Comprehensive analysis of hippocampal miRNAomes in humans and mice.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small endogenous regulatory RNAs involved in hippocampal functions and lesions. Mouse has been regarded as an effective tool to explore the roles of miRNAs in hippocampus. Although the anatomical structure and physiological function across human and mouse hippocampi are highly conserved, the similarity and difference of hippocampal miRNAomes between the two species have not been well characterized. Our present study represents the first attempt to perform a systematic comparison of the miRNAomes between healthy human and mouse hippocampi using high-throughput sequencing followed by bioinformatic analyses. Contrasting between human and mouse hippocampal miRNAs shows a global similarity of expression pattern; however, the interspecific expression conservation of hippocampal miRNAs is positively associated with the interspecific sequence conservation. Although the type of the abundantly expressed hippocampal miRNAs is almost the same across the two species, only the enriched miRNAs in human hippocampus exhibit potential neuro-related activities. In addition, we also identified a novel miRNA and a species-specific miRNA in human hippocampus whose putative targets are associated with neuro-related activities. Collectively, our results can provide a framework to explore the ability of mice to model the physiological and pathological processes of human hippocampus and also aid in understanding the basis for higher order abilities of learning and memory at the miRNA level.

Sex-Dependent Changes of miRNA Levels in the Hippocampus of Adrenalectomized Rats Following Acute Corticosterone Administration

Project description:We explored sex-biased effects of the primary stress glucocorticoid hormone corticosterone on the miRNA expression profile in the rat hippocampus. Adult adrenalectomized (ADX) female and male rats received a single corticosterone (10 mg/kg) or vehicle injection and after 6 h, hippocampi were collected for miRNA, mRNA and Western blot analyses. miRNA profiling microarrays showed a basal sex-biased miRNA profile in ADX rat hippocampi. Additionally, acute corticosterone administration triggered a sex-biased differential expression of miRNAs derived from genes located in several chromosomes and clusters on the X and 6 chromosomes. Putative promoter analysis unveiled that most corticosterone-responsive miRNA genes contained motifs for either direct or indirect glucocorticoid actions in both sexes. The evaluation of transcription factors indicated that almost 50 % of miRNA genes sensitive to corticosterone in both sexes was under glucocorticoid receptor regulation. Transcription factor-miRNA regulatory network analyses identified several transcription factors that regulate, activate or repress miRNA expression. Validated target mRNA analysis of corticosterone-responsive miRNAs showed a more complex miRNA-mRNA interaction network in males compared to females. Enrichment analysis revealed that several hippocampal-relevant pathways were affected in both sexes, such as neurogenesis and neurotrophin signaling. The evaluation of selected miRNA targets from these pathways displayed a strong sex difference in the hippocampus of ADX-vehicle rats. Corticosterone treatment did not change the levels of the miRNA targets and their corresponding tested proteins. Our data indicate that corticosterone exerts a sex-biased effect on hippocampal miRNA expression, which may engage in sculpting the basal sex differences observed at higher levels of hippocampal functioning.

Distinct cognitive effects and underlying transcriptome changes upon inhibition of individual miRNAs in hippocampal neurons

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNA) are small, non-coding RNAs mediating post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. miRNAs have recently been implicated in hippocampus-dependent functions such as learning and memory, although the roles of individual miRNAs in these processes remain largely unknown. Here, we achieved stable inhibition using AAV-delivered miRNA sponges of individual, highly expressed and brain-enriched miRNAs; miR-124, miR-9 and miR-34, in hippocampal neurons. Molecular and cognitive studies revealed a role for miR-124 in learning and memory. Inhibition of miR-124 resulted in an enhanced spatial learning and working memory capacity, potentially through altered levels of genes linked to synaptic plasticity and neuronal transmission. In contrast, inhibition of miR-9 or miR-34 led to a decreased capacity of spatial learning and of reference memory, respectively. On a molecular level, miR-9 inhibition resulted in altered expression of genes related to cell adhesion, endocytosis and cell death, while miR-34 inhibition caused transcriptome changes linked to neuroactive ligand-receptor transduction and cell communication. In summary, this study establishes distinct roles for individual miRNAs in hippocampal function. Three RNA samples containing bilateral entire hippocampi from three different mice, per group. Group 1 were injected with vector containing GFP and a miR34sp/miR9sp and the other group were subjected to a vector expressing GFP only.

Transcription profiling of human hippocampi from epilepsy patients with and without hippocampal sclerosis and autopsy controls

Project description:Genome wide gene expression was compared between nonHS, HS temporal lobe epilepsy patients (TLE) and autopsy control hippocampi in a 3-way analysis. In many TLE patients the hippocampus is subject to massive neuronal damage, gliosis and hippocampal sclerosis (HS), while in others there is no apparent hippocampal damage (nonHS). This three way analysis enabled us to differentiate between pathology and epilepsy related processes.

Identification of the miRNA targetome in hippocampal neurons using RIP-seq

Project description:We established a neuron-specific Argonaute2:GFP-RNA immunoprecipitation followed by high throughput sequencing (AGO2-RIP-seq) to analyse the regulatory role of miRNAs in mouse hippocampal neurons. Using this technique, we identified more than two thousand miRNA target genes in hippocampal neurons, regulating essential neuronal features such as axon guidance and transcription. Furthermore, we found that stable inhibition of the highly expressed miR-124 in hippocampal neurons led to significant changes in the AGO2 binding of target mRNAs, resulting in subsequent upregulation of numerous miRNA target genes. Our data suggest that target redundancies are common among microRNA families. Together, these findings greatly enhance our understanding of the mechanisms and dynamics through which miRNAs regulate their target genes in neurons. Analysis of the miRNA targetome in hippocampal neurons after inhibition of 2 different miRNAs. AAV5 injections into the hippocampus of adult C57BL/6 mice producing either of the following under a synapsin promoter: GFP only (Samples beginning with 'GFP124…' or 'GFP125…'), GFP-miR124sp (Samples beginning with 'miR124…'), GFP-miR125sp (Samples beginning with 'miR125…'), GFP-AGO2-miR292sponge (samples ending with '…292'), GFP-AGO2-miR124sponge (samples ending with '…124'), GFP-AGO2-miR125sponge (samples ending with '…125'). All other samples were sham-injected.

Integrated small RNA, mRNA and protein omics reveal a miRNA network orchestrating metabolic maturation of the developing human heart

Project description:As the fetal heart develops, cardiomyocyte proliferation potential decreases while fatty acid oxidative capacity increases, a highly regulated transition known as cardiac maturation. Small noncoding RNAs, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), contribute to the establishment and control of tissue-specific transcriptional programs. However, small RNA expression dynamics and genome wide miRNA regulatory networks controlling maturation of the human fetal heart remain poorly understood. Transcriptome profiling of small RNAs revealed the temporal expression patterns of miRNA, piRNA, circRNA, snoRNA, snRNA and tRNA in the developing human heart between 8 and 19 weeks of gestation. Our analysis revealed that miRNAs were the most dynamically expressed small RNA species throughout mid-gestation. Cross-referencing differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs predicted 6,200 mRNA targets, 2134 of which were upregulated and 4066 downregulated as gestation progresses. Moreover, we found that downregulated targets of upregulated miRNAs predominantly control cell cycle progression, while upregulated targets of downregulated miRNAs are linked to energy sensing and oxidative metabolism. Furthermore, integration of miRNA and mRNA profiles with proteomes and reporter metabolites revealed that proteins encoded in mRNA targets, and their associated metabolites, mediate fatty acid oxidation and are enriched as the heart develops.This study revealed the small RNAome of the maturing human fetal heart. Furthermore, our findings suggest that coordinated activation and repression of miRNA expression throughout mid-gestation is essential to establish a dynamic miRNA-mRNA-protein network that decreases cardiomyocyte proliferation potential while increasing the oxidative capacity of the maturing human fetal heart.

miRNA profiling array and analysis in mouse hippocampal neurons

Project description:We addressed the potential for global regulation of miRNA biogenesis by BDNF using miRNA arrays that selectively measure mature miRNA, as opposed to pre-miRNA. Hippocampal neurons were treated with BDNF for 30 min in the presence of Actinomycin-D to assess changes due to processing of existing pre-miRNAs rather than new pre-miRNA production. We used Applied Biosystems 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR system using Taqman Rodent MicroRNA Array A. Data is from three paired BDNF and Mock experiments (1,2,3). Each array (TaqMan) contained 375 rodent miRNA targets of which 195 were detectable in hippocampus in three independent paired experiments.

Gld2-catalyzed 3' monoadenylation of miRNAs in the hippocampus has no detectable effect on their stability or on animal behavior.

Project description:Gld2, a noncanonical cytoplasmic poly(A) polymerase, interacts with the RNA binding protein CPEB1 to mediate polyadenylation-induced translation in dendrites of cultured hippocampal neurons. Depletion of Gld2 from the hippocampus leads to a deficit in long-term potentiation evoked by theta burst stimulation. At least in mouse liver and human primary fibroblasts, Gld2 also 3' monoadenylates and thereby stabilizes specific miRNAs, which enhance mRNA translational silencing and eventual destruction. These results suggest that Gld2 would be likely to monoadenylate and stabilize miRNAs in the hippocampus, which would produce measurable changes in animal behavior. We now report that using Gld2 knockout mice, there are detectable alterations in specific miRNA monoadenylation in the hippocampus when compared to wild type, but that these modifications produce no detectable effect on miRNA stability. Moreover, we surprisingly find no overt change in animal behavior when comparing Gld2 knockout to wild-type mice. These data indicate that miRNA monoadenylation-mediated stability is cell type-specific and that monoadenylation has no measurable effect on higher cognitive function.

Expression profiling of small RNAs in developing wheat grains

Project description:We aimed to identify differentially expressed miRNAs during wheat grain development by using high-throughput sequencing approach. Four small RNA libraries were constructed from wheat grains collected at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days post anthesis (DPA). A total of 165 known miRNAs and 37 novel miRNAs were identified in four small RNA libraries. Moreover, a miRNA-like long hairpin locus was first identified to produce 21~22-nt phased siRNAs. A comparison of the miRNAomes revealed that 55 miRNA families were differentially expressed during the grain development. Examination of 4 different small RNA expression profilings in the 4 developmental stages of wheat grains.
