Deep sequencing of microRNA and total RNA reveals distinct microRNA-mRNA signatures that differentiate pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia from non-diseased pancreas tissue


ABSTRACT: Only a limited number of biomarkers guide personalized management of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs). Transcriptome profiling of microRNA (miRs) and mRNA has shown value in segregating PanNETs and identifying patients more likely to respond to treatment. Because miRs are key regulators of mRNA expression, we sought to integrate expression data from both RNA species into miR-mRNA interaction networks to advance our understanding of PanNET pathogenesis. We used deep miR/mRNA sequencing on six low-grade/high-risk, well-differentiated PanNETs compared with seven non-diseased tissues to identify differentially expressed miRs/mRNAs. Then we crossed a list of differentially expressed mRNAs with a list of in silico predicted mRNA targets of the top upregulated/downregulated miRs to generate high probability miR-mRNA interaction networks. Gene ontology and pathway analyses revealed several miR-mRNA pairs implicated in cellular processes and pathways suggesting perturbed neuroendocrine function (miR-7 and Reg family genes), cell adhesion (miR-216 family and NLGN1, NCAM1, and CNTN1; miR-670 and the claudins, CLDN1 and CLDN2), and metabolic processes (miR-670 and BCAT1/MPST; miR-129 and CTH). These novel miR-mRNA interaction networks identified dysregulated pathways not observed when assessing mRNA alone and provide a foundation for further investigation of their utility as diagnostic and predictive biomarkers.
