Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a heterogeneous group of non-Hodgkin lymphomas with aggressive clinical behavior. We performed comprehensive miRNA profiling in PTCLs and corresponding normal CD4+ T-helper 1/2 and TFH-like polarized subsets to elucidate the role of miRNAs in T-cell lymphomagenesis. We used nCounter (NanoString Inc) for miRNA profiling and validated using Taqman™ qRT-PCR (Applied Biosystem, Inc). Normal CD4+ T-cells were polarized into effector TH-subsets using signature cytokines, and miRNA significance was revealed using functional experiments. Effector TH-subsets showed distinct miRNA expression with corresponding transcription factor expression (e.g. BCL6/miR-19b, −106, −30d,−26b, in IL21-polarized; GATA3/miR-155, miR-337 in TH2-polarized and TBX21/miR-181a,331-3p in TH1-polarized cells). Integration of miRNA signatures suggested activation of TCR and PI3K signaling in IL21-polarized cells, ERK signaling in TH1-polarized and AKT-mTOR signaling in TH2-polarized cells, validated at protein level. In neoplastic counterparts, distinctive miRNAs were identified and confirmed in an independent cohort. Integrative miRNA-mRNA analysis identified a decrease in target transcript abundance leading to deregulation of sphingolipid and Wnt signaling and epigenetic dysregulation in AITL, while ERK, MAPK and cell cycle were identified in PTCL-subsets, and decreased target transcript abundance was validated in an independent cohort. Elevated expression of miRNAs (miR-126-3p, miR-145-5p) in AITL were associated with poor clinical-outcome. In-silico and experimental validation suggest two targets (miR126→ SIPR2 and miR145 → ROCK1) resulting in reduced RhoA-GTPase activity and T-B cell interaction. Unique microRNAs and deregulated oncogenic pathways are associated with PTCL-subtypes. Upregulated miRNA-126-3p and miR-145-5p expression regulate RhoA-GTPase and inhibit T-cell migration, crucial for AITL pathobiology.
