Project description:Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) is a member of Coronaviridae family. Our previous research showed that TGEV infection could induce mitochondrial dysfunction and up-regulat miR-222 level. Therefore, we presumed that miR-222 might be implicated in regulating mitochondrial dysfunction induced by TGEV infection. To verify the hypothesis, the effect of miR-222 on mitochondrial dysfunction was detected and showed that miR-222 attenuated TGEV-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. To investigate the underlying molecular mechanism of miR-222 in TGEV-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, a quantitative proteomic analysis of PK-15 cells that were transfected with miR-222 mimics and infected with TGEV was performed. In total, 4151 proteins were quantified and 100 differentially expressed proteins were obtained (57 up-regulated, 43 down-regulated), among which thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) and cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) were down-regulated. THBS1 was identified as the target of miR-222. Knockdown of THBS1 and CD47 increased mitochondrial Ca2+ level and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) level. Together, our data establish a significant role of miR-222 in regulating mitochondrial dysfunction in response to TGEV infection.

Project description:Defects in stress responses are important contributors in many chronic conditions including cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity-driven pathologies like non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Specifically, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is linked with these pathologies and control of ER stress can ameliorate tissue damage. MicroRNAs have a critical role in regulating diverse stress responses including ER stress. Here we show that miR-494-3p plays a functional role during ER stress. ER stress inducers (tunicamycin and thapsigargin) robustly increase the expression of miR-494 in vitro in an ATF6 dependent manner. Surprisingly, miR-494 pretreatment dampens the induction and magnitude of ER stress in response to tunicamycin in endothelial cells. Conversely, inhibition of miR-494 increases ER stress de novo and amplifies the effects of ER stress inducers. Using Mass Spectrometry (TMT-MS) we identified many proteins that are downregulated by both tunicamycin and miR-494 in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Among these, we found 6 transcripts which harbor a putative miR-494 binding site. Our data indicates that ER stress driven miR-494 may act in a feedback inhibitory loop to dampen downstream ER stress signaling. We propose that RNA-based approaches targeting miR-494 or its targets may be attractive candidates for inhibiting ER stress dependent pathologies in human disease.

Project description:Next to genetic alterations, it is being recognized that the cellular environment also acts as a major determinant in onset and progression of disease. In cases where different cell types contribute to the final disease outcome, this imposes environmental challenges as different cell types likely differ in their extracellular dependencies. A number of skin diseases, including psoriasis is characterized by a combination of keratinocyte hyperproliferation and immune cell activation. Activation of immune cells involves increased glucose consumption thereby intrinsicly limiting glucose availability for other cell types. Thus, these type of skin diseases require metabolic adaptations that enable coexistence between hyperproliferative keratinocytes and activated immune cells in a nutrient-limited environment. Hsa-microRNA-31-5p (miR-31) is highly expressed in keratinocytes within the psoriatic skin. Here we show that miR-31 expression in keratinocytes is induced by limited glucose availability and enables increased survival of keratinocytes under limiting glucose conditions, by increasing glutamine metabolism. In addition, miR-31 induced glutamine metabolism results in secretion of specific metabolites (aspartate and glutamate) but also secretion of immuno-modulatory factors. We show that this miR-31-induced secretory phenotype is sufficient to induce Th17 cell differentiation, a hallmark of psoriasis. Inhibition of glutaminase (GLS) using CB-839 impedes miR31-induced metabolic rewiring and secretion of immuno-modulatory factors. Concordantly, pharmacological targeting of GLS alleviated psoriasis pathology in a mouse model of psoriasis. Together our data illustrate an emerging concept of metabolic interaction across cell compartments that characterizes disease development, which can be employed to design effective treatment options for disease, as shown here for psoriasis.

Project description:The identification of miRNAs’ targets and associated regulatory networks might allow the definition of new strategies using drugs whose association might mimic a given miRNA’s effects. Based on this assumption our group devised a multi-omics approach in an attempt to precisely characterize miRNAs’ effects. We combined the analysis of miR-491-5p direct targets, and effects at the transcriptomic and proteomic levels. We thus constructed an interaction network which enlightened highly connected nodes, being either direct or indirect targets of miR-491-5p effects: the already known EGFR and BCL2L1, but also EP300, CTNNB1 and several small-GTPases. By using different combinations of specific inhibitors of these nodes, we could greatly enhance their respective cytotoxicity and mimic miR-491-5p-induced phenotype. Our methodology thus constitutes an interesting strategy to comprehensively study the effects of a given miRNA. Also, we identified targets for which pharmacological inhibitors are already available for a clinical use, or in clinical trial phases. This study might thus enable innovative therapeutic options for ovarian cancer, which remains the first cause of death from gynecological malignancies in developed countries.

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCC) are characterized by arm-wide chromosomal alterations. Loss at 14q is associated with disease aggressiveness in ccRCC, which responds poorly to chemotherapeutics. The 14q locus contains one of the largest miRNA clusters in the human genome; however, little is known about the contribution of these miRNAs to ccRCC pathogenesis. In this regard, we investigated the expression pattern of selected miRNAs at the 14q32 locus in TCGA kidney tumors and in ccRCC cell lines. We validated that the miRNA cluster is downregulated in ccRCC (and cell lines) as well as in papillary kidney tumors relative to normal kidney tissues and primary renal proximal tubule epithelial (RPTEC) cells. We demonstrated that agents modulating expression of DNMT1 (e.g., 5-Aza-deoxycytidine) could modulate miRNA expression in ccRCC cell lines. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, a Lysophospholipid mediator elevated in ccRCC) not only increased labile iron content but also modulated expression of 14q32 miRNAs. Through an overexpression approach targeting a subset of 14q32 miRNAs (specifically at subcluster A: miR-431, miR-432, miR-127, and miR-433) in 769-P cells, we uncovered changes in cellular viability and claudin-1, a tight junction marker. A global proteomic approach was implemented using these miRNA overexpressing cell lines which uncovered ATXN2 as a highly downregulated target, which has a role in chronic kidney disease pathogenesis. Collectively, these findings support a contribution of miRNAs at 14q32 in ccRCC pathogenesis.

Project description:While microRNAs (miRs) have been extensively studied in the context of malignancy and tumor progression, their functions in regulating T cell activation are less clear. We found reduced levels of miR-15a/16 at 3-18 h post-T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation, suggesting a role in shaping T cell activation. An inducible miR15a/16 transgenic mouse model was developed to determine how elevating miR-15a/16 levels during early stages of activation would affect T cell proliferation and to identify TCR signaling pathways regulated by this miR pair. Doxycyclin (DOX) induced expression of miR-15a/16 from 0-18 h post-TCR stimulation decreased ex vivo proliferation as well as in vivo antigen-specific proliferation. Bioinformatic and proteomic approaches were combined to identify MEK1 as a target of miR-15a/16. MEK1 targeting by miR-15a/16 was confirmed using miR mimics that decreased MEK1 containing the 3’-UTR target nucleotide sequence (UGCUGCUA) but did not decrease MEK1 containing a mutated control sequence (AAAAAAAA). Phosphorylation of downstream signaling molecules ERK1/2 and Elk1 were decreased with DOX-induced miR-15a/16 expression. In addition to MEK1, ERK1 was subsequently found to be targeted by miR-15a/16, with DOX induced miR-15a/16 reducing total ERK1 levels in T cells. These findings show that TCR stimulation reduces miR-15a/16 levels at early stages of T cell activation to facilitate increased MEK1 and ERK1, and this promotes sustained MEK1-ERK1/2-Elk1 signaling required for optimal proliferation.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an evolutionarily conserved large class of small non-coding RNAs that mediate post-transcriptional silencing of genes and influence a broad spectrum of biological processes ranging from embryonic development to organismal death. Our previous study identified the miR-29 family, three paralogous species of miR-29a/b/c, as the most predominantly expressed small RNA in aged mouse brain compared to neonate one. The mouse brain miR-29 is highly astrocytic. Its expression is quiescent during early brain development, and thereafter steadily increases to a saturating level around the end of the reproductive phase. To explore the functional relevance of miR-29 expression to the neural physiology of mouse brain from the mechanistic perspective of mammalian species-specific lifespan, we here designed a gain-of-function approach through forced expression of miR-29 in astrocyte from mouse fetus and surveyed the resulting alteration in the transcriptional and translational levels. DNA microarray analyses retrieved a total of 5,589 genes showing a temporal significant expression changes in the miR-29-transfected fetal astrocytes, and classified them into two gene groups positively or negatively regulated by miR-29. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based quantification of translational products of miR-29-responsive genes identified 18 species of miR-29 target candidates. We performed functional enrichment analyses using bioinformatics resources to elucidate the biological roles of the gene sets thus identified, and obtained their expression trend that favor the processes for facilitating cell differentiation while supporting normal cell proliferation /survival, which was different from the functional signatures of miR-29 at adult stages, implying the bifunctional property of miR-29 depending on the developmental context. Our present results strongly suggest that miR-29 serves as the central coordinator to shift the global gene expression in the developing mouse brain toward matured phenotype, and through which ensure the programmed transition to the post-developmental stage that is inherently set for the mouse lifespan. DNA microarray experiment: Sample labeling, hybridization and washing were performed following the standard protocol detailed in the Agilent One-Color Microarray-Based Gene Expression Analysis ver.5.7. Briefly, a One-color Spike-Mix was diluted 1000-fold and a 5-μl aliquot of the diluted mix were added to every 0.5 μg of total RNA samples (three each of extraction replicates of miR-29-treated sample and control sample named elsewhere) prior to labeling reaction. The labeling reaction was carried out separately for the RNA samples using a Quick Amp Labeling Kit one-color, in the presence of cyanine 3-CTP. The dye-labeled target (1.6 μg as cRNA) was fragmented and hybridized on an Agilent Whole Mouse Genome 4X44K microarray at 65°C for 17 hr with a Gene Expression Hybridization Kit. The hybridized slide was washed in Gene Expression Wash Buffer 1 at room temperature for 1 min, which was followed by a wash for 1 min in Gene Expression Wash Buffer 2. The processed microarrays were scanned using an Agilent DNA Microarray Scanner. Data extraction from raw image files was done with Agilent Feature Extraction software ver.10.7.

Project description:Overexpression of miR-183-5p|+2, but not of the other two isomiRs |0 and |+1, was observed to reduce cell cycle and cell proliferation in different triple-negative breast cancer cell lines. Therefore, we hypothesized that the |+2 isoform has targets distinct from the other two isoforms. To test this hypothesis, we overexpressed separately the three different isoforms or negative controls (siAllstar or mimic-Cltr) and performed Mass Spectrometry to identify differentially regulated proteins. Interestingly, a gene set enrichment analysis of the changes in protein expression revealed significant downregulation of transcriptional targets of E2F specifically in cells transfected with the |+2 isoform prompting us to validate the predicted isomiR specific target E2F1. Subsequently, we could show that direct targeting of E2F1 by miR-183-5p|+2 is responsible for the impact of the isomiR on cell cycle and proliferation.
