Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents a frequently occurring adulthood acute leukemia (AL). Great progresses have been achieved in the treatment of AML, but its pathogenic mechanism remains unclear. This study reported the biological functions of lncRNA DUBR in AML pathogenic mechanism. As a result, lncRNA DUBR showed high expression level within AML, resulting in poor prognosis, especially in M4 AML. In vitro studies elucidated that knockdown of DUBR with small interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in the suppression of survival and colony formation ability, as well as induction of apoptosis, in AML cells. RNA pull-down assay and computational revealed that DUBR could sponge with miRNA-142-3P and interact with FUS protein. MiRNA-142-3P have a negative correlation with DUBR and overexpression of miRNA-142-3P inhibited cell growth in AML. Meanwhile, DUBR promoted the expression of FUS protein, targeting inhibition of FUS significantly promoted cell apoptosis in AML cell lines. In conclusion, these results revealed new mechanism of lncRNA DUBR in AML malignant behavior, and suggested that the manipulation of DUBR expression could serve as a potential strategy in AML therapy.

MiR-142-3p regulates synaptopathy-driven disease progression in multiple sclerosis. Neuropathol Appl Neurobiol 2021; 48:e12765. [PMID: 34490928 PMCID: PMC9291627 DOI: 10.1111/nan.12765] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2021] [Revised: 08/11/2021] [Accepted: 08/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Aim We recently proposed miR‐142‐3p as a molecular player in inflammatory synaptopathy, a new pathogenic hallmark of multiple sclerosis (MS) and of its mouse model experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), that leads to neuronal loss independently of demyelination. MiR‐142‐3p seems to be unique among potential biomarker candidates in MS, since it is an inflammatory miRNA playing a dual role in the immune and central nervous systems. Here, we aimed to verify the impact of miR‐142‐3p circulating in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of MS patients on clinical parameters, neuronal excitability and its potential interaction with disease modifying therapies (DMTs). Methods and Results In a cohort of 151 MS patients, we found positive correlations between CSF miR‐142‐3p levels and clinical progression, IL‐1β signalling as well as synaptic excitability measured by transcranial magnetic stimulation. Furthermore, therapy response of patients with ‘low miR‐142‐3p’ to dimethyl fumarate (DMF), an established disease‐modifying treatment (DMT), was superior to that of patients with ‘high miR‐142‐3p’ levels. Accordingly, the EAE clinical course of heterozygous miR‐142 mice was ameliorated by peripheral DMF treatment with a greater impact relative to their wild type littermates. In addition, a central protective effect of this drug was observed following intracerebroventricular and ex vivo acute treatments of EAE wild type mice, showing a rescue of miR‐142‐3p‐dependent glutamatergic alterations. By means of electrophysiology, molecular and biochemical analysis, we suggest miR‐142‐3p as a molecular target of DMF. Conclusion MiR‐142‐3p is a novel and potential negative prognostic CSF marker of MS and a promising tool for identifying personalised therapies.
