We aimed to shed new light on the roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) in liver cancer using an integrative in silico bioinformatics analysis. A new protocol for target prediction and functional analysis is presented and applied to the 26 highly differentially deregulated miRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma. This framework comprises: (1) the overlap of prediction results by four out of five target prediction tools, including TargetScan, PicTar, miRanda, DIANA-microT and miRDB (combining machine-learning, alignment, interaction energy and statistical tests in order to minimize false positives), (2) evidence from previous microarray analysis on the expression of these targets, (3) gene ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analysis of the miRNA targets and their pathways and (4) linking these results to oncogenesis and cancer hallmarks. This yielded new insights into the roles of miRNAs in cancer hallmarks. Here we presented several key targets and hundreds of new targets that are significantly enriched in many new cancer-related hallmarks. In addition, we also revealed some known and new oncogenic pathways for liver cancer. These included the famous MAPK, TGFβ and cell cycle pathways. New insights were also provided into Wnt signaling, prostate cancer, axon guidance and oocyte meiosis pathways. These signaling and developmental pathways crosstalk to regulate stem cell transformation and implicate a role of miRNAs in hepatic stem cell deregulation and cancer development. By analyzing their complete interactome, we proposed new categorization for some of these miRNAs as either tumor-suppressors or oncomiRs with dual roles. Therefore some of these miRNAs may be addressed as therapeutic targets or used as therapeutic agents. Such dual roles thus expand the view of miRNAs as active maintainers of cellular homeostasis. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 22 nucleotides non-coding RNAs that play pivotal regulatory roles in diverse organisms including the humans and are difficult to be identified due to lack of either sequence features or robust algorithms to efficiently identify. Therefore, we made a tool that is Mi-Discoverer for the detection of miRNAs in human genome. The tools used for the development of software are Microsoft Office Access 2003, the JDK version 1.6.0, BioJava version 1.0, and the NetBeans IDE version 6.0. All already made miRNAs softwares were web based; so the advantage of our project was to make a desktop facility to the user for sequence alignment search with already identified miRNAs of human genome present in the database. The user can also insert and update the newly discovered human miRNA in the database. Mi-Discoverer, a bioinformatics tool successfully identifies human miRNAs based on multiple sequence alignment searches. It's a non redundant database containing a large collection of publicly available human miRNAs. 相似文献

miRNA是一类动、植物细胞中负责转录后调控的非编码RNA,植物的miRNA通常来源于具有茎环结构的单链RNA前体上,加工成熟后同ARGONAUTE转变成蛋白复合体结构,通过结合并沉默蛋白合成模板的方式关闭完整的基因表达网络。由于miRNA存在组织表达的特异性,且miRNA在植物中的表达高度保守。通过高通量测序获得的红花(Carthamus tinctorious L.)miRNA序列信息与红花转录EST数据库比对,通过靶基因预测筛选,对属于104个家族的173个红花miRNA进行预测,其中得到109个miRNAs对应调控的385个红花靶基因。并且通过Nr基因注释表明多数红花miRNA的靶基因编码包括调控细胞生长发育、信号转导及新陈代谢等相关的功能蛋白。 相似文献

Aphid is one of the most serious, sap‐sucking insect pests which cause significant losses of crop yields. The aim of this study is to investigate whether transgenic plants expressing Zephyranthes candida agglutinin (ZCA) could confer enhanced resistance to aphids. Tobacco was transformed with a plasmid, pCAMBIAZCA, containing the marker genes nptII and gusA and the Zephyranthes candida agglutinin gene (zca) via Agrobacterium tumefaciens‐mediated transformation. Twenty‐six independent transgenic plants were regenerated. Western blot analysis revealed ZCA expression at various levels in transgenic plants. Insect bioassay tests showed that transgenic plants expressing a high level of ZCA significantly inhibited the growth of the population of peach potato aphids (Myzus persicae Sulzer). This is the first report in which transgenic plants expressing ZCA conferred enhanced resistance to aphids. Our study suggests the zca gene could be a useful candidate for genetic engineering strategies in plants to provide aphid resistance. 相似文献

An dem stets wurzelfreien Rhizom von Corallorhiza trifida Chat. (Orchidaceae) konnten hin und wieder kleine Wurzeln von benachbarten Pflanzen gefunden werden. Solche Wurzeln sitzen fest an lang behaarten Organen. Morphologisch-anatomische Untersuchungen bestätigen, daß einige dieser Haare auch in die lebende Wurzel einzudringen vermögen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Entwicklungsweise und Mykotrophie der Korallenwurz beschrieben und das Mykorrhizaorgan mit den einfachsten bzw. primitivsten Haustorienformen mancher parasitischer Blütenpflanzen verglichen. Bei diesen für eine große Zahl von Orchideen typischen Organen handelt es sich zwar nicht um Haustorien im engeren Sinne, die Möglichkeit einer phylogenetischen Umkonstruktion zu Kontaktorganen wird aber diskutiert. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding nucleotide sequences between 17 and 25 nucleotides in length that primarily function
in the regulation of gene expression. A since miRNA has thousand of predict targets in a complex, regulatory cell signaling
network. Therefore, it is of interest to study multiple target genes simultaneously. Hence, we describe a web tool (developed using
Java programming language and MySQL database server) to analyse multiple targets of pre-selected miRNAs. We cross validated
the tool in eight most highly expressed miRNAs in the antrum region of stomach. This helped to identify 43 potential genes that are
target of at least six of the referred miRNAs. The developed tool aims to reduce the randomness and increase the chance of
selecting strong candidate target genes and miRNAs responsible for playing important roles in the studied tissue.

microRNAs(miRNAs)是一类在转录后水平调控基因表达的不编码蛋白质的小RNA(长度20—24个碱基)。其中,miR-124a是一个在哺乳动物中枢神经系统高度表达的miRNA,在神经前体细胞向神经元分化的过程中起着举足轻重的作用。由于miRNAs特异性地识别靶基因的3′端调控区(3′UTR)的靶序列,因此,在人类起源过程中基因3′UTR的单核苷酸序列变异有可能导致miRNA调控的改变。通过靶基因预测和3′UTR区在哺乳动物代表物种间的同源序列比较,我们发现miR-124a的靶基因中有一个基因(PLOD3)3′UTR的靶位点中存在人类特异突变位点。利用体外报告基因系统,发现PLOD3基因3′UTR靶位点中所含的一个人类特异的突变导致miR-124a对PLOD3的调控效率降低。研究表明,miRNAs靶基因3′UTR的序列变异具有功能效应,它有可能是人类中枢神经系统在起源和演化中发挥关键作用的重要遗传机制之一。 相似文献

Recently, the identification of miRNA targets has received much attention. The strategies to determine miRNA targets include bioinformatic prediction and experimental assays. The bioinformatic prediction methods are mainly based on the confirmed rules of interaction between miRNAs and their targets, and are carried out by programs, such as miRanda, TargetScan, TargetScanS, RNAhybrid, DIANA-microT, PicTar, RNA22 and FindTar, which follow well-known principles. The experimental assays to find miRNA targets employ immunoprecipitation of AGO proteins to identify interacting mRNAs, or the analysis of mRNA or protein levels to identify genes which can be regulated by miRNAs. The improvement of current bioinformatic and experimental assays and the development of novel assays will enable greater efficiency in the identification of miRNA targets and thus facilitate miRNA research. This paper describes progress in the prediction and identification of miRNA targets. 相似文献
