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:Cervical cancer is a malignant disease that causes around 350 000 deaths annually. One of the essential things in enhancing the survival rates of cervical cancer is the availability of high-quality, sensitive, and specific diagnostic tests capturing the early stages of the disease. In this study, we analyzed the differential expression of microRNA in cervical cancer FFPE tissue samples. The comprehensive miRNA expression profile was detected using modern small-RNA sequencing technology, and the results were validated by real-time PCR. The relative expression of selected miRNAs was determined using the 2-ΔΔCt method. Moreover, two strategies for endogenous control selection were compared. miRNA profiling by small-RNA sequencing and a commercially supplied microfluidic card with 30recommended endogenous controls predesigned by the manufacturer. The RefFinder algorithm and coefficient of variation were used for endogenous control selection. A combination of miR-181a-5p and miR-423-3p was chosen as the most optimal normalizer. Statistically significant upregulation ofmiR-320a-3p, miR-7704, and downregulation of miR-26a-5p was detected, so we propose the combination as a new potential miRNA cervical cancer diagnostic panel. Using ROC curve analysis, the proposed panel showed 93.33% specificity and 96.97% sensitivity with AUC = 0.985. Inconclusion, our study suggests an optimal combination of two endogenous miRNAs for data normalization of miRNA expression studies in the cervical tissue (miR-181a-5p and miR-423-3p) and a novel diagnostic marker panel of three miRNAs (miR-320a-3p, miR-7704, miR-26a-5p) for cervical cancer.

Project description:Hyperglycemia is a hallmark in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) which increases risk of micro and macrovascular complications such as diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy (microvascular complications), and peripheral vascular disease, cerebrovascular disease and cardiovascular diseases (macrovascular complications). Endothelial cells are affected in both cases. In this study, we investigated the miRNA expression changes in HUVECs during different glucose treatment (5mM, 10mM, 25mM and 40mM glucose) at various time intervals (6, 12, 24 and 48hrs). The results of miRNA microarray showed there is a correlation between hyperglycemia induced endothelial dysfunction and miRNA expression. In silico prediction showed that the following pathways: Regulation of actin cytoskeleton, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, Apoptosis, Neurotrophin signaling pathway, and Insulin signaling pathway, were dysregulated during hyperglycemia. Majority of the pathways are related to apoptosis. 10 miRNAs (miR-26a-5p, -26b-5p, 29b-3p, 29c-3p, 125b-1-3p, -130b-3p, - 140-5p, -221-3p, -192-5p, and -320a,) showed increased expression with increasing concentration of glucose treatment. miR-26a-5p, -29b-3p, - 140-5p, -221-3p, and -192-5p are involves in endothelial apoptosis. Our study revealed miRNAs (miR-29b-3p and – 192-5p) with known mRNA targets (BCL2 and MCL1) showed expression pattern inversely correlating with their respective target mRNAs. Therefore these miRNAs could involve in the endothelial dysfunction due to hyperglycemia.

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.

Project description:Hibernating American black bears have significantly different clotting parameters than their active summer counterparts, affording them innate protection against venous thromboembolism (VTE) despite prolonged periods of immobility. Physiologic changes that occur during hibernation are thought to result from differential gene expression, rather than novel genes, and there is increasing evidence miRNAs may play an important role this regulation. We propose that significant differences exist in miRNA expression in the plasma of hibernating black bears compared to their active counter parts (summer), which lead to critical gene regulation responsible for auto-anticoagulation during hibernation. Methods: Blood was collected from 21 American black bears in the Northern Michigan Peninsula in summer 2017 and winter 2018 (11 active, 10 hibernating). Plasma was extracted Results: Fifteen miRNAs were differentially expressed in the plasma of hibernating black bears. Nine miRNAs were significantly downregulated (miR10b-3p, miR-136-3p, miR-181c-5p , miR-200a-3p, miR-200b-5p, miR-200c-3p, miR-320b, miR-320c and miR-320d) and six miRNAs were significantly upregulated (miR-15a-5p, miR-15b-3p, miR-15b-5p, miR-16-5p, miR-92a-3p, miR-150-5p) during hibernation. Twelve miRNAs had no identifiable targets, but miR-200a-3p, miR-200b-5p and miR-200c-3p found to be targets of SERPINC1, the gene responsible for the production of antithrombin (AT). Conclusions: Several miRNAs were differentially expressed in hibernating bears (12). Most importantly miR-200a-3p, miR-200b-5p and miR-200c-3p were all downregulated in hibernation and associated with increased expression of SERPINC1 and production of AT. AT is a powerful anticoagulant and this finding may explain the hibernating black bears ability to achieve auto-anticoagulation and protection from VTE.

Project description:Purpose: We report the application of NGS for the impacts of BDE47 exposure on the miRNA expression profiling of zebrafish larvae. Methods: miRNA profiles of 6-day-old BDE47-treated and control zebrafish larvae were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hisq 2000 platform. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with TopHat followed by Cufflinks. Results: Compared BDE47 treatments with solvent control, a dozen of validated zebrafish miRNAs, including dre-miR-142a-3p, dre-miR-142b-5p, dre-miR-144-3p, dre-miR-146a, dre-miR-190a, dre-miR-219-5p, dre-miR-301b-3p, dre-miR-459-5p, rno-miR-33-5p, dre-miR-735-3p, and dre-miR-735-5p, significantly changed their expressions. Conclusions: This study provides a framework for the application of high-throughput sequencing towards characterization of the impacts of BDE47 on whole zebrafish larval miRNA expression profiling.

Project description:Background - Cardiac microRNAs (miRNAs) could be released into circulation thus becoming circulating cardiac miRNAs, which are increasingly recognized as noninvasive and readily accessible biomarker for multiple heart diseases. A global loss of cardiac miRNAs due to dicer or dgcr8 depletion has been reported to lead to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, DCM-associated circulating miRNAs (DACMs) and their roles in regulating DCM progression remain largely unexplored. Methods and Results - Through miRNA sequencing of human plasma procured from DCM patients and healthy control people, DCM was characterized with a unique expression pattern for circulating miRNAs. Among them, miR-26a-5p, miR-30c-5p, miR-126-5p, and miR-126-3p were all identified with dramatic reductions in DCM mouse myocardium as in the plasma of DCM patients. FOXO3, highlighted as a predicted common target gene, was experimentally demonstrated to be repressed within cardiomyocytes by these miRNAs except miR-26a-5p. Mechanistically, miRNA combination (miR-30c-5p, miR-126-5p, and miR-126-3p) significantly attenuated FOXO3-induced apoptosis and autophagy observed in cardiomyocytes as well as in DCM murine heart. Cardiac-specific knockout of FOXO3 conspicuously mitigated myocardial apoptosis and autophagy in DCM development. Moreover, stymieing the interaction between these miRNAs and FOXO3 mRNA extremely crippled the cardioprotection of these miRNAs against DCM progression. Cardiac miRNA-FOXO3 axis plays a pivotal role in safeguarding against myocardial apoptosis and autophagy, thereby maintaining cardiac homeostasis and potently preventing DCM development. These findings may provide serological clues for the noninvasive diagnosis of DCM in the future, and unambiguously shed new light on DCM pathogenesis and associated therapeutic targets
