Project description:Variants in the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) gene CDKN2B-AS1 (CDKN2B antisense RNA 1; ANRIL) are genome-wide associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D), atherosclerosis, and several forms of cancer. However, it is currently not understood how CDKN2B-AS1 transcripts translate into diabetes. We previously demonstrated trans-regulation of the proximal polyadenylated transcripts on several genes with functions in glucose and lipid metabolism. However, information on specific genes that are regulated at physiological concentrations by the distal polyadenylated CDKN2B-AS1 transcripts is lacking. To identify target genes of CDKN2B-AS1 trans-regulation, we designed inducible short hairpin RNA constructs and integrated them into the genome of T-Rex HEK293 cells. Changes of gene expression after induction were determined at defined time points by genome-wide mRNA expression analysis. We confirmed downregulation of RBMS1, located on chromosome 2 (RNA-binding motif, single-stranded interacting protein 1) at the transcript and protein level in stable-transfected, inducible HeLa cells, and demonstrated that the effect was independent of the cell type, known cis-regulatory effects, and regulation of the proximal polyadenylated CDKN2B-AS1 isoforms. Direct binding of CDKN2B-AS1 transcripts to RBMS1 was shown by RNA immunoprecipitation. RBMS1 encodes a cell cycle suppressor. We conclude that the distal and proximal polyadenylated CDKN2B-AS1 transcripts have separate functions in gene regulation, which are independent of the circular CDKN2B-AS1 isoforms and of the genes CDKN2A/2B.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are major regulators of gene expression and cell fate. The INK4 locus encodes the tumour suppressor proteins p15INK4b, p16INK4a and p14ARF required for cell cycle arrest and whose expression increases during senescence. ANRIL is a ncRNA antisense to the p15 gene. In proliferative cells, ANRIL prevents senescence by repressing INK4 genes through the recruitment of Polycomb-group proteins. In models of replicative and RASval12 oncogene-induced senescence (OIS), the expression of ANRIL and Polycomb proteins decreases, thus allowing INK4 derepression. Here, we found in a model of RAF1 OIS that ANRIL expression rather increases, due in particular to an increased stability. This led us to search for circular ANRIL isoforms, as circular RNAs are rather stable species. We found that the expression of two circular ANRIL increases in several OIS models (RAF1, MEK1 and BRAF). In proliferative cells, they repress p15 expression, while in RAF1 OIS, they promote full induction of p15, p16 and p14ARF expression. Further analysis of one of these circular ANRIL shows that it interacts with Polycomb proteins and decreases EZH2 Polycomb protein localization and H3K27me3 at the p15 and p16 promoters, respectively. We propose that changes in the ratio between Polycomb proteins and circular ANRIL isoforms allow these isoforms to switch from repressors of p15 gene to activators of all INK4 genes in RAF1 OIS. Our data reveal that regulation of ANRIL expression depends on the senescence inducer and underline the importance of circular ANRIL in the regulation of INK4 gene expression and senescence.

Project description:The antisense non-coding RNA in the INK locus (ANRIL), which originates from the CDKN2A/B (INK4-ARF) locus, has been identified as a hotspot for genetic variants associated with cardiometabolic disease including coronary artery disease (CAD) and Type 2 diabetes (T2D). We recently found that ANRIL abundance in human pancreatic islets was increased in donors carrying certain T2D risk-SNPs, and that a T2D risk-SNP located within exon2 of ANRIL conferred reduced beta cell proliferation index, pointing to a role for ANRIL in the regulation of T2D pathogenicity via an impact on insulin secretory capacity. Recent studies in other cell types have found that the balance between linear and circular species of ANRIL is linked to the regulation of cardiovascular disease phenotypes. Less is known about circular ANRIL expression in diabetes-relevant cell types and how their abundance might influence the risk of T2D. Herein, we use high-throughput and divergent primer sequencing of circular RNA in human pancreatic islet cells to quantify and characterize circular isoforms of ANRIL. We identified several circular ANRIL isoforms that are more abundant than linear ANRIL and whose expression was correlated across dozens of individuals. Back-splicing did not occur with equal probability at all ANRIL splice sites. Rather, some specific splice sites were found to have a higher propensity to be involved in back-splicing and are weakly enriched for sequence features known to promote back-splicing. Finally, we found that islets from carriers of the T2D risk allele at rs564398 in exon 2 of ANRIL had a higher ratio of circular ANRIL relative to linear ANRIL compared to protective-allele carriers, and that higher circular:linear ANRIL ratio was associated with a decreased beta cell proliferation index. Together, our study points to the combined involvement of both linear and circular ANRIL species in T2D phenotypes and opens the door for future studies to understand the molecular mechanisms by which ANRIL impacts cellular function in human pancreatic islets.

Project description:The long noncoding RNA CDKN2B-AS1 harbors a major coronary artery disease risk haplotype, which is also associated with progressive forms of the oral inflammatory disease periodontitis as well as myocardial infarction (MI). Despite extensive research, there is currently no broad consensus on the function of CDKN2B-AS1 that would explain a common molecular role of this lncRNA in these diseases. Our aim was to investigate the role of CDKN2B-AS1 in gingival cells to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the increased risk of progressive periodontitis. We downregulated CDKN2B-AS1 transcript levels in primary gingival fibroblasts with LNA GapmeRs. Following RNA-sequencing, we performed differential expression, gene set enrichment analyses and Western Blotting. Putative causal alleles were searched by analyzing associated DNA sequence variants for changes of predicted transcription factor binding sites. We functionally characterized putative functional alleles using luciferase-reporter and antibody electrophoretic mobility shift assays in gingival fibroblasts and HeLa cells. Of all gene sets analysed, collagen biosynthesis was most significantly upregulated (Padj=9.7 × 10- 5 (AUC > 0.65) with the CAD and MI risk gene COL4A1 showing strongest upregulation of the enriched gene sets (Fold change = 12.13, Padj = 4.9 × 10- 25). The inflammatory "TNFA signaling via NFKB" gene set was downregulated the most (Padj=1 × 10- 5 (AUC = 0.60). On the single gene level, CAPNS2, involved in extracellular matrix organization, was the top upregulated protein coding gene (Fold change = 48.5, P < 9 × 10- 24). The risk variant rs10757278 altered a binding site of the pathogen responsive transcription factor STAT1 (P = 5.8 × 10- 6). rs10757278-G allele reduced STAT1 binding 14.4% and rs10757278-A decreased luciferase activity in gingival fibroblasts 41.2% (P = 0.0056), corresponding with GTEx data. CDKN2B-AS1 represses collagen gene expression in gingival fibroblasts. Dysregulated collagen biosynthesis through allele-specific CDKN2B-AS1 expression in response to inflammatory factors may affect collagen synthesis, and in consequence tissue barrier and atherosclerotic plaque stability.

Project description:AimsThe role of long non-coding RNA's (lncRNA) in the biology of ulcerative colitis (UC) is not well understood. We have previously detected changes in lncRNA's associated with UC. This study aims to characterize one specific lncRNA, CDKN2B-AS1 whose expression was downregulated in UC patients.Main methodsUC biopsies were used to determine the levels of linear and circular CDKN2B-AS1 relative to healthy controls. In situ hybridization was used to determine the localization of CKDN2B-AS1 in the colon. The intestinal epithelial cell line, Caco-2, was used to study the effects of shRNA mediated loss of CDKN2B-AS1. Transepithelial electrical resistance was used to measure barrier function. An RT-PCR array, immunoblots and immunohistochemistry were used to determine tight junction proteins that CDKN2B-AS1 regulates.Key findingsCDKN2B-AS1 is transcribed into not only linear transcripts but also as circular RNA through back-splicing and both forms are decreased in IBD. CDKN2B-AS1 is expressed mainly in colonic epithelial cells. Cells with down-regulated CDKN2B-AS1 exhibited increased proliferation and no alterations in apoptosis. Targeting both the linear and circular transcripts of CDKN2B-AS1 with short hairpin RNAs enhanced barrier function. We subsequently determined that Claudin-2, a "leaky Claudin" known to decrease barrier function, was decreased in CDKN2B-AS1 knockdown cells.SignificanceThis study identifies a novel lncRNA with both linear and circular transcripts affecting UC biology.
