Through high-throughput miRNA and cDNA profiling, pathway analysis, and data mining, epigenetically regulated miRNAs were identified in drug-resistant, mesenchymal-like ovarian cancer cells, which may serve as markers to combat therapy-induced short-term survival and tumor metastatic potential.
Background: DNA methylation, histone modifications, and miRNAs affect ovarian cancer (OC) progression and therapy response.Purpose: Identification of epigenetically downregulated miRNAs in drug-resistant OC ce l l lines with a possible role in drug resistance and/or drug-induced mesenchymal-like phenotype.Methods: MiRNA profiling was performed on parental and carboplatin-resistant OC cells, MES-OV and MES-OV CBP. RT-qPCR validation, epigenetic modulation and other CBP-resistant OC ce l l lines were used to select miRNAs of interest. The integration of miRNA-predicted target genes and differentially expressed genes (DEGs), pathway and functional analysis were used for forecasting their biological role. Data mining was performed to determine their possible prognostic and predictive values.Results: MiRNA profiling revealed 48 downregulated miRNAs in OC cells whose drug sensitivity and metastatic potential were impacted by epigenetic modulators. Of the fourteen selected, nine were validated as changed, and seven of these restored their expression upon treatment with epigenetic inhibitors. Only three had similar expression patterns in other OC cel l lines. MiRNA-mRNA integrative analysis resulted in 56 target DEGs. Pathway analysis revealed that these genes are involved in ce l l adhesion, migration, and invasion. The functional analysis confirmed the role of miR-103a-3p, miR-17-5p and miR-107 in cel l invasion, while data mining showed their prognostic and predictive values. Only miR-103a-3p was epigenetically regulated at the constitutive level.Conclusion: High throughput miRNA and cDNA profiling coupled with pathway analysis and data mining delivered evidence for miRNAs which can be epigenetically regulated in drug-resistant, mesenchymal-like OC cells as possible markers to combat therapy-induced short overa l l survival and tumor metastatic potential.
