| Research Abstract |
We performed large-scale profiling of microRNA (miRNAs) in human granulosa-derived cell lines (e.g., KGN) by high-throughput sequencing. In these cell lines, we found that miR-21 accounted for more than 80% of AGO2 (designated EIFC2) -bound miRNAs, suggesting that it played a central role as a functional miRNA in human GCs. We also performed cDNA cloning of AGO2-bound mRNAs in KGN cells and identified COL4A1 mRNA as a possible miR-21 target in KGN cells, which was corroborated by subsequent experimental validation. In proceeding in vitro functional studies using synthetic mimics of miRNA precursors or short-interference RNAs, we also found that these short double-strand RNAs (23- and/or 24-nucleotide dsRNAs) readily induced apoptosis in human granulosa cell tumor-derived cells but not in other cell types. Furthermore, we revealed that the short dsRNAs transcriptionally hyper-induce retinoic acid-inducible gene-I through dsRNA-activated protein kinase.
