Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiling identified miR-638 as one of the most significantly overexpressed miRNAs in metastatic lesions compared with primary melanomas. miR-638 enhanced the tumourigenic properties of melanoma cells in vitro and lung colonization in vivo. mRNA expression profiling of miR-638 and antagomir-transduced cells identified new candidate genes as miR-638 targets, the majority of which is involved in p53-mediated apoptosis regulation. miR-638 depletion stimulated expression of p53 and its downstream target genes and induced apoptosis and autophagy in melanoma cells. miR-638 promoter analysis revealed transcription factor associated protein 2-M-NM-1 (TFAP2A) as a direct negative regulator of miR-638. Further analyses provided strong evidence for a double negative regulatory feedback loop between miR-638 and TFAP2A. Taken together, miR-638 may support melanoma progression by suppressing p53-mediated apoptosis pathways and by targeting the transcriptional repressor TFAP2A. TaqManM-BM-. low-density arrays (TLDA; human microRNA Cards A v2.1 & B v2.0, Applied Biosystems, Darmstadt, Germany) were used for measuring the expression of 667 human miRNAs in primary melanomas (PM, n=8), lymph node metastases (LNM, n=9) or distant cutaneous metastases (DCM, n=10).

Taken together, miR-638 may support melanoma progression by suppressing p53-mediated apoptosis pathways and by targeting the transcriptional repressor TFAP2A. Whole genome cDNA microarray (Illumina Human HT-12 v4 Expression BeadChip Kit, San Diego, CA 92122 USA) analyses were performed in duplicates using RNA extracted from SK-Mel-147 cells transfected with a non-targeting control, miR-638 or antagomiR-638.

Project description:MicroRNAs are a family of 19- to 25-nucleotides noncoding small RNAs that primarily function as gene regulators. Aberrant microRNA expression has been described for several human malignancies, and this new class of small regulatory RNAs has both oncogenic and tumor suppressor functions. Despite this knowledge, there is little information regarding microRNAs in blood especially because microRNAs in blood, if exist, were thought to be digested by RNase. Recent studies, however, have revealed that microRNAs exist and escape digestion in serum and plasma. Thus, we performed microRNA microaray to obtain insight into microRNA deregulation in the plasma of a leukemia patient. Here, we have revealed that microRNA-638 (miR-638) is stably present in human plasmas, and miR-92a dramatically decreased in the plasmas of acute leukemia patients. Our data indicate that the ratio of miR-92a/miR-638 in plasma has strong potential for clinical application as a novel biomarker for detection of leukemia.

Project description:Metastasis is the primary cause of death of cancer patients. Dissecting mechanisms governing metastatic spread may uncover important tumor biology and/or yield promising therapeutic insights. Here we investigated the role of circular RNAs (circRNA) in metastasis, using melanoma as a model aggressive tumor. We identified silencing of Cerebellar Degeneration Related 1 (CDR1as), a regulator of the microRNA miR-7, as a hallmark of melanoma progression. We find that CDR1as depletion results from epigenetic silencing of its originating lincRNA, and promotes invasion in vitro and metastasis in vivo, through a miR-7-independent, IGF2BP3-mediated mechanism. Moreover, CDR1as levels identify cellular states associated with distinct therapeutic responses. Our study reveals functional, prognostic and predictive roles for CDR1as and expose circRNAs as key players in metastasis.

Seven normal samples and two acute leukemia samples ware profiled and compared.
