DICER1 Loss and Alu RNA Induce Age-Related Macular Degeneration via the NLRP3 Inflammasome and MyD88
Alu RNA accumulation due to DICER1 deficiency in the retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) is implicated in geographic atrophy (GA), an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration that causes blindness in millions of individuals. The mechanism of Alu RNA-induced cytotoxicity is unknown. Here we show that DICER1 deficit or Alu RNA exposure activates the NLRP3 inflammasome and triggers TLR-ind...
BACKGROUND Nasal chondromesenchymal hamartoma (NCMH) is a very rare, benign tumour of the sinonasal tract usually presenting in infants. We present a systematic review of NCMH cases alongside a case report of an adult with asymptomatic NCMH. METHODS A systematic review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. A PubMed, EMBASE and manual search through references of relevant publica...
A growing body of evidence indicates that miRNAs may be a class of genetic elements that can either drive or suppress oncogenesis. In this study we analyzed the somatic copy number variation of 14 miRNA genes frequently found to be either over- or underexpressed in lung cancer, as well as two miRNA biogenesis genes, DICER1 and DROSHA, in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Our analysis showed t...
microRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in pancreas development and in regulation of insulin expression in the adult. Here we show that loss of miRNAs activity in beta-cells during embryonic development results in lower beta-cell mass and in impaired glucose tolerance. Dicer1-null cells initially constitute a significant portion of the total beta-cell population. However, during postnatal devel...
MicroRNAs, by modulating gene expression, have been implicated as regulators of various cellular and physiological processes, including differentiation, proliferation, and cancer. Here, we study the role of microRNAs in Schwann cell (SC) differentiation by conditional removal of the microRNA processing enzyme Dicer1. We reveal that both male and female mice lacking Dicer1 in SC (Dicer1 conditio...
The cellular requirements of Dicer, an essential miRNA processing enzyme, and the consequences of altered levels of it on tumorigenesis are incompletely understood. We review the effects of Dicer loss in cells of different origin and whether loss of p53 permits cell survival and growth in the absence of Dicer.
Comparing the gene-expression profiles of sick and healthy individuals can help in understanding disease. Such differential expression analysis is a well-established way to find gene sets whose expression is altered in the disease. Recent approaches to gene-expression analysis go a step further and seek differential co-expression patterns, wherein the level of co-expression of a set of genes di...
BACKGROUND Dicer endonuclease, critical for maturation of miRNAs, is depleted in certain forms of cardiomyopathy which results in differential expression of certain microRNAs. We sought to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the rapid loss of cardiac function following cardiac-specific Dicer depletion in adult mice. RESULTS Conditional Dicer deletion in the adult murine myocardium demonstrate...
Pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB) is the most frequent pediatric lung tumor and often the first indication of a pleiotropic cancer predisposition, DICER1 syndrome, comprising a range of other individually rare, benign and malignant tumors of childhood and early adulthood. The genetics of -associated DICER1 tumorigenesis are unusual in that tumors typically bear neomorphic missense mutations at on...
Abstract Context: DICER1 mutations are found in multinodular goiter and differentiated thyroid carcinoma children, can be a manifestation of syndrome, but the prevalence their significance adult-onset nodules is unknown. Objective: Determine 1) hotspot nodules; 2) frequency second pathogenic variant with mutations; 3) other cancer driver without mutations. Design: Population-based study 14,993 ...
