ABSTRACT: A high-resolution time series study of transcriptome dynamics following antimiR--mediated inhibition of miR-9 in a Hodgkin lymphoma cell-line revealed both general and miR-9 specific aspects of the miRNA--mediated post--transcriptional dynamic response.MiR-9 inhibition induced a multiphasic gene response, with an initial direct response at approximately 4 hours and multiple later responses which showed transcription factor enrichments indicative of indirect causally downstream responses, and an overall shift of gene product function from predominantly mRNA processing at early time points to translation at later time points. The full time course used was: 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,26,32,40,56,80,112 hours post-miR-9 inhibition. Microarrays were Affymetrix HuGene-10-st-v1. Each LNA-antimiR treated cell sample was matched with an LNA scramble control at each time point. This overall time schedule was divided into two independent biological replicates: one covering early time points (2 hours to 20 hours), and another covering later time points (22 hours to 112 hours).

Project description:We characterize the specific protein interactomes of 3 SARS sgRNAs (S, N, and ORF8) as well as the gRNA at two time points, 8- and 24- hours. These two timepoints were selected to capture early viral infection when RNA synthesis is just beginning, and viral replication is being established, as well as a later stage where protein synthesis and virion packaging is occurring. We identified over 500 proteins associated with one or more of the viral RNAs. These include both host and viral proteins that have been previously shown to bind to SARS-CoV-2 RNAs and novel (not previously identified) protein interactors.
Project description:Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains a major public health burden with increasing prevalence but only few effective therapies. Endothelial dysfunction and inflammation are identified as pathophysiological drivers of HFpEF disease progression. MicroRNAs are increasingly recognized as key regulators of these pathological processes, while antimiR-based therapies have been emerged as promising therapeutics in mice and humans. Therefore, we tested whether targeting miR-92a-3p inhibition is a promising therapeutic intervention to target HFpEF in vivo. By injection of locked nucleic acid (LNA)-based antimiR (LNA-92a) weekly, we demonstrate that inhibition of miR-92a-3p attenuates the development of diastolic dysfunction and left atrial dilation following experimental induction of HFpEF in mice. Indeed, LNA-92a depleted miR-92a-3p expression in the myocardium and peripheral blood, and derepressed predicted target genes in a cell type-specific manner. Furthermore, cell-type specific efficacy of LNA-92a treatment was assessed by single-nuclear RNA sequencing of HFpEF hearts either treated with LNA-92a or LNA-Control. Endothelial cells of LNA-92a treated mice showed normalized vascular gene expression and reduced gene signatures associated with endothelial-mesenchymal transition. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that LNA-based antimiR-92a is an effective therapeutic strategy to target diastolic dysfunction and left atrial dilation in HFpEF.
Project description:This study was designed to explore the role of miRNA-146a (miR-146a) and its target genes in the endothelial cells. In this study we have demonstrated that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced upregulation of miR-146a in the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and the induction was blocked by the silencing of the toll-like receptors (TLRs) adaptor molecules MyD88 and nonspecific NF-M-NM-:B inhibitor BAY 11-7082. In addition, knockdown of miR-146a by transfection of the locked nucleic acid (LNA)-antimiR-146a significantly decreased the increased cell migration and tube formation induced by LPS. A combined analysis of the bioinformatics miRanda algorithms and the whole genome expression microarray of the immunoprecipitated Ago2 ribonucleoprotein complex identified 14 transcripts as the potential target genes. Subsequent transfection with miR-146a precursor pre-miR-146a into the HUVEC validated that the CARD10 was the target gene of the miR-146a both in the transcript and protein level. immunoprecipitation of RNA-induced silencing complexes (RISC) with an Ago2-specific monoclonal antibody followed by RNA extraction and subsequent quantification of mRNAs on microarrays was utilized to identify mRNAs that are associated with the RNA-silencing machinery and are therefore targets of cellular miRNAs. In brief, 100 M-NM-<g of total protein was diluted with 200 M-NM-<L of PBS buffer (pH 7.4). For each sample, 25 M-NM-<L of Protein A/G plus agarose (Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX) was washed with PBS and incubated with 2 M-NM-<g of rabbit anti-Ago2 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA) or rabbit normal IgG (Santa Cruz) antibodies for 2 h at 4M-BM-0C. The beads containing the immobilized anti-Ago2 antibody were then added to 400 M-NM-<L of diluted serum and incubated for 4 h at 4M-BM-0C. The beads were washed 3 times with 1% NT-2 buffer (1% Nonidet P-40, 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, and 2 mM EDTA) and the mixture was split in half. Each sample was eluted in 600 M-NM-<L of lysis/binding buffer for total RNA extraction and subsequent whole genome array experiment. Microarray analyses. Microarray experiments were performed on the total RNA samples from the Ago2 immunoprecipitate (pooling from n=4 in each group) from 1M-CM-^W106 HUVEC with or without 1 M-NM-<g/mL LPS treatment for 24 h in the presence or absence of miR-146a knockdown by LNA-antimiR-146a or LNA-control, respectively. The procedures were carried out following the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocols. Briefly, 0.5 M-NM-<g of total RNA was amplified by a Fluorescent Linear Amplification Kit (Agilent Technologies) and labeled with Cy3-CTP or Cy5-CTP (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA) during the in vitro transcription process. RNA from the experimental groups and control group was labeled by Cy5 and Cy3, respectively. A total of 0.825 M-NM-<g of Cy-labled cRNA was fragmented to an average size of about 50-100 nucleotides by incubation with fragmentation buffer (Agilent Technologies) at 60oC for 30 minutes. Correspondingly fragmented labeled cRNA is then pooled and hybridized to Agilent Whole Human Genome 4x44k oligo microarray (Agilent Technologies) at 60M-BM-0C for 17 h. After washing and drying by nitrogen gun blowing, microarrays are scanned with an Agilent microarray scanner (Agilent Technologies) at 535 nm for Cy3 and 625 nm for Cy5. Scanned images are analyzed by Feature extraction software 9.5.3 (Agilent Technologies), an image analysis and normalization software is used to quantify signal and background intensity for each feature, substantially normalized the data by rank-consistency-filtering LOWESS method.
Project description:microRNA-155 acts as an oncogenic miRNA in B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders including Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM) and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). we used an 8-mer LNA (locked nucleic acid) phosphorothioate oligonucleotide targeting the seed region of miR-155 to effectively antagonize in vitro tumor growth in WM. We performed gene expression profiling (GEP) analysis on BCWM.1 cells after treatment with LNA antimiR-155 or scramble control for 48 hours.

Project description:In the context of studying visceral leishmaniasis, neutrophils infected with Leishmania donovani have been compared to uninfected neutrophils. Compared time points are 0, 6 and 24 hours post infection. Neutrophils of three human donors have been used. Overall 6 samples for infected neutrophils at time point 6 hours and 6 samples for infected neutrophils at time point 24 hours exist, including three biological samples and two technical samples. Uninfected neutrophils represent 3 samples at time point 0 hours, 3 samples at time point 6 hours and 3 samples at time point 24 hours. Transcriptome of Leishmania donovani culture has been assessed in two replicates.
Project description:In order to identify YBX1-dependent targets that are modulated upon changing the levels of endogenous tRFs, we used transient transfection of antisense locked-nucleic acids (LNAs) against tRFAsp, tRFGly, tRFGlu, and tRFTyr followed by alpha-amanitine treatment, RNA extraction at time points 0 and 8hr post-treatment, and transcriptomic profiling. Synthetic antisense locked-nucleic acids (LNAs) targeting the YBX1 binding site on tRFAsp, tRFGly, tRFGlu, and tRFTyr were transfected into control and YBX1-knockdown cells to identify YBX1-dependent targets whose stabilities are modulated due to tRF loss-of-function. We used alpha-amanitine mediated inhibition of RNA-polymerase to measure transcript stability across the entire transcriptome.
