Integration of miRNA‐regulatory networks in hepatic stellate cells identifies TIMP3 as a key factor in chronic liver disease

Abstract: Background & Aims: Activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) is a critical process involved in liver fibrosis. Several miRNAs are implicated in gene regulation during this process but their exact and respective contribution is still incompletely understood. Here we propose an integrative approach of miRNA-regulatory networks to predict new targets. Methods: miRNA regulatory networks in activated HSCs were built using lists of validated miRNAs and the CyTargetLinker tool. The resulting graphs were filtered acc… Show more

“…Here, the upregulation of TIMP3 correlated with a downregulation of miR-221-3p and miR-222-3p in both CIS-resistant cell lines. Regulation of TIMP3 by miR-221-3p was described in diabetic retinopathy [ 68 ] and by miR-221-3p and miR-222-3p chronic liver disease [ 69 ]. Overexpression of miR-222-3p was associated with the downregulation of TIMP3 in osteosarcoma and promoted cells proliferation and invasion [ 70 ].…”

“…miRNAs play a crucial role in maintaining adipocyte homeostasis, and they can also be used to identify novel molecular mechanisms underlying adipocyte function. miR-221 is one such miRNA, the expression of which declines during the course of adipocyte differentiation [24,61,62], which is up-regulated in the adipose tissue of obese human subjects [23], but is also associated with a number of cancers [46][47][48]. In this study, the effects of miR-221-3p on terminal adipocyte differentiation and the mechanisms involved were investigated.…”

“…Elevation of miR-221-3p has been associated with several cancers [46][47][48] and it is thus considered an oncomiR. Since an altered phenotype characterized by impaired lipid storage is a characteristic of tumor-associated adipocytes [49,50], we next studied the expression of miR-221-3p in the adipose tissue proximal to breast carcinoma (BC) in a total of 47 subjects undergoing mastectomy.…”
