Project description:Wound healing is facilitated by neoangiogenesis, a complex process that is essential to tissue repair in response to injury. MicroRNAs are small, non-coding RNAs that can regulate the wound healing process including stimulation of impaired angiogenesis that is associated with Type-2 diabetes (T2D). Expression of miR-409-3p was significantly increased in the non-healing skin wounds of patients with T2D compared to the non-wounded normal skin, and in the skin of a murine model with T2D. In response to high glucose, neutralization of miR-409-3p markedly improved EC growth and migration in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), promoted wound closure and angiogenesis as measured by increased CD31 in human skin organoids, while overexpression attenuated EC angiogenic responses. Bulk mRNA-Seq transcriptomic profiling revealed BTG2 as a target of miR-409-3p, where overexpression of miR-409-3p significantly decreased BTG2 mRNA and protein expression. A 3′ untranslated region (3′-UTR) luciferase assay of BTG2 revealed decreased luciferase activity with overexpression of miR-409-3p, while inhibition had opposite effects. Mechanistically, in response to high glucose, miR-409-3p deficiency in ECs resulted in increased mTOR phosphorylation meanwhile BTG2 silencing significantly decreased mTOR phosphorylation. Endothelial specific and tamoxifen-inducible miR-409-3p knock out mice (MiR-409IndECKO) with hyperglycemia that underwent dorsal skin wounding showed significant improvement of wound closure, increased blood flow, granulation tissue thickness (GTT), and CD31 that correlated with increased BTG2 expression. Taken together, our results show that miR-409-3p is a critical mediator of impaired angiogenesis in diabetic skin wound healing.

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:This study aimed to elucidate the role of microRNA miR-92a-3p in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. We focused on understanding how miR-92a-3p in exosomes derived from ectopic lesions influences the behavior of endometrial cells, DRG neurons, and Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs), and its potential as a non-invasive diagnostic biomarker. Our findings revealed that MiR-92a-3p is significantly upregulated in exosomes derived from ectopic lesions of adenomyosis. This upregulation was associated with enhanced migration and invasion capabilities in eutopic endometrial cells, DRG neurons, and HUVECs. Furthermore, the study demonstrated a significant correlation between the levels of MiR-92a-3p in urinary exosomes and the clinical symptoms of adenomyosis, suggesting its potential as a non-invasive biomarker for the disease. This study elucidates an exosomal signaling process via miR-92a-3p that drives pathological infiltration and angiogenesis to promote adenomyosis progression. Upregulated miR-92a-3p in biofluid exosomes shows promising non-invasive biomarker potential for diagnosis and monitoring of this disease. Our findings unveil novel targets and tools for improved clinical management.

Project description:Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder, characterized by cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, cardiomyocyte disarray and fibrosis, which has a prevalence of ~1:200-500 and predisposes individuals to sudden death and heart failure. The mechanisms through which diverse HCM-causing mutations cause cardiac dysfunction remain mostly unknown and their identification may reveal new therapeutic avenues. MicroRNAs have emerged as critical regulators of gene expression and disease phenotype in various pathologies. We explored whether miRNAs could play a role in HCM pathogenesis and offer potential therapeutic targets. Methods and Results: Using high-throughput miRNA expression profiling and qPCR analysis in two distinct mouse models of HCM, we found that miR-199a-3p expression levels are upregulated in mutant mice compared to age- and treatment-matched wild-type mice. We also found that miR-199a-3p expression is enriched in cardiac non-myocytes compared to cardiomyocytes. When we expressed miR-199a-3p mimic in cultured primary cardiac non-myocytes and analyzed the conditioned media by proteomics, we found that several ECM proteins (e.g., TSP2, FBLN3, COL11A1, LYOX) were differentially expressed. We confirmed our proteomics findings by qPCR analysis of selected mRNAs and demonstrated that miR-199a-3p mimic expression in cardiac non-myocytes drives upregulation of ECM genes including Tsp2, Fbln3, Pcoc1, Col1a1 and Col3a1. To examine the role of miR-199a-3p in vivo, we inhibited its function using lock-nucleic acid (LNA)-based inhibitors (antimiR-199a-3p) in an HCM mouse model. Our results revealed that progression of cardiac fibrosis is attenuated when miR-199a-3p function is inhibited in mild-to-moderate HCM. Finally, guided by computational target prediction algorithms, we identified mRNAs Cd151 and Itga3 as direct targets of miR-199a-3p and have shown that miR-199a-3p mimic expression negatively regulates AKT activation in cardiac non-myocytes. Conclusions: Altogether, our results suggest that miR-199a-3p may contribute to cardiac fibrosis in HCM through its actions in cardiac non-myocytes. Thus, inhibition of miR-199a-3p in mild-to-moderate HCM may offer therapeutic benefit in combination with complementary approaches that target the primary defect in cardiac myocytes.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA). However, knowledge of the biological roles of lncRNAs is limited in OA. We aimed to explore the biological function and molecular mechanism of HOTTIP in chondrogenesis and cartilage degradation. We used the human mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) model of chondrogenesis, in parallel with, tissue biopsies from normal and OA cartilage to detect HOTTIP, CCL3, and miR-455-3p expression in vitro. Biological interactions between HOTTIP and miR-455-3p were determined by RNA silencing and overexpression in vitro. We evaluated the effect of HOTTIP on chondrogenesis and degeneration, and its regulation of miR-455-3p via competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA). Our in vitro ceRNA findings were further confirmed within animal models in vivo. Mechanisms of ceRNAs were determined by bioinformatic analysis, a luciferase reporter system, RNA pull-down, and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. We found reduced miR-455-3p expression and significantly upregulated lncRNA HOTTIP and CCL3 expression in OA cartilage tissues and chondrocytes. The expression of HOTTIP and CCL3 was increased in chondrocytes treated with interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in vitro. Knockdown of HOTTIP promoted cartilage-specific gene expression and suppressed CCL3. Conversely, HOTTIP overexpression reduced cartilage-specific genes and increased CCL3. Notably, HOTTIP negatively regulated miR-455-3p and increased CCL3 levels in human primary chondrocytes. Mechanistic investigations indicated that HOTTIP functioned as ceRNA for miR-455-3p enhanced CCL3 expression. Taken together, the ceRNA regulatory network of HOTTIP/miR-455-3p/CCL3 plays a critical role in OA pathogenesis and suggests HOTTIP is a potential target in OA therapy.

Project description:Angiogenesis is critical for tissue repair following myocardial infarction (MI), which is exacerbated under insulin resistance or diabetes. MicroRNAs are regulators of angiogenesis. We examined the metabolic regulation of miR-409-3p in post-infarct angiogenesis. miR-409-3p was increased in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and in a mouse model of acute MI. In endothelial cells (ECs), miR-409-3p was induced by palmitate, while vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) decreased its expression. Overexpression of miR-409-3p decreased EC proliferation and migration in the presence of palmitate, whereas inhibition had the opposite effects. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) profiling in ECs identified DNAJ homolog subfamily B member 9 (DNAJB9) as a target of miR-409-3p. Overexpression of miR-409-3p decreased DNAJB9 mRNA and protein expression by 47% and 31% respectively, while enriching DNAJB9 mRNA by 1.9-fold after Argonaute2 microribonucleoprotein immunoprecipitation. These effects were mediated through p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in EC-specific miR-409-3p knockout (KO) mice (miR-409ECKO) fed a high-fat, high-sucrose diet increased isolectin B4 (53.3%), CD31 (56%), and DNAJB9 (41.5%). The left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) was improved by 28%, and the infarct area was decreased by 33.8% in miR-409ECKO compared with control mice. These findings support an important role of miR-409-3p in the angiogenic EC response to myocardial ischemia.
