Project description:MicroRNA-10b may target numerous genes in gliomagenesis. The target genes of miR-10b may differ according to the cellular context. We used microarray analyses to determine the phenotypic effects and gene targets of miR-10b by silencing miR-10b in invasive U87-2M1 glioma cells.

We used microarray analyses to determine the phenotypic effects and gene targets of miR-10b by silencing miR-10b in invasive U87-2M1 glioma cells. Early passage U87-2M1 cells treated with the baculoviral control decoy vector or miR-10b decoy vector were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on microarray
Project description:An experimental lung metastasis assay was used to derive an invasive subline of U87 that is metastatic in mice. We used microarray analyses to find out over-represented gene ontologies that can explain the observed enhanced invasiveness of U87-2M1 cells. Early passage U87-2M1 cells and parental U87 glioma cells from ATCC were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on microarray

Project description:We have employed whole RNA microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes regulated by overexpression of miR-145 in U87 glioma cell. Lentivirus containing miR-145 coding sequence was infected to U87 cell to make U87 overexpressing miR-145. We did genome microarray between U87 and U87 overexpressing miR-145.

Project description:miRNAs are regulatory transcripts established as repressors of mRNA stability and translation. Here we demonstrate that an oncomiR-10b binds to U6 snRNA, a core component of the spliceosomal machinery. We provide evidence of direct binding between miR-10b and U6, in situ visualizations of miR-10b and U6 co-localization in glioma cells and tumor tissues, and biochemical co-isolation of miR-10b with the components of the spliceosome. We further demonstrate that miR-10b modulates U6 N-6-adenosine methylation and pseudouridylation, U6 binding to splicing factors SART3 and PRPF8, and regulates U6 stability, conformation, and levels. The effects on U6 result in splicing alterations, illustrated by the altered ratio of the isoforms of a small GTPase CDC42, reduced overall CDC42 levels, and downstream CDC42 -mediated effects on cell viability. We, therefore, present an unexpected intersection of the miRNA and splicing machineries and a new nuclear function for a cancer-associated miRNA.

Project description:After performing an in-vivo screening with U87 glioblastoma cells transduced with a knockdown library several genes could be identified. Lin7a which was one of the candidates was further evaluated. Single knockdown of Lin7a in U87 conferred a pro-invasive phenotype in-vitro and in-vivo. Overexpression of Lin7a in the Primary glioblastoma cell line T269 reduced its invasive phenotype. To decipher the underlying pathways U87 control, U87-shLIN7a and U87-shLin7a+Lin7A (rescue cells after re-expression of Lin7A) were analyzed after in-vitro culture by a transcription profiling Array.
