Project description:Background Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that are involved in post transcriptional gene expression regulation. miRNAS can be found in various bodily fluids including plasma. Recently circulating plasma miRNAs have been studied as biomarkers in various tumors including pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs). However the identification of PitNET derived miRNAs in plasma remains a challenging task due to tumor volume, mass and miRNA dilution within blood. To our knowledge this is the first study that has used the NGS approach to characterize circulating miRNAs in plasma acquired from Bilateral petrosal sinus sampling (BIPSS) - a gold standard in diagnosis of ACTH secreting PitNETs. Results We sequenced plasma samples that were acquired from sinistral and dextral sides of sinus petrosus inferior and complementary plasma from peripheral venous blood (PVB). BIPSS samples were collected in three separate time periods: before administration of corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH), 5 minutes after stimulation and 15 minutes after stimulation with CRH. The highest amount of differentially expressed miRNAs was observed 5 minutes after CRH stimulation (20 upregulated, 14 downregulated). During the BIPSS procedure the highest amount of ACTH was released in the sinistral side during the 5th minute after the stimulation by CRH. In the plasma of sinistral side at the 5th minute we identified two miRNAs: hsa-miR-7-5p and hsa-miR-375-3p that were highly upregulated compared to other BIPSS samples and samples from PVB. Using clustering analysis we were able to distinguish plasma samples acquired from BIPSS from PVB plasma, indicating that the miRNA fraction characterized in this study has potentially PitNET borne origin. Conclusions In this study we provided the first insight into the landscape of circulating miRNAs in close proximity to the ACTH secreting PitNET. The data indicates that ACTH secreting PitNET releases two circulating miRNAs upon stimulation with CRH (hsa-mir-7-5p, hsa-mir-375-3p) alongside with ACTH implying the further studies of these miRNA as diagnostic markers.

Project description:As the Crh-system and the HPA-axis are known to be crucially involved in the onset, development and maintainance of psychiatric disorders like anxiety and depression and regulate the behavioural and endocrine stress responses the further analysis of Crhr1-dependent signaling cascades is essential to understand the molecular mechanisms behind these psychiatric diseases. In this project, new candidate genes involved in Crhr1-dependent signaling cascades were dissected in the cell line model of AtT-20 cells by transcriptional profiling of mouse pituitary corticotroph cells comparing control untreated AtT-20 cells with AtT-20 cells treated with 100 nM Crh at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours. Keywords: time course, treatment response

Project description:The aim of the study was to compare genes’ expression profiles of functioning and silent corticotroph adenomas to investigate possible biological mechanism of different hormone secretion . Since USP8 is the best know driver gene mutated in large proportion of ACTH-omas we intended to verify whether the mutation occurs in SCAs and how it affects transcriptomic profile.

Project description:Transcription factor Creb3l1 is a non-classical ER stress molecule that is emerging as an important component for cellular homeostasis, particularly within cell-types with high peptide secretory capabilities. We have previously shown that Creb3l1 serves an important role in body fluid homeostasis through its transcriptional control of the gene coding for antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin in the neuropeptide rich magnocellular neurons of the supraoptic nucleus. To identify other genes regulated by transcription factor Creb3l1 in secretory cells, we performed RNA-sequencing of Creb3l1 knockdown anterior pituitary mouse corticotroph cell line AtT20.

Project description:Background: USP8 mutations are the most common driver changes in corticotroph pituitary tumors. They have direct effect on cells’ proteome through disturbance of ubiquitination process and also influence gene expression. The aim of this study was to compare microRNA profiles in USP8- mutated and wild-type tumors and determine the probable role of differential microRNA expression by integrative microRNA and mRNA analysis. Methods: Patients with Cushing’s disease (n = 28) and silent corticotroph tumors (n = 20) were included. USP8 mutations were identified with Sanger sequencing. MicroRNA and gene expression was determined with next-generation sequencing. Results: USP8-mutated patients with Cushing’s disease showed higher rate of clinical remission and trend towards lower tumor volume than wild-type patients. Comparison of microRNA profiles of USP8-mutated and wild-type tumors revealed 68 differentially expressed microRNAs. Their target genes were determined by in silico prediction and microRNA/mRNA correlation analysis. GeneSet Enrichment analysis of putative targets showed that the most significantly overrepresented genes are involved in protein ubiquitination-related processes. Only few microRNAs influence the expression of genes differentially expressed between USP8-mutated and wild-type tumors. Conclusions: Differences in microRNA expression in corticotropinomas stratified according to USP8 status reflect disturbed ubiquitination processes, but do not correspond to differences in gene expression between these tumors.
