Increased hippocampal excitability in miR-324-null mice

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs are non-coding RNAs that act to downregulate the expression of target genes by translational repression and degradation of messenger RNA molecules. Individual microRNAs have the ability to specifically target a wide array of gene transcripts, therefore allowing each microRNA to play key roles in multiple biological pathways. miR-324 is a microRNA predicted to target thousands of RNA transcripts and is expressed far more highly in the brain than in any other tissue, suggesting that it may play a role in one or multiple neurological pathways. Here we present data from the first global miR-324-null mice, in which increased excitability and interictal discharges were identified in vitro in the hippocampus. RNA sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed genes in miR-324-null mice which may contribute to this increased hippocampal excitability, and 3’UTR luciferase assays revealed that some of these genes are novel direct targets of miR-324. Characterisation of microRNAs that produce an effect on neurological activity, such as miR-324, and identification of the pathways they regulate will allow a better understanding of the processes involved in normal neurological function and in turn may present novel pharmaceutical targets in treating neurological disease.

miR-324 regulates both osteoblast and osteoclast differentiation and function to control bone homeostasis

Project description:microRNAs are non-coding RNAs which modulate the expression of other RNA molecules. One microRNA can target many transcripts, allowing each microRNA to play key roles in many biological pathways. miR-324 is a microRNA previously implicated in bone and cartilage maintenance, defects of which result in common age-related diseases, such as osteoporosis or osteoarthritis (OA). Cartilage damage was increased in both surgically and ageing-induced OA however changes in the cartilage transcriptome were minimal, with few miR-324 predicted targets dysregulated. However, in vivo micro-computed tomography and histology demonstrated that global miR-324-null mice had an increase in bone mineral density, trabecular thickness and cortical thickness, with many parameters increasing with age. The bones of the miR-null mice also had decreased osteocytes numbers and lipid droplets. In vivo TRAP staining revealed a decrease in osteoclasts with histomorphometry demonstrating an increased rate of bone formation in miR-324-null mice. Ex vivo assays revealed that the high bone mass phenotype of the miR-324-null mice resulted from increased osteoblast activity and decreased osteoclastogenesis. RNA-seq and qRT-PCR followed by miR-324 target prediction and validation in osteoblasts, bone marrow macrophages and osteocytes, revealed that the osteoclast fusion regulator Pin1 was a miR-324 target in the osteoclast lineage, Hoxa9 and Samd5 were osteocyte target genes and the master osteogenic regulator Runx2 was a target of miR-324-5p in osteoblasts, the in vitro overexpression of which recapitulated the increased osteogenesis and decreased adipogenesis phenotype observed in vivo. These data point to important roles of miR-324 in skeletal biology. Elucidation of pathways regulated by miR-324 offers promise for the treatment of bone diseases such as osteoporosis.

Five microRNAs in serum are able to differentiate breast cancer patients from healthy individuals

Project description:Breast Cancer is the cancer with most incidence and mortality in women. microRNAs are emerging as novel prognosis/diagnostic tools. Our aim was to identify a serum microRNA signature useful to predict cancer development. We focused on studying the expression levels of 30 microRNAs in the serum of 96 breast cancer patients versus 92 control individuals. Bioinformatic studies provide a microRNA signature, designated as a predictor, based upon the expression levels of 5 microRNAs. Then, we tested the predictor in a group of 60 randomly chosen women. Lastly, a proteomic study unveiled the over-expression and down-regulation of proteins differently expressed in the serum of breast cancer patients versus that of control individuals. Twenty-six microRNAs differentiate cancer tissue from healthy tissue and 16 microRNAs differentiate the serum of cancer patients from that of the control group. The tissue expression of miR-99a-5p, mir-497-5p, miR-362, and miR-1274, and the serum levels of miR-141 correlated with patient survival. Moreover, the predictor consisting of mir-125b-5p, miR-29c-3p, mir-16-5p, miR-1260, and miR-451a was able to differentiate breast cancer patients from controls. The predictor was validated in 20 new cases of breast cancer patients and tested in 60 volunteer women, assigning 11 out of 60 women to the cancer group. An association of low levels of mir-16-5p with a high content of CD44 protein in serum was found. Circulating microRNAs in serum can represent biomarkers for cancer prediction. Their clinical relevance and use of the predictor here described might be of potential importance for breast cancer prediction.

Mir-146a wild-type 3ʹ sequence identity is dispensable for proper innate immune function in vivo

Project description:A long-prevailing model has held that the “seed” region (nucleotides 2-8) of a microRNA is typically sufficient to mediate target recognition and repression. However, numerous recent studies, both within the context of defining miRNA/target pairs by direct physical association and by directly assessing this model in vivo in C. elegans have brought this model into question. To test the importance of miRNA 3' pairing in vivo, in a mammalian system, we engineered a mutant murine mir-146a allele in which the 5' half of the mature microRNA retains the sequence of the wild-type mir-146a but the 3ʹ half has been altered to be anti-complementary to the wild-type miR-146a sequence. Mice homozygous or hemizygous for this mutant allele are phenotypically indistinguishable from wild-type controls and do not recapitulate any of the immunopathology previously described for mir-146a-null mice. Our results strongly support the conclusion that 3ʹ pairing is dispensable in the context of the function of a key mammalian microRNA.

Effects of EVI1 and EVI1?324 mild expression in HeLa cells

Project description:We studied the variations of mRNA amounts after Flag-EVI1, Flag-EVI1?324, or Flag expression in HeLa cells. Despites EVI1 discovery in 1988, its recognized role as a dominant oncogene in myeloid leukemia and more recently in epithelial cancers, only a few target genes were known and it was not clear why EVI1 was involved in cancer progression. Here we obtained the genomic binding occupancy and expression data for EVI1 in human cells. We identified numerous EVI1 target cancer genes and genes controlling cell migration and adhesion. Moreover, we characterized a transcriptional cooperation between AP1 and EVI1 that regulated proliferation and adhesion through a feed-forward loop. This study provides human genome-wide mapping and expression analyses for EVI1 that will be useful for the research community. 12 samples were collected. Each condition was done in 4 replicates, collected 24 hours after transfection (for mild expression of EVI1 or EVI1?324). Transfections with Flag-expressing vector were used as controls.

Systematic analysis of intronic microRNAs reveals cooperativity within the multi-component FTX locus to promote colon cancer development

Project description:Approximately half of all microRNAs reside within intronic regions and are often co-transcribed with their host genes. However, most studies on intronic microRNAs focus on individual microRNAs, and conversely most studies on protein-coding and non-coding genes frequently ignore any intron-derived microRNAs. We hypothesize that the individual components of such multi-genic loci may play cooperative or competing roles in driving disease progression, and that examining the combinatorial effect of these components would uncover deeper insights into their functional importance. To address this, we perform systematic analyses of intronic microRNA:host loci in colon cancer. We observe that the FTX locus, comprising of a long non-coding RNA FTX and multiple intronic microRNAs, is highly upregulated in cancer and demonstrate that cooperativity within this multi-component locus promotes cancer growth. In addition, we show that FTX interacts with DHX9 and DICER and delineate its novel roles in regulating A-to-I RNA editing and microRNA expression. These results show for the first time that a long non-coding RNA can regulate A-to-I RNA editing, further expanding the functional repertoire of long non-coding RNAs. We further demonstrate the inhibitory effects of intronic miR-374b and -545 on the tumor suppressors PTEN and RIG-I to enhance the proto-oncogenic PI3K-AKT signaling. Finally, we show that intronic miR-421 may exert an autoregulatory effect on miR-374b and -545. Taken together, our data unveil the intricate interplay between intronic microRNAs and their host transcripts in the modulation of key signaling pathways and disease progression, adding new perspectives to the functional landscape of multi-genic loci.
