Deregulated Expression of Circular RNAs in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are dynamically regulated during differentiation and show cell-type specific expression, which is altered in cancer and can have a direct impact on various hallmarks of cancer. In accordance, we hypothesized that circRNA expression is deregulated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and that circRNA candidates might contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease. To identify leukemia-specific and differentiation-independent changes in circRNA expression, we determined the whole circular RNAome of 61 AML patients and 16 healthy hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) samples using ribosomal RNA-depleted RNA sequencing. We found hundreds of circRNAs that were differentially expressed between AML and healthy HSPCs. Gene set analysis found that many of these circRNAs were transcribed from genes implicated in leukemia biology. We discovered a circRNA derived from the T cell transcription factor gene BCL11B, circBCL11B, which was exclusively expressed in AML patients and associated with a T cell-like gene expression signature. We were able to validate this finding in an independent cohort of 332 AML patients, and knockdown of circBCL11B had a negative effect on leukemic cell proliferation, thereby suggesting circBCL11B as a novel functionally relevant candidate in AML pathogenesis. In summary, our study enables comprehensive insights into circRNA expression changes upon leukemic transformation, and provides valuable information on the biology of leukemic cells and potential novel pathway dependencies relevant for AML therapy.

Circular RNA profile of acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a widespread class of non-coding RNAs, which drew little attention in the past. Recently, limited data showed their promising future to act as biomarkers in human cancer, but the characteristics and functions remain largely unknown in hematopoietic malignancies, especially in leukemia. In this study, with the help of circRNA microarray, we demonstrated the expression profile of circRNAs in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, and identified a large number of circRNAs possibly expressed in a leukemia specific manner. We also described a circRNA signature related to AML risk-status based on the bioinformatics prediction.

Microarray expression profile analysis of circular RNAs in human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Project description:To explore the potential involvement of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) oncogenesis, we conducted circRNA profiling in six pairs of human PDAC and adjacent normal tissue by microarray. Our results showed that clusters of circRNAs were aberrantly expressed in PDAC compared with normal samples, and provided potential targets for future treatment of PDAC and novel insights into PDAC biology.

Neural circular RNAs are derived from synaptic genes and regulated by development and plasticity

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs), formed by the atypical head-to-tail splicing of exons, have re-emerged as a potentially interesting RNA species given recent reports of a surprising diversity and abundance of circRNA in organisms ranging from worm to human. Here, using deep RNA sequencing, we profiled different RNA species in mouse and observed that circRNAs are significantly enriched in neural tissue, relative to other tissues. Using PacBio sequencing, we determined, for the first time, the circular structure of this population of circRNAs as well as their full-length sequences. We discovered that a disproportionate fraction of the brain circRNA population is derived from host genes that code for synaptic proteins. Moreover, based on the separate profiling of the RNAs localized in neuronal cell bodies and neuropil (enriched in axons and dendrites), we found that, on average, circular RNAs are more enriched in the neuropil than their host gene mRNA isoforms. Using high resolution in situ hybridization we, for the first time, directly visualized circRNA punctae in the dendrites of neurons. The host gene origin and location of the circRNA in neurons suggest the possibility that circRNAs might participate in the regulation of synaptic function and plasticity. Consistent with this idea, we observed via profiling at different developmental stages, that the abundance of many circular RNAs changes abruptly at a time corresponding to synaptogenesis. In addition, following a homeostatic downscaling of neuronal activity many circRNAs exhibit significant up or down-regulation. These data indicate that brain circRNAs are positioned to respond to and regulate synaptic function.

CircRNAome diversity in human mature B-cells, T-cells and monocytes

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) were shown to be expressed in all human tissue but detailed insight in circRNA diversity among tissues and cellular differentiation stages is lagging behind. This study provides comprehensive data on circRNA expression in the three major mature blood cell populations of healthy subjects. Over 36,000 circRNAs were identified in B-cells, T-cells and monocytes, 34% of which were novel. In addition, putative new genes producing circRNAs were uncovered. The definition of cell type specific circRNA expression signatures revealed that alternative circularization is a common phenomenon showing cell population specific patterns. Abundance of circRNAs resulted largely uncorrelated to host gene linear expression. Several circRNAs were validated, including circular isoforms expressed by leukemia-associated genes PAX5 and IKZF1. These results and new data will help to further our understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying cell biology of blood cells, and are a reference to explore circRNA alterations in haematological diseases.

Analysis of intron sequences reveals hallmarks of circular RNA biogenesis in animals

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a large class of animal RNAs. To investigate possible circRNA functions, it is important to understand circRNA biogenesis. Besides human Alu repeats, sequence features that promote exon circularization are largely unknown. We experimentally identified new circRNAs in C. elegans. Reverse complementary sequences between introns bracketing circRNAs were significantly enriched compared to linear controls. By scoring the presence of reverse complementary sequences in human introns we predicted and experimentally validated novel circRNAs. We show that introns bracketing circRNAs are highly enriched in RNA editing or hyper-editing events. Knockdown of the double-strand RNA editing ADAR1 enzyme significantly and specifically up-regulated circRNA expression. Together, our data support a model of animal circRNA biogenesis in which competing RNA:RNA interactions of introns form larger structures which promote circularization of embedded exons, while ADAR1 antagonizes circRNA expression by melting stems within these interactions. Thus, we assign a new function to ADAR1. Examination of 12 samples in different stages of C.elegans development.

Structured elements drive circular RNA translation and expand the human proteome, part4

Project description:The human genome encodes tens of thousands circular RNAs (circRNAs) whose levels correlate with many disease states. While studies have focused on the non-coding functions of circRNAs, emerging evidence suggests that a handful of circRNAs encode proteins. Translation canonically starts by recognition of mRNA 5’cap and scanning to the start codon; how circRNA translation initiates remains unclear. Here, we developed a high-throughput screen to systematically identify and quantify RNA sequences that can direct circRNA translation. We identify and validate over 17,000 circRNA internal ribosome entry sites (IRES) and reveal that 18S rRNA complementarity and a structured RNA element on the IRES are important for facilitating circRNA cap-independent translation. With genomic and peptidomic analyses of the IRES, we identified nearly 1,000 putative endogenous protein-coding circRNAs and hundreds of translational units encoded by these circRNAs. We further characterized circFGFR1p, a protein encoded by circFGFR1, functions as a negative regulator of FGFR1 to suppress cell growth under stress conditions. The circRNA proteome may be important links among circRNA, biological control, and disease.

Circular RNAs in the mammalian brain are highly abundant, conserved, and dynamically expressed

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are an endogenous class of animal RNAs. Despite their abundance, their function and expression in the nervous system are unknown. Therefore, we sequenced RNA from different brain regions, primary neurons, isolated synapses, as well as during neuronal differentiation. Using these and other available data, we discovered and analyzed thousands of neuronal human and mouse circRNAs. circRNAs were extraordinarily enriched in the mammalian brain, well conserved in sequence, often expressed as circRNAs in both human and mouse, and sometimes even detected in Drosophila brains. circRNAs were overall upregulated during neuronal differentiation, highly enriched in synapses, and often differentially expressed compared to their mRNA isoforms. circRNA expression correlated negatively with expression of the RNA-editing enzyme ADAR1. Knockdown of ADAR1 induced elevated circRNA expression. Together, we provide a circRNA brain expression atlas and evidence for important circRNA functions and values as biomarkers. To assess circRNA expression in mammalian brain, we sequenced and analyzed mouse brain regions (hippocampus, cerebellum, prefrontal cortex and olfactory bulb), various neuronal differentiation (mouse P19 and human SH-SY5Y cells) and maturation (mouse cortical neurons) stages, and subcellular compartments in mouse (synaptoneurosomal fraction, cytoplasmic fraction, whole brain lysate).
