Adipocyte Differentiation of Immortalized Human Bone Marrow-derived Stromal Cells is Modulated by microRNA-155, microRNA-221 and microRNA-222

ABSTRACT: Human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells are capable of limited self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation in vitro. Several studies have demonstrated that microRNAs, post-transcriptional modifiers of protein expression, play crucial roles in the regulation of these complex processes. To gain knowledge regarding the role of microRNAs in human adipocyte regulation, we examined the microRNA expression profile of the immortalized human bone marrow-derived stromal cell line hMSC-Tert20. We identified 12 microRNAs that were differentially expressed during adipogenesis, of which several have previously been shown to play important roles in adipocyte biology. The expression of miR-155, miR-221 and miR-222 decreased during the adipogenic program, suggesting that they act as negative regulators of differentiation. Interestingly, adenovirus-mediated expression of either miR-155 alone or miR-221 plus miR-222 significantly inhibited adipogenesis and repressed induction of the master regulators C/EBP α and PPARgamma Our study provides the first experimental evidence that miR-155, miR-221 and miR-222 function in human adipocyte differentiation.

Our study provides the first experimental evidence that miR-155, miR-221 and miR-222 function in human adipocyte differentiation. The telomerase immortalized human bone marrow-derived stromal cell line hMSC-Tert20 was differentiated towards adipocytes, and total RNA was harvested at various time points (0, 8, 24, 32, 48 and 72 hours, and 7, 14 and 21 days). All hybridizations, except for 0h, 8h and 32h, were performed twice. The expression of each miRNA at a given time point was calculated as a ratio relative to its level on day 0. No dye swaps.

miR-221/222 drive synovial fibroblast expansion and pathogenesis of TNF-mediated arthritis

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) constitute fine tuners of gene expression and are implicated in a variety of diseases spanning from inflammation to cancer. miRNA expression is deregulated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), however, their specific role in key arthritogenic cells such as the synovial fibroblast (SF) remains elusive. We have shown in the past that the expression of the miR-221/222 cluster is upregulated in RA SFs. Here, we demonstrate that miR-221/222 activation is downstream of major inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF and IL-1β, which promote miR-221/222 expression independently. miR-221/222 expression in SFs from the huTNFtg mouse model of arthritis correlates with disease progression. Targeted transgenic overexpression of miR-221/222 in SFs of the huTNFtg mouse model led to further expansion of synovial fibroblasts and disease exacerbation. miR-221/222 overexpression altered the transcriptional profile of SFs igniting pathways involved in cell cycle progression and ECM regulation. Validated targets of miR-221/222 included p27 and p57 cell cycle inhibitors, as well as Smarca1 (a chromatin remodeling component). In contrast, complete genetic ablation of miR-221/222 in arthritic mice led to decreased proliferation of fibroblasts, reduced synovial expansion and attenuated disease. scATAC-seq data analysis revealed increased miR-221/222 gene activity in the pathogenic and activated clusters of the intermediate and lining compartment. Taken together, our results establish an SF-specific pathogenic role of the miR-221/222 cluster in arthritis and suggest that its therapeutic targeting in specific subpopulations should inform the design of novel fibroblast-targeted therapies for human disease.

Differential expression of microRNAs in productively HIV-1 infected and bystander macrophages in culture.

Project description:Macrophages are heterogeneous immune cells with distinct origins, phenotypes, functions and tissue localization. Their susceptibility to HIV-1 is subject to variations from permissiveness to resistance, owing in part to regulatory microRNAs. Here, we used RNAseq to examine the expression of >400 microRNAs in productively infected and bystander cells of HIV-1-exposed macrophage cultures. Two micro-RNAs up regulated in bystander macrophages, miR-221 and miR-222, were identified as negative regulators of CD4 expression and CD4-mediated HIV-1 entry. Both microRNAs were enhanced by TNF-α, an inhibitor of CD4 expression. MiR-221/miR-222 inhibitors recovered HIV-1 entry in TNF-α-treated macrophages by enhancing CD4 expression, and increased HIV-1 replication and spread in macrophages by countering TNF-α-enhanced miR-221/miR-222 expression in bystander cells. In line with these findings, HIV-1-resistant intestinal myeloid cells express higher levels of miR-221 than peripheral blood monocytes. Thus, miR-221/miR-222 act as effectors of the antiviral host response activated during macrophage infection that restrict HIV-1 entry.

Identification of genes differentially expressed in lung cancer cells after the transfection of miR-221 or miR-222.

Project description:To evaluate involvement of miR-221 and miR-222 in lung cancer, we investigated the effects of miR-221 and miR-222 overexpression on six lung cancer cell lines as well as one immortalized normal human bronchial epithelial cell line. Two cell lines, H3255 and H1299 with no replicates were studied. Cells were transfected with miR-221, miR-222, or miR control. Microarray analysis was done to identify genes differentially expressed in lung cancer cells after the transfection of miR-221 or miR-222.

MicroRNA profiling of paediatric AML with FLT-ITD or MLL-rearrangements: expression signatures and in-vitro modulation of miR-221/222 with BRD4/HATs inhibitors.

Project description:Novel therapeutic strategies are needed for paediatric patients affected by Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML), especially for high-risk patients, characterized by high relapse incidence. MicroRNAs (miRs) have been extensively studied as biomarkers in cancer and haematological disorders, and their expression has been correlated to the presence of recurrent molecular abnormalities, expression of oncogenes, as well as to prognosis/clinical outcome. In this work, we identified different miRs expression signatures related both to presence of MLL and FLT3-ITD rearrangements and to paediatric AML patients clinical outcome. Notably, miR-221/222 resulted as a possible relapse-risk related miR. Thus, we investigated miR-221/222 expression modulation by using BRD4 and HAT inhibitors (JQ1 and curcumin), alone or in association. JQ1 modulates miR 221/222 expression in AML with a synergic effect when associated with curcumin. Moreover, we observed changes in the expression of CDKN1B, a known target of miR-221/222, increase in apoptosis and impaired colony forming capacity of AML cell lines and CD34+ AML primary cultures. Altogether, these findings suggest that several miRs expression signatures may be potentially useful as risk stratification indicators and relapse prediction markers of paediatric AML. Epigenetic drugs, deserving additional research for enhancing activity, bioavailability and safety, could represent a novel therapeutic strategy for high-risk paediatric AML patients

mRNA Breast Cancer Cell Line Profiles

Project description:mRNA breast cancer cell lines were profiled to study the function of hsa-mir-221 and hsa-mir-222. MCF7 cell lines were profiled after treatment with mir-221/222 mimics, and compared to profiles with transfection controls. Similarly, MDA-MB-231 cell lines were profiled after treatment with mir-221/222 inhibitors, and compared to profiles with transfection controls. Since ESR1 is a predicted target of mir-221/222 we also profiled MCF7 cell lines after disrupting ESR1 with an siRNA. Other breast cancer cell lines are provided because all cell lines were normalized together. Keywords: breast cancer, cell line, hsa-mir-221, hsa-mir-222, ESR1

MicroRNA profiling of human hepatocellular carcinoma samples shows miR-221 overexpression contributes to liver tumorigenesis

Project description:We profiled miRNA expression in tissue samples (104 HCC, 90 adjacent cirrhotic livers, 21 normal livers) as well as in 35 HCC cell lines. A set of 12 miRNAs (including miR-21, miR-221/222, miR-34a, miR-519a, miR-93,miR-96, and let-7c) was linked to disease progression from normal liver through cirrhosis to full-blown HCC. miR-221/222, the most upregulated miRNAs in tumor samples, are shown to target the CDK inhibitor p27 and to enhance cell growth in vitro. Conversely, these activities can be efficiently inhibited by an antagomiR specific for miR-221. In addition, we show, using a mouse model of liver cancer, that miR-221 overexpression stimulates growth of tumorigenic murine hepatic progenitor cells.
