Microarray analysis to identify miRNA targetome of primary Burkitt lymphoma tumors in comparison to normal CD19+ B cells


ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs involved in the posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Deregulated miRNA levels have been reported in Burkitt lymphoma (BL) compared to normal B cells and a number of miRNA target genes have been identified in BL cell lines. Here, we determined for the first time the miRNA targetomes of primary BL tumors in comparison with normal B cells. AGO2-RNA immunoprecipitation (AGO2-RIP) in two frozen diagnostic BL tissue samples and three CD19+ B-cell samples isolated from routinely removed tonsils revealed distinct miRNA targetomes of BL and normal B cells. Targets of the miR-17~92 cluster were significantly more frequently AGO2-IP enriched in BL while targets of miR-29 and miR-150 were more frequently AGO2-IP enriched in normal B cells. Furthermore, we showed that miRNA target genes in BL are mainly involved in cell cycle and cell death. Immunohistochemistry on BL tumor samples and tonsil tissues confirmed altered protein levels for two out of six selected miRNA targets, in line with the differential AGO2-IP enrichment between BL and normal B cells. A comparison of AGO2-IP enriched genes in primary BL cases with BL cell lines indicated that approximately half of the miRNA targets may be missed in studies using BL cell lines, while almost 60% of miRNA target genes identified in cell lines were not AGO2-IP enriched in primary BL cases. Our results demonstrate both the necessity and feasibility of studying miRNA-target interactions in primary tumors.
