Project description:Aberrant expression of oncomicroRNAs and tumor suppressor miRNAs (tsmiRs) contributes to the carcinogenesis and progression of cervical cancer (CC). miR-124-3p, miR-23b-3p, and miR-218-5p are tsmiRs that modulate oncogenes regulating cellular processes implicated in CC progression. This research aimed to explore transcriptomic changes in C-33A and CaSki cells following the overexpression of miR-124-3p, miR-23b-3p, and miR-218-5p, and to identify the biological processes (BPs) and pathways modulated by differentially expressed genes (DEGs). A total of 100 nM of miR-124-3p, miR-23b-3p, and miR-218-5p mimetics were transfected into C-33A and CaSki cells, and transcriptome changes were analyzed using RNA-seq. The Galaxy and R-Studio platforms were employed to identify DEGs, while BPs and pathways regulated by DEGs were identified through the DAVID platform. Transcriptional changes revealed both differences and similarities between cell lines and miRNAs. In C-33A cells, miR-124-3p and miR-218 regulated direct and indirect targets involved in the cell cycle and apoptosis. In CaSki cells, apoptosis and viral carcinogenesis were regulated by genes modulated directly or indirectly by miR-124-3p and miR-23b-3p. These tsmiRs demonstrated synergistic activity, regulating multiple transcripts that modulate processes and pathways involved in CC progression, with or without HPV. These findings suggest that miR-124-3p, miR-23b-3p, and miR-218-5p may represent promising therapeutic alternatives for CC treatment.

Project description:Oxaliplatin (oxPt) resistance in colorectal cancers (CRC) is a major unsolved problem. Consequently, predictive markers and a better understanding of resistance mechanisms are urgently needed. To investigate if the recently identified predictive miR-625-3p is functionally involved in oxPt resistance, stable and inducible models of miR-625-3p dysregulation were analyzed. Ectopic expression of miR-625-3p in CRC cells led to increased resistance towards oxPt. The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase 6 (MAP2K6/MKK6) – an activator of p38 MAPK - was identified as a functional target of miR-625-3p, and, in agreement, was down-regulated in patients not responding to oxPt therapy. The miR-625-3p resistance phenotype could be reversed by anti-miR-625-3p treatment and by ectopic expression of a miR-625-3p insensitive MAP2K6 variant. Transcriptome, proteome and phosphoproteome profiles revealed inactivation of MAP2K6-p38 signaling as a possible driving force behind oxPt resistance. We conclude that miR-625-3p induces oxPt resistance by abrogating MAP2K6-p38 regulated apoptosis and cell cycle control networks.

Project description:Purpose: Identify whether recombinant ncRNAs are recognized by mammalian cells and processed into mature microRNAs, thus leading to the alteration of downstream target genes. In addition, we also explored whether cleavage is Dicer dependent. Methods: HEK293T (Dicer-WT) and 424 (Dicer-KO) cell lines were treated with 20nM of control tRNA (MSA), nCAR/miR-34a-5p, or nCAR/miR-34a-3p in triplicate. Results: Read counts of known miRNAs were analyzed using a miRDeep module, and read counts derived from nCAR/miR-34a-5p or nCAR/miR-124a-3p transfection were obtained by mapping sequence reads by an in-house developed PERL script. EdgeR was used to analyze significant (P-value < 0.05 and log2CPM > 6) differentially expressed miRNAs and sRNAs. Conclusions: Upon transfection of recombinant RNA agents in mammalian cells, nCAR/miR-34a-5p became the most dominant miRNA and was processed in a Dicer dependent manner, while nCAR/miR-124a-3p become the 7th most abundant miRNA and displayed comparable levels with or without Dicer. In both cases, different isoforms of the mature miRNA sequence were generated.

Project description:MicroRNA-124a (miR-124a) is one of the most abundantly expressed miroRNAs in the central nervous system (CNS) and encoded by three genomic loci of miR-124a-1/2/3 in mammals; however, its in vivo roles and mechanisms in neuronal development and function remain ambiguous. In the present study, we investigated the effect of loss of miR-124a on neuronal differentiation in mice and embryonic stem (ES) cells. Since primary miR-124a-3 shows a background level expression in the brain and we could not obtain miR-124a-1/2/3 triple knockout (TKO) mice by mating, we generated and analyzed miR-124a-1/2 double knockout (DKO) mice. We found that miR-124a-1/2 DKO mice exhibit perinatal lethality. RNA-sequencing analysis demonstrated that the expression levels of proneural and neuronal marker genes are almost unchanged between the control and miR-124a-1/2 DKO brains, while the genes related to neuronal synaptic formation and function were enriched in the down-regulated genes of the miR-124a-1/2 DKO brain. In addition, the transcription regulator Tardbp/TDP-43, whose loss leads to defects in neuronal maturation and function, was inactivated in the miR-124a-1/2 DKO brain. We next generated miR-124a-1/2/3 TKO ES cells by using the CRISPR-Cas9 system as an alternative to miR-124a-1/2/3 TKO mice. Phase-contrast microscopic, immunocytochemical, and gene expression analyses showed that miR-124a-1/2/3 TKO ES cell lines can differentiate into neurons. Collectively, these results suggest that miR-124a plays roles in neuronal maturation rather than neurogenesis in vivo, and may advance our understanding of functional roles of microRNAs in CNS development in vivo.

Project description:Lhx2 is a retinal progenitor cell transcription factor critical for eye development. We previously reported that conditional inactivation of Lhx2 at the start of mouse retinal neurogenesis disrupted retinal progenitor cell (RPC) proliferation, greatly reduced the RPC pool and altered neurogenic output as indicated by changes in the production of multiple fated precursor populations. To identify genes whose expression levels are dependent on Lhx2 at this stage of development, Lhx2 conditional inactivation was initiated at E11.5 in RPCs with the progenitor Cre driver Hes1CreERT2 and retinal tissue was collected at E15.5 for RNA sequencing. The gene expression profiles of Lhx2 CKO retinas were compared to control (Lhx2 conditional heterozygotes) were compared. Downregulated and upregulated gene expression was observed, with some likely due to direct and indirect regulation by Lhx2 within RPCs and others due to changes in differentiation and the altered neurogenic output.

Project description:The role of microRNAs (miRNAs) during mouse early development, especially in endoderm germ layer formation, is largely unknown. Here, using miRNA profiling, we discovered that miR-124a negatively regulates endoderm lineage commitment in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). We showed that miR-124a inhibits endoderm differentiation in vitro through targeting the 3’ untranslated region (UTR) of Sox17 and Gata6, revealing the existence of an interplay between miR-124a and Sox17/Gata6 transcription factors in hepato-specific gene regulation. Besides, we proposed an in vivo system that utilizes teratoma to evaluate the functional role of miRNA in lineage specification. We demonstrated that ectopic expression of miR-124a in teratomas suppressed endoderm and mesoderm lineage differentiation while augmented the differentiation of ectoderm lineage. Collectively, our findings suggested that miR-124a plays a significant role in mESCs lineage commitment.

Project description:Both microRNAs and alternative pre-mRNA splicing have been implicated in the development of the nervous system (NS), but functional interactions between these two pathways are poorly understood. We demonstrate that the neuron-specific microRNA miR-124a directly targets PTBP1/PTB/hnRNPI mRNA, which encodes a global repressor of alternative pre-mRNA splicing in non-neuronal cells. Among the targets of PTBP1 is a critical cassette exon in the pre-mRNA of PTBP2/nPTB/brPTB, an NS-enriched PTBP1 homolog. When this exon is skipped, PTBP2 mRNA is subject to nonsense-mediated decay. During neuronal differentiation, miR-124a reduces PTBP1 levels leading to the accumulation of correctly spliced PTBP2 mRNA and a dramatic increase in PTBP2 protein. These events culminate in the transition from non-NS to NS-specific alternative splicing patterns. We also present evidence that miR-124a plays a key role in the differentiation of progenitor cells to mature neurons. Thus, miR-124a promotes NS development at least in part by regulating an intricate network of NS-specific alternative splicing. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression of CAD cells over-expressing miR-124a-2. Experiment Overall Design: Expression data from CAD cells transfected with plasmid expressing miR-124a-2.

Project description:We investigated functions of miRNAs at the level of the whole transcriptome of primary neurons. We transfected mouse E17.5 forebrain primary neuronal cultures (at four to six days of in vitro development) with miRNA mimics and inhibitors. After approximately 48 h post transfection we profiled the effect of these transfections on gene expression with Illumina mRNA microarrays. Cultures were transfected with mimics and inhibitors of five mouse miRNAs (mmu-miR-124, mmu-miR-434-3p, mmu-miR-143, mmu-miR-145 and mmu-miR-25) and with a mimic of a non-mouse miRNA (cel-miR-67). Direct widespread inhibition of gene expression by the perturbed miRNAs was evident when gene expression in cultures transfected with miRNA mimics was compared to those transfected with the inhibitors (or to matched mock transfected cultures): 3-prime UTRs of downregulated transcripts were significantly enriched in seed matching sites for the perturbed miRNAs. Interestingly, analysis of differential gene expression in mock transfected cells (identified through comparison of mock transfected cultures with matched untreated cultures) revealed that genes inhibited by miRNAs were enriched in genes upregulated in mock transfected cultures. This inhibition was the most efficient by the two neuronal miRNAs under investigation (mmu-miR-124 and mmu-miR-434-3p). To investigate if miRNA mediated inhibition of stress induced genes (i.e. stress associated with transfections) was also the case in other stresses, we profiled gene expression changes triggered by chronic neuronal depolarisation. For this, we treated the cultures with KCl (15 mM, 48 h) and compared them to matched untreated cultures. We found that genes upregulated by KCl had a significant intersection with those upregulated by the mock transfection. Moreover, we also found that genes upregulated by KCl had a significant intersection with genes inhibited by mmu-miR-124 and mmu-miR-434-3p. Therefore we concluded that neuronal miRNAs stabilise the neuronal transcriptome by inhibiting stress inducible genes.
