Project description:Background: Screening for the early detection of colorectal cancer is important to improve patient survival. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of circulating cell-free miRNAs as biomarkers of CRC, and their efficiency at delineating patients with polyps and benign adenomas from normal and cancer patient groups. Methods: The expression of 667 miRNAs was assessed in a discovery set of 48 plasma samples comprising normal, polyp, adenoma, and early and advanced cancer samples. Three miRNAs (miR-34a, miR-150, and miR-923) were further examined in a validation cohort of 97 subjects divided into the same five groups, and in an independent public dataset of 40 CRC samples and paired normal tissues. Results: High levels of circulating miR-34a and low miR-150 levels distinguished groups of patients with polyps from those with advanced cancer (AUC=0.904), and low circulating miR-150 levels separated patients with adenomas from those with advanced cancer (AUC=0.875). In addition, the altered expression of miR-34a and miR-150 in an independent public dataset of forty CRC samples and paired normal tissues was confirmed. Conclusion: We identified two circulating miRNAs capable of distinguishing patient groups with different diseases of the colon from each other, and patients with advanced cancer from benign disease groups.

Project description:The gole of this study was to determine whether circulaitng miRNAs could be used as candidate miRNAs of SLE . In this study a miRNA profile was used to determine aberrant expressed circulating miRNAs in patients with system lupus erythematosus (SLE), compared with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and healthy control (HCs). To further confirm these microarray data, we identify 8 miRNAs (miR-126, miR-21, miR-451, miR-223, miR-16, miR-125a-3p,miR-155,miR-146a) by real-time quantitative PCR in 20 healthy controls and in 55 cases, of whom 30 were diagnosed with SLE and 25 were diagnosed RA. Using microarray-based expression profiling follwed by real-time quantitative polymerase Cycle Reaction (RT-qPCR)validation, we compared the levels of circulating miRNAs in plasma sample from SLE patients, RA patients, and healthy controls

Project description:We determined the effect of p53 activation on de novo protein synthesis using quantitative proteomics of newly synthesized proteins (pulsed stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture, pSILAC) in combination with mRNA and non-coding RNA expression analyses by next generation sequencing (RNA-, miR-Seq) in the colorectal cancer (CRC) cell line SW480. Furthermore, genome-wide DNA binding of p53 was analyzed by chromatin-immunoprecipitation (ChIP-Seq). Thereby, we identified differentially regulated mRNAs (1258 up, 415 down), miRNAs (111 up, 95 down), lncRNAs (270 up, 123 down) and proteins (542 up, 569 down). Changes in mRNA and protein expression levels showed a positive correlation (r = 0.50, p < 0.0001). More transcriptionally induced genes displayed occupied p53 binding sites (4.3% mRNAs, 7.2% miRNAs, 6.3% lncRNAs, 5.9% proteins) than repressed genes (2.4% mRNAs, 3.2% miRNAs, 0.8% lncRNAs, 1.9% proteins), suggesting indirect mechanisms of repression. Around 50% of the downregulated proteins displayed seed-matching sequences of p53-induced miRNAs in the corresponding 3’-UTRs. Moreover, proteins repressed by p53 significantly overlapped with those previously shown to be repressed by miR-34a. We confirmed upregulation of the novel direct p53 target genes LINC01021, MDFI, ST14 and miR-486 and showed that ectopic LINC01021 expression inhibited proliferation in SW480 cells. Furthermore, HMGB1, KLF12 and CIT mRNAs were confirmed as direct targets of the p53-induced miR-34a, miR-205 and miR-486-5p, respectively. In line with the loss of p53 function during tumor progression, elevated expression of HMGB1, KLF12 and CIT was detected in advanced stages of cancer. This study provides new insights and a comprehensive catalogue of p53-mediated regulations and p53 DNA binding in CRC cells.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are small, noncoding RNAs that are implicated in the regulation of nearly all biological processes. Global miRNA biogenesis is altered in many cancers and RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have been shown to play a role in this process, presenting a promising avenue for targeting miRNA dysregulation in disease. miR-34a exhibits tumor-suppressive functions by targeting cell cycle regulators CDK4/6 and anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2, among other regulatory pathways such as Wnt, TGF-, and Notch signaling. Many cancers show downregulation or loss of miR-34a, and synthetic miR-34a supplementation has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in vivo; however, the post-transcriptional mechanisms by which miR-34a is lost in cancer are not entirely understood. Here, we have used a proteomics-mediated approach to identify Squamous cell carcinoma antigen recognized by T-cells 3 (SART3) as a putative pre-miR-34a-binding protein. SART3 is a spliceosome recycling factor and nuclear RBP with no previously reported role in miRNA regulation. We demonstrate that SART3 binds pre-miR-34a with specificity over pre-let-7d and begin to elucidate a new functional role for this protein in non-small lung cancer cells. Overexpression of SART3 led to increased miR-34a levels, downregulation of the miR-34a target genes CDK4 and CDK6, and cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase. In vitro binding studies showed that the RNA-recognition motifs within the SART3 sequence are responsible for selective pre-miR-34a binding. Collectively, our results present evidence for an influential role of SART3 in miR-34a biogenesis and cell cycle progression.

Project description:Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is often diagnosed at a late stage and may be malignantly transformed from oral leukoplakia (OL). This study aimed to identify potential plasma microRNAs (miRNAs) for the early detection of oral cancer. Methods: Plasma from normal, OL, and OSCC patients were evaluated. Small RNA sequencing was used to screen differently expressed miRNAs among the groups. Next, these miRNAs were validated with individual samples by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assays. The possible physiological roles of the identified miRNAs were further investigated using bioinformatics analysis. Results: Three miRNAs (miR-222-3p, miR-150-5p, and miR-423-5p) were identified as differentially expressed among groups; miR-222-3p and miR-423-5p negatively correlated with T stage, lymph node metastasis status, and clinical stage. A high diagnostic accuracy (Area under curve = 0.88) was demonstrated for discriminating OL from OSCC. Bioinformatics analysis reveals that miR-423-5p and miR-222-3p are significantly over-expressed in oral cancer tissues and involved in various cancer pathways. Conclusions: The three plasma miRNA panel may be useful to monitor malignant progression from OL to OSCC and as potential biomarkers for early detection of oral cancer.

Project description:Biomarker studies for early stage or preclinical hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) are hindered by the difficulties of obtaining samples from asymptomatic individuals. We established animal models using irradiated mice to investigate circulating miRNA as non-invasive markers for detection of early stage HCC. We hypothesized that certain miRNAs that play pivotal roles in molecular pathways are conserved across species and identification of these miRNAs will facilitate studying human markers in mice. To test the hypothesis, we performed weighted gene co-expression analysis by integrating circulating miRNA and tumor gene expression profiles from individual mice and discovered hub miRNAs in highly correlated expression modules. We validated the hub miRNAs using F2 hybrid mice derived from radiogenic HCC susceptible and resistant founders and identified 38 circulating miRNA markers associated with radiation-induced HCC. Through literacy search, we selected 10 human HCC-associated circulating miRNAs that had been validated in multiple independent patient cohorts. Nine of the 10 human markers overlapped with the mouse hub miRNAs, indicating the feasibility of using mouse model to study human circulating HCC markers. Using serially collected plasma samples from irradiated mice, we studied the kinetics of circulating miRNAs. We found that the mouse plasma levels of 4 human circulating markers, miR-122-5p, miR-100-5p, miR-34a-5p and miR-365-3p increased linearly as the time approaching towards HCC detection, indicating the correlations of the 4 miRNAs with oncogenic progression. Estimation of change points in the kinetics of the 4 circulating miRNAs suggested the changes started months before HCC detection, ranging from 17.5 to 6.8 months. Our data demonstrated that the 4 circulating miRNAs were sensitive biomarkers potentially valuable for the screening of early stage HCC.

Project description:Bronchial asthma is one of the most common respiratory diseases. Reversible airflow limitation, persistent airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness, and air remodeling is its main characterization. The morbidity and mortality rates of asthma increase due to air pollution. MicroRNAs are small molecules that regulate gene expression playing a part in inflammatory diseases. The designed current study aims to compare and screen circulating microRNAs targeting LIGHT as diagnostic biomarkers during asthma attack through microRNA microarray and Real Time PCR assay. Methods: Serum from 40 patients with asthma attack and 20 normal subjects was collected to detect circulating microRNAs expression profile through miRNA microarray. It is revealed that the significant differences of microRNAs level between asthmatic patients and normal controls. Target gene predictive analysis of differentially expressing microRNAs was performed to screen the miRNAs targeting LIGHT gene basing on the TargetScan bioinformatics software. Real Time PCR was conducted to further verify the realiability of the miRNA microassay and the screened specific miRNAs targeting LIGHT. Results: Asthmatic patients had a significant upper expression of miR-512-3p, miR-513b-5p, miR-5691 and lower level of miR-107, miR-140-5p, miR-17-5p compared with healthy subjects. The level of miR-140-5p and miR-107 in plasma of asthmatic patients were tightly correlated with their eosinophilic inflammation. The plasma miR-140-5p and miR-107 were needed to perform further investigation to evaluate the role as biomarkers in diagnosis of asthma.

Project description:Circulating microRNAs have recently emerged as a new class of promising non-invasive cancer biomarkers. The purpose of this study was the identification by a high-throughput approach (miRNA microarray) of circulating miRNAs associated with breast cancer-derived distant metastasis. To achieve this goal, we resorted to archival plasma samples collected from patients in the control arm of a randomized clinical trial on stage I breast cancer. We compared plasma miRNA levels in patients that developed distant metastasis after a radical or conservative surgery and in those long-term disease-free. Microarray results were technically and independently validated by Real Time PCR. Subsequent in vitro, in vivo and in silico analyses were performed to investigate the miRNA biological/clinical significance in relation with breast cancer progression. We demonstrated that high circulating miR-1246 levels were associated to distant metastasis and that high tissue expression of this miRNA was correlated with unfavorable outcome in ER+HER2- breast cancer patients. In addition, miR-1246 expression was also found to be related with stem-like features.
