs and peritumoral region of 6 lower grade (I-II) Glioma patients, serving as control group. To determine the difference on miRNA expresion level between GBM and control cases, we performed cluster analysis on the NGS dataset of 6 replicates for each of the two goups of samples with iDEP 96 software. In order to characterize the extent of up- or downregulation, log2FC values were calculated using the iDEP.96 web tool applying the DESeq2 algorithm. On the base of that 117 known miRNAs were identified to be differentially expressed using a threshold of false discovery rate (FDR) <0.05 and fold-change> 2 during the analysis. Among them, 35 miRNAs were upregulated (log2FC > 2) and 82 miRNAs were downregulated (log2FC < -2) with biological revelance in tissue samples comparing with the control samples. To validate our results obtained by NGS, five upregulated miRNAs: hsa-miR-196a-5p, hsa-miR-21-3p, hsa-miR-92b-5p, hsa-miR-10b-3p, hsa-miR-503-5p and three downregulated miRNAs: hsa-mir-383-5p, hsa-mir-490-3p, hsa-mir-1224-3p were chosen for RT-qPCR analysis. As the result of that hsa-miR-196a-5p, hsa-miR-21-3p, and hsa-miR-10b-3p was significantly upregulated while hsa-mir-383-5p and hsa-mir-490-3p was significantly downregulated, compared with those in the control samples. The other three miRNAs: hsa-miR-1224-3p, hsa-miR-92b-5p, hsa-miR-503-5p did not show significant difference between the control group and GPs.

Project description:Drug induced liver injury (DILI) is a leading cause of acute liver failure. Reliable and translational biomarkers are needed for early detection of DILI. microRNAs (miRNAs) have received wide attention as a novel class of potential DILI biomarkers. However, it is unclear how DILI drugs other than acetaminophen may influence miRNA expression or which miRNAs could serve as useful biomarkers in humans. We selected ketoconazole (KCZ), a classic hepatotoxin, to study miRNA biomarkers for DILI as a proof-of-concept for a workflow that integrated in vivo, in vitro, and bioinformatics analyses. We examined hepatic miRNA expression in KCZ-treated rats at multiple doses and durations using miRNA-sequencing and correlated our results with conventional DILI biomarkers such as liver histology. Significant dysregulation of rno-miR-34a-5p, rno-miR-331-3p, rno-miR-15b-3p, and rno-miR-676 was associated with cytoplasmic vacuolization, a phenotype in rat livers with KCZ-induced injury, which preceded the elevation of serum liver transaminases (ALT and AST). Between rats and humans, miR-34a-5p, miR-331-3p, and miR-15b-3p were evolutionarily conserved with identical sequences, whereas miR-676 showed 73% sequence similarity. Using quantitative PCR, we found that the levels of hsa-miR-34a-5p, hsa-miR-331-3p, and hsa-miR-15b-3p were significantly elevated in the culture media of HepaRG cells treated with 100 mM KCZ (a concentration that could induce cytotoxicity). Additionally, we computationally characterized the miRNA candidates for their gene targeting, target functions, and miRNA/target evolutionary conservation. In conclusion, we identified miR-34a-5p, miR-331-3p, and miR-15b-3p as translational biomarker candidates for early detection of KCZ-induced liver injury with a workflow applicable to computational toxicology studies.

Project description:Primary Myelofibrosis (PMF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by hyperplastic megakaryopoiesis and myelofibrosis. Through a gene expression profile (GEP) study we recently highlighted the upregulationof miR-34a-5p in PMF versus healthy donor (HD) CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs). To shed some light into the role of miR-34a-5p in PMF pathogenesis, here we unravelled the effects of the overexpression of miR-34a-5p in HPCs forcing its expression in HPCs. We showed that enforced expression of miR-34a-5p blocks proliferation and favours the megakaryocyte and monocyte/macrophage commitment of HPCs. Interestingly, we identified lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 (LEF1) and nuclear receptor subfamily 4, group A, member 2 (NR4A2) transcripts as miR-34a-5p-targets downregulated after miR-34a-5p overexpression in HPCs as well as in PMF compared with HD HPCs. Remarkably, the knockdown of NR4A2 in HPCs mimicked the antiproliferative effects of miR-34a-5p overexpression, while the silencing of LEF1 phenocopied the effects of miR-34a-5p overexpression in HPCs lineage choice, by stimulating the megakaryocyte and monocyte/macrophage commitment.

Project description:MiRNAs regulate posttranscriptional gene expression and are widely implicated in the pathogenesis of complex diseases. We aim to elucidate miRNA regulation of the atrial mRNA signatures that associate with AF. This may provide novel mechanistical insights and candidate targets for therapies using miRNA mimics or antimiRs.
We present combined miRNAs-mRNAs sequencing in atrial tissues of patient without AF (n=22), with paroxysmal AF (n=22) and with persistent AF (n=20). MiRNA and mRNA signatures followed an ordinal scale from nonAF to paroxysmal to persistent AF patients. The previously reported mRNA sequencing identified 5228 differentially expressed genes involved in epithelial to mesenchymal transition, endothelial cell proliferation and extracellular matrix remodelling involving collagens, glycoproteins and proteoglycans. We discovered 103 differentially expressed miRNAs. Key downregulated miRNAs included miR-135b-5p, miR-138-5p, miR-200a-3p, miR-200b-3p and miR-31-5p and key upregulated miRNAs were miR-144-3p, miR-15b-3p, miR-182-5p miR-18b-5p, miR-4306 and miR-206. The expression levels of differentially expressed miRNAs were negatively correlated with the expression levels of their predicted target mRNAs. The downregulated miRNAs demonstrated a more profound transcriptome effect than the upregulated miRNAs. Upregulated biological processes enriched in miRNAs targets related to epithelial and endothelial cell migration and glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis, in line with the processes discovered by the mRNA sequencing analysis.
Combined analysis of miRNA and mRNA sequencing uncovered miRNAs with a broad transcriptional effect in human AF. Epithelial to mesenchymal transition and endothelial cell proliferation were processes controlled by downregulated miR-135b-5p, miR-138-5p, miR-200a-3p, miR-200b-3p and miR-31-5p, which in turn may contribute to (myo)fibroblast activation and structural remodeling.\

Project description:Xenoestrogens are natural or synthetic compounds that mimic the effect of endogenous estrogens and might cause cancer. We aimed to compare the global transcriptomic response to zearalenone (ZEA; mycotoxin) and bisphenol A (BPA; plastic additive) with the effect of physiological estradiol (E2) in the PEO1 human ovarian cell line by mRNA and microRNA sequencing. Estrogen exposure induced remarkable transcriptomic changes: 308, 288 and 63 genes were upregulated (log2FC > 1); 292, 260 and 45 genes were downregulated (log2FC < -1) in response to E2 (10 nM), ZEA (10 nM) and BPA (100 nM), respectively. Furthermore, the expression of 13, 11 and 10 miRNAs changed significantly (log2FC > 1, or log2FC < -1) after exposure to E2, ZEA and BPA, respectively. Functional enrichment analysis of the significantly differentially expressed genes and miRNAs revealed several pathways related to the regulation of cell proliferation and migration. The effect of E2 and ZEA was highly comparable: 407 genes were coregulated by these molecules. We could identify 83 genes that were regulated by all three treatments that might have a significant role in the estrogen response of ovarian cells. Furthermore, the downregulation of several miRNAs (miR-501-5p, let-7a-2-3p, miR-26a-2-3p, miR-197-5p and miR-582-3p) was confirmed by qPCR, which might support the proliferative effect of estrogens in ovarian cells.

Project description:We tested the hypothesis that a panel of placental mammal-specific miRNAs and their targets play important to establish receptivity to implantation and their dysregulated expression may be a feature in women with early pregnancy loss. Relative expression levels of miR-340-5p, −542-3p, and −671-5p all increased following treatment of Ishikawa cells with progesterone (10 μg/ml) for 24 hrs (p < 0.05). RNA sequencing of these P4-treated cells identified co-ordinate changes to 6,367 transcripts of which 1713 were predicted targets of miR-340-5p, 670 of miR-542-3p, and 618 of miR-671-5p. Quantitative proteomic analysis of Ishikawa cells transfected with mimic or inhibitor (48 hrs: n=3 biological replicates) for each of the P4-regulated miRNAs was carried out to identify targets of these miRNAs. Excluding off target effects, mir-340-5p mimic altered 1,369 proteins while inhibition changed expression of 376 proteins (p < 0.05) of which, 72 were common to both treatments. A total of 280 proteins were identified between predicted (mirDB) and confirmed (in vitro) targets. In total, 171 proteins predicted to be targets by mirDB were altered in vitro by treatment with miR-340-5p mimic or inhibitor and were also altered by treatment of endometrial epithelial cells with P4. In vitro targets of miR-542-3p identified 1,378 proteins altered by mimic while inhibition altered 975 a core of 200 proteins were changed by both. 100 protein targets were predicted and only 46 proteins were P4 regulated. miR-671-mimic altered 1,252 proteins with inhibition changing 492 proteins of which 97 were common to both, 95 were miDB predicted targets and 46 were also P4-regulated. All miRNAs were detected in endometrial biopsies taken from patients during the luteal phase of their cycle, irrespective of prior or future pregnancy outcomes Expression of mir-340-5p showed an overall increase in patients who had previously suffered a miscarriage and had a subsequent miscarriage, as compared to those who had infertility or previous miscarriage and subsequently went on to have a life birth outcome. The regulation of these miRNAs and their protein targets regulate the function of transport and secretion, and adhesion of the endometrial epithelia required for successful implantation in humans. Dysfunction of these miRNAs (and therefore the targets they regulate) may contribute to endometrial-derived recurrent pregnancy loss in women.
