Project description:We generated high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) data for genome wide occupancy of hDot1L and RNAPII-5p in human embryonic carcinoma cell. Performing ChIP-seq for hDot1L and RNAPII-5p in NCCIT cell lines (embryonic carcinoma cell lines in human).

Project description:From a previous microarray study we developed a small chondrogenesis model. We performed qPCR and measured how knockdown of miR-199a-5p or miR-199b-5p could modulate chondrogenesis. Several experiments were used to determine the parameters of this model. We utilised parameter scan and manual sliding to refine the model. Within are two models - an initial model which only comprises of genes which we have data for, and an enhanced model which expands of the initial model to make more predictions - e.g. how miR-140-5p is indirectly regulated by miR-199a-5p and miR-199b-5p.
Project description:MiRNAs have been shown to alter both protein expression and secretion in different cellular contexts. By combining in vitro, in vivo and in silico techniques, we demonstrated that overexpression of pre-miR-1307 reduced the ability of breast cancer cells to induce endothelial cell sprouting and angiogenesis. However, the molecular mechanism behind this and the effect of the individual mature miRNAs derived from pre-miR-1307 on protein secretion and is largely unknown. Here, we overexpressed miR-1307-3p|0, -3p|1 and 5p|0 in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells and assessed the impact of miRNA overexpression on protein secretion by Mass Spectrometry. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering revealed a distinct phenotype induced by overexpression of miR-1307-5p|0 compared to the controls and to the 5’isomiRs derived from the 3p-arm. Together, our results suggest different impacts of miR-1307-3p and miR-1307-5p on protein secretion which is in line with our in vitro observation that miR-1307-5p, but not the isomiRs derived from the 3p-arm reduce endothelial cell sprouting in vitro. Hence these data support the hypothesis that miR-1307-5p is at least partly responsible for impaired vasculature in tumors overexpressing pre-miR-1307.

Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and often fatal pulmonary disorder characterized by fibroblast proliferation and the excess deposit of extracellular matrix proteins. The etiology of IPF is unknown, but a central role for microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding regulatory RNAs, has been recently suggested. We report the upregulation of miR-199a-5p in mouse lungs undergoing bleomycin-induced fibrosis and also in human biopsies from IPF patients. Levels of miR-199a-5p were increased selectively in myofibroblasts and putative profibrotic effects of miR-199a-5p were further investigated in cultured lung fibroblasts. MiR-199a-5p expression was induced upon TGFβ exposure and ectopic expression of miR-199a-5p was sufficient to promote the pathogenic activation of pulmonary fibroblasts. CAV1, a critical mediator of pulmonary fibrosis, was established as a bona fide target of miR-199a-5p. Finally, we also found an aberrant expression of miR-199a-5p in mouse models of kidney and liver fibrosis, suggesting that dysregulation of miR-199a-5p represents a general mechanism contributing to the fibrotic process. We propose miR-199a-5p as a major regulator of fibrosis that represents a potential therapeutic target to treat fibroproliferative diseases.
