Genome-Scale MicroRNA and Small Interfering RNA Screens Identify Small RNA Modulators of TRAIL-Induced Apoptosis Pathway

Ovcharenko, Dmitriy, Kelnar, Kevin, Johnson, Charles, Leng, Nan, Brown, David·2007·Cancer Research

Abstract

Tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) binds to death receptors 4/5 and selectively induces caspase-dependent apoptosis. The RNA interference screening approach has led to the discovery and characterization of several TRAIL pathway components in human cells. Here, libraries of synthetic small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNAs (miRNA) were used to probe the TRAIL pathway. In addition to known genes, siRNAs targeting CDK4, PTGS1, ALG2, CLCN3, IRAK4, and MAP3K8 altered TRAIL-induced caspase-3 activation responses. Introduction of the miRNAs let-7c, mir-10a, mir-144, mir-150, mir-155, and mir-193 also affected the activation of the caspase cascade. Putative targets of these endogenous miRNAs included genes encoding death receptors, caspases, and other apoptosis-related genes. Among the novel genes revealed in the screen, CDK4 was selected for further characterization. CDK4 was the only member of the cyclin-dependent kinase gene family that bore a unique function in apoptotic signal transduction. [Cancer Res 2007;67(22):10782–8]

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.

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.
