Project description:Osteoporosis is a significant health concern, and the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cell growth and development regulation is well recognized. High-throughput sequencing technology is widely employed in current research. This study aimed to identify and validate miRNAs associated with osteoporosis. Bone specimens were collected from patients with osteoporosis (n=3) and without osteoporosis (n=3). High-throughput sequencing was utilized to screen for miRNAs, followed by analysis using volcano maps, Wayne maps, gene ontology (GO) analysis, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis. The identified miRNAs were further confirmed using qRT-PCR. Sequencing analysis revealed 12 down-regulated and five upregulated miRNAs in osteoporosis. GO and KEGG analysis indicated the association of these miRNAs with bone metabolism. qRT-PCR results demonstrated a significant decrease in miR-140-5p, miR-127-3p, miR-199b-5p, miR-181a-5p, miR-181d-5p, and miR-542-3p (all P<0.05) in osteoporosis compared to controls, while miR-486-3p and miR-486-5p exhibited a significant increase (P<0.05). This study utilized high-throughput sequencing to identify differential miRNA expression in individuals with osteoporosis. Specifically, six miRNAs (miR-140-5p, miR-127-3p, miR-199b-5p, miR-181a-5p, miR-181d-5p, and miR-542) showed decreased expression, whereas two miRNAs (miR-486-3p and miR-486-5p) exhibited increased expression. The differential expression of these miRNAs may serve as predictive indicators, potentially aiding in the prognosis and management of osteoporosis.

Project description:From a previous microarray study we developed a small chondrogenesis model. We performed qPCR and measured how knockdown of miR-199a-5p or miR-199b-5p could modulate chondrogenesis. Several experiments were used to determine the parameters of this model. We utilised parameter scan and manual sliding to refine the model. Within are two models - an initial model which only comprises of genes which we have data for, and an enhanced model which expands of the initial model to make more predictions - e.g. how miR-140-5p is indirectly regulated by miR-199a-5p and miR-199b-5p.

Project description:Aims: Differential expression profiles of microRNAs (miRNAs) are associated with autoimmune diseases. This study sought to elucidate the plasma exosomal miRNA expression profiles of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and their potential clinical significance. Methods: In the screening phase, small RNA sequencing was performed to characterize dysregulated exosome-derived miRNAs in the plasma samples from six RA patients and six healthy controls. In the independent validation phase, the candidate plasma exosomal miRNAs were verified in 40 RA patients and 32 healthy controls using quantitative real-time PCR. The association of miRNA levels with clinical characteristics in RA patients was tested. The value of these miRNAs in diagnosing RA was assessed with the receiver operating characteristic curve. Results: Totally 177 and 129 miRNAs were upregulated and downregulated, respectively in RA patients versus healthy controls in the screening phase. There were 10 candidate plasma exosomal miRNAs selected for the next identification. Compared with the healthy controls, eight plasma exosomal miRNAs (let-7a-5p, let-7b-5p, let-7d-5p, let-7f-5p, let-7g-5p, let-7i-5p, miR-128-3p, and miR-25-3p) were significantly elevated in RA patients, but miR-144-3p and miR-15a-5p expression exhibited no significant changes. The let-7a-5p and miR-25-3p levels were associated with rheumatoid factor-positive phenotype in RA patients. For the eight miRNAs, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) ranged from 0.641 to 0.843, and their combination had a high diagnostic accuracy for RA (AUC = 0.916). Conclusions: Our study illustrates that novel exosomal miRNAs in the plasma may represent potential noninvasive biomarkers for RA.

Project description:Oxysterols, oxidized derivatives of cholesterol, act in breast cancer (BC) as selective estrogen receptor modulators and affect cholesterol homeostasis, drug transport, nuclear and cell receptors, and other signaling proteins. Using overlapping data from patients with early-stage estrogen receptor-positive BC—high-coverage targeted DNA sequencing (99 patients, 113 genes), mRNA sequencing (67 patients), and full miRNome by microarrays (123 patients)—we describe complex mRNA-miRNA and miRNA-miRNA interaction (correlation) networks, with validation in two carefully curated public datasets (n=538 in total) and 11 databases. The ESR1-CH25H-INSIG1-ABCA9 axis was the most prominent, being interconnected through hsa-miR-125b-5p, but also hsa-miR-99a-5p, hsa-miR-100-5p, hsa miR 143 3p, hsa-199b-5p, hsa-miR-376a-3p, and hsa-miR-376c-3p. Mutations in SC5D, CYP46A1, and its functionally linked gene set were associated with multiple differentially expressed genes. STARD5 was upregulated in patients with positive lymph node status. High expression of miR-19b-3p was weakly associated with poor survival in multiple datasets. This is the first detailed dedicated study of interactions between DNA variation and mRNA expression of oxysterol-related genes, the miRNA transcriptome, and clinical factors in BC.

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.\

Project description:WNT signaling is fundamental to bone health and its aberrant activation leads to skeletal pathologies. A heterozygous missense mutation p.C218G in WNT1, a key WNT pathway ligand, leads to severe early-onset osteoporosis with multiple peripheral and spinal fractures. Despite the severe skeletal manifestations, conventional bone markers are normal in mutation-positive patients. The objective of this study was to find novel biomarkers that differentiate between WNT1 mutation-positive and -negative subjects. We evaluated serum levels of 192 miRNAs in 12 mutation-positive (median age 39 years, range 11-76 years) and 12 mutation-negative (35 years, range 9-59 years) subjects from two Finnish families. The results indicate significant differences in circulating miRNA profiles with 2 upregulated (miR-18a-3p, miR-223-3p) and 6 downregulated miRNAs (miR-22-3p, miR-31-5p, miR-34a-5p, miR-143-5p miR-423-5p, miR 423-3p) in the mutation-positive subjects. Three of these (miR-22-3p, miR-34a-5p, and miR-31-5p) are known inhibitors of WNT signaling: miR-22-3p and miR-34a-5p target WNT1 mRNA and miR-31-5p is predicted to bind to the WNT1 3’UTR. Our results suggest that the WNT1 mutation disrupts a feed-back regulation between these miRNAs and WNT1, providing new insights into the pathogenesis of WNT-related bone disorders. Future studies are warranted to explore the potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications of these findings in osteoporosis.

Project description:Initial screening, the expression of 125 mature miRNA was compared between pooled control and autism samples by two microarray analysis. The differential expression of 14 miRNA was further validated by SYBR green quantitative PCR of Individual samples. Thirteen miRNAs were differentially expressed in autistic individuals compared to the controls (8 upregulated and 5 down regulated). miR-151a-3p, miR-181b-5p, miR-320a, miR-328, miR-433, miR-489, miR-572, and miR-663a were downregulated, while miR-101-3p, miR-106b-5p, miR-130a-3p, miR-195-5p, and miR-19b-3p were upregulated. We have identified a set of serum miRNAs that could be used as non-invasive biomarkers for autism.
