Influenza B virus is a member of the <i>Orthomyxoviridae</i> family which can infect humans and causes influenza. Although it is not pandemic like influenza A virus, it nevertheless affects millions of people worldwide annually. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs regulating gene expression at posttranscriptional level. They play various important roles in cellular processes including response to viral infection. MiRNA profiles from our previous study suggested that miR-30e-3p was one of the upr ...[more]

Project description:Lysine acetylation is a post-translational modification known to regulate protein functions. Here we identify several acetylation sites of the influenza A virus nucleoprotein (NP), including the lysine residues K77, K113 and K229. Viral growth of mutant virus encoding K229R, mimicking a non-acetylated NP lysine residue, is severely impaired compared to wildtype or the mutant viruses encoding K77R or K113R. This attenuation is not the result of decreased polymerase activity, altered protein expression or disordered vRNP co-segregation but rather caused by impaired particle release. Interestingly, release deficiency is also observed mimicking constant acetylation at this site (K229Q), whereas virus encoding NP-K113Q could not be generated. However, mimicking NP hyper-acetylation at K77 and K229 severely diminishes viral polymerase activity, while mimicking NP hypo-acetylation at these sites has no effect on viral replication. These results suggest that NP acetylation at K77, K113 and K229 impacts multiple steps in viral replication of influenza A viruses.

Project description:Swine H1N1/2009 influenza is a highly infectious respiratory disease in pigs, which poses a great threat to pig production and human health. In this study, we investigated the global expression profiling of swine-encoded genes in response to swine H1N1/2009 influenza A virus (SIV-H1N1/2009) in newborn pig trachea (NPTr) cells. In total, 166 genes were found to be differentially expressed (DE) according to the gene microarray. After analyzing the DE genes which might affect the SIV-H1N1/2009 replication, we focused on polo-like kinase 3 (PLK3). PLK3 is a member of the PLK family, which is a highly conserved serine/threonine kinase in eukaryotes and well known for its role in the regulation of cell cycle and cell division. We validated that the expression of PLK3 was upregulated after SIV-H1N1/2009 infection. Additionally, PLK3 was found to interact with viral nucleoprotein (NP), significantly increased NP phosphorylation and oligomerization, and promoted viral ribonucleoprotein assembly and replication. Furthermore, we identified serine 482 (S482) as the phosphorylated residue on NP by PLK3. The phosphorylation of S482 regulated NP oligomerization, viral polymerase activity and growth. Our findings provide further insights for understanding the replication of influenza A virus.

Project description:Background/aimAlmost 15% of patients with sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism (sPHPT) present with multiple gland disease (MGD). The aim of this study was to investigate the potential role of two polymorphisms of the hsa-miR-30e, in sPHPT tumorigenesis.Patients and methodsOne-hundred twenty sPHPT patients, 77 presenting a single adenoma and 43 with MGD, and 54 healthy controls were genotyped. The SNPs were identified using the allele-specific PCR methodology, while the hsa-miR-30e expression was analyzed by real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR.ResultsHsa-miR-30e expression was found to be significantly higher in patients with MGD compared to patients with single adenomas (p=0.0019), but no differences were found regarding specific genotype carriers. The genotype frequencies for ss178077483 and rs7556088 were significantly different between patients and healthy controls.ConclusionAlthough the polymorphisms cannot be used as biomarkers for the differential diagnosis of MGD, hsa-miR-30e expression could potentially serve as a biomarker for this purpose.

Project description:Many cellular processes are driven by spatially and temporally regulated microRNAs (miRNAs)-dependent signaling events. Substantial evidence collected over the years indicates that miRNAs are pivotal regulators that contribute to the initiation and development of EV71-related disorders. Importantly, so far, no clinical trial has been undertaken to address the effect of miRNAs on EV71-related diseases. In this study, we show that EV71 infection results in up-regulation of hsa-miR-494-3p levels, and that EV71-induced hsa-miR-494-3p impacts PI3K/Akt signaling pathway by targeting PTEN. However, very little is known about the relationship between hsa-miR-494-3p and EV71 infection. The overall goal of the study is to get a better insight into whether or not hsa-miR-494-3p is involved in the EV71 infection. We found that the EV71 infection induces cellular apoptosis, and that this process can be counteracted by the over-expression of hsa-miR-494-3p mimics. We also present evidence that cell lines deficient in hsa-miR-494-3p are more sensitive to EV71-induced cell death than the corresponding control cells. Collectively, these findings confirm and extend the pervious observation suggesting that disturbances in miRNAs expression can influence EV71 propagation. In addition, they lend strong support to the ideas that hsa-miR-494-3p-mediated signaling pathway plays an important role in the EV71 replication, and that this may have profound implications on our views on EV71-related diseases.

Project description:This study aimed to screen miRNA biomarkers for melanoma progression. Raw melanoma data were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GSE34460, GSE35579, GSE18509, and GSE24996) and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Then, all differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) between benign vs. primary, metastatic vs. benign, and metastatic vs. primary groups were obtained in the GSE34460 and GSE35579 datasets, and the miRNAs related to disease progression were further screened. Then, the miRNA-gene network was constructed, followed by enrichment, survival, and cluster analyses. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs), tumor-infiltrating immune cells, and tumor mutation burden (TMB) between subtypes were analyzed. miRNAs were verified in the GSE18509 and GSE24996 datasets. A total of 132 and 209 DEmiRNAs were obtained in the GSE34460 and GSE35579 datasets, respectively, and 27 DEmiRNAs related to disease progression were screened. hsa-miR-106b-5p, hsa-miR-27b-3p, and hsa-miR-141-3p had a higher degree and were regulated by numerous genes in the miRNA-gene network. Moreover, four miRNAs were associated with prognosis: hsa-let-7c-5p, hsa-miR-130b-3p, hsa-miR-142-3p, and hsa-miR-509-3p. Furthermore, the bidirectional hierarchical clustering of 27 miRNAs was classified into three subtypes, and TMB and four types of immune cells, including activated dendritic cells, naïve CD4 T cells, M1 macrophages, and plasma cells, showed significant differences among the three subtypes. The expression levels of most miRNAs in the GSE18509 and GSE24996 datasets were consistent with those in the training dataset. These miRNAs, including hsa-let-7c-5p, hsa-miR-130b-3p, and hsa-miR-142-3p, and activated dendritic cells, naïve CD4 T cells, M1 macrophages, and plasma cells may play vital roles in the pathogenesis of melanoma.

Project description:The aim of the present study was to identify the differentially expressed microRNAs (DEMs) between Lynch syndrome (LS) and the normal colonic (N-C) control samples, predict the target genes (TGs) and analyze the potential functions of the DEMs and TGs. The miRNA expression dataset GSE30454, which included data of 13 LS and 20 N-C tissue samples, was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus. The classical t-test in Linear Models for Microarray Data package was used for DEM identification. TG prediction was performed using 5 databases. The regulatory network of the DEMs and their TGs was constructed using Cytoscape. Functional and pathway enrichment analysis was performed. The transcription factors (TFs), tumor-associated genes (TAG) and tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) were then identified. Three key DEMs hsa-miR-137, hsa-miR-520e, and hsa-miR-590-3p were identified. Hsa-miR-520e and hsa-miR-137 had 4 common TGs, including SNF related kinase, metal-regulatory transcription factor 1 (MTF1), round spermatid basic protein 1 and YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 3; hsa-miR-590-3p and hsa-miR-137 had 14 common TGs, including NCK adaptor protein 1 (NCK1), EPH receptor A7, and stress-associated endoplasmic reticulum protein 1; hsa-miR-590-3p and hsa-miR-520e had 12 common TGs, including Krüppel-like factor (KLF) 13, twinfilin actin binding protein 1, and nuclear factor I B. Through the functional and pathway enrichments analysis, MTF1 was involved in regulation of gene expression and metabolic processes, and sequence-specific DNA binding TF activity. KLF13 was involved in regulation of gene expression and regulation of cellular metabolic processes. NCK1 was enriched in the axon guidance pathway. In addition, the functional and pathway enrichment analysis showed certain TGs, such as hypoxia-inducible factor 1α, AKT serine/threonine kinase 2, and rapamycin-insensitive companion of mammalian target of rapamycin, participated in the mTOR signaling pathway. The 3 key DEMs hsa-miR-137, hsa-miR-520e, and hsa-miR-590-3p may have important roles in the process of LS.

Project description:Background:Microvascular obstruction (MVO) can result in coronary microcirculation embolism and myocardial microinfarction. Myocardial injury induced by MVO is characterized by continuous ischemia and hypoxia of cardiomyocytes. Autophagy and apoptosis are closely associated with various cardiovascular diseases. Based on our previous study, we observed a decrease in miR-30e-3p expression and an increase in Egr-1 expression in a rat coronary microembolization model. However, the specific function of miR-30e-3p in regulating autophagy and apoptosis in an ischemia/hypoxia (IH) environment remains to be deciphered. We exposed cardiomyocytes to an IH environment and then determined whether miR-30e-3p was involved in promoting cardiomyocyte autophagy and inhibiting apoptosis by regulating Egr-1. Methods:Cardiomyocytes were isolated from rats for our in vitro study. miR-30e-3p was either overexpressed or inhibited by transfection with lentiviral vectors into cardiomyocytes. 3-Methyladenine (3-MA) was used to inhibit autophagy. RT-qPCR and western blotting were used to determine the expression levels of miR-30e-3p, Egr-1, and proteins related to the autophagy and apoptosis process. Autophagic vacuoles and autophagic flux were evaluated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and confocal microscopy, respectively. Cardiomyocyte viability was evaluated using the MTS assay. Cell injury was assessed by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage, and apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry. Results:Both miR-30e-3p expression and autophagy were significantly inhibited, and apoptosis was increased in cardiomyocytes after 9 hours of IH exposure. Overexpression of miR-30e-3p increased autophagy and inhibited apoptosis, as well as suppressed Egr-1 expression and decreased cell injury. In addition, inhibition of miR-30e-3p reduced autophagy and increased apoptosis and cell injury. Conclusions:miR-30e-3p may be involved in promoting cardiomyocyte autophagy and inhibiting apoptosis by indirectly regulating Egr-1 expression in an IH environment.

Project description:Background/aimsMost recently, micro RNAs (miRNAs/miRs) have been suggested to play a key role in various physiological and pathological processes by regulating the expression of specific genes. The influence of miR-377-3p on multitudinous cancer cells has been investigated; however, its function in melanoma remains undiscovered. Armadillo repeat-containing protein 8 (ARMC8), a target of miR-377-3p, plays essential roles in proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. Our research aimed to detect the specific roles of miR-377-3p in melanoma.MethodsThe MiRNA and mRNA expressions were evaluated by a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction in the A375 and HEMa-LP cell lines. We predicted the possible interactions between microRNA and mRNAs by bioinformatics database and constructed them with the Cytoscape software. The proliferation and migration activities were investigated using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) and wound-healing assay. Validation of the correlation between miR-377-3p and ARMC8 was implemented by the luciferase reporter assay and PCR.ResultsThe expression of miR-377-3p was found to be lower in malignant melanoma cells. The upregulation of miR-377-3p inhibited the melanoma cell proliferation, migration, and ARMC8 expression. miR-377-3p was identified to bind to the 3'UTR region of ARMC8 directly; this indicated that miR-377-3p suppressed melanoma cell growth partly mediated via the ARMC8 expression.ConclusionThese findings show that miR-377-3p negatively regulates tumor growth in malignant melanoma, which may thus provide a potential biological target for melanoma treatment and subsequently lead to the development of potential treatments.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in the regulation of gene expression and are involved in many cellular processes including inhibition of viral replication in infected cells. In this study, three subtypes of influenza A viruses (pH1N1, H5N1 and H3N2) were analyzed to identify candidate human miRNAs targeting and silencing viral genes expression. Candidate human miRNAs were predicted by miRBase and RNAhybrid based on minimum free energy (MFE) and hybridization patterns between human miRNAs and viral target genes. In silico analysis presented 76 miRNAs targeting influenza A viruses, including 70 miRNAs that targeted specific subtypes (21 for pH1N1, 27 for H5N1 and 22 for H3N2) and 6 miRNAs (miR-216b, miR-3145, miR-3682, miR-4513, miR-4753 and miR-5693) that targeted multiple subtypes of influenza A viruses. Interestingly, miR-3145 is the only candidate miRNA targeting all three subtypes of influenza A viruses. The miR-3145 targets to PB1 encoding polymerase basic protein 1, which is the main component of the viral polymerase complex. The silencing effect of miR-3145 was validated by 3'-UTR reporter assay and inhibition of influenza viral replication in A549 cells. In 3'-UTR reporter assay, results revealed that miR-3145 triggered significant reduction of the luciferase activity. Moreover, expression of viral PB1 genes was also inhibited considerably (P value < 0.05) in viral infected cells expressing mimic miR-3145. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that human miR-3145 triggered silencing of viral PB1 genes and lead to inhibition of multiple subtypes of influenza viral replication. Therefore, hsa-miR-3145 might be useful for alternative treatment of influenza A viruses in the future.

Project description:Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignancies and its mortality is the highest among females. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a novel group of non-coding RNAs, play an important regulatory role in angiogenesis and cancer progression. Hsa_circ_0053063 is a circRNA generated from several exons of HADHA. The potential role of hsa_circ_0053063 in BC remains unknown and needs to be explored. Hsa_circ_0053063 was mainly located in the cytoplasm and activated in BC tissues and cell lines. The binding position between hsa_circ_0053063 and miR-330-3p was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. Moreover, hsa_circ_0053063 inhibited cell viability, proliferation, and progression of BC through the negative regulation of miR-330-3p. Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is a direct target of miR-330-3p. Besides, the over-expression of miR-330-3p promoted cell progression by directly targeting and regulating PDCD4. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0053063 activated PDCD4 by targeting miR-330-3p to inhibit BC progression. In conclusion, hsa_circ_0053063 inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation via hsa_circ_0053063/hsa-miR-330-3p/PDCD4 axis, which may provide a new therapeutic target for BC patients.
