Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in African Green Monkeys treated with antimiR-33a/b, compared to the animal treated with vehicle The treatment of the monkeys is further described in Rottiers V, Obad S, McGarrah R, Black JC, Lindholm M, Goody R, Lawrence M, Whetstine JR, Gerszten RE, Kauppinen S, NM-CM-$M-CM-$r AM. (2013). Pharmacological inhibition of a microRNA family in non-human primates by a seed-targeting 8-mer antimiR oligonucleotide. Accepted for publication at Science Translational Medicine. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate many aspects of human biology. They target mRNAs for translational repression or degradation through base-pairing with 3M-bM-^@M-^Y UTRs, primarily via seed sequences (nucleotides 2-8 in the mature miRNA sequence). A number of individual miRNAs and miRNA families share seed sequences and targets, but differ in the sequences outside of the seed. miRNAs have been implicated in the etiology of a wide variety of human diseases and therefore represent promising therapeutic targets. However, potential redundancy and compensatory action of different miRNAs sharing the same seed sequence, and the challenge of simultaneously targeting miRNAs that differ significantly in non-seed sequences complicates therapeutic targeting approaches. We recently demonstrated effective inhibition of entire miRNA families using seed-targeting 8-mer locked nucleic acid (LNA)-modified antimiRs in short-term experiments in mammalian cells and in mice. However, the long-term efficacy and safety of this approach in higher organisms, such as humans and non-human primates, has not been determined. Here, we show that pharmacological inhibition of the miR-33 family, key regulators of cholesterol/lipid homeostasis, by a subcutaneously delivered 8-mer LNA-modified antimiR in obese and insulin-resistant non-human primates results in de-repression of miR-33 targets, such as ABCA1, increases circulating high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), and is well tolerated over 108 days of treatment. These findings demonstrate the efficacy and safety of an 8-mer LNA-antimiR against a miRNA family in a non-human primate metabolic disease model, suggesting that this could be a feasible approach for therapeutic targeting of miRNA families sharing the same seed sequence in human diseases. Expression analysis study in obese Non Human Primates (African Green Monkeys). Five animals treated with antimiR-33a/b were compared to five animals treated with vehicle.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are small, noncoding RNAs that are implicated in the regulation of nearly all biological processes. Global miRNA biogenesis is altered in many cancers and RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have been shown to play a role in this process, presenting a promising avenue for targeting miRNA dysregulation in disease. miR-34a exhibits tumor-suppressive functions by targeting cell cycle regulators CDK4/6 and anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2, among other regulatory pathways such as Wnt, TGF-, and Notch signaling. Many cancers show downregulation or loss of miR-34a, and synthetic miR-34a supplementation has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in vivo; however, the post-transcriptional mechanisms by which miR-34a is lost in cancer are not entirely understood. Here, we have used a proteomics-mediated approach to identify Squamous cell carcinoma antigen recognized by T-cells 3 (SART3) as a putative pre-miR-34a-binding protein. SART3 is a spliceosome recycling factor and nuclear RBP with no previously reported role in miRNA regulation. We demonstrate that SART3 binds pre-miR-34a with specificity over pre-let-7d and begin to elucidate a new functional role for this protein in non-small lung cancer cells. Overexpression of SART3 led to increased miR-34a levels, downregulation of the miR-34a target genes CDK4 and CDK6, and cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase. In vitro binding studies showed that the RNA-recognition motifs within the SART3 sequence are responsible for selective pre-miR-34a binding. Collectively, our results present evidence for an influential role of SART3 in miR-34a biogenesis and cell cycle progression.

Project description:Background MicroRNAs are potent regulators of biology and disease. The miR-15 family has been shown to regulate cardiomyocyte proliferation and antimiR-based inhibition induces a cardioprotective effect after myocardial infarction in mice. However, systemic delivery of antimiRs leads to accumulation in kidneys and liver, with relatively poor cardiac exposure. pH-responsive injectable hydrogels serve as a sustained-release drug delivery depot and could potentially be used to improve cardiac efficacy of antimiR therapeutics. Objective Examine whether hydrogel can improve local delivery of antimiR-195 in ischemic hearts to increase cardiac efficacy and limit off-target effects. Methods Study the effect of intramyocardial injections of hydrogel-formulated antimiR-195 under both baseline conditions and after ischemic injury. Results Intracardiac injections of UPy-PEG induced a transient inflammatory response that was no longer present 7 days post-injection. In vitro experiments showed that antimiR-195 was released from the gel, and induced microRNA inhibition leading to downstream cardiomyocyte proliferation. In vivo, intramyocardial delivery of antimiR-195 in UPy-PEG enhanced cardiac target de-repression compared to PBS-dissolved antimiR-195, despite a low cardiac retention. After ischemic injury, this translated into a greater therapeutic effect by increasing both target de-repression and cardiomyocyte proliferation. Conclusions UPy-PEG can be used as a cardiac delivery vehicle of antimiRs and intramyocardial injection of UPy-PEG formulated antimiR-195 is sufficient to improve cardiac efficacy of antimiR-195. Follow up experiments in large animals will enable us to assess the true added value of using UPy-PEG to increase cardiac exposure of antimiR therapies.

Project description:Antagonism of microRNA-122 in mice by systemically administered LNA-antimiR leads to up-regulation of a large set of predicted target mRNAs in the liver MicroRNA-122 (miR-122) is an abundant liver-specific miRNA, implicated in fatty acid and cholesterol metabolism as well as hepatitis C viral replication. Here, we report that a systemically administered 16-nt, unconjugated LNA (locked nucleic acid)-antimiR oligonucleotide complementary to the 5' end of miR-122 leads to specific, dose-dependent silencing of miR-122 and shows no hepatotoxicity in mice. Antagonism of miR-122 is due to formation of stable heteroduplexes between the LNA-antimiR and miR-122 as detected by northern analysis. Fluorescence in situ hybridization demonstrated uptake of the LNA-antimiR in mouse liver cells, which was accompanied by markedly reduced hybridization signals for mature miR-122 in treated mice. Functional antagonism of miR-122 was inferred from a low cholesterol phenotype and de-repression within 24 h of 199 liver mRNAs showing significant enrichment for miR-122 seed matches in their 3' UTRs. Expression profiling extended to 3 weeks after the last LNA-antimiR dose revealed that most of the changes in liver gene expression were normalized to saline control levels coinciding with normalized miR-122 and plasma cholesterol levels. Combined, these data suggest that miRNA antagonists comprised of LNA are valuable tools for identifying miRNA targets in vivo and for studying the biological role of miRNAs and miRNA-associated gene-regulatory networks in a physiological context.

Project description:To determine the effect of antimiR-122 administration on the mouse miRNome. To functionally investigate a possible link between miR-122 and iron metabolism we inhibited miR-122 by a single, intraperitoneal injection of Locked Nucleic Acid (LNA)-modified antimiR oligonucleotides into age- and sex-matched C57Bl/6 WT mice. To inhibit miR-122 specifically, we injected an antimiR compound with perfect complementarity to miR-122 [perfect match (PM); PM_antimiR-122]. As negative controls, mice were either injected with an LNA control compound with two mismatches (2MM, 2MM_antimiR-122) or the vehicle control (SAL; 0.9% NaCl). Mice were sacrificed three and six weeks after injection. Independent of treatment, mice were viable and exhibited no overt physical or behavioral abnormalities. To exclude that PM_antimiR-122 administration disturbs the expression of other miRNAs we analyzed miRNA expression profiles in the livers, hearts and spleens of the same mice.

Project description:The miR-34 is a tumor-suppressor miRNA family involved in various human cancers, including breast. However, the role of such miRNAs in the control of mammary stem cells (MaSCs), early-progenitors and their tumor counterparts, (CSCs) lies largely unexplored. Here, we identified miR-34a as directly regulated by TP53 in primary mouse mammospheres. Expression of miR-34a is induced upon luminal commitment and differentiation and able to inhibit the expansion of the MaSCs/early-progenitor pool in a p53-independent fashion. Loss of function approaches revealed that miR-34 negatively controls both proliferation and fate commitment in mammary progenitors by modulating several pathways involved in epithelial cell plasticity and luminal-to-basal conversion. In particular, miR-34a negatively regulates Wnt/b-catenin signaling pathway, targeting multiple upstream regulators and, thus, modulating the expansion of the MaSCs/early-progenitor pool. These multiple roles of miR-34a were maintained in a model of human breast cancer, where chronic expression of miR-34a in triple-negative mesenchymal-like cells (enriched in CSCs) reduced tumor growth, restricted CSC pool and inhibited tumor propagation by promoting a luminal-like differentiation program.
