Project description:Phagocytosis requires the activation of a plethora of mechanisms that include the activation of the actin cytoskeleton guided by the Arp2/3 complex. These are promoted by activators such as the Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome Protein (WASP) family members. In order to further understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the early events leading the phagocytosis of the pathogenic Mycobacterium tuberculosis, we set out to examine potential roles of miRNAs in phagocytosis using genome-wide expression profiling to identify miRNAs differentially regulated following mycobacterial infection. One of the miRNAs activated upon infection of mouse macrophages with the non-pathogenic Mycobacterium smegmatis, the widely conserved miR-142-3p, was predicted and confirmed to target the Neural-WASP (N-WASP). Upregulating of miR-142-3p in mouse macrophages inversely correlated with levels of N-WASP, upon infection with live pathogenic and non-pathogenic mycobacteria, suggesting an active role of Mycobacterium tuberculosis on the regulation of phagocytosis, at the post-transcriptional level, in host cells. The reduction of N-WASP correlated with a reduced internalization of bacteria per macrophage, independently of the phagocytosis index. Furthermore, the downregulation of WASP levels accompanied those of N-WASP, at early but not at late time points, suggesting a closely regulatory mechanism among both family members, dependent on the time frame of the phagocytosis. Additionally, upregulating of miR-142-3p promoted the change in the protein levels of another predicted and confirmed target, the Cofilin2 protein, in a phagocytosis-independent fashion. Downregulation experiments promoted aberrant morphologic phenotypes in macrophages, similar to observed by others in PBMCs of humans with Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome, suggesting the strong involvement of miR-142-3p on the regulation of the actin machinery in macrophages. Altogether these results show for the first time that miRNAs are involved in the regulation of actin-mediated phagocytosis of pathogenic bacteria and that these are direct targets of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs, micro ribonucleic acids) are pivotal post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. These endogenous small non-coding RNAs play significant roles in tumorigenesis and tumor progression. miR-142-3p expression is dysregulated in several breast cancer subtypes. We aimed at investigating the role of miR-142-3p in breast cancer cell invasiveness. Supported by transcriptomic Affymetrix array analysis and confirmatory investigations at the mRNA and protein level, we demonstrate that overexpression of miR-142-3p in MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468 and MCF-7 breast cancer cells leads to downregulation of WASL (Wiskott-Aldrichsyndrome-like, protein: N-WASP), Integrin-aV, RAC1, and CFL2, molecules implicated in cytoskeletal regulation and cell motility. ROCK2, IL6ST, KLF4, PGRMC2 and ADCY9 were identified as additional targets in a subset of cell lines. Decreased matrigel invasiveness was associated with the miR-142-3p-induced expression changes. Confocal immunofluorescence microscopy, nanoscale atomic force microscopy and digital holographic microscopy revealed a change in cell morphology as well as a reduced cell volume and size. A more cortical actin distribution and a loss of membrane protrusions were observed in cells overexpressing miR-142-3p. Luciferase activation assays confirmed direct miR-142-3p-dependent regulation of the 3'-untranslated region of ITGAV and WASL. siRNA-mediated depletion of ITGAV andWASL resulted in a significant reduction of cellular invasiveness, highlighting the contribution of these factors to the miRNA-dependent invasion phenotype. While knockdown of WASL significantly reduced the number of membrane protrusions compared to controls, knockdown of ITGAV resulted in a decreased cell volume, indicating differential contributions of these factors to the miR-142-3p-induced phenotype. Our data identify WASL, ITGAV and several additional cytoskeleton associated molecules as novel invasion-promoting targets of miR-142-3p in breast cancer.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression by inhibiting protein synthesis of target messenger RNAs (mRNAs). MicroRNA-142 (miR-142), which has tumor-suppressive properties, was functionally deleted by CRISPR/Cas9 knockout in cell lines derived from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a highly aggressive tumor that represents about 30% of non-Hodgkin lymphoma worldwide. Mutations in miR-142 affect about 20% of all cases of DLBCL. By proteome analyses, the miR-142 knockout resulted in a consistent up-regulation of 52 but also down-regulation of 41 proteins in the GC-DLBCL lines BJAB and SUDHL4. Various mitochondrial ribosomal proteins were up-regulated in line with their pro-tumorigenic properties, while proteins necessary for MHC-I presentation were down-regulated in accordance with the finding that miR-142 knockout mice have a defective immune response. Of the deregulated proteins/genes, CFL2, CLIC4, STAU1, and TWF1 are known targets of miR-142, and we could additionally confirm AKT1S1, CCNB1, LIMA1, and TFRC as new targets of miR-142-3p or -5p. We further show that seed-sequence mutations of miR-142 can be used to confirm potential targets and that miRNA knockout cell lines might thus be used to identify novel targets of miRNAs. Due to the complex contribution of miRNAs within cellular regulatory networks, in particular when a miRNA highly present in the RISC complex is deleted and can be replaced by other endogenous miRNAs, primary effects on gene expression may be covered by secondary layers of regulation

Project description:miR-142-3p is highly expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and has been described as a hematopoietic-restricted lineage, suggesting immune functions (Chen, Li et al. 2004; Landgraf, Rusu et al. 2007; Merkerova, Belickova et al. 2008). In order to determine the roles of miR-142-3p in B lymphocytes, we over-expressed this miRNA in the Raji B-cell line using a synthetic mimic of miR-142-3p and analyzed gene expression 24 hours after the transfection. Four replicates each of miR-142-3p-mimic transfection and apparied control mimic.

Project description:Oligodendrocytes exist in a heterogenous state and are implicated in multiple neuropsychiatric diseases including dementia. Cortical oligodendrocytes are a glial population uniquely positioned to play a key role in neurodegeneration by synchronizing circuit connectivity but molecular pathways specific to this role are lacking. We utilized oligodendrocyte-specific translating ribosome affinity purification and RNA-seq (TRAP-seq) to transcriptionally profile adult mature oligodendrocytes from different regions of the central nervous system. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) reveals distinct region-specific gene networks. Two of these mature myelinating oligodendrocyte gene networks uniquely define cortical oligodendrocytes and differentially regulate cortical myelination (M8) and synaptic signaling (M4). These two cortical oligodendrocyte gene networks are enriched for genes associated with dementia including MAPT and include multiple gene targets of the regulatory microRNA, miR-142-3p. Using a combination of TRAP-qPCR, miR-142-3p overexpression in vitro, and miR-142-null mice, we show that miR-142-3p negatively regulates cortical myelination. In rTg4510 tau-overexpressing mice, cortical myelination is compromised, and tau-mediated neurodegeneration is associated with gene co-expression networks that recapitulate both the M8 and M4 cortical oligodendrocyte gene networks identified from normal cortex. We further demonstrate overlapping gene networks in mature oligodendrocytes present in normal cortex, rTg4510 and miR-142-null mice, and existing datasets from human tauopathies to provide evidence for a critical role of miR-142-3p-regulated cortical myelination and oligodendrocyte-mediated synaptic signaling in neurodegeneration.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous non-coding RNAs of about 22 nt in length. Uveal melanoma is the most common intraocular malignant tumor in adults. Our previous result of microarray analysis showed that miR-142-3p was distinctly downregulated in uveal melanoma cells on which miR-142-3p was speculated to have important regulatory effect. In order to better understand the function of miR-142-3p in uveal melanoma and identify its gene targets, we performed transcriptomic microarray analysis. This was done by comparing gene expression profile changes in uveal melanoma cells transfected with miR-142-3p with that transfected with a negative control.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRs), a group of small and non-coding RNAs, negatively regulate gene expression via promoting messenger RNA (mRNA) degradation or blocking mRNA translation. Many miRs have been recognized as biomarkers or possible targets for the diagnosis or therapy of some diseases. Among them, miR-142-3p was involved in the occurrences and progression of various cardiovascular diseases. Previous studies found that miR-142-3p upregulation could ameliorate myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced transdifferentiation of fibroblasts to myofibroblasts and collagen deposition. miR-142-3p-mediacted autophagy was reported as a novel mechanism towards I/R-induced cardiac injure. Besides, miR-142-3p could mitigate myocardial mitochondrial dysfunction. Thus, it is worth studying whether silencing miR-142-3p may affect the pathological and physiological functions of cardiac fibroblasts.
