Oxidative stress activation of miR-125b is part of the molecular switch for Hailey-Hailey disease manifestation.

Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by suprabasal cutaneous cell separation (acantholysis) leading to the development of erosive and oozing skin lesion. Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous post-transcriptional modulators of gene expression with critical functions in health and disease. Here, we evaluated whether the expression of specific miRNAs may play a role in the pathogenesis of HHD. Here, we report that miRNAs are expressed in a non-random manner in Hailey-Hailey patients. miR-125b appeared a promising candidate for playing a role in HHD manifestation. Both Notch1 and p63 are part of a regulatory signalling whose function is essential for the control of keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation and of note, the expression of both Notch1 and p63 is downregulated in HHD-derived keratinocytes. We found that both Notch1 and p63 expression is strongly suppressed by miR-125b expression. Additionally, we found that miR-125b expression is increased by an oxidative stress-dependent mechanism. Our data suggest that oxidative stress-mediated induction of miR-125b plays a specific role in the pathogenesis of HHD by regulating the expression of factors playing an important role in keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation.

Genetic interplay between HLA-C and MIR148A in HIV control and Crohn disease.

Variation in the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of the HLA-C locus determines binding of the microRNA Hsa-miR-148a, resulting in lower cell surface expression of alleles that bind miR-148a relative to those alleles that escape its binding. The HLA-C 3'UTR variant was shown to associate with HIV control, but like the vast majority of disease associations in a region dense with causal candidates, a direct effect of HLA-C expression level on HIV control was not proven. We demonstrate that a MIR148A insertion/deletion polymorphism associates with its own expression levels, affecting the extent to which HLA-C is down-regulated, the level of HIV control, and the risk of Crohn disease only among those carrying an intact miR-148a binding site in the HLA-C 3'UTR. These data illustrate a direct effect of HLA-C expression level on HIV control that cannot be attributed to other HLA loci in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-C and highlight the rich complexity of genetic interactions in human disease.

Defining the RNA polymerase III transcriptome: Genome-wide localization of the RNA polymerase III transcription machinery in human cells.

Our view of the RNA polymerase III (Pol III) transcription machinery in mammalian cells arises mostly from studies of the RN5S (5S) gene, the Ad2 VAI gene, and the RNU6 (U6) gene, as paradigms for genes with type 1, 2, and 3 promoters. Recruitment of Pol III onto these genes requires prior binding of well-characterized transcription factors. Technical limitations in dealing with repeated genomic units, typically found at mammalian Pol III genes, have so far hampered genome-wide studies of the Pol III transcription machinery and transcriptome. We have localized, genome-wide, Pol III and some of its transcription factors. Our results reveal broad usage of the known Pol III transcription machinery and define a minimal Pol III transcriptome in dividing IMR90hTert fibroblasts. This transcriptome consists of some 500 actively transcribed genes including a few dozen candidate novel genes, of which we confirmed nine as Pol III transcription units by additional methods. It does not contain any of the microRNA genes previously described as transcribed by Pol III, but reveals two other microRNA genes, MIR886 (hsa-mir-886) and MIR1975 (RNY5, hY5, hsa-mir-1975), which are genuine Pol III transcription units.

Micrornas involvement in cortical plasticity in adult mouse barrel cortex

In rodents, sensory experience alters the whisker representation in layer IV of the barrel cortex (Woolsey and Van der Loos, 1970). Excitatory and inhibitory interneurons, together with the astrocytic network, modify the functional representation in an integrated manner. Our group showed that continuous whisker stimulation induces structural and functional changes in the corresponding barrel. These modifications include the depression of neuronal responses and an insertion of new inhibitory synapses on dendritic spines (Knott et al., 2002; Genoud et al., 2006; Quairiaux et al., 2007). This form of cortical plasticity is controlled by several gene regulatory mechanisms including the activation of genetic programs controlling the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs). The transitory and localized expression of miRNAs in dendrites and their capacity to respond in an activity-dependent manner make them ideal candidates for the fine tuning of gene expression associated with neural plasticity. In a previous study of our group (Johnston- Wenger, 2010) using microarray analysis on laser-dissected barrels in order to compare the gene expression levels in stimulated and non-stimulated barrels after whisker stimulation, 261 genes were found significantly regulated, among these genes there were two miRNAs (miR- 132 and miR-137). In this study I tested the initial observation on the up-regulation of miR-132 and miR-137 after whisker stimulation and the possible involvement of two other miRNAs (miR-138 and miR-125b) that are known play a role in other form of synaptic plasticity. I used in situ hybridization (ISH) after unilateral stimulation of three whiskers (Cl-3) in the adult mouse. We found that sensory stimulation increases the expression, of miR-132 after 3hours of stimulation (p<0.01) and miR-137 (pO.Ol; 24 hrs of stim.), whereas it reduces the level of miR-125b (pO.Ol; 9 hrs of stim.). No significant difference was detected for miR-138. We further determined a correlation between the level of expression of the four selected miRNAs in the cortical barrels (measured by ISH) and in blood plasma (measured by qPCR). In addition to this quantitative comparison, we combined miRNAs ISH and immunolabeling for various neuronal markers that were chosen for the localization in both excitatory and inhibitory circuits as well as in astrocytes. Analysis of three-dimensional confocal acquisitions showed that stimulation alters significantly the degree of co-localization in the stimulated barrel of miR-132 with GAD65/67 and VGLUT2; miR-125b with GAD65/67 and parvalbumin; miR-138 with parvalbumin, VGLUT1 and PSD95; and miR-137 with VGLUT1 and astrocytic markers (GS; GFAP and SlOOß). To conclude, using increased neuronal activity in the whisker-to-barrel pathway; our results suggest that miRNAs can be regulated in an activity-dependent manner and they may regulate local mRNA translation to shape neuronal responses. These findings motivate further investigation of the different modes in which miRNAs may regulate cortical plasticity. -- Chez les rongeurs, l'expérience sensorielle modifie la représentation des vibrisses au niveau du cortex somatosensoriel primaire (Woolsey and Van der Loos, 1970). Les interneurones excitateurs et inhibiteurs, en collaboration avec le réseau astrocytaire, modifient la représentation fonctionnelle d'une manière intégrée. Notre groupe a montré que la stimulation continue des vibrisses induit des changements structuraux et fonctionnels dans le tonneau correspondant. Ces modifications incluent la dépression des réponses neuronales et une insertion de nouvelles synapses inhibitrices sur les épines dendritiques (Knott et al., 2002 ; Genoud et al., 2006 ; Quairiaux et al., 2007). Cette forme de plasticité corticale est contrôlée par plusieurs mécanismes de régulation génique dont l'activation des programmes géniques contrôlant l'expression des microARNs (miARNs). Par leur expression transitoire et localisée dans les dendrites et leur capacité à réagir d'une manière dépendante de l'activité, les miARNs sont des candidats idéaux pour le réglage fin de l'expression des gènes associée à la plasticité neuronale. Afin de comparer le niveau d'expression des gènes dans les tonneaux stimulés et non-stimulés après stimulation des vibrisses, une étude antérieure dans notre groupe (Johnston-Wenger, 2010), utilisant l'analyse par microarray sur des tonneaux disséqués par laser, a montré l'altération significative de 261 gènes. Parmi ces gènes, il y avait deux miARNs (miR-132 et miR-137). Dans la présente étude, j'ai testé l'observation initiale sur la régulation de miR-132 et miR-137 après stimulation des vibrisses et la possible implication de deux autres miARNs (miR-138 et miR-125b) connus avoir jouer un rôle important dans d'autres formes de plasticité synaptique. J'ai utilisé l'hybridation in situ (ISH) après stimulation unilatérale de trois vibrisses (Cl-3) chez la souris adulte. J'ai trouvé que la stimulation sensorielle augmente l'expression, de miR-132 après 3 heures de stimulation (p < 0.01) et miR-137 (p < 0.01 ; 24 hrs de stim.), alors qu'elle réduit le niveau de miR-125b (p < 0.01; 9 hrs de stim.). Aucune différence significative n'a été détectée pour miR-138. J'ai aussi déterminé une corrélation entre le niveau d'expression des quatre miARNs sélectionnés dans les tonneaux (mesurés par ISH) et dans le plasma sanguin (mesuré par qPCR). En plus de cette comparaison quantitative, j'ai combiné le miR-ISH et l'immunomarquage pour divers marqueurs neuronaux qui ont été choisis pour étudier la localisation dans les circuits excitateurs et inhibiteurs, ainsi que dans les astrocytes. Les acquisitions tridimensionnelles montrent que la stimulation modifie considérablement le degré de co-localisation dans le tonneau stimulé de miR-132 avec GAD65/67 et VGLUT2; miR-125b avec GAD65/67 et parvalbumine; miR-138 avec parvalbumine, VGLUT1 et PSD95; et miR-137 avec VGLUT1 et les marqueurs astrocytaires (GS ; GFAP et SlOOß). En conclusion, à l'aide de l'activité neuronale accrue dans la voie de vibrisses-au-baril; les résultats suggèrent que les miARNs peuvent être régulé d'une manière dépendante de l'activité et peuvent résulter la stabilité des ARNm et la traduction pour façonner les réponses neuronales ultérieures. Ces résultats incitent d'investiguer davantage les voies importantes par lesquels les miARNs peuvent réguler la plasticité corticale.

Long-term miR-669a therapy alleviates chronic dilated cardiomyopathy in dystrophic mice.

BACKGROUND: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a leading cause of chronic morbidity and mortality in muscular dystrophy (MD) patients. Current pharmacological treatments are not yet able to counteract chronic myocardial wastage, thus novel therapies are being intensely explored. MicroRNAs have been implicated as fine regulators of cardiomyopathic progression. Previously, miR-669a downregulation has been linked to the severe DCM progression displayed by Sgcb-null dystrophic mice. However, the impact of long-term overexpression of miR-669a on muscle structure and functionality of the dystrophic heart is yet unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: Here, we demonstrate that intraventricular delivery of adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors induces long-term (18 months) miR-669a overexpression and improves survival of Sgcb-null mice. Treated hearts display significant decrease in hypertrophic remodeling, fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Moreover, miR-669a treatment increases sarcomere organization, reduces ventricular atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) levels, and ameliorates gene/miRNA profile of DCM markers. Furthermore, long-term miR-669a overexpression significantly reduces adverse remodeling and enhances systolic fractional shortening of the left ventricle in treated dystrophic mice, without significant detrimental consequences on skeletal muscle wastage. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings provide the first evidence of long-term beneficial impact of AAV-mediated miRNA therapy in a transgenic model of severe, chronic MD-associated DCM.

Genomic, Epigenomic and Transcriptomic Molecular Characterization of Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma Reveals Recurrent Abnormalities in miR-182

Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a low grade B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The molecular pathology of this entity remains poorly understood. To characterise this lymphoma at the molecular level, we performed an integrated analysis of 1) genome wide genetic copy number alterations 2) gene expression profiles and 3) epigenetic DNA methylation profiles.We have previously shown that SMZL is characterised by recurrent alterations of chromosomes 7q, 6q, 3q, 9q and 18; however, gene resolution oligonucleotide array comparative genomic hybridisation did not reveal evidence of cryptic amplification or deletion in these regions. The most frequently lost 7q32 region contains a cluster of miRNAs. qRT-PCR revealed that three of these (miR-182/96/183) show underexpression in SMZL, and miR-182 is somatically mutated in >20% of cases of SMZL, as well as in >20% of cases of follicular lymphoma, and between 5-15% of cases of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, MALT-lymphoma and hairy cell leukaemia. We conclude that miR-182 is a strong candidate novel tumour suppressor miRNA in lymphoma.The overall gene expression signature of SMZL was found to be strongly distinct fromthose of other lymphomas. Functional analysis of gene expression data revealed SMZL to be characterised by abnormalities in B-cell receptor signalling (especially through the CD19/21-PI3K/AKT pathway) and apoptotic pathways. In addition, genes involved in the response to viral infection appeared upregulated. SMZL shows a unique epigenetic profile, but analysis of differentially methylated genes showed few with methylation related transcriptional deregulation, suggesting that DNA methylation abnormalities are not a critical component of the SMZL malignant phenotype.

Regulation of monocyte functional heterogeneity by miR-146a and Relb.

Monocytes serve as a central defense system against infection and injury but can also promote pathological inflammatory responses. Considering the evidence that monocytes exist in at least two subsets committed to divergent functions, we investigated whether distinct factors regulate the balance between monocyte subset responses in vivo. We identified a microRNA (miRNA), miR-146a, which is differentially regulated both in mouse (Ly-6C(hi)/Ly-6C(lo)) and human (CD14(hi)/CD14(lo)CD16(+)) monocyte subsets. The single miRNA controlled the amplitude of the Ly-6C(hi) monocyte response during inflammatory challenge whereas it did not affect Ly-6C(lo) cells. miR-146a-mediated regulation was cell-intrinsic and depended on Relb, a member of the noncanonical NF-κB/Rel family, which we identified as a direct miR-146a target. These observations not only provide mechanistic insights into the molecular events that regulate responses mediated by committed monocyte precursor populations but also identify targets for manipulating Ly-6C(hi) monocyte responses while sparing Ly-6Clo monocyte activity.

A miR-34a-SIRT6 axis in the squamous cell differentiation network.

Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are highly heterogeneous tumours, resulting from deranged expression of genes involved in squamous cell differentiation. Here we report that microRNA-34a (miR-34a) functions as a novel node in the squamous cell differentiation network, with SIRT6 as a critical target. miR-34a expression increases with keratinocyte differentiation, while it is suppressed in skin and oral SCCs, SCC cell lines, and aberrantly differentiating primary human keratinocytes (HKCs). Expression of this miRNA is restored in SCC cells, in parallel with differentiation, by reversion of genomic DNA methylation or wild-type p53 expression. In normal HKCs, the pro-differentiation effects of increased p53 activity or UVB exposure are miR-34a-dependent, and increased miR-34a levels are sufficient to induce differentiation of these cells both in vitro and in vivo. SIRT6, a sirtuin family member not previously connected with miR-34a function, is a direct target of this miRNA in HKCs, and SIRT6 down-modulation is sufficient to reproduce the miR-34a pro-differentiation effects. The findings are of likely biological significance, as SIRT6 is oppositely expressed to miR-34a in normal keratinocytes and keratinocyte-derived tumours.

Post-axial polydactyly type A2, overgrowth and autistic traits associated with a chromosome 13q31.3 microduplication encompassing miR-17-92 and GPC5.

Genomic rearrangements at chromosome 13q31.3q32.1 have been associated with digital anomalies, dysmorphic features, and variable degree of mental disability. Microdeletions leading to haploinsufficiency of miR17∼92, a cluster of micro RNA genes closely linked to GPC5 in both mouse and human genomes, has recently been associated with digital anomalies in the Feingold like syndrome. Here, we report on a boy with familial dominant post-axial polydactyly (PAP) type A, overgrowth, significant facial dysmorphisms and autistic traits who carries the smallest germline microduplication known so far in that region. The microduplication encompasses the whole miR17∼92 cluster and the first 5 exons of GPC5. This report supports the newly recognized role of miR17∼92 gene dosage in digital developmental anomalies, and suggests a possible role of GPC5 in growth regulation and in cognitive development.

'sît ich die nôt an mir weiz'. Zur narrativen Konfiguration des lyrischen 'paradoxe amoureux' im "Mauritius von Craûn"

Der am ehesten um 1200 entstandene ,Mauritius von Craûn' gilt als Forschungsproblem. Als gemeinsamen Nenner der kontroversen Zugänge zum Text konstatiert der Aufsatz das Bemühen um eine Verbindung der rätselhaften Erzählung mit einem durch die historische Distanz verlorenen oder verwischten Sinnzusammenhang über einen textexternen missing link. Demgegenüber wird ein themen- und handlungsanalytischer Zugriff vorgeschlagen: Thema der Erzählung ist die im 12. Jahrhundert vorrangig in der Lyrik entwickelte strukturelle Figur der Hohen Minne, die ihre Ästhetik aus einem Paradox gewinnt: Die Möglichkeitsbedingung dieser in beständigem Werben bestehenden Liebe, die niemals erfüllt werden darf, ist ihre Unmöglichkeit. Seine ideelle Füllung erhält das Modell durch eine darin vernetzte Ordnung höfischer Werte wie stæte, triuwe, milte oder mâze. Diese Werte, so die These, ,,erzählt" die Handlung des ,Mauritius': Hier wird nicht nur der Versuch unternommen, lyrische Struktur in narrative Struktur zu verwandeln, sondern auch der, eine ins lyrische Modell eingebettete Ordnung ethischen Wissens zu narrativieren. Einzelne Figurenhandlungen erscheinen aus dieser Perspektive weniger als Bestandteile eines inhaltlichen Entwurfs mit dem Anspruch übergreifender Stimmmigkeit und dem Fluchtpunkt eines Deutungsangebots, sondern als Ausdruck verschieden graduierter Negierungen oder Positivierungen eines bestimmtes Wertes. Hierfür sprechen auch die konstanten Über- oder Unterzeichnungen der Figurenhandlungen, die als markantestes Merkmal der narrativen Faktur des Textes beschrieben werden. Die Mikroanalyse einer einzelnen Szene zeigt ferner, wie die Dichotomie von Statik und Dynamik, die schon dem lyrischen Entwurf der Hohen Minne eingeschrieben ist und die durch die Narrativierung des lyrischen Konzepts im ,Mauritius' zunehmend virulent wird, in Sequenzen aufeinanderfolgender Doppelungen von Bewegung und Zustand auserzählt wird. Insgesamt lässt sich der ,Mauritius' als Erprobung von Verfahren verstehen, eine idealisierte höfische Welt in Analogie zum lyrischen Modus auch im narrativen Modus zu literarisieren: als ein Stück Erzählkasuistik.

Place de la spectrophotométrie du LCR dans la suspicion d'hémorragie sous-arachnoïdiennenon traumatique (HSA) : analyse rétrospective des spectrophotométries positives au CHUVentre le 1.01.2005 et le 18.11.2010

Introduction : L'HSA d'origine anévrismale est une pathologie au pronostic sombre, tout retard diagnostique exposant le patient à un risque élevé de récidives hémorragiques potentiellement fatales. La sensibilité du CT scanner étant jugée insuffisante dans cette indication, la majorité des recommandations actuelles préconisent la réalisation systématique d'une ponction lombaire après toute imagerie cérébrale négative. L'analyse spectrophotométrique du LCR permet en effet de différencier un saignement récent dans l'espace sous-arachnoïdien d'une ponction lombaire traumatique par détection de bilirubine. Or, le caractère invasif de cet examen et son manque de spécificité posent des difficultés en pratique. De plus, l'excellente sensibilité des CT de dernières générations, du moins dans les premières heures suivant la survenue de l'HSA, remet en question le dogme d'une PL systématique dans l'algorithme diagnostique d'une céphalée suspecte. Objectif : Evaluer le rendement diagnostique de la spectrophotométrie du LCR dans le cadre d'une suspicion d'HSA après une imagerie normale, afin d'en préciser les indications. Méthode : Étude monocentrique et rétrospective au Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois de Lausanne du 1er janvier 2005 au 18 novembre 2010. Extraction de toutes les spectrophotométries positives et analyse approfondie des dossiers concernés. Dans un second temps, et durant la même période, revue de tous les séjours hospitaliers comportant le diagnostic d'HSA , afin d'extraire en particulier les HSA dont le diagnostic a été établi par spectrophotométrie en raison d'une imagerie initiale négative ou non conclusive. Résultats : 869 PL du 1er janvier 2005 au 18 novembre 2010. 36 (4.1%) examens positifs (concentration de bilirubine dans le LCR > 0.3 μmol/l), dont 14 (38.9%) dans un contexte d'HSA (valeur prédictive positive de 38.9%). Sur les 14 cas positifs, 3 ont été diagnostiqués exclusivement par la PL, mais aucune dans un cadre d'HSA anévrismale. Dans la même périodepériode, 235 HSA diagnostiquées, dont 7 (2.9%) avec une imagerie cérébrale initiale négative. Sur ces 7 cas, seuls 2 ont été diagnostiqués comme une HSA d'origine anévrismale. La sensibilité du CT dans notre recherche atteint donc 99.15%. Discussion : Sur les 36 spectrophotométries positives, 22 se sont révélées a posteriori faussement positives, confirmant dès lors la faible spécificité et la faible valeur prédictive positive de l'analyse spectrophotométrique du LCR . Ces faux positifs entraînent la réalisation d'examens invasifs (angiographie cérébrale conventionnelle), dont les complications sont bien décrites. Bien que les résultats ne nous permettent pas de chiffrer le nombre potentiel d'HSA manquées faute d'un examen du LCR, aucun cas d'HSA d'origine anévrismale n'a été diagnostiqué sur la base exclusive de la PL durant la période étudiée. Cette faible spécificité appuie l'idée de développer un score clinique prédictif afin de ne réserver la PL qu'aux patients jugés à haut risque d'HSA. La PL garde néanmoins un rôle dans la détection des HSA d'origine non anévrismales. Conclusions : Lors d'une suspicion clinique d'HSA, le rendement diagnostique de l'analyse du LCR après un angio- CT cérébral normal est faible, tout comme son impact sur la prise en charge, au prix d'un nombre important de faux positifs. La PL reste certainement indiquée face à des céphalées suspectes évoluant depuis plus de 24 heures. Toutefois, au vu de l'excellente valeur prédictive négative d'un CT cérébral réalisé précocement et interprété par un neuroradiologue, cet examen ne devrait être réservé qu'aux situations à haut risque d'HSA. A cet égard, le développement d'un score prédictif validé permettrait de mieux sélectionner les candidats à une PL.

Systemic in vivo lentiviral delivery of miR-15a/16 reduces malignancy in the NZB de novo mouse model of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Similar to human chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the de novo New Zealand Black (NZB) mouse model has a genetically determined age-associated increase in malignant B-1 clones and decreased expression of microRNAs miR-15a and miR-16 in B-1 cells. In the present study, lentiviral vectors were employed in vivo to restore miR-15a/16, and both the short-term single injection and long-term multiple injection effects of this delivery were observed in NZB. Control lentivirus without the mir-15a/16 sequence was used for comparison. We found that in vivo lentiviral delivery of mir-15a/16 increased miR-15a/16 expression in cells that were transduced (detected by GFP expression) and in sera when compared with control lentivirus treatment. More importantly, mice treated with the miR-expressing lentivirus had decreased disease. The lentivirus had little systemic toxicity while preferentially targeting B-1 cells. Short-term effects on B-1 cells were direct effects, and only malignant B-1 cells transduced with miR-15a/16 lentivirus had decreased viability. In contrast, long-term studies suggested both direct and indirect effects resulting from miR-15a/16 lentivirus treatment. A decrease in B-1 cells was found in both the transduced and non-transduced populations. Our data support the potential use of systemic lentiviral delivery of miR-15a/16 to ameliorate disease manifestations of CLL.

A novel Nrf2-miR-29-desmocollin-2 axis regulates desmosome function in keratinocytes.

The Nrf2 transcription factor controls the expression of genes involved in the antioxidant defense system. Here, we identified Nrf2 as a novel regulator of desmosomes in the epidermis through the regulation of microRNAs. On Nrf2 activation, expression of miR-29a and miR-29b increases in cultured human keratinocytes and in mouse epidermis. Chromatin immunoprecipitation identified the Mir29ab1 and Mir29b2c genes as direct Nrf2 targets in keratinocytes. While binding of Nrf2 to the Mir29ab1 gene activates expression of miR-29a and -b, the Mir29b2c gene is silenced by DNA methylation. We identified desmocollin-2 (Dsc2) as a major target of Nrf2-induced miR-29s. This is functionally important, since Nrf2 activation in keratinocytes of transgenic mice causes structural alterations of epidermal desmosomes. Furthermore, the overexpression of miR-29a/b or knockdown of Dsc2 impairs the formation of hyper-adhesive desmosomes in keratinocytes, whereas Dsc2 overexpression has the opposite effect. These results demonstrate that a novel Nrf2-miR-29-Dsc2 axis controls desmosome function and cutaneous homeostasis.
