MicroRNA profiling in different types,grades and stages of breast cancer

ABSTRACT: MicroRNA profiling was done using Taqman Low Density Arrays (TLDA) platform consisting of 667 microRNAs covering Sanger miRBase version10 cross 50 samples along with their adjacent normals consisting of different types (ER+ and ER-ve), grades (grade 2 and grade 3) with their different stages (I to III). The above isolated RNA which displayed good RIN value and linearity (R2>0.96), were used for reverse transcription (RT) reactions with the help of TaqMan MicroRNA Reverse Transcription Kit followed by real time PCR Reactions (ABI 7900 HT) as per manufacturer's instructions.A pre -amplification step of cDNA with pre-amp megaplex pool primers was carried out to significantly enhance the ability to detect highly down regulated miRNAs. The TaqMan human microRNA arrays consists of two plates, pool A and pool B. RNU 46 and RNU 48 were used as endogenous controls for data normalization. Another control not related to human was also included as a negative control. Each TaqMan Assay was run in quadruplicate. RNU 46 and RNU 48 expression was consistent in all the samples and displayed good range of CT values (22–24 ) where as in ‘No Template’ Control (NTC) CT value was above 38. The average CT values of total profiled miRNAs in all samples were normalized with RNU 46 & RNU 48 using spotfire (statminer) software and fold changes were represented in terms of 2 - Δ Δ CT (RQ ) and log10RQ. Only valid and significant miRNAs were picked up for further analysis.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate activity of protein-coding genes including those involved in hematopoietic cancers. The goal of the current study was to explore which miRNAs are unique for seven different subtypes of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Therefore, the expression levels of 397 miRNAs (including novel miRNAs) were measured by quantitative RT-PCR in 81 pediatric leukemia cases and 17 normal hematopoietic control cases. Except for BCR-ABL-positive and B-other ALL, all major subtypes i.e. T-ALL, MLL-rearranged, TEL-AML1-positive, E2A-PBX1-positive and hyperdiploid ALL have unique miRNA-signatures that differ from each other and from those in healthy hematopoietic cells. Strikingly, the miRNA signature between TEL-AML1-positive and hyperdiploid cases partly overlapped, which suggests a common underlying biology. Moreover, aberrant downregulation of let-7b (~70-fold) in MLL-rearranged ALL was linked to upregulation of oncoprotein c-Myc (P<0.0001). Besides genetic aberrations, in vitro drug resistance predicts clinical outcome. Resistance to vincristine and daunorubicin was characterized by ~20-fold upregulation of miR-125b, miR-99a and miR-100 (P≤0.002). No discriminative miRNAs were found for prednisolone and only one miRNA was linked to L-asparaginase resistance. Finally we show that the expression levels of 14 miRNAs were --independently of subtype-- associated with clinical outcome in pediatric ALL. We conclude that genetic subtypes and drug resistant leukemic cells display characteristic miRNA signatures in pediatric ALL. Functional studies of discriminative and prognostic important miRNAs may provide new insights into the biology of disease. Experiment type: stem-loop real-time (RT) quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) Bone marrow and peripheral blood samples were collected from children at newly diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). CD34+ -cells were sorted from G-CSF-stimulated blood cell samples of children with a brain tumor or Wilm’s tumor. Thymocytes were isolated from thymic lobes that were resected from children during surgery for congenital heart disease. RNA from the cell samples was extracted using TRIzol reagents (firma). Only RNA with an RNA Integrity Number (RIN) of ≥ 7.5 as measured by the 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent, Amstelveen, the Netherlands) was used as input for the RT-qPCR reactions. All miRNAs were validated with the stem-loop real-time (RT) quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) technique by using either TaqMan MicroRNA Array MicroRNA arrays (v 1.0, Early Access) or Custom TaqMan MicroRNA Array arrays (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA). Values represent ∆Ct in each individual patient for whom the specific subtype, identification number and cellular drug-resistance is shown on top of each column. Drug-resistance was based on median LC50 values (concentration of a drug lethal to 50% of the leukemic cells) that have reported prognostic impact in children with newly diagnosed ALL. Median LC50 values were used to assign patients as sensitive (≤ median LC50) or resistant (> median LC50) to the drug in question. The ∆Ct value was calculated according to the following equation: Ct value of the specific miRNA minus the Ct value of the internal reference. In case of the TaqMan MicroRNA Array MicroRNA arrays the mean Ct values for snoR-13 and snoR-14 were used as reference whereas in case of the Custom TaqMan MicroRNA Array arrays snoR-1 was used. MiRNAs validated by the TaqMan MicroRNA Array MicroRNA arrays are listed together with the part numbers of the corresponding (stem-loop) primers as available by Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA. Primers for the remaining miRNAs were custom designed by Applied Biosystems. Abbreviations: MLL: MLL-rearranged precursor B-ALL, B-other: precursor B-ALL negative for MLL-rearrangements, TEL-AML1, BCR-ABL, E2A-PBX and hyperdiploidy (> 50 chromosomes). CD34+: normal CD34+-sorted blood progenitor cells, nBM: normal bone marrow.

Project description:To investigate the regulatory mechanisms governing the malignant signature of different gliomas we analyzed microRNA expression profiles in human tumor samples of world health organization (WHO) grade I (benign tumors), II (low grade tumors) and IV (high grade tumors) and from primary cultures obtained from tumor samples of grade II and IV. Patients This study included tumor samples histologically verified as astrocytic gliomas obtained from patients who had undergone craniotomy for microsurgical tumor removal. According to the revised WHO classification, tumors were diagnosed as: grade I or pilocytic astrocytomas; grade II or diffuse fibrillary astrocytomas; grade IV or glioblastoma multiforme. Primary cell cultures from grade II and grade IV gliomas were also obtained and miRNA expression in these cultures were analyzed RNA extraction Total RNA, including small RNA, was isolated from tissue samples using the mirVanaTM miRNA Isolation Kit (Ambion) following the standard protocol. The quantity and quality of the purified RNA was evaluated by spectrophotometric analysis and electrophoresis on denaturing gel of acrylamide. Multiplex Real-Time Quantitative Reverse-Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) The miRNAs were first converted to cDNA using Multiplex RT for TaqMan Array Human MicroRNA Panel. The RT Master mix included 100 mM each of dNTPs , 50 U/ml MultiScrabe reverse transcriptase (Applied Biosystems), 20 U/µl RNase inhibitor (Applied Biosystems) and 10X RT Buffer. The 10 µl reactions, including 7 µl of RT master mix, 2 µl of purified microRNA and 1 µl of Multiplex RT Human primer pool (Applied Biosystem), were incubated in ice for 5 min and then in a thermal cycler for 30 min at 16°C, 30 min at 42°C, 5 min at 85°C, and then hold at 4°C. miRNA levels were normalized to the expression of small nucleolar RNAs, RNU44, RNU48 and RNU6B. All reverse transcriptase reactions, including no-template controls and RT controls, were run in duplicate. Real-time PCR was performed using a standard TaqMan PCR kit procedure on an “Real Time Fast 7900 HT” PCR System (Applied Biosystems). The 100 µl PCR included 50 µl RT product (before diluited 1:60) and 50 µl TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix (2X) (Applied Biosystems). The total volume were loaded into Card TaqMan Low Density Array Human MicroRNA Panel (Applied Biosystem) including a total of 384 human microRNAs publicated on databases www.sanger.ac.uk. The reaction cards was runned at 50°C for 2 min and 95°C for 10 min, followed by 40 cycles of 97°C for 30s and 59,7°C for 1 min. All reactions were run in triplicate. Analysis of data was performed using the SDS 2.3 software using the 2-∆∆Ct (relative quantitative) method . The ∆Ct of every miRNA was determined in relation to the endogenous control RNA U6 that was invariably expressed in all samples. The ∆∆Ct value was determined in relation to the calibrator, namely the normal brain tissue. Resulting data were grouped according to the tumor grading e selectioned using a cut-off value of 3. Results were expressed as “fold change” over normal brain tissue.
