  2. Introduction

  3. MicroRNA (miRNAs) The first miRNA, lin-4, was identified in 1993 in a genetic screen for mutants that disrupt the timing of post-embryonic development in Caenorhabditis elegans (Lee et al., 1993). miRNAs are approximately 22-nucleotide noncoding RNAs that constitute silencers of target gene expression. Development 132, 4645-4652

  4. Development, 2005

  5. Deregulated cell proliferation and apoptosis play a major role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MicroRNAs participate in the modulation of key molecules linked to hepatocarcinogenesis. Clin Cancer Res 2009;15(16):5073–81

  6. Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)

  7. Pathology of HCV • Acute Hepatitis C: • Generally benign: • No jaundice (80%) • Usually asymptomatic • Can be severe, but liver failure rare Only real threat of acute Hepatitis C is its ability to reach chronic stages undetected and untreated.

  8. Pathology of HCV • Chronic Hepatitis C: • 70% of patients become chronic • Possible results: • Cirrhosis • End-stage liver disease • Hepatocellular carcinoma

  9. The gene deleted in liver cancer-1 (DLC-1) is located on human chromosome 8p21–22, a region thought to harbor tumor suppressorgenes on the basis of its frequent deletion or loss of heterozygosity in a variety of human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Deleted in Liver Cancer-1 (DLC-1) Oncogene (2004) 23, 1308–1313

  14. Luciferase Reporter Assay

  15. Results

  16. Fig. 1. Changes in miRNAs in HCV-infected primary hepatocytes. Array-based Klenow extension profiles are shown for pairwise comparison of uninfected hepatocyte miRNAs with hepatocytes infected with HCV genotype 1a (A), genotype 1b (B), or genotype 2a (C).

  17. Fig. 2. Changes in miR-141 and miR-200a upon HCV infection of hepatocytes.

  18. Summary-1 cells infected with the HCV strains showed induced expression of miR-141, miR-200a, and miR-200b and miR-200c.

  19. Fig. 3. Inhibition of DLC-1 expression by miR-141 induced in HCV infected hepatocytes.

  20. Summary-2 The results suggest that DLC-1 expression in HCV1a-infected cells is regulated by intracellular miR-141.

  21. Fig. 4. DLC-1 protein level is reduced in cells with replicating HCV.

  22. Fig. 5. Changes in DLC1 protein levels in response to miR-141 in uninfected and HCV1a-infected cells.

  25. Summary- 3 HCV replication in infected hepatocytes relies on miR-141–mediated depletion of tumor suppressor DLC-1.

  28. Summary- 4 The results showed an approximately 40% increase in cell proliferation of HCV1a-infected hepatocytes. The increased cell proliferation is neutralized when the DLC-1 level was artificially increased through transfection with a DLC-1 expression vector.

  29. Discussion

  30. Efficient HCV replication is correlated with miR-141–mediated reduction of DLC-1 protein in virus infected cells. The exact mechanism by which miR-141 or DLC-1 modulate virus replication is not clear.
