High levels of apoptosis are induced in human glioma cell lines by co-administration of peptide nucleic acids targeting miR-221 and miR-222

Abstract: The biological activity of a combined treatment of U251, U373 and T98G glioma cell lines with two anti-miR PNAs, directed against miR‑221 and miR‑222 and conjugated with an ocataarginine tail (R8-PNA-a221 and R8-PNA-a222) for efficient cellular delivery, was determined. Apoptosis was analyzed, and the effect of the combined treatment of glioma cells with either or both PNAs on the reversion of drug-resistance phenotype was assessed in the temozolomide-resistant T98G glioma cell line. Selectivity of PNA/miRNA i… Show more

“…Antisense technology also has proven successful in blocking miRNA activity: synthetic oligonucleotides of different chemistries targeted to known oncogenic miRNAs, such as miR-17, miR-21, miR-155, and miR-221/222 promoted not only induction of apoptosis and inhibition of proliferation, but also tumour regression and metastasis suppression in vivo [32][33][34][35][36][37][38]. The drugs Miravirsen and Regulus RG-101, aimed at suppressing miRNA-122 for the treatment of hepatitis C, have successfully progressed into clinical trials, and thus provide grounds to believe that, in the near future, effective antisense-based anti-miRNA therapies will be developed to combat oncopathology [39,40].…”

“…miR-222a, miR-205a and miR-205b were expressed at high levels in 6 id interdigits, but their expression was significantly lower at 7.5 id. As for most miRNAs identified in this study, the functional significance of these miRNAs has been associated with oncogenesis, but their function involves inhibition of apoptosis (Zhang et al 2015;Brognara et al 2016). In addition, there is also information suggesting a physiological role of these miRNAs in various aspects of skeletogenesis and bone differentiation targeting RUNX2, which is a master transcription factor of osteogenesis (Zhang et al 2012;Yan et al 2016).…”

“…There is also evidence to the contrary. Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) targeting either or both miRNA-221 or -222, resulting in a decrease of their levels, were found to be cytotoxic to three glioma cell lines [91]. The temozolomide-resistant cell line, T98G, was re-sensitised to this treatment in the presence of either or both of these PNAs.…”
