Project description:For deep understading of miR-1285-5p in breast cancer, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profilings as a discovery platform to identify target genes of miR-1285-5p. Using human breast cancer cell lines (MCF7, MDA-MB-231, HCC1937 and HCC1954), 31 down-down regulated genes were identified by overexpression of miR-1285-5p reagardless of tumor biology. Functional interaction of miR-1285-5p with two genes (TMEM194A and SLC30A9) from this gene sets was evaluated by r-rt-PCR, Western blot and luciferase transporter assay.

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive form of brain tumors. Despite radical surgery and radiotherapy supported by chemotherapy, the disease still remains incurable with extremely low median survival rate of 12-15 months from the time of initial diagnosis. The main cause of treatment failure is considered to be the presence of cells that are resistant to such treatment. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) as regulators of gene expression are involved in the tumor pathogenesis, including GBM. MiR-338 is a brain specific miRNA which has been described to target pathways involved in proliferation and differentiation. In our study, miR-338-3p and -5p were differentially expressed in GBM tissue in comparison to non-tumor brain tissue. Overexpression of miR-338-3p with miRNA mimic did not show any changes in proliferation rates in GBM cell lines (A172, T98G, U87MG). On the other hand, pre-miR-338-5p notably decreased proliferation and caused cell cycle arrest. Since radiation is currently the main treatment modality in GBM, we combined overexpression of pre-miR-338-5p with radiation, which led to significantly decreased of cell proliferation, and increased cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in comparison to only irradiated cells. To better elucidate the mechanism of action, we performed gene expression profiling analysis that revealed targets of miR-338-5p being Ndfip1, Rheb, ppp2R5a. These genes have been described to be involved in DNA damage response, proliferation and cell cycle regulation. To our knowledge, this is the first study to describe role of miR-338-5p in GBM and its potential to improve sensitivity of GBM to radiation. Study was performed on three glioblastoma multiforme cell lines A172, T98G and U87MG. This experiment was performed on Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene ST 1.0 to elucidate the targets of miRNA-338-5p. Cell lines were seeded 24 hours prior transfection. After transfection with pre-miR338-5p or negative control cell were cultured for 24 hours and harvested. RNA was isolated using MirVana miRNA Isolation Kit (Ambion, USA) and checked for RNA integrity by Bioanalyzer 2100 and purity by ratios 260/280>1.8 and 260/230>1.8 by Nanodrop2000.

Project description:PD-L1 Inhibitor Regulates the miR-33a-5p/PTEN Signaling Pathway and Can Be Targeted to Sensitize Glioblastomas to Radiation. Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and lethal brain tumor in adults. Ionizing radiation (IR) is a standard treatment for GBM patients and results in DNA damage. However, the clinical efficacy of IR is limited due to therapeutic resistance. The programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade has a shown the potential to increase the efficacy of radiotherapy by inhibiting DNA damage and repair responses. The miR-33a-5p is an essential microRNA that promotes GBM growth and self-renewal. In this study, we investigated whether a PD-L1 inhibitor (a small molecule inhibitor) exerted radio-sensitive effects to impart an anti-tumor function in GBM cells by modulating miR-33a-5p. U87 MG cells and U251 cells were pretreated with PD-L1 inhibitor. The PD-L1 inhibitor-induced radio-sensitivity in these cells was assessed by assaying cellular apoptosis, clonogenic survival assays, and migration. TargetScan and luciferase assay showed that miR-33a-5p targeted the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) 3' untranslated region. The expression level of PTEN was measured by western blotting, and was also silenced using small interfering RNAs. The levels of DNA damage following radiation was measured by the presence of γ-H2AX foci, cell cycle, and the mRNA of the DNA damage-related genes, BRCA1, NBS1, RAD50, and MRE11. Our results demonstrated that the PD-L1 inhibitor significantly decreased the expression of the target gene, miR-33a-5p. In addition, pretreatment of U87 MG and U251 cells with the PD-L1 inhibitor increased radio-sensitivity, as indicated by increased apoptosis, while decreased survival and migration of GBM cells. Mir-33a-5p overexpression or silencing PTEN in U87 MG and U251 cells significantly attenuated PD-L1 radiosensitive effect. Additionally, PD-L1 inhibitor treatment suppressed the expression of the DNA damage response-related genes, BRCA1, NBS1, RAD50, and MRE11. Our results demonstrated a novel role for the PD-L1 inhibitor in inducing radio- sensitivity in GBM cells, where inhibiting miR-33a-5p, leading to PTEN activated, and inducing DNA damage was crucial for antitumor immunotherapies to treat GBM.

Project description:Previously, we used mouse and non-human primate models to show that serum miRNAs may predict the biological impact of lethal and sublethal radiation doses. We hypothesized that these results can be replicated in humans treated with total body irradiation (TBI), and that miRNAs may be used as clinically feasible biodosimeters. To test this hypothesis, serial serum samples were obtained from 25 patients who underwent allogeneic stem-cell transplantation and profiled for miRNA expression using next-generation sequencing. Differential expression results were largely consistent with previous studies and allowed us to select miRNAs, including miR-150-5p, miR-126-5p, miR-375, miR-215-5p, miR-144-5p, miR-122-5p, miR-320d and miR-10b-5p to build classifiers using qPCR-based quantification. We therefore conclude that serum miRNAs reflect radiation exposure and dose for humans undergoing TBI and may be used as functional biodosimeters for precise identification of people exposed to clinically significant radiation doses.

Project description:Purpose: MicroRNAs play a prominent role in a variety of physiological and pathological biological processes, including cancer. For rectal cancers, only limited data are available on microRNA expression profiles, while the underlying genomic and transcriptomic aberrations have been firmly established. We therefore aimed to comprehensively map the microRNA expression patterns of this disease. Experimental design: Tumor biopsies and corresponding matched mucosa samples were prospectively collected from 72 patients (68 tumors and 70 normal mucosa) with locally advanced rectal cancers. Total RNA was extracted, and tumor and mucosa microRNA expression profiles were subsequently established for all patients. The expression of selected microRNAs was validated using semi-quantitative real-time PCR. Results: Forty-nine microRNAs were significantly differentially expressed (log2-fold difference >0.5 and P<0.001) between rectal cancer and normal rectal mucosa. The predicted targets for the identified microRNAs were enriched for the following KEGG pathways: Wnt, TGF-beta, mTOR, insulin, MAPK, and ErbB signaling. Between rectal tumor and normal tissue, miR-492, miR-542-5p, miR-584, miR-483-5p, miR-144, miR-2110, miR-652*, miR-375, miR-147b, miR-148a, miR-190, miR-26a/b, and miR-338-3p were found to be differentially expressed. Of clinical impact, miR-135b expression correlated significantly with overall survival that could be validated in a larger multicenter patient set (n=94). Conclusion: The comprehensive analysis of the rectal cancer microRNAome uncovered novel microRNAs and pathways associated with rectal cancer. This information contributes to a detailed view of rectal cancer. The identification and validation of miR-135b will help to identify novel molecular targets and pathways for therapeutic exploitation. Paired samples from rectal tumor and matched normal samples. Included are also 2 technical replicates.

Project description:From a previous microarray study we developed a small chondrogenesis model. We performed qPCR and measured how knockdown of miR-199a-5p or miR-199b-5p could modulate chondrogenesis. Several experiments were used to determine the parameters of this model. We utilised parameter scan and manual sliding to refine the model. Within are two models - an initial model which only comprises of genes which we have data for, and an enhanced model which expands of the initial model to make more predictions - e.g. how miR-140-5p is indirectly regulated by miR-199a-5p and miR-199b-5p.

Project description:microRNA-7-5p (miR-7-5p) is an established tumor suppressor in multiple cancer types and inhibits growth and invasion by suppressing expression and activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway. While melanoma is not typically driven by EGFR signaling, expression of miR-7-5p is reduced in metastatic tumors compared to primary melanoma. Here, we investigated the biological and clinical significance of miR-7-5p in melanoma. Our results showed that augmenting miR-7-5p expression in vitro markedly reduced tumor cell viability, colony formation and induced cell cycle arrest. Furthermore, ectopic expression of miR-7-5p reduced migration and invasion of melanoma cells in vitro and reduced melanoma lung colonizationmetastasis in vivo. To investigate the mechanism underlying this effect, we used cDNA microarray analysis to identify a subset of putative miR-7-5p target genes associated with melanoma and metastasis. Of these, we confirmed nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) subunit RelA, as a novel direct target of miR-7-5p in melanoma cells, such that miR-7-5p suppresses NF-κB activity to decrease expression of canonical NF-κB target genes, including IL-1a, IL-6 and IL-8. Importantly, the effects of miR-7-5p on melanoma cell growth, cell cycle, migration and invasion were recapitulated by RelA knockdown. Finally, analysis of gene array datasets from multiple melanoma patient cohorts revealed an association between elevated RelA expression and poor survival, further emphasizing the clinical significance of RelA and its downstream signaling effectors.. Taken together, our data suggest that miR-7-5p replacement therapy might have clinical utility in melanoma to inhibit the metastatic process, in part through its inactivation of RelA/NF-kB signaling. Total RNA was extracted from WM266-4 cells transfected with miR-NC or miR-7-5p precursor molecules (30 nM) for 24 h, using Qiazol reagent (Qiagen).

Project description:Natural and synthetic circular RNAs effectively impair miRNA function. MiR-21-5p is a potent oncomiR presenting ~33% of all miRNAs across cancers, ~41% in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and ~68% in LUAD-derived cells. We validate and identify five main tumor suppressors targeted by miR-21-5p by deletion of the MIR21 locus in LUAD cells. Synthetic, liposome-delivered circular miR-21-5p decoys enhance expression of these tumor suppressors and severely impair tumor cell vitality at low doses. Decoy efficacy is not increased by bulging of miR-21-5p targeting sites, but associated with substantial cellular decoy stability, indicated by a half-life of ~20h. The intraperitoneal application of nanoparticle-delivered miR-21-5p decoys significantly impairs tumor growth in mouse LUAD tumor models. Decoys are well tolerated and were enriched in lung tissue. However, despite low decoy abundance, tumor suppressor expression was only increased in subcutaneous tumors. These findings suggest nanoparticle-delivered circular miRNA decoys as potent therapeutics in cancer treatment.
