Project description:Acquired resistance to cancer drug therapies almost always occurs in advanced-stage patients even following a significant response to treatment. In addition to mutational mechanisms, various non-mutational resistance mechanisms have now been recognized. We previously described a chromatin-mediated subpopulation of reversibly drug-tolerant persisters (DTPs) that is dynamically maintained within a wide variety of tumor cell populations. Here, we explored a potential role for microRNAs in such transient drug tolerance. Functional screening of 879 human microRNAs revealed miR-371-3p as a potent suppressor of drug tolerance. PRDX6 (peroxiredoxin 6) was identified as a key target of miR-371-3p in establishing drug tolerance by regulating PLA2/PKCα activity and reactive oxygen species. PRDX6 expression is associated with poor prognosis in cancers of multiple tissue origins. These findings implicate miR-371-3p as a suppressor of PRDX6 and suggest that co-targeting of PRDX6 or modulating miR-371-3p expression together with targeted cancer therapies may delay or prevent acquired drug resistance. PC9 stable cell lines expressing GFP vector or miR-371-3p were generated to study the effect of miR-371-3p in response to erlotinib treatment for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Stable cell lines were treated with DMSO or erlotinib for 24hrs and RNA isolated for analyzing the effect of miR-371-3p on gene expression upon erlotinib treatment.

Drug tolerant persisters (DTPs) generated in response to erlotinib treatment were the basis for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. PC9 cells were treated with DMSO or Erlotinib for 9 days to generate DTPs, then RNA was isolated for analyzing the differential gene expression pattern in DTPs compared to parental cells.

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:Malignant germ-cell-tumours (GCTs) are characterised by microRNA (miRNA/miR-) dysregulation, with universal over-expression of miR-371~373 and miR-302/367 clusters regardless of patient age, tumour site, or subtype (seminoma/yolk-sac-tumour/embryonal carcinoma). These miRNAs are released into the bloodstream, presumed within extracellular-vesicles (EVs) and represent promising biomarkers. Here, we comprehensively examined the role of EVs, and their miRNA cargo, on (fibroblast/endothelial/macrophage) cells representative of the testicular GCT (TGCT) tumour microenvironment (TME). Small RNA next-generation-sequencing was performed on 34 samples, comprising representative malignant GCT cell lines/EVs and controls (testis fibroblast [Hs1.Tes] cell-line/EVs and testis/ovary samples). TME cells received TGCT co-culture, TGCT-derived EVs, and a miRNA overexpression system (miR-371a-OE) to assess functional relevance. TGCT cells secreted EVs into culture media. MiR-371~373 and miR-302/367 cluster miRNAs were overexpressed in all TGCT cells/subtypes compared with control cells and were highly abundant in TGCT-derived EVs, with miR-371a-3p/miR-371a-5p the most abundant. TGCT co-culture resulted in increased levels of miRNAs from the miR-371~373 and miR-302/367 clusters in TME (fibroblast) cells. Next, fluorescent labelling demonstrated TGCT-derived EVs were internalised by all TME (fibroblast/endothelial/macrophage) cells. TME (fibroblast/endothelial) cell treatment with EVs derived from different TGCT subtypes resulted in increased miR-371~373 and miR-302/367 miRNA levels, and other generic (eg, miR-205-5p/miR-148-3p) and subtype-specific (seminoma, eg, miR-203a-3p; yolk-sac-tumour, eg, miR-375-3p) miRNAs. MiR-371a-OE in TME cells resulted in increased collagen contraction (fibroblasts) and angiogenesis (endothelial cells), via direct mRNA downregulation and alteration of relevant pathways. TGCT cells communicate with nontumour stromal TME cells through release of EVs enriched in oncogenic miRNAs, potentially contributing to tumour progression.

Project description:Naïve human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) represent an earlier time-point in embryogenesis than conventional, ‘primed’ hPSCs. We present a comprehensive miRNA profiling of naïve-to-primed transition in hPSC, a process resembling aspects of early in vivo embryogenesis. We identify miR-143-3p and miR-22-3p as markers of the naïve state and miR-363-5p, several members of the miR-17 family, miR-302 family as primed markers. We uncover that miR-371-373 are highly upregulated in naïve hPSC. MiR-371-373 are the human homologs of the mouse miR-290 family, which are the most highly expressed miRNAs in mPSC. This aligns with the consensus that naïve hPSC resemble mPSC, showing that the absence of miR-371-373 in conventional hPSC is due to cell state rather than a species difference.

Project description:Background. MiR-371~373 and miR-302/367 cluster over-expression occurs in all malignant- GCTs, regardless of age (paediatric/adult), site (gonadal/extragonadal), or subtype [seminoma, yolk sac tumour (YST), embryonal carcinoma (EC)]. Six of eight microRNAs from these clusters contain the seed ‘AAGUGC’, determining mRNA targeting. Here we sought to identify the significance of these observations by targeting these microRNAs functionally. Methods. We targeted miR-371~373 and/or miR-302/367 clusters in malignant-GCT cell lines, using CRISPR-Cas9, gapmer primary miR-302/367 transcripts inhibition, and peptide- nucleic-acid (PNA) or locked-nucleic-acid (LNA)-DNA inhibition targeting miR-302a-d-3p, and undertook relevant functional assays. Results. MiR-302/367 cluster microRNAs made the largest contribution to AAGUGC seed abundance in malignant-GCT cells, regardless of subtype (seminoma/YST/EC). Following unsuccessful use of CRISPR-Cas9, gapmer, and PNA systems, LNA-DNA-based targeting resulted in growth inhibition in seminoma and YST cells. This was associated with de- repression of multiple mRNAs targeted by ‘AAGUGC’ seed-containing microRNAs, with pathway analysis confirming predominant disruption of Rho-GTPase signaling, vesicle organization/transport, and cell-cycle regulation, findings corroborated in clinical samples. Further LNA-DNA inhibitor studies confirmed direct cell-cycle effects, with increase of cells in G0/G1-phase and decrease in S-phase. Conclusion. Targeting of specific miR-371~373 and miR-302/367 microRNAs in malignant- GCTs demonstrated their functional significance, with growth inhibition mediated through cell-cycle disruption.
