MiRNA expression profiling and to explore the role of miRNAs in DC120-mediated Sox2 down-regulation

ABSTRACT: From the results of microarray, 7616 miRNAs with significantly different expression ratios were selected when CNE-2-S-18/SP cells were treated with DC120. Among these, 80 miRNAs were up-regulated and 78 were down-regulated. We then chose 20 miRNAs through the qRT M-bM-^@M-^S PCR, and our results showed that 9 miRNAs were up-regulated after treatment with DC120, which was consistent with the results of the microarray. Among these, miR-30a were significantly up-regulated. These results indicated that miR 30a expression was up-regulated by DC120. We then investigated the role of miR 30a in DC120-treated cells, we explored its potential targets using a bioinformatics approach of complementary base pairing. The relative luciferase activity of the reporter that contained the wild type 3' UTR was significantly suppressed when miR 30a was contransfected. In contrast, the luciferase activity of the mutant reporter was unaffected by the contransfection of miR 30a, indicating that miR 30a suppressed Sox2 gene expression using the miR 30a binding sequence at the 3' UTR of the Sox2 gene. Additionally, the ectopic expression of miR 30a caused a decrease in Sox2 protein expression and mRNA levels in CNE-2-S-18 cells. These data demonstrate that miR 30a may directly target the Sox2 gene via seed matches on both 3' UTR. Taken together, our results demonstrate that DC120 regulates Sox2 via up-regulation of miR 30a. In this study, two samples were used to acquire the miRNA expression profiling. We analyzed the differences in miRNA profiles between control (DMSO solution) and DC120 treatment in CNE-2-S-18/SP cells from miRNA microarrays. The CNE-2-S-18/SP cells were separately cultured with a DMSO solution or 10M-NM-

Project description:The regulation of gene expression in cells, including by microRNAs (miRNAs), is a dynamic process. Current methods for identifying microRNA targets by combining sequence, miRNA and mRNA expression data do not adequately utilize the temporal information and thus miss important miRNAs and their targets. We developed a new method, mirDREM, that uses probabilistic modeling to reconstruct dynamic regulatory networks which explain how temporal gene expression is jointly regulated by microRNAs and transcription factors (TFs). We used mirDREM to study the regulation of postnatal lung development in mice. The reconstructed network for this process identified several known miRNAs and TFs and provided novel predictions about additional miRNAs and the specific developmental phases they regulate. Microarray data of Mouse Lung Epithelial cells MLE-12 after transfection with inhibitors for miR-30a, miR-30d, miR-23b and miR-125 and with precursors for miR-337, miR-466a, miR466d and miR-476c. The results provide a general insight into the gene expression profile which was modulated by the inhibition or overexpression of these microRNAs. We experimentally validated several predictions and show that miR-30d, miR-30a, and miR-467c are new regulators of proliferation in lung cells. Our analysis establishes new links between identified miRNAs and lung diseases, supporting recent evidence that such diseases may represent reversal of lung differentiation. We first analyzed the endogenous expression of miR-30a, miR-30d, miR-23b, miR-125, miR-337, miR-466a, miR466d and miR-476c in MLE-12 cells. Then, we transfected the MLE-12 cells with inhibitors ( miR-30a, miR-30d, miR-23b and miR-125) for the highly expressed and precursos for those that were almost undetectable (miR-337, miR-466a, miR466d and miR-476c). RNA level of the 8 microRNAs was verify by qRT-PCR in order to validate the transfection efficiency. Finally, 0.5ug of total RNA was used to performe the gene expression microarrays for each condition

Project description:Background: Rosmarinic acid (RA), a natural phenolic acid, exhibits promising anti-cancer properties. The abnormal expression of microRNA (miRNA) regulates the gene expression and plays a role as an oncogenic or tumor suppressor in TNBC. However, the biological role of RA in miR-30a-5p on BCL2L11 during MDA-MB-231 induced breast cancer stem-like cells (BCSCs) progression and its regulatory mechanism have not been elucidated. Objective: To investigate whether RA inhibited the silencing effect of miR-30a-5p on the BCL2L11 gene and promoted apoptosis in BCSCs. Materials and Methods: We assessed the migration, colony formation, proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis of BCSCs after RA treatment using the wound-healing assay, colony formation assay, CCK-8 assay, and flow cytometry, respectively. The expression of mRNA and protein levels of BCL-2, Bax, BCL2L11, and P53 genes in BCSCs after RA treatment was obtained by real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. Differential miRNA expression in BCSCs was analyzed by high-throughput sequencing. Targetscan was utilized to predict the targets of miR-30a-5p. The dual luciferase reporter system was used for validation of the miR-30a-5p target. Results: Wound-healing assay, colony formation assay, CCK-8 assay, and cell cycle assay results showed that RA inhibited migration, colony formation and viability of BCSCs, and cell cycle arrest in the G0-G1 phase. At the highest dose of RA, we noticed cell atrophy, while the arrest rate at 100 μg/mL RA surpassed that at 200 μg/mL RA. Apoptotic cells appeared early (Membrane Associated Protein V FITC+, PI-) or late (Membrane Associated Protein V FITC+, PI+) upon administration of 200 μg/mL RA, Using high-throughput sequencing to compare the differences in miRNA expression, we detected down-regulation of miR-30a-5p expression, and the results of dual luciferase reporter gene analysis indicated that BCL2L11 was a direct target of miR-30a-5p. Conclusion: RA inhibited the silencing effect of miR-30a-5p on the BCL2L11 gene and enhanced apoptosis in BCSCs. Keywords Apoptosis; miR-30a-5p; BCSCs; Rosmarinic acid; Triple-negative breast cancer
