A diversity of conserved and novel ovarian microRNAs in the Speckled Wood (Pararge aegeria)

ABSTRACT: microRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of animal development and other processes, and impart robustness to living systems through post-transcriptional regulation of specific mRNA transcripts. It is postulated that newly emergent miRNAs are generally expressed at low levels and with spatiotemporally restricted expression domains, thus minimising effects of spurious targeting on animal transcriptomes. Here we present ovarian miRNA transcriptome data for two geographically distinct populations of the Speckled Wood butterfly (Pararge aegeria). A total of 74 miRNAs were identified, including 11 newly discovered and evolutionarily-young miRNAs, bringing the total of miRNA genes known from P. aegeria up to 150. We find a positive correlation between miRNA age and expression level. A common set of 55 miRNAs are expressed in both populations. From this set, we identify seven that are consistently either ovary-specific or highly upregulated in ovaries relative to other tissues. This ovary set includes miRNAs with known contributions to ovarian function in other insect species with similar ovaries and mode of oogenesis, including miR-989 and miR-2763, plus new candidates for ovarian function. We also note that conserved miRNAs are overrepresented in the ovary relative to the whole body.

MicroRNA profiling of advanced serous ovarian carcinoma

Project description:Objectives: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression primarily through post-transcriptional modification. We tested the hypothesis that miRNA expression is associated with overall survival in advanced ovarian cancer. Methods: Cases included newly diagnosed patients with stage III or IV serous ovarian cancer. RNA from a training set of 62 cases was hybridized to an miRNA microarray containing 470 mature human transcripts. Cox regression was performed to identify miRNAs associated with overall survival. External validation was performed using quantitative RT-PCR miRNA assays in an independent test set of 123 samples. MiRNA targets and associated biologic pathways were predicted in silico. Results: Of all patients, 80% had high-grade, stage IIIC tumors and 64% underwent optimal cytoreduction. The median survival for the entire cohort was 49 ± 4 months. The training set identified 3 miRNAs associated with survival - miR-337, miR-410, and miR-645. An miRNA signature containing miR-410 and miR-645 was most strongly associated with overall survival in the training set (HR=2.96, 95% CI: 1.51-5.78). This miRNA survival signature (MiSS) was validated in the test set (HR=1.71, 95% CI: 1.05-2.78). The MiSS was independent of FIGO stage and surgical debulking. Conclusions: The data suggest that an MiSS that contains miR-410 and miR-645 is negatively associated with overall survival in advanced serous ovarian cancer. This signature, when further validated, may be useful in individualizing care for the ovarian cancer patient. Pathway analyses identify biologically plausible mechanisms. Cases included newly diagnosed patients with stage III or IV serous ovarian cancer. RNA from a training set of 62 cases was hybridized to an miRNA microarray containing 470 mature human transcripts. Cox regression was performed to identify miRNAs associated with overall survival.

MicroRNA-dependent transposable element transcriptional silencing in Drosophila somatic ovarian cells [RNA-Seq]

Project description:RNAi-related silencing mechanisms concern as diverse biological processes as gene regulation, mostly via the miRNA pathway, and defense against molecular parasites, mainly controlled by the siRNA and the piRNA pathways. In Drosophila somatic ovarian cells, transposable elements (TEs) are repressed by chromatin changes induced by Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs). We show here that a functional miRNA pathway is required for this piRNA-mediated TE transcriptional silencing to operate in this tissue. A general miRNA depletion, caused by tissue- and stage-specific knock-down of either drosha (involved in miRNA biogenesis) or AG01 and gawky (both responsible for miRNA activity) resulted in chromatin-mediated TE transcriptional desilencing and piRNA loss. For unknown reasons, the amount of piRNA produced by the traffic jam 3' UTR was apparently unaffected in miRNA-defective somatic ovarian cells. Although weaker, similar phenotypes could also be observed upon individual titration (by expression of the complementary miR-sponge) of at least three miRNAs, miR-14, miR-34 and miR-989. This work adds the maintenance of genome stability, via the piRNA-mediated TE repression, to the list of the already reported miRNA-controlled biological functions. Study of small regulatory RNA populations present in ovaries expressing either wild-type Drosha protein or the trans-dominant negative Drosha protein coupled or not with the Tub-GAL80[ts]GAL4 inhibitor.

MicroRNAs Associated with AGL6 and IAA9 function in tomato fruit set

Project description:Fruit set is triggered after ovule fertilization, as a consequence of the downregulation of ovary growth repressors, such as the tomato transcription factors Auxin/indole-3-acetic acid 9 (IAA9) and Agamous-like 6 (AGL6). We produced small RNA libraries from IAA9- and AGL6-silenced ovaries to identify miRNAs differentially expressed in IAA9- and AGL6-silenced ovaries as compared with unpollinated control ovaries. The identified miRNAs represent a pool of regulatory sRNAs potentially involved in tomato fruit initiation.

RUNX1 safeguards the identity of the fetal ovary through an interplay with FOXL2

Project description:We discovered that expression of the transcription factor RUNX1 is enriched in the fetal ovary in various vertebrate species. In the mouse, RUNX1 marks the supporting cell lineage and becomes granulosa cell-specific as the gonads differentiate. To understand the function of Runx1 during fetal development of the ovary, we ablated Runx1 specifically in the somatic cell lineage of the fetal ovaries using Sf1-Cre . We compared ovarian differentiation in wild type, Runx1 and Foxl2 single knockouts, and Runx1/Foxl2 double knockout ovaries. Transcriptome comparisons of newborn ovaries revealed that loss of Runx1 or Foxl2 affected a similar set of genes: 41% of the genes affected by the loss of Runx1 were also changed by the loss of Foxl2. Despite these transcriptomic changes, granulosa cell identity was maintained during fetal life in both Runx1 or Foxl2 single knockout ovaries. However, the combined loss of Runx1/Foxl2 resulted in masculinization of the ovaries during fetal life. To further characterize the impacts of the combined loss of Runx1 and Foxl2 on ovarian differentiation, we compared the transcriptome of Runx1/Foxl2 DKO newborn ovaries with the transcriptomes of control, Runx1, or Foxl2 single KO ovaries.

Transcriptomic and metabolomic data of goat ovarian and uterine tissues during sexual maturation (Uterine data)

Project description:The ovaries and uterus are crucial reproductive organs in mammals, and their coordinated development ensures the normal development of sexual maturity and reproductive capacity. This study aimed to comprehensively capture the different physiological stages of the goat's sexual maturation by selecting four specific time points. We collected samples of ovarian and uterine tissues from five female Jining Gray goats at each time point: after birth (D1), 2-month-old (M2), 4-month-old (M4) and 6-month-old (M6). By combining transcriptomic sequencing of 40 samples (including rRNA-depleted RNA-seq libraries with 3607.8 million reads and miRNA-seq libraries with 444.0 million reads) and metabolomics analysis, we investigated the transcriptomic mechanisms involved in reproductive regulation in the ovary and uterus during sexual maturation, as well as the changes in metabolites and their functional potential. Additionally, we analyzed blood hormone indices and uterine tissue sections to examine temporal changes. These datasets will provide a valuable reference for the reproductive regulation of the ovary and uterus, as well as the regulation of metabolites during sexual maturation in goats.

Characterization of the effects of Runx1 KO in the mouse adult ovary

Project description:In this study, we investigated the effects of Runx1 loss on ovarian pathogenesis in mice. Conditional loss of Runx1 in the somatic cells of the ovary led to an increased prevalence of ovarian tumors in aged mice. While ovaries from4.5 months old mice did not display tumors, they all contained abnormal follicle-like lesions. RNA-Sequencing analysis on 4.5 month old ovaries identified differentially expressed genes in Runx1 KO ovaries, including genes involved in metaplasia, ovarian cancer, epithelial cell development, tight junctions, cell-cell adhesion, and Wnt/beta-catenin pathway.

Mammalian microRNAs: Experimental evaluation of novel and previously annotated genes

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small regulatory RNAs that derive from distinctive hairpin transcripts. To learn more about the miRNAs of mammals, we sequenced 60 million small RNAs from mouse brain, ovary, testes, embryonic stem cells, three embryonic stages, and whole newborns. Analysis of these sequences confirmed 387 annotated miRNA genes and identified 110 novel miRNA genes. Over 150 previously annotated miRNAs and hundreds of candidates failed to yield sequenced RNAs with miRNA-like features. Ectopically expressing these previously proposed miRNA hairpins also did not yield small RNAs, whereas ectopically expressing the confirmed and newly identified hairpins usually did yield small RNAs with the classical miRNA features, including dependence on the Drosha endonuclease for processing. These experiments, which suggest that previous estimates of conserved mammalian miRNAs were inflated, provide a substantially revised list of confidently identified mammalian miRNAs from which to infer the general features of mammalian miRNAs. Our analyses also revealed new aspects of miRNA biogenesis and modification, including tissue-specific strand preferences, sequential Dicer cleavage of a metazoan pre-miRNA, newly identified instances of miRNA editing, and evidence for widespread Lin28-like miRNA regulation. For miRNA discovery, small RNAs were sequenced from mouse brain, ovary, testes, three embryonic stages, and whole newborns; for ectopic over-expression assays, pre-miRNA hairpins and the surrounding regions were transfected into HEK293T, and the small RNA were sequenced from the transfected cells 39-48 hours after transfection.

Identification of novel ovarian predominant miRNAs in medaka

Project description:The involvement of miRNAs during vertebrate oogenesis is poorly documented. Based on the assumption that ovarian-specific or ovarian-predominant genes usually play important roles during oogenesis, we searched for ovarian-predominant miRNAs in the medaka (Oryzias latipes) ovary. 10 tissus were collected from adult medaka (intestine, ovary, testis, liver, heart, gills, kidney, brain, muscle and bone) and RNAs were hybridized on a designed agilent microarray displaying 3800 distinct miRNAs from different teleost and vertebrate species. We identified 66 miRNAs sequences predominantly expressed in the ovary that had never been previously described in medaka.
