The MUC1 oncoprotein is aberrantly overexpressed in human carcinomas and hematologic malignancies. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in the suppression and induction of oncogenesis. The present studies demonstrate that the MUC1 mRNA 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) contains a highly conserved motif for binding of a novel miRNA, miR-1226, that has no known targets. The results show that miR-1226 is expressed in human breast cancer cell lines and non-malignant mammary epithelial cells. We also show that miR-1226 interacts with the MUC1 mRNA 3′UTR and that miR-1226 downregulates endogenous MUC1 protein levels. Consistent with miR-1226-induced downregulation of MUC1 expression, the results demonstrate that miR-1226 induces (i) an increase in reactive oxygen species, (ii) loss of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential, and (iii) a decrease in cell survival. These findings indicate that expression of the MUC1 oncoprotein is downregulated by miR-1226 and that miR-1226 thereby functions as a tumor suppressor by promoting the induction of cell death.
