Project description:To identify target genes of miR-142-5p and miR-130a-3p that are involved in M2 polarization, we examined the mRNA expression profile changes after altering miR-142-5p or miR-130a-3p expression in IL-4-treated macrophages. Macrophages were transfected with control ASO, miR-142-5p ASO, control mimics or miR-130-3p mimics using lentiviral vectors. After 24 hr, the cells were treated with IL-4 for 24h.mRNA was purified from total RNA after removal of rRNA (mRNA-ONLY™ Eukaryotic mRNA Isolation Kit, Epicentre). Then, each sample was amplified and transcribed into fluorescent cRNA along the entire length of the transcripts without 3’ bias utilizing a random priming method. The labeled cRNAs were hybridized onto the Human RNA Array v2.0 (8 x 60K, Arraystar). After having washed the slides, the arrays were scanned by the Agilent Scanner G2505B.

Project description:In our previous study, hsa-let-7d-3p, hsa-let-7e-5p,hsa-miR-146a-5p,hsa-miR-130a-3p, hsa-miR-151a-3p,were significantly upregulated in the plasma of atopic patients. To study the each function of let-7d-3p, let-7e-5p,miR-146a-5p,miR-130a-3p, miR-151a-3p which are significantly upregulated in the plasma of atopic patients, we performed mimic-transfected THP-1 cells, a mononuclear cell line, and performed comprehensive genetic analysis.
Project description:Tumor progression is accompanied by an altered myelopoiesis that causes the accumulation of cells inhibiting anti-tumor T lymphocytes. We previously reported that immunosuppressive cells can be generated in vitro from bone marrow cells (BM) after four days GM-CSF and IL-6 treatment. Here, we describe that miR-142-3p down-regulation directs macrophage differentiation and determines the acquisition of their immunosuppressive function in cancer. Enforced miR over-expression impaired monocyte to macrophage transition both in vitro and in vivo. Conversely, forced miR down-regulation promoted the generation of immunosuppressive macrophages even during G-CSF-induced granulocytic differentiation. To identify how miR-142-3p regulates MDSC generation and activity, we analyze the gene expression of BM cultures transfected with either CTRL- or miR 142-3p mimic oligo -transfected before four days GM-CSF and IL-6 treatment. Keywords: Expression profiling by array BM cells were transfected either CTRL- or miR 142-3p mimic oligo before GM-CSF and IL-6 treatment to generate in vitro MDSCs during enforced miR over-expression. A triplicate of each sample was considered.Total RNA from obtained in vitro BM-differentiated MDSCs was isolated by Trizol reagent, and cRNA samples were hybridized to the Affymetrix GeneChip MOE430 2.0.

Project description:Mouse peritoneal macrophages were transfected with 80-120 nM miRIDIAN miRNA mimics (miR-mimic-33/miR-mimic-33*) or with 80-120 nM miRIDIAN miRNA inhibitors (anti-miR-33 ASO/anti-miR-33*ASO) Control samples were treated with an equal concentration of a non-targeting control mimics sequence (control mimic) or inhibitor negative control sequence (control aso), to control for non-specific effects in miRNA experiments.
Project description:RAW264.7 mouse macrophages were transfected with negative control and miR-342-3p mimics and subjected to microarray analysis 18 hours after the transfection. We used microarray to obtain global mRNA expression data of negative control and miR-342-3p mimics-transfected RAW264.7 cells.
Project description:iPSC-derived neurons were treated with mimics and inhibitors of the miRNAs miR-150-5p, hsa-mir-193a-3p and hsa-miR-19b-3p.
RNA-sequencing was then performed to examine the effects of miRNA up-regulation and inhibition.
Project description:Bone marrow-derived macrophages were transfected with miRNA-204-3p mimics or mimics negative control for 24 hours. RNA-seq was performed to compare miR-204-3p overexpression versus control cells.
Project description:Microglia were derived from iPSCs and treated with mimics and inhibitors of the miRNAs hsa-miR-150-5p, hsa-miR-193a-3p and hsa-miR-19b-3p. RNA-sequencing was then performed to examine the effects of up- and down-regulation of the respective miRNAs.
