MRNA expression profile in PCa And BPH from Chinese patients

ABSTRACT: To study the miRNA modulating network and different expressed miRNA lists in prostate cancer, we use hight-throught method to genomically detect the expression profile of miRNA, mRNA and protein. Agilent microarray products for miRNA and mRNA expression profile are choosed. As possible as we can to use the same sample for miRNA, mRNA and protein experiment. 4 prostate cancer and 4 normal tissue are applied to mRNA microarray experiment. The mRNA microaaray experiment service are supplied by ShanghaiBio Corporation(Shanghai,China).

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in cell differentiation and self-renewal controlling post-transcriptional processing of mRNAs and attenuating production of the encoded proteins. Here, we unveil a novel oncogenic pathway leading to activation of STAT3 signaling through miRNA-mediated silencing of the E3 ubiquitin ligase COP1. miRNA profiling showed that miR-424 was upregulated in prostate cancer compared to normal prostate and specifically associated with reduced level of the ETS factor ESE3/EHF in an aggressive subgroup of tumors. MiR-424 was significantly elevated also in other epithelial cancers and amplified in 1-3% of various cancers. In normal prostate epithelial cells miR-424 was repressed by ESE3/EHF and when upregulated promoted oncogenic and cancer stem cell (CSC) properties. Conversely, ablation of miR-424 in metastatic prostate cancer cells reduced CSC self-renewal and prevented in vivo tumour initiation and metastatic spread. miR-424 targeted the 3' UTR of COP1 mRNA and reduced COP1 protein level. COP1 induced STAT3 ubiquitylation and degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). Therefore, reduced levels of COP1 in prostate cancer cells, resulted in accumulation and increased STAT3 signaling. COP1 knockdown and over-expression phenocopied the effects of miR-424 deregulation on oncogenic phenotypes and STAT3 signalling, while STAT3 knockdown prevented the transforming effects of miR-424. Consistently, expression of EHF/ESE3 and RFWD2/COP1 were highly correlated in human prostate cancers and other epithelial tumors. Furthermore, miR-424 induced genes were enriched of STAT3 targets, converged with those induced by COP1 loss in mouse embryos and were associated with adverse prognosis in prostate and other epithelial cancers. In primary prostate tumours, low COP1 and high STAT3 protein level were also significantly associated and predictive of biochemical relapse. Collectively, this study reveals a novel miRNA-activated oncogenic axis in prostate cancer. Targeting miR-424 or miR-424 dependent pathways may represent a unique approach to attack a key node in tumorigenesis.
