doi: 10.3390/ijms232415760
Figure Lengend Snippet: miR-193b-3p activates IGF2BP1 transcriptionally as an enhancer-related miRNA. ( A ) The overlapped signals of miR-193b-3p and IGF2BP1 mRNA. The Cy5-labeled probes target goat IGF2BP1 mRNA (red), and FAM-labeled chi-miR-193b-3p probes (green) are synthesized to localize them in MuSCs. The nucleus is stained with anti-DAPI (blue). Scale bar = 50 μm. ( B ) miR-193b-3p destabilizes IGF2BP1 mRNA. ( C ) miR-193b-3p distributes in both cytoplasm and nucleus. N, Nucleus; C, Cytoplasm. ( D ) miR-193b-3p promotes levels of IGF2BP1 hnRNA. ( E ) Human miR-193b (hsa-mir-193b) is located in the enhancer region. The upper panel, hsa-mir-193b sits in the peak and valley of H3K4Me1/H3K4me3/ H3K27ac derived from 7 cell lines in ENCODE UCSC. Lower panel, the sequence of goat pri-miR-193b and pre-miR-193b-5p and 3p. ( F ) Pre-miR-193b-3p induces gene expression. Promoter vectors including pre-193b-3p, pre-193b-5p as well as the blank (pBasic) and control (pCtrl) (1.28 μg/mL) were transfected into MuSC and HeLa, and F-Luc/R-Luc levels were measured 48 h post transection. ( G ) Neighboring genes of miR-193b-3p, including MKL2, BFAR, and PARN, are the same in the goat and mouse genome. ( H ) Goat miR-193b induces the expression of its neighboring genes. ( I ) Pri-miR-193b activates the abundance of its neighboring genes and IGF2BP1. ( J ) Goat miR-193b-3p is unable to induce miR-365-3p. Left panel, Disturbing miR-193b-3p in goat MuSCs fails to elevate transcripts of miR-365 (right panel). Right panel, miR193b (red box) and miR365a (green box) in humans, mouse, and bovine are neighboring, while in goats they are distributed on different chromosomes. An arrow marks the transcriptional direction. Data are shown as mean ± MSE. An unpaired two-tailed t -test is used to evaluate the means difference. *** p < 0.001, ** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05, and § p < 0.1.
Article Snippet: To detect the spatial localization of IGF2BP1 and miR-193b-3p RNA, the Cy5- labeled fluorescence oligonucleotide probes, complementary to goat IGF2BP1 mRNA (5′-GCCGGATTTGACCAAGAACTGGCCGCTGTAGGA-3′, red), and FAM-labeled chi-miR-193b-3p probes (5′-AGCGGGACTTTGTGGGCCAGTT-3′, green) were synthesized (Servicebio, Wuhan, China).
