Abstract
This article reviews the main discoveries achieved by transcriptomic approaches on HIV controller (HIC) and long-term non-progressor (LTNP) individuals, who are able to suppress HIV replication and maintain high CD4+ T cell levels, respectively, in the absence of antiretroviral therapy. Different studies using high throughput techniques have elucidated multifactorial causes implied in natural control of HIV infection. Genes related to IFN response, calcium metabolism, ribosome biogenesis, among others, are commonly differentially expressed in LTNP/HIC individuals. Additionally, pathways related with activation, survival, proliferation, apoptosis and inflammation, can be deregulated in these individuals. Likewise, recent transcriptomic studies include high-throughput sequencing in specific immune cell subpopulations, finding additional gene expression patterns associated to viral control and/or non-progression in immune cell subsets. Herein, we provide an overview of the main differentially expressed genes and biological routes commonly observed on immune cells involved in HIV infection from HIC and LTNP individuals, analyzing also different technical aspects that could affect the data analysis and the future perspectives and gaps to be addressed in this field.

Abstract
miR-630 is encoded by MIR630 gene (NC_000015.10) on 15q24.1. This miRNA is mostly associated with cytokine signaling in immune system. Several neoplastic as well as non-neoplastic conditions have been linked with dysregulation of miR-630. It is an oncogenic miRNA in renal cell carcinoma, multiple myeloma, colorectal cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, ovarian cancer and prostate cancer. On the other hand, it is a putative tumor suppressor miRNA in lung, cervical, breast, thyroid and esophageal tissues. In a number of other tissues, data regarding the role of miR-630 in the carcinogenesis is conflicting. Expression levels of miR-630 can be used as markers for prediction of cancer course. Moreover, miR-630 can influence response to chemoradiotherapy. This miRNA is also involved in the pathoetiology of IgA nephropathy, obstructive sleep apnea, age-related nuclear cataract and vitiligo. In the present review, we discuss the role of miR-630 in these conditions.

[PMID: 34871208 PMCID: PMC8568437 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000027428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Accepted: 09/17/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) infection is so complex that have not been clearly defined, despite intensive efforts have been made by many researchers. MicroRNA (miRNA) as regulation factor in various human diseases may influence the course of HIV-1 infection by targeting mRNAs. Thus, studies combining transcription of posttranscriptional miRNA regulation are required. METHODS With the purpose of identifying cascaded miRNA-mRNA regulatory relationships related to HIV infection in gene level, the parallel miRNA, and mRNA expression profiles were analyzed to select differential expressed miRNAs and mRNAs. Then, miRNA-mRNA interactions were predicted using 3 data sources and Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated based on the gene expression level for accuracy improvement. Furthermore, the calculation of the regulatory impact factors was conducted to reveal crucial regulators in HIV-1 infection. To give further insight into these transcription factor (TF) regulators, the differentially co-expression analysis was conducted to identify differentially co-expressed links and differential co-expressed genes and the co-expression gene modules were identified using a threshold-based hierarchical clustering method, then modules were combined into a miRNA-TF-mRNA network. RESULTS A total of 69,126 differentially co-expressed links and 626 differential co-expressed genes were identified. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that these co-expressed genes were significantly involved in immune response and apoptosis. Moreover, according to regulatory impact factors, 5 most influential TFs and miRNA in HIV-1 infection were identified and miRNA-TF-mRNA regulatory networks were built during the computing process. CONCLUSIONS In our study, a set of integrated methods was generated to identify important regulators and miRNA-TF-mRNA interactions. Parallel profiling analysis of the miRNAs and mRNAs expression of HIV/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients after antiretroviral therapy indicated that some regulators have wide impact on gene regulation and that these regulatory elements may bear significant implications on the underlying molecular mechanism and pathogenesis of AIDS occurrence.

MicroRNA-101-3p, MicroRNA-195-5p, and MicroRNA-223-3p in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells May Serve as Novel Biomarkers for Syphilis Diagnosis. Microb Pathog 2021; 152:104769. [PMID: 33524569 DOI: 10.1016/j.micpath.2021.104769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2020] [Revised: 01/12/2021] [Accepted: 01/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease of global prevalence. Current diagnostic methods lack sensitivity and specificity, which limits the early diagnosis and prognosis of the disease. MiRNAs hold great promise as potential biomarkers for infectious diseases diagnosis. We previously profiled the expression of miRNAs in PBMCs from patients with different stages of syphilis. We aimed to further confirm the miR-101-3p, miR-195-5p, and miR-223-3p expression profiles and evaluate their diagnostic value in syphilis infection. METHODS The expression levels of PBMC-derived miR-101-3p, miR-195-5p, and miR-223-3p were analyzed in 133 syphilis patients, 18 non-syphilis patients, and 23 healthy controls by RT-qPCR. ROC analysis was used to evaluate the differentiation power of these miRNAs in syphilis diagnosis, while the correlation between the expression of these miRNAs and TRUST titer was also statistically analyzed. RESULTS These miRNAs were significantly upregulated in syphilis patients in a stage-specific manner. ROC analysis indicated that miR-223-3p was powerful in discriminating between controls and patients with early, primary, secondary, and latent syphilis, as well as serological cure; the miR-195-5p/miR-223-3p panel showed an improved capacity to differentiate between syphilis patients, primary, or serofast-stage syphilis and controls, while the three miRNAs combined showed an improved capacity to differentiate latent syphilis or serological cure from controls. Importantly, miR-101-3p and miR-223-3p singly or jointly could specifically distinguish syphilis from non-syphilis patients. Moreover, TRUST titer was significantly correlated with miR-101-3p expression. CONCLUSIONS MiR-101-3p, miR-195-5p, and miR-223-3p might singly or jointly be potential diagnostic biomarkers at different stages of syphilis.

Expression profiling of human milk derived exosomal microRNAs and their targets in HIV-1 infected mothers. Sci Rep 2020; 10:12931. [PMID: 32737406 PMCID: PMC7395778 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-69799-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2020] [Accepted: 07/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite the use of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in HIV-1 infected mothers approximately 5% of new HIV-1 infections still occur in breastfed infants annually, which warrants for the development of novel strategies to prevent new HIV-1 infections in infants. Human milk (HM) exosomes are highly enriched in microRNAs (miRNAs), which play an important role in neonatal immunity. Furthermore, HM exosomes from healthy donors are known to inhibit HIV-1 infection and transmission; however, the effect of HIV-1 on HM exosomal miRNA signatures remains unknown. In this study, we used nCounter NanoString technology and investigated miRNAs expression profiles in first week postpartum HM exosomes from HIV-1 infected and uninfected control mothers (n = 36). Our results indicated that HIV-1 perturbed the differential expression patterns of 19 miRNAs (13 upregulated and 6 downregulated) in HIV-1 infected women compared to healthy controls. DIANA-miR functional pathway analyses revealed that multiple biological pathways are involved including cell cycle, pathways in cancer, TGF-β signaling, FoxO signaling, fatty acid biosynthesis, p53 signaling and apoptosis. Moreover, the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analyses of miR-630 and miR-378g yielded areas under the ROC curves of 0.82 (95% CI 0.67 to 0.82) and 0.83 (95% CI 0.67 to 0.83), respectively highlighting their potential to serve as biomarkers to identify HIV-1 infection in women. These data may contribute to the development of new therapeutic strategies in prevention of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV-1.

Abstract
MicroRNAs are considered as potential biomarkers, agents, or therapeutic targets; few studies have addressed the expression of miRNAs in treatment-naïve patients infected with HIV-1. The aim of this study was to assess plasma relative circulating miRNA expression profiles in treatment-naïve Mexican patients with HIV/AIDS and healthy individuals using a commercial array. A low CD4+ T cell count and high viral load were found in all patients. Decreased relative miRNA-296-5p expression was observed in patients; moreover, this was the only miRNA that showed differences between the two groups. Thus, we measured the absolute expression of miR-296-5p by qPCR, confirming the result with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). There is evidence that miR-296-5p regulates the expression of the PIN1 gene, which encodes the peptidylprolyl Cis/Trans isomerase NIMA-Interacting-1, that is involved in different stages of the biological cycle of HIV-1, this relationship is corroborated by bioinformatics analysis and ELISA assay was used to measure plasma levels of PIN1. The decreased expression of miR-296-5p found in naïve patients with HIV infection suggests a regulatory activity of this miRNA on virus replication, making it a potential therapeutic agent against HIV. Finally, miR-296-5p could be inhibiting the virus transcription by regulating genes different than PIN1.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of an emerging virus disease is a difficult task due to lack of scientific data about the emerging virus during outbreak threats. Several biological aspects should be studied faster, such as virus replication and dissemination, immune responses to this emerging virus on susceptible host and specially the virus pathogenesis. Integrative in silico transcriptome analysis is a promising approach for understanding biological events in complex diseases. In this study, we propose an in silico protocol for identifying key genes and pathways useful to understand emerging virus disease pathogenesis. To validate our protocol, the emerging arbovirus Zika virus (ZIKV) was chosen as a target micro-organism. First, an integrative transcriptome data from neural cells infected with ZIKV was used to identify shared differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The DEGs were used to identify the potential candidate genes and pathways in ZIKV pathogenesis through gene enrichment analysis and protein‑protein interaction network construction. Thirty DEGs (24 upregulated and 6 downregulated) were identified in all ZIKV-infected cells, primarily associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress and DNA replication pathways. Some of these genes and pathways had biological functions linked to neurogenesis and/or apoptosis, confirming the potential of this protocol to find key genes and pathways involved on disease pathogenesis. Moreover, the proposed in silico protocol performed anintegrated analysis that is able to predict and identify putative biomarkers from different transcriptome data. These biomarkers could be useful to understand virus disease pathogenesis and also help the identification of candidate antiviral drugs.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a common cancer and remains the second-leading cause of cancer-associated mortality in men, but diagnosis of PCa remains a main clinical challenge. To investigate the involvement of differentially expressing genes in PCa with deregulated pathways to allow earlier diagnosis of the disease, transcriptomic analyses of differential expression genes in fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies helped to discriminate PCa from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We identified 255 genes that were deregulated in prostate tumors compared with BPH tissues. qRT-PCR was conducted to examine the expression levels of the four genes in FNA biopsies and confirmed that ITGBL1 was significantly up-regulated and HOXA7, KRT15 and TGM4 were down-regulated in the PCa compared to the BPH, with a sensitivity of 87.1% and a specificity of 87.8%; the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was estimated at 0.94, which was significantly improved compared with PSA alone (AUC = 0.82). Moreover, the increased expression of ITGBL1 correlated with total cholesterol, triglyceride and PSA. Our results demonstrated that transcriptomic analyses in FNA biopsies could facilitate rapid identification of potential targets for therapy and diagnosis of PCa.
