RESUMO
In this study we have investigated the effects of a tumour suppressor microRNA, miR-214, on gene expression in HPV-positive (CaSki) and HPV-negative cervical cancer cells (C33A) by RNA sequencing using next generation sequencing. The HPV-positive and HPV-negative cervical cancer cells were either miR-214- knocked-out or miR-214-overexpressed. Gene expression analysis showed that a total of 904 genes were upregulated and 365 genes were downregulated between HPV-positive and HPV-negative cervical cancer cells with a fold change of +/- 2. Furthermore, 11 differentially expressed and relevant genes (TNFAIP3, RAB25, MET, CYP1B1, NDRG1, CD24, LOXL2, CD44, PMS2, LATS1 and MDM1) which showed a fold change of +/-5 were selected to confirm by real-time PCR. This study represents the first report of miR-214 on global gene expression in the context of HPV.

In this study, we investigate the effect of one such micro RNA, miR-214 which is frequently down-regulated in cervical cancer. In this study, we either CRISPR knocked out or overexpressed miR-214 in cervical cancer cells and analyzed the global mRNA expression by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) It was observed that a total of 108 genes were upregulated and 178 downregulated between the samples, above and below the baseline respectively. Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analysis reveal distinct biological processes and pathways. Analysis of gene regulatory networks also gave different network patterns in the two samples. We confirmed the RNA sequencing data for 10 genes; IFIF27, SMAD3, COX11, TP53INP1, ABL2, FGF8, TNFAIP3, NRG1, SP3 and MDM4 by Real-time PCR. This is the first report on the effect of miR-214 on global mRNA profile in cervical cancer cells. This study also reports new biomarkers for cervical cancer prognosis.

The role of Mithramycin as an anticancer drug has been well studied. Sarcoma is a type of cancer arising from cells of mesenchymal origin. Though incidence of sarcoma is not of significant percentage, it becomes vital to understand the role of Mithramycin in controlling tumor progression of sarcoma. In this article, we have analyzed the global gene expression profile changes induced by Mithramycin in two different sarcoma lines from whole genome gene expression profiling microarray data. We have found that the primary mode of action of Mithramycin is by global repression of key cellular processes and gene families like phosphoproteins, kinases, alternative splicing, regulation of transcription, DNA binding, regulation of histone acetylation, negative regulation of gene expression, chromosome organization or chromatin assembly and cytoskeleton.
RESUMO
Mithramycin (MTR) is a clinically approved DNA-binding antitumor antibiotic currently in Phase 2 clinical trials at National Institutes of Health for treatment of osteosarcoma. In view of the resurgence in the studies of this generic antibiotic as a human medicine, we have examined the binding properties of MTR with the integral component of chromatin - histone proteins - as a part of our broad objective to classify DNA-binding molecules in terms of their ability to bind chromosomal DNA alone (single binding mode) or both histones and chromosomal DNA (dual binding mode). The present report shows that besides DNA, MTR also binds to core histones present in chromatin and thus possesses the property of dual binding in the chromatin context. In contrast to the MTR-DNA interaction, association of MTR with histones does not require obligatory presence of bivalent metal ion like Mg(2+). As a consequence of its ability to interact with core histones, MTR inhibits histone H3 acetylation at lysine 18, an important signature of active chromatin, in vitro and ex vivo. Reanalysis of microarray data of Ewing sarcoma cell lines shows that upon MTR treatment there is a significant down regulation of genes, possibly implicating a repression of H3K18Ac-enriched genes apart from DNA-binding transcription factors. Association of MTR with core histones and its ability to alter post-translational modification of histone H3 clearly indicates an additional mode of action of this anticancer drug that could be implicated in novel therapeutic strategies.
