Gene expression data from non-infected and M. hyorhinis-infected gastric cancer cell lines using Affymetrix genechip (HuGene-1_0-st)

ABSTRACT: Chronic infection of M. hyorhinis is postulated to be associated with cancer cell migration and invasion. To explore the mechanisms of M. hyorhinis-promoted invasiveness, we performed Affymetrix genechip (HuGene-1_0-st) analysis to examine differential gene expression profiles between non-infected and infected gastric cancer cells. We used microarrays to detail global programme of gene expression and identified distinct classes of upregulated genes after M. hyorhinis infection of gastric cancer cell lines.

Project description:This is one of expressional parts of the study. These data were correlated to epigenetic marks and CG density of genes in analyzed cells. The whole study has a following summary: To elucidate possible roles of DNA methylation and chromatin marks in transcription, we performed epigenetic profiling of chromosome 19 in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEC) and in the colorectal cancer cell line HCT116 as well as its counterpart with double knockout of DNMT1 and DNMT3B (HCT116-DKO). We found that H3K9me3 forms intragenic chromatin blocks along genes with low CpG density in the gene body. Analysis of H3K36me3 profiles indicated that this mark associates either with active genes with low CpG density and H3K9me3 in the gene body or with active genes with high CpG density and DNA hypermethylation in the gene body. In HCT116 cells with double knockout of DNMT1 and DNMT3B, transcription of genes with low CpG density in the gene body was highly elevated and associated with promoter DNA demethylation and rearrangement of H3K9me3 and H3K36me3 occupation. Our finding suggests that similar to DNA methylation, H3K9me3 may play a role in intragenic gene regulation. Further, we observed that a combination of low CpG density in gene bodies together with H3K9me3 and H3K36me3 marking is a specific epigenetic feature of zinc finger (ZNF) genes, which comprise 90% of all genes carrying both histone marks on chromosome 19. For high CpG density genes, transcription and H3K36me3 occupancy were not changed in condition of partial or intensive loss of DNA methylation in gene bodies in the HCT116-DKO cell line. siRNA experiments with SETD2 knockdown in both HBEC and HCT116-DKO cell lines failed to reduce DNA methylation in gene bodies under conditions of H3K36me3 depletion. Our study suggests that the H3K36me3 and DNA methylation marks in gene bodies are established independently from each other and points to similar functional roles of intragenic DNA methylation and intragenic H3K9me3 for CpG-rich and CpG-poor genes, respectively.

Project description:In this study we performed a systematic evaluation of functional miRNA-mRNA interactions associated with the aggressiveness of breast cancer cells using a combination of integrated miRNA and mRNA expression profiling, bioinformatics prediction, and functional assays. Analysis of the miRNA expression identified 11 miRNAs that were differentially expressed, including 7 down-regulated (miR-200c, miR-205, miR-203, miR-141, miR-34a, miR-183, and miR-375) and 4 up-regulated miRNAs (miR-146a, miR-138, miR-125b1 and miR-100), in aggressive cell lines when compared to normal and less aggressive cell lines. Transient overexpression of miR-200c, miR-205, and miR-375 in MDA-MB-231 cells led to the inhibition of cell migration and invasion. The integrated analysis of miRNA and mRNA expression identified 35 known and novel target genes of miR-200c, miR-205, and mir-375, including CFL2, LAMC1, TIMP2, ZEB1, CDH11, PRKCA, PTPRJ, PTPRM, LDHB, and SEC23A. Surprisingly, the majority of these genes (27 genes) were target genes of miR-200c, suggesting that it plays a more important role in regulating the aggressiveness of breast cancer cells. We characterized one of the target genes of miR-200c, CFL2, and demonstrated that CFL2 is overexpressed in aggressive breast cancer cell lines and can be significantly down-regulated by exogenous miR-200c. Tissue microarray analysis further revealed that CFL2 expression in primary breast cancer tissue correlated with tumor grade. To our knowledge, this study is the first systematic screening of functional miRNA target genes in aggressive breast cancer cells. The results obtained from this study may improve our understanding of the role of these candidate miRNAs and their target genes in relation to breast cancer aggressiveness and ultimately lead to the identification of novel biomarkers associated with prognosis. Affymetrix Gene 1.0 ST arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on RNA extracted from breast cancer cell lines which are treated with miRNA mimic
