A multifunctional locus controls motor neuron differentiation through short and long non coding RNAs

ABSTRACT: The transition from dividing progenitors into post-mitotic motor neurons is orchestrated by a series of events mainly studied at the transcriptional level by analyzing the activity of specific programming transcription factors. In this work, we describe that a motor neuron-specific transcriptional unit, harboring a lncRNA (lncMN2-203) and two miRNAs (miR-325-3p and miR-384-5p), controls such transition at the post-transcriptional level. Through the use of in vitro differentiation of mESC and single-cell sequencing of CRISPR/Cas9 mutants, we demonstrate that lncMN2-203 affects motor neuron differentiation by sponging miR-466i-5p and up-regulating its targets; among them Onecut2, which is the upstream regulator of the MN-specific programming factor Islet-1. In synergy with lncMN2-203, instead the depletion of the co-transcribed miR-325-3p and miR-384-5p was found to mainly sustain proliferation-related factors. These findings indicate the functional relevance of the MN2 locus and contribute to elucidate additional layers of regulation controlling the specificity of motor neuron differentiation.

miRNAs' functions in ADHD

Project description:In our previous study, we found that WBC miRNA may serve as ADHD prediction biomarkers. Therefore, we wonder whether these biomarkers miRNAs may regulate the neuron cells. We had Human Cortical Neuronal cells (HCN-2) transfected with miR-126-5p, miR-140-3p or Scrambled control mimics, followed by observing the differentiation of HCN-2 cells. We found that miR-126-5p and miR-140-3p promoted HCN-2 differentiation.

miR-1307-5p counteracts breast cancer angiogenesis and metastasis

Project description:MiRNAs have been shown to alter both protein expression and secretion in different cellular contexts. By combining in vitro, in vivo and in silico techniques, we demonstrated that overexpression of pre-miR-1307 reduced the ability of breast cancer cells to induce endothelial cell sprouting and angiogenesis. However, the molecular mechanism behind this and the effect of the individual mature miRNAs derived from pre-miR-1307 on protein secretion and is largely unknown. Here, we overexpressed miR-1307-3p|0, -3p|1 and 5p|0 in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells and assessed the impact of miRNA overexpression on protein secretion by Mass Spectrometry. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering revealed a distinct phenotype induced by overexpression of miR-1307-5p|0 compared to the controls and to the 5’isomiRs derived from the 3p-arm. Together, our results suggest different impacts of miR-1307-3p and miR-1307-5p on protein secretion which is in line with our in vitro observation that miR-1307-5p, but not the isomiRs derived from the 3p-arm reduce endothelial cell sprouting in vitro. Hence these data support the hypothesis that miR-1307-5p is at least partly responsible for impaired vasculature in tumors overexpressing pre-miR-1307.

Serum microRNA signatures are indicative of skeletal fractures in post-menopausal women with and without type 2 diabetes and influence osteo-genic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells

Project description:The objective of this study was the identification of serum microRNAs that can differentiate osteoporotic fracture patients with and without type-2 diabetes from healthy control subjects. For that purpose circulating microRNAs were profiled by real-time quantitative PCR using a custom 384-well panel in 200 µl serum samples. Univariate and multivariate statistical tools were used in order to identify single as well as combinations of circulating microRNas that were characteristic of patients with prevalent osteoporotic fractures: a qRT-PCR-based classifier consisting of miR-550a-5p, miR-96-5p, miR-32-3p and miR-486-5p can distinguish T2D women with (DMFx) and without fragility fractures (DM) with high specifitiy and sensitivity (AUC = 0.93). A classifier consisting of miR-188-3p, miR-382-3p, miR-942 and miR-155-5p was capable of differentiating between postmenopausal women with osteoporotic fractures and fracture-free controls with an AUC of 0.98.

Atrial appendage miRNA-seq in non-, paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation

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.\

MicroRNAs and histone deacetylase inhibition-mediated protection against inflammatory β-cell damage

Project description:Inflammatory b-cell failure contributes to type 1 and type 2 diabetes pathogenesis. Proinflammatory cytokines cause b-cell dysfunction and apoptosis, and lysine deacetylase inhibitors (KDACi) prevent b-cell failure in vitro and in vivo, in part by reducing NFkB transcriptional activity. Here we investigated the hypothesis that the protective effect of KDACi involves transcriptional regulation of microRNAs (miRs), potential new targets in diabetes treatment. Insulin-producing INS1 cells were cultured with or without the broad-spectrum KDACi Givinostat prior to exposure to the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1-b and IFN-g for 6h or 24h, and miR expression was profiled with miR array. A shortlist of ten miRs (miR-7a-2-3p, miR-29c-3p, miR-96-5p, miR-101a-3p, miR-140-5p, miR-146a-5p, miR-146b-5p, miR-340-5p, miR-384-5p, and miR-455-5p) regulated by both cytokines and Givinostat was verified by qRT-PCR. MiR-146a-5p was strongly regulated by cytokines and KDACi and analyzed further. MiR-146a-5p expression was induced by cytokines in rat and human islets. Cytokine-induced miR-146a-5p expression was specific for INS1 and β-TC3 cells, whereas α-TC1 cells exhibited a higher basal expression. Transfection of INS1 cells with miR-146a-5p reduced the activity of NFκB and iNOS promoters, decreased NO production, and decreased protein levels of iNOS and its own direct target TNF receptor associated factor 6 (TRAF6). MiR-146a-5p was elevated in diabetes-prone BB-DP rat pancreas at diabetes onset, suggesting that miR-146a-5p could play a role in type 1 diabetes development. The miR array of cytokine-exposed INS1 cells rescued by KDACi revealed several other miRs potentially involved in cytokine-induced b-cell apoptosis, demonstrating the strength of this approach.

MicroRNA microarray of CD8+ T cells

Project description:ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE. Smoking suppresses PD-1 expression in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this study, we assess if smoking changed the epigenetic control over CD8+ T cell memory formation through a microRNA (miR) dependent mechanism. METHODS. Phenotypes of CD8+ T cells from smokers and non-smokers, RA and healthy, were analyzed by flow cytometry. A microarray analysis was used to screen for differences in miR expression. Sorted CD8+ cells were in vitro stimulated with nicotine and analyzed for transcription of miRs and genes related to memory programming by qPCR. RESULTS. CD27+CD107a–CD8+ T cells, defining a naïve-memory population, had low expression of PD-1. Additionally, the CD27+ population was more frequent in smokers (p=0.0089). Smokers were recognized by differential expression of 8 miRs. Let-7c-5p, let-7d-5p and let-7e-5p, miR-92a-3p, miR-150-5p and miR-181-5p were up regulated, while miR-3196 and miR-4723-5p were down regulated. These miRs were predicted to target proteins within the FOXO-signaling pathway involved in CD8+ memory programming. Furthermore, miR-92a-3p was differentially expressed in CD8+ cells with naïve-memory predominance. Nicotine exposure of CD8+ cells induced the expression of miR-150-5p and miR-181a-5p in the naïve-memory cells in vitro. Additionally, nicotine exposure inverted the ratio between mRNAs of proteins in the FOXO pathway and their targeting miRs. CONCLUSIONS. Smokers have a high prevalence of CD8+ T cells with a naïve-memory phenotype. These cells express a miR profile that interacts with the memory programming conducted through the FOXO pathway.

Co-expression of microrna and mrna in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia patients [miRNA]

Project description:The study integrated both miRNA and mRNA profiles to explore novel miRNA-mRNA interactions that affect the regulatory patterns in de novo CN-AML. A total of 637 significant negative correlations (FDR <0.05) were reported. Network analysis revealed a cluster of 12 miRNAs that represents the majority of the mRNA targets. Within the cluster, five miRNAs; miR-495-3p, miR-185-5p, let-7i-5p, miR-409-3p, and miR-127-3p were suggested to play a pivotal role in the regulation of CN-AML as they are associated with negative regulation of myeloid leukocyte differentiation, negative regulation of myeloid cell differentiation, positive regulation of haematopoiesis, and hematopoiesis and its regulation. Three novel interactions in CN-AML were predicted, let-7i-5p:HOXA9, miR-495-3p:PIK3R1 and miR-495-3p:CDK6 which are responsible in regulating myeloid cell differentiation in CN-AML.
