A Daphnane Diterpenoid Isolated from Wikstroemia polyantha induces an inflammatory response and modulates miRNA activity


ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenously expressed single-stranded ~21M-bM-^@M-^S23 nucleotide RNAs that inhibit gene expression post-transcriptionally by binding imperfectly to elements usually within the 3M-bM-^@M-2untranslated region (3M-bM-^@M-2UTR) of mRNAs. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) mediate site-specific cleavage by binding with perfect complementarity to RNA. Here, a cell-based miRNA reporter system was developed to screen for compounds from marine and plant extracts that inhibit miRNA or siRNA activity. The daphnane diterpenoid genkwanine M (GENK) isolated from the plant Wikstroemia polyantha induces an early inflammatory response and can moderately inhibit miR-122 activity in the liver Huh-7 cell line. GENK does not alter miR-122 levels nor does it directly inhibit siRNA activity in an in vitro cleavage assay. Finally, we demonstrate that GENK can inhibit HCV infection in Huh-7 cells. In summary, the development of the cell-based miRNA sensor system should prove useful in identifying compounds that affect miRNA/siRNA activity. Control (no drug treatment): 1 hour and 4 hour samples, 3 replicates each; Drug-treated: 1 hour and 4 hours samples, 3 replicates each
