Analysis of 13 cell types reveals evidence for the expression of numerous novel primate- and tissue-specific microRNAs
Open accessAbstract
Significance: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small ∼22-nt RNAs that are important regulators of posttranscriptional gene expression. Since their initial discovery, they have been shown to be involved in many cellular processes, and their misexpression is associated with disease etiology. Currently, nearly 2,800 human miRNAs are annotated in public repositories. A key question in miRNA research is how many miRNAs are harbored by the human genome. To answer this question, we examined 1,323 short RNA sequence samples and identified 3,707 novel miRNAs, many of which are human-specific and tissue-specific. Our findings suggest that the human genome expresses a greater number of miRNAs than has previously been appreciated and that many more miRNA molecules may play key roles in disease etiology.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
Analyzing 1,323 short RNA-seq samples from 13 human cell types, this study identifies 3,707 novel mature miRNAs from 3,494 precursors at FDR ≤ 0.05, many of which are tissue-specific and primate-specific. The authors argue that public repositories substantially underrepresent the human miRNA repertoire.
Key findings
- From >23 billion sequenced reads, ~8.2 billion mapped unambiguously; 3,707 novel mature miRNAs were identified, and 91.5% (3,392 of 3,707) were discovered independently in at least 10 samples.
- Ago CLIP-seq supported 1,657 of 3,707 novel miRNAs (44.7%), compared with 1,517 of 2,772 miRBase release 20 miRNAs (54.7%).
- Novel miRNAs showed strong tissue dependence: low intertissue Jaccard similarity, PCA clustering by tissue, and stem-loop RT-PCR confirmation of 20 novel miRNAs in 12 cell lines representing 5 tissues.
- Conservation analysis found 56.7% of novel miRNAs human-specific and 94.4% primate lineage-specific; 2,140 (58.1%) precursor/mature combinations were human-specific, 476 (12.8%) shared across Hominidae, 109 (2.9%) present in mouse, and none in Drosophila or worm.
Methods
- Analyzed 1,323 short RNA-seq samples (100 in-house, 1,223 public) from 13 human cell types; reads were mapped to hg19 with SHRiMP2, processed per sample with miRDeep2, and filtered to mature miRNAs with FDR ≤ 0.05 after removing known miRNAs, mirtrons, tRNAs, snRNAs, and rRNAs.
- Used 43 Ago CLIP-seq samples (10 in-house, 33 public) to assess Argonaute loading, requiring complete coincidence with a CLIP-seq site, observation in at least one sample, and support by five or more reads.
- Validated selected novel miRNAs by stem-loop RT-PCR in 12 cell lines, assessed DICER dependence in MCF7 knockdown data, performed GLSEARCH conservation analysis, seed-based clustering, and RNA22 target prediction.
Limitations
- The paper states that the 43 Ago CLIP-seq samples represent only 3 of the 13 tissue types used for discovery, so not all novel or miRBase miRNAs are expected to be observed; lower Ago support for novel miRNAs is expected given their higher tissue specificity.
- The paper states that the study focused only on canonical Dicer-dependent miRNAs, while bona fide miRNAs can arise through other mechanisms, suggesting an even larger miRNA-ome.
- The paper states that RNA22 target predictions require additional experimental validation; only 20 novel miRNAs were experimentally tested by stem-loop RT-PCR.

A conclusion the paper draws from its own results — it cites no other source for it, so there is none to check. The quote shows it is in the paper.
In the paper
“The sheer magnitude of the identified miRNAs and the very high number of predicted targets for each such miRNA make the experimental validation of the targetome by a single laboratory an intractable proposition.”
§ Analysis of 13 cell types reveals evidence for the expression of numerous novel primate-and tissue-specific microRNAs > Discussion
Tests✓ Asserted: passes✗ Checkable: fails✓ Load-bearing: passes✓ Based: passesProbably not a substantial claim. It may be too vague to check against evidence.
- Rests on an assumption: The remainder of the miRNA sequence can assist in defining the eventual targetome.
The authors state this as an assumption.
The novel miRNAs will affect many pathways and exert their effects on a wide range of targets.
“It is reasonable to assume that these novel miRNAs will affect many pathways and exert their effects on a wide range of targets.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
miRNAs exhibit tissue-specific behavior similar to protein-coding genes.
“Just as protein-coding genes display tissue-specific patterns of expression, it is reasonable to assume that miRNAs would exhibit a similar behavior.”
The paper relies on this without support.
Many more miRNAs are present and can be identified through analysis of additional samples representing more diverse tissue types.
“We reasoned that many more miRNAs are present and can be identified through the analysis of additional samples representing more diverse tissue types.”
The paper relies on this without support.
There is no reason to think that there will not be lineage-specific adaptive evolution in regulatory sequences and regulatory molecules.
“Indeed, there is no reason to think that there will not be lineage-specific adaptive evolution in regulatory sequences and regulatory molecules.”
The paper relies on this without support.
MiRNAs loaded onto the Argonaute complex are capable of interacting with target RNAs.
“MiRNAs exert their function through their association with the Argonaute complex, and, thus, those miRNAs loaded onto Ago are expected to be capable of interacting with target RNAs.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The remainder of the miRNA sequence can assist in defining the eventual targetome.
“Nonetheless, the remainder of the miRNA sequence can also assist in defining the eventual targetome.”
Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The cited source doesn’t support the claim as written.
In the citing paper
“Too many “novel miRNAs” lack clear miRNA features and have only served to further complicate the miRNA field [17, 35, 36].”
From A curated human cellular microRNAome based on 196 primary cell types (2022) · cites this paper as [35]
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“The remaining miRBase microRNAs had modest conservation and were similarly distributed to both the putative novel microRNAs reported here and the 3707 novel microRNAs reported as TJU microRNAs (Fig. 3B; Londin et al. 2015).”
From Toward the human cellular microRNAome (2017) · cites this paper as Londin et al. 2015
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“The PhyloP conservation data (Fig. 3B) show that, beyond the most ideal microRNAs identified in miRGeneDB, there is a lack of genetic conservation, with overlap in a large segment of miRBase microRNAs and the novel microRNAs reported here and in a prior large study (Londin et al. 2015).”
From Toward the human cellular microRNAome (2017) · cites this paper as Londin et al. 2015
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“In comparison to the 3707 novel TJU microRNAs (Londin et al. 2015), only 257 (52%) were shared between both data sets.”

Self-check
Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Drosophila conservation percentage is miscalculated
MinorTable 2 reports six of 3,707 novel combinations as 0.25%; that fraction is about 0.16%.
Reported 0.25 · recomputed 0.161856
“| Drosophila | 6 (0.25%) | 5 (0.3%) | 4 (0.14%) |”
Figure 5 assigns different meanings to its rows
MinorThe caption says each row represents one miRNA, then says each row represents a cell line.
“Stem-loop RT-PCR experiments for 20 newly discovered miRNAs (one miRNA per row).”
“Each row represents a specific cell line.”
Claim of no invertebrate conservation conflicts with Table 2
MinorThe prose says none of the novel combinations were present in Drosophila or worm, but Table 2 lists six and two, respectively.
“none were present in the Drosophila or worm genomes.”
“| Drosophila | 6 (0.25%) | 5 (0.3%) | 4 (0.14%) | | Worm | 2 (0.05%) | 1 (0.06%) | 1 (0.03%) |”
The number of analyzed short RNA samples changes to 1,232
MinorThe paper consistently gives 1,323 as the number of analyzed short RNA-seq samples, but the Ago CLIP-seq discussion calls the analyzed collection 1,232 samples.
“these cells were not represented among the 1,232 short RNA sequence samples that were analyzed.”
“we used it to analyze our collection by processing each of the 1,323 samples separately”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
