Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non coding RNAs that regulate the gene expression and play a relevant role in physiopathological mechanisms such as development, proliferation, death, and differentiation of normal and cancer cells. Recently, abnormal expression of miRNAs has been reported in most of solid or hematopoietic malignancies, including multiple myeloma (MM), where miRNAs have been found deeply dysregulated and act as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Presently, the most recognized approach for definition of miRNA portraits is based on microarray profiling analysis. We here describe a workflow based on the identification of dysregulated miRNAs in plasma cells from MM patients based on Affymetrix technology. We describe how it is possible to search miRNA putative targets performing whole gene expression profile on MM cell lines transfected with miRNA mimics or inhibitors followed by luciferase reporter assay to analyze the specific targeting of the 3'untranslated region (UTR) sequence of a mRNA by selected miRNAs. These technological approaches are suitable strategies for the identification of relevant druggable targets in MM.

摘要

微小RNA(miRNA)是短链非编码RNA,可调节基因表达,并在生理病理机制中发挥相关作用,如正常细胞和癌细胞的发育、增殖、死亡及分化。最近,在大多数实体瘤或血液系统恶性肿瘤中都报道了miRNA的异常表达,包括多发性骨髓瘤(MM),其中miRNA被发现存在严重失调,并作为癌基因或肿瘤抑制因子发挥作用。目前,定义miRNA图谱最公认的方法是基于微阵列分析。我们在此描述了一种基于Affymetrix技术鉴定MM患者浆细胞中失调miRNA的工作流程。我们描述了如何通过对转染了miRNA模拟物或抑制剂的MM细胞系进行全基因表达谱分析,然后进行荧光素酶报告基因检测,以分析选定miRNA对mRNA 3'非翻译区(UTR)序列的特异性靶向,从而搜索miRNA的潜在靶标。这些技术方法是鉴定MM中相关可成药靶标的合适策略。
