Project description:Accumulating evidence indicates that altered miRNA expression is crucially involved in lung cancer development, but only little has been elucidated about how MYC, an archetypical oncogene, is regulated by miRNAs, especially through a mechanism involving the MYC cofactor(s). In this study, we aimed at identifying miRNAs involved in the regulation of MYC transcriptional activity in lung cancers. To this end, we have taken an integrative approach with combinatorial usage of miRNA and mRNA expression profile datasets of patientsâ?? tumor tissues as well as those of MYC-inducible cell lines in vitro. We report here that in addition to miRNAs previously reported to be directly regulating or regulated by MYC including let-7 and miR-17-92, our strategy allowed us to identify miR-342-3p as the one capable of indirectly regulating MYC activity through direct repression of a MYC-cooperating molecule, E2F1. Furthermore, the miR-342-3p module activity, which we defined as a gene set reflecting experimentally substantiated influence of miR-342-3p on mRNA expression, was found to be inversely correlated with MYC activity reflected in the MYC module activity in three independent datasets of lung adenocarcinoma patients obtained by the Directorâ??s Challenge Consortium of the United States (P=1.94x10-73), the National Cancer Center of Japan (P=9.05x10-34) and our own in this study (P=3.37x10-6). Our integrative approach thus appears to be useful to elucidate inter-regulatory relationships between miRNAs and a protein coding-gene of interest, even those present in tumor tissues in patients, which still remains a challenge to better understand the pathogenesis of this devastating disease.

In this study, we aimed at identifying miRNAs involved in the regulation of MYC transcriptional activity in lung cancers. To this end, we have taken an integrative approach with combinatorial usage of miRNA and mRNA expression profile datasets of patients’ tumor tissues as well as those of MYC-inducible cell lines in vitro.

Project description:Oxaliplatin (oxPt) resistance in colorectal cancers (CRC) is a major unsolved problem. Consequently, predictive markers and a better understanding of resistance mechanisms are urgently needed. To investigate if the recently identified predictive miR-625-3p is functionally involved in oxPt resistance, stable and inducible models of miR-625-3p dysregulation were analyzed. Ectopic expression of miR-625-3p in CRC cells led to increased resistance towards oxPt. The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase 6 (MAP2K6/MKK6) – an activator of p38 MAPK - was identified as a functional target of miR-625-3p, and, in agreement, was down-regulated in patients not responding to oxPt therapy. The miR-625-3p resistance phenotype could be reversed by anti-miR-625-3p treatment and by ectopic expression of a miR-625-3p insensitive MAP2K6 variant. Transcriptome, proteome and phosphoproteome profiles revealed inactivation of MAP2K6-p38 signaling as a possible driving force behind oxPt resistance. We conclude that miR-625-3p induces oxPt resistance by abrogating MAP2K6-p38 regulated apoptosis and cell cycle control networks.

Project description:Liver macrophages are crucial to maintain liver homeostasis. However, upon metastatic seeding, cancer cells co-opt these macrophages to act as tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), facilitating tumor growth and invasiveness. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of TAM pro-tumoral functions, thus modulating their expression in liver macrophages may constitute a novel approach for liver metastasis immunotherapy. In this study, we identify a myeloid specific miRNA, miR-342-3p, and investigate its anti-tumoral function in liver macrophages in the context of colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM). To this aim, we harnessed lentiviral vectors (LV) to infer and modulate miRNA activity in liver macrophages in vitro and in vivo. We found that miR-342-3p was highly active in macrophages in the healthy liver, but downregulated in proximity to CRLM. Rescuing miR-342-3p activity through enforced miRNA expression induced a pro-inflammatory phenotype in liver macrophages, which was associated to reduced CRLM growth. Transcriptomic analysis revealed Slc7a11, a cysteine-glutamate antiporter associated with TAM pro-tumoral functions, as a major miR-342-3p target. Overall, our findings highlight the potential of miR-342-3p in TAM reprogramming to enhance anti-tumoral immunity.
