Expression of Long Noncoding RNAs in Fibroblasts from Mucopolysaccharidosis Patients.

ABSTRACT: In this report, changes in the levels of various long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were demonstrated for the first time in fibroblasts derived from patients suffering from 11 types/subtypes of mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS). Some kinds of lncRNA (SNHG5, LINC01705, LINC00856, CYTOR, MEG3, and GAS5) were present at especially elevated levels (an over six-fold change relative to the control cells) in several types of MPS. Some potential target genes for these lncRNAs were identified, and correlations between changed levels of specific lncRNAs and modulations in the abundance of mRNA transcripts of these genes (HNRNPC, FXR1, TP53, TARDBP, and MATR3) were found. Interestingly, the affected genes code for proteins involved in various regulatory processes, especially gene expression control through interactions with DNA or RNA regions. In conclusion, the results presented in this report suggest that changes in the levels of lncRNAs can considerably influence the pathomechanism of MPS through the dysregulation of the expression of certain genes, especially those involved in the control of the activities of other genes.

Project description:PurposeTo describe the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) profiles in cumulus cells isolated from polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients by employing a microarray and in-depth bioinformatics analysis. This information will help us understand the occurrence and development of PCOS.MethodsIn this study, we used a microarray to describe lncRNA profiles in cumulus cells isolated from ten patients (five PCOS and five normal women). Several differentially expressed lncRNAs were chosen to validate the microarray results by quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). Then, the differentially expressed lncRNAs were classified into three subgroups (HOX loci lncRNA, enhancer-like lncRNA, and lincRNA) to deduce their potential features. Furthermore, a lncRNA/mRNA co-expression network was constructed by using the Cytoscape software (V2.8.3, http://www.cytoscape.org/ ).ResultsWe observed that 623 lncRNAs and 260 messenger RNAs (mRNAs) were significantly up- or down-regulated (≥2-fold change), and these differences could be used to discriminate cumulus cells of PCOS from those of normal patients. Five differentially expressed lncRNAs (XLOC_011402, ENST00000454271, ENST00000433673, ENST00000450294, and ENST00000432431) were selected to validate the microarray results using quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). The qRT-PCR results were consistent with the microarray data. Further analysis indicated that many differentially expressed lncRNAs were transcribed from chromosome 2 and may act as enhancers to regulate their neighboring protein-coding genes. Forty-three lncRNAs and 29 mRNAs were used to construct the coding-non-coding gene co-expression network. Most pairs positively correlated, and one mRNA correlated with one or more lncRNAs.ConclusionsOur study is the first to determine genome-wide lncRNA expression patterns in cumulus cells isolated from PCOS patients by microarray. The results show that clusters of lncRNAs were aberrantly expressed in cumulus cells of PCOS patients compared with those of normal women, which revealed that lncRNAs differentially expressed in PCOS and normal women may contribute to the occurrence of PCOS and affect oocyte development.

Project description:A hypertrophic scar is the result of abnormal repair of the body after trauma. Histopathologically, it is mostly the result of the excessive proliferation of fibroblasts and the accumulation of extracellular matrix. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have a critical role in the regulation of gene expression and in the pathogenesis of diseases. However, the roles of lncRNAs in hypertrophic scars have remained elusive. The present study investigated the profiles of differentially expressed lncRNAs between fibroblasts derived from a hypertrophic scar and normal skin, and explored the possible mechanisms underlying the development of hypertrophic scars. Microarray data indicated that 6,104 lncRNAs and 2,952 mRNAs were differentially expressed. A set of differentially expressed transcripts as confirmed by reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses were performed to determine the principal functions of the significantly deregulated genes. Furthermore, associated expression networks, including subgroup analysis, competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) and coding‑noncoding co‑expression networks were constructed using bioinformatics methods. The homology between differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs was assessed and two exon lncRNA were selected to explore their regulatory mechanisms. The ceRNA network inferred that NR_125715 acted as a competing endogenous RNA, bound to microRNA (miR)‑141‑3p, miR‑200a‑3p and miR‑29 to regulate the expression of the miRs' targets, including transforming growth factor β2 (TGFB2). Similarly, NR_046402 acted as a competing endogenous RNA, which bound to miR‑133a‑3p.1 and miR‑4469 to then regulate the expression of the miRs' targets, including DNA polymerase δ1, catalytic subunit (POLD1). In addition, co‑expression analysis indicated that the expression of lncRNAs NR_125715 and NR_046402 was correlated with that of TGFB2 and POLD1 mRNA. The identification of these differentially expressed lncRNAs in the hypertrophic scar‑derived fibroblasts in the present study, may provide novel insight into the functional interactions of lncRNA, miRNA and mRNA, and lead to novel theories for the pathogenesis and treatment of hypertrophic scars.
