Project description:In order to determine the serum microRNAs profile from middle-old aged patients with acute ischemic stroke and investigate possible diagnostic value of these differential microRNAs.The blood samples of 117 IS patients and 82 healthy people were collected. Differential miRNAs in serum from IS and control were screened with miRNA microarray analysis, and the expression of selected miRNAs were validated by quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction assays (qRT-PCR). Results: We discovered 115 differentially expressed miRNAs, among which miR-32-3p, miR-106-5p, miR-532-5p were found be related to IS for the first time. Conclusions: In the present study, we identified the changed expression pattern of miRNAs in IS. Serum miR-32-3p, miR-106-5p, miR-1246 and miR-532-5p may serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers for IS.

Project description:Using the highly sensitive miRNA array, we determined the serum miRNAs profiles of 10 non-smokers, 10 smokers and 10 lung cancer patients by miRCURY LNA™ microRNA Arrays. Differential expressed miRNAs were further validated in a larger scale samples. We found that let-7i-3p and miR-154-5p were significantly downregulation in serum of smokers and lung cancer patients. The serum level of let-7i-3p and miR-154-5p is associated with smoking and smoking-related lung cancer. In this study, we mix 10 samples with equal volume of each group(non-smoking control group,smoking group and lung cancer group ) and run RNA extractions. And then miRCURYTM LNA Array (v.16.0) was applied in the studying of miRNA expression profile and its alteration to gain the miRNA expression profile to compare the variety between each two groups respectively.

Project description:Breast Cancer is the cancer with most incidence and mortality in women. microRNAs are emerging as novel prognosis/diagnostic tools. Our aim was to identify a serum microRNA signature useful to predict cancer development. We focused on studying the expression levels of 30 microRNAs in the serum of 96 breast cancer patients versus 92 control individuals. Bioinformatic studies provide a microRNA signature, designated as a predictor, based upon the expression levels of 5 microRNAs. Then, we tested the predictor in a group of 60 randomly chosen women. Lastly, a proteomic study unveiled the over-expression and down-regulation of proteins differently expressed in the serum of breast cancer patients versus that of control individuals. Twenty-six microRNAs differentiate cancer tissue from healthy tissue and 16 microRNAs differentiate the serum of cancer patients from that of the control group. The tissue expression of miR-99a-5p, mir-497-5p, miR-362, and miR-1274, and the serum levels of miR-141 correlated with patient survival. Moreover, the predictor consisting of mir-125b-5p, miR-29c-3p, mir-16-5p, miR-1260, and miR-451a was able to differentiate breast cancer patients from controls. The predictor was validated in 20 new cases of breast cancer patients and tested in 60 volunteer women, assigning 11 out of 60 women to the cancer group. An association of low levels of mir-16-5p with a high content of CD44 protein in serum was found. Circulating microRNAs in serum can represent biomarkers for cancer prediction. Their clinical relevance and use of the predictor here described might be of potential importance for breast cancer prediction.

Project description:Thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1), also known as NKX2-1, plays a role as a lineage-survival oncogene in lung adenocarcinoma with double-edged sword characteristics. Although previous studies steadily accumulated evidence for roles of TTF-1 in the transcriptional regulation of protein-coding genes, very little is known about its regulatory relationship with miRNAs. In this study, we have identified miR-532-5p as a novel transcriptional target of TTF-1 by an integrative approach, which was designed to extract maximal information from expression profiles of both patient tumors in vivo and TTF-1-inducible cell lines in vitro. Consequently, we have found that miR-532-5p is directly regulated by TTF-1 through its binding to a genomic region 8 kb upstream of miR-532-5p, which appeared to impose transcriptional regulation independent of that of CLCN5, a protein-coding gene harboring miR-532-5p in its intron 3. Further, we have also identified KRAS and MKL2 as novel direct targets of miR-532-5p. Introduction of miR-532-5p mimics markedly induced apoptosis in KRAS-mutant as well as KRAS wildtype lung adenocarcinoma cell lines. Interestingly, miR-532-5p affected the MEK-ERK pathway signaling specifically in cell lines sensitive to siKRAS treatment, while the miR-532-5p-mediated effects were clearly phenocopied by repressing expression or inhibiting function of MKL2 regardless of KRAS mutation status. In summary, our findings demonstrate that miR-532-5p is as novel transcriptional target of TTF-1 and plays a tumor suppressive role by targeting KRAS and MKL2 in lung adenocarcinoma. Novel therapeutic strategies using miR-532-5p or an MKL2 inhibitor may prove effective against this hard-to-cure cancer irrespective of the dependence on KRAS-mediated signaling.

Project description:Purpose: RNA-Seq has become a powerful tool for investigating transcriptional profiles in gene expression analysis, which would help to reveal the molecular mechanism of Clostridium perfringens type C infecting the piglets. In this study, we analyzed miRNA profiles of the spleen of piglets caused by Clostridium perfringens type C. Methods: 30 normal 7-day-old piglets (Y x L), without infecting Clostridium perfringens type C, Escherichia coli and Salmonella, were selected as experimental subjects. 25 piglets were randomly selected as the experimental group, which were disposed once a day for 5 days. Each piglet was dosed with 1 ml of bouillon culture-medium inoculated Clostridium perfringens type C at 37℃ for 16h, which approximate to 1 x109 CFU per ml. Then, 5 piglets were randomly selected as the control group (SC), which were taken the equal volume medium for 5 days.Based on total diarrhea scores, 25 piglets were ranked from high to low. The top and last five piglet were considered as sensitive group (SS) and resistant group (SR), respectively. Finally, spleen were collected and sequenced for miRNA. Result: 88 differentially expressed miRNAs were found. KEGG pathway analysis for target genes revealed that these miRNAs were involved in MAPK signaling pathway, mTOR signaling pathway, FoxO signaling pathway, p53 signaling pathway and ECM-receptor interaction. And 4 miRNAs (miR-133b, miR-532-3p, miR-339-5p and miR-331-3p) of closely related to piglets resistance to C. perfringens type C were obtained. The expression correlation analysis between these miRNAs and target genes revealed that the expression of miR-133b and miR-532-3p had negative correlation with their target NFATC4, miR-339-5p had negative correlation with target HTRA3, and miR-339-5p and miR-331-3p had negative correlation with target TNFAIP8L2 in spleen, suggesting that miR-133b and miR-532-3p targeting to NFATC4, miR-339-5p targeting to HTRA3, and miR-339-5p and miR-331-3p targeting to TNFAIP8L2 were probably involved in piglet resisting C. perfringens type C. Conclusions:The results will provide value resources for better understanding of the genetic basis of C. perfringens type C resistance in piglet and lays a new foundation for identifying novel markers of C. perfringens type C resistance.

Project description:Few have characterized miRNA expression during the transition from injury to neural repair and secondary neurodegeneration following stroke in humans. We compared expression of 754 miRNAs from plasma samples collected 5, 15, and 30 days post-ischemic stroke from a discovery cohort (n=55) and 15-days post-ischemic stroke from a validation cohort (n=48) to healthy control samples (n=55 and 48 respectively) matched for age, sex, race and cardiovascular comorbidities using qRT-PCR. Eight miRNAs remained significantly altered across all time points in both cohorts including many described in acute stroke. The number of significantly dysregulated miRNAs more than doubled from post-stroke day 5 (19 miRNAs) to days 15 (50 miRNAs) and 30 (57 miRNAs). Twelve brain-enriched miRNAs were significantly altered at one or more time points (decreased expression, stroke versus controls: miR-107; increased expression: miR-99-5p, miR-127-3p, miR-128-3p, miR-181a-3p, miR-181a-5p, miR-382-5p, miR-433-3p, miR-491-5p, miR-495-3p, miR-874-3p, and miR-941). Many brain-enriched miRNAs were associated with apoptosis over the first month post-stroke whereas other miRNAs suggested a transition to synapse regulation and neuronal protection by day 30. These findings suggest that a program of decreased cellular proliferation may last at least 30 days post-stroke, and points to specific miRNAs that could contribute to neural repair in humans.

Project description:From serum samples of non-dialyzed and dialyzed patients with ADPKD and healthy control total RNA was isolated and miRNA expression was evaluated. Circulating microRNAs (miRNA) are important intercellular communication compounds. We investigated the influence of ADPKD (autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease) and hemodialysis on the profile of serum miRNAs. We found 37 significant circulating miRNA that differ between ADPKD patients (dialyzed and non-dialyzed) and healthy controls. Bioinformatic analysis revealed strongest connections between those miRNAs and KEGG pathway: MicroRNAs in cancer. We selected 3 miRNAs with highest and 3 with lowest fold change in comparison of dialyzed and non-dialyzed patients and compared their expression in paired pre-/post-dialysis samples. All up-regulated miRNAs (miR-532-3p, miR-320b, miR-144-5p) were not significantly altered by hemodialysis. From down-regulated miRNAs miR-27a-3p was shown to be significantly lower after dialysis in both total and exosomal fraction. MiR-20a-5p was down-regulated after dialysis only in the exosomal fraction whereas miR-16-5p was unaltered by hemodialysis. MiR-16-5p was selected as the best circulating biomarker of ADPKD with miR-22-3p, let-7i-5p and miR-24-3p as following best ones. Circulating representatives of miR-17 family (new drug target of ADPKD (Hajarnis et al. 2017)) sharing the same seed region (miR-20a-5p, miR-93-5p and miR-106a-5p) showed significantly lowered expressed in sera of dialyzed patients vs non-dialyzed ones and their exosomal fraction dropped after hemodialysis. We concluded that serum miRNA among ADPKD patients differ substantially depending on the stage of CKD. These alterations show possible links with cancer. The exosomal fraction of miRNA was more affected by dialysis than total fraction of miRNAs suggesting their dynamically changing functional role.

Project description:The identification of miRNAs’ targets and associated regulatory networks might allow the definition of new strategies using drugs whose association might mimic a given miRNA’s effects. Based on this assumption our group devised a multi-omics approach in an attempt to precisely characterize miRNAs’ effects. We combined the analysis of miR-491-5p direct targets, and effects at the transcriptomic and proteomic levels. We thus constructed an interaction network which enlightened highly connected nodes, being either direct or indirect targets of miR-491-5p effects: the already known EGFR and BCL2L1, but also EP300, CTNNB1 and several small-GTPases. By using different combinations of specific inhibitors of these nodes, we could greatly enhance their respective cytotoxicity and mimic miR-491-5p-induced phenotype. Our methodology thus constitutes an interesting strategy to comprehensively study the effects of a given miRNA. Also, we identified targets for which pharmacological inhibitors are already available for a clinical use, or in clinical trial phases. This study might thus enable innovative therapeutic options for ovarian cancer, which remains the first cause of death from gynecological malignancies in developed countries.
