MicroRNA regulate immune pathways in T-cells in multiple sclerosis (MS) miRNA

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNA molecules that are involved in the control of gene expression. To investigate the role of microRNA in multiple sclerosis (MS), we performed global microarray analyses of mRNA and microRNA in peripheral blood T-cells from relapsing-remitting MS patients and controls. We identified 2,452 regulated genes and 21 regulated microRNA that differed between MS patients and controls. By Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, 20 of 21 regulated microRNA were shown to affect the expression of their target genes, many of which are involved in the immune system. LIGHT (TNFSF14) was a microRNA target gene significantly decreased in MS. The down-regulation of mir-494 and predicted mRNA-target LIGHT was verified by real-time PCR and we could demonstrate decreased serum levels of LIGHT in MS. Thus, regulated microRNA were significantly associated with both gene and protein expression of a molecule in immunological pathways. These findings indicate that microRNA may be important regulatory molecules in T-cells in MS.

MicroRNA regulate immunological pathways in T-cells in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) [miRNA]

Project description:MicroRNA are small non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression. To investigate the role of microRNA in ITP, we performed genome-wide expression analyses of mRNA and microRNA in T-cells from ITP patients and controls. We identified 1,915 regulated genes and 22 regulated microRNA that differed between ITP patients and controls. Seventeen of the 22 regulated microRNA were linked to changes in target gene expression; 57 of these target genes were associated with the immune system, e.g. T-cell activation and regulation of immunoglobulin production. CXCL13 and IL-21 were two microRNA target genes significantly increased in ITP. We could demonstrate increased plasma levels of CXCL13 and others have reported increased plasma levels of IL-21 in ITP. Thus, regulated microRNA were significantly associated with both gene and protein expression of molecules in immunological pathways. We suggest that microRNA may be important regulatory molecules involved in the loss of tolerance in ITP.

Developmental features of DNA methylation during activation of the embryonic zebrafish genome

Project description:Zygotic genome activation (ZGA) occurs at the mid-blastula transition (MBT) in zebrafish and is a period of chromatin remodeling. Genome-scale gametic demethylation and remethylation occurs after fertilization, during blastula stages, but how ZGA relates to promoter DNA methylation states is unknown. Using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation coupled to high-density microarray hybridization (MeDIP-ChIP), we characterize genome-wide promoter DNA methylation dynamics before, during and after ZGA onset, in relation changes in post-translational histone modification and gene expression (Series GSE22830). A Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test was applied with P <= 0.01 to identify methylation peaks. MeDIP-chip experiments were performed on24 hpf zebrafish embryos and sperm. Samples were lysed and proteins digested by proteinase k treatment. DNA was extracted with phenol-chloroform-isoamylalcohol and ethanol precipitation. The DNA was RNAse treated and sonicated to fragment lengths between 300-1000 bp. From each stage, duplicate immuneoprecipitations were performed using anti-5-methylcytosine antibody (10 ng/M-BM-5l; Mab-006-100; Diagenode) coupled to Dynabeads M-280 sheep anti-mouse IgG (Invitrogen). MeDIP and input DNA (150 ng each) were amplified (WGA-2; Sigma-Aldrich), cleaned up, eluted and processed for array hybridization. MeDIP and input DNA were labeled and co-hybridized onto the Nimbegen promoter arrays. The array covers 15 kb of upstream regulatory sequence and 5 kb downstream of the TSS of all zebrafish genes. A Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test was applied with P <= 0.01 to identify methylation peaks.
