项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The sterol response element binding protein (SREBP) transcription factors have been identified as key regulators of genes involved in both cholesterol and lipid homeostasis. Because of the prominence of aberrant cholesterol and lipid homeostasis in the metabolic dysregulation underpinning cardiovascular disease and diabetes, transcriptional regulators of cholesterol/lipids such as SREBPs could potentially represent important therapeutic targets to ameliorate these diseases. Interestingly, small regulatory RNAs termed microRNAs (miRNAs) have recently also been found to represent important regulators of eukaryotic gene expression. One miRNA, miR-122, was shown in recent studies to modulate cholesterol levels in mice and non-human primates. These studies have highlighted the critical role played by miRNAs in mammalian physiology with relevance to human health. Intriguingly, we have obtained preliminary data suggesting that miR-33a/b, miRNAs that are embedded within intronic sequences in both SREBP-1 and -2 genes in humans, regulate cholesterol homeostasis in mammals in coordination with the SREBP host gene products. Our results show that miR-33 miRNAs target the ABCA1 cholesterol transporter for translational repression, resulting in lowered ABCA1 protein levels and decreased cholesterol efflux. As SREBPs promote cholesterol uptake and synthesis through the transactivation of the LDL receptor gene and cholesterol biosynthesis genes, inhibition of cholesterol efflux by miR-33-dependent down-regulation of ABCA1 acts in cooperation with SREBPs to effectively boost intracellular cholesterol levels. We propose a series of in vitro and in vivo studies to further determine the functional role of miR-33 in controlling cholesterol and lipid homeostasis in cooperation with SREBPs. These studies could have important ramifications for our understanding of the integration and coordination of miRNA and transcription factor gene regulation and will facilitate novel therapeutic strategies to increase HDL synthesis and reverse cholesterol transport in patients with cardiovascular disease. The Specific Aims are: 1. To examine the co-expression of miR-33 and its host gene SREBP in cells and tissues. 2. To determine the role of miR-33 in regulation of cholesterol trafficking. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Cholesterol and fatty acids play critical functional roles in many physiological processes in metazoans, such as modulating membrane fluidity, serving as signaling molecules, and providing energy storage in the form of triglycerides. Abnormal cholesterol and lipid levels have been linked to increasingly prevalent diseases, including atherosclerosis, obesity, type II diabetes, and hypertension (all associated with metabolic syndrome), as well as lipodystrophy, Alzheimers Disease, and certain cancers, underscoring the importance of understanding fully how cholesterol and lipid homeostasis are regulated and maintained. We and others have investigated cholesterol and lipids are controlled by gene switches termed sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP). Intriguingly, we have noted the presence of microRNAs (miR- 33a/b) within intronic sequences in the human SREBP-2 and -1 genes, respectively. Preliminary studies yielded the surprising finding that miR-33a/b appear to repress the cholesterol transporter ABCA1, a key regulator of HDL synthesis that is involved in preventing atherosclerosis. As SREBPs promote cholesterol uptake and synthesis, we predict that miR-33-mediated inhibition of ABCA1 and cholesterol efflux acts in cooperation with SREBPs to boost intracellular cholesterol levels. We propose a series of in vitro and in vivo studies that will delineate the role of miR-33 in controlling cholesterol/lipid homeostasis in cooperation with SREBPs. These studies should provide novel therapeutic strategies aimed at increasing HDL synthesis and cholesterol clearance in patients with cardiovascular disease.
描述(申请人提供):固醇反应元件结合蛋白(SREBP)转录因子已被确定为涉及胆固醇和脂质稳态的基因的关键调节因子。由于异常的胆固醇和脂类稳态在心血管疾病和糖尿病的代谢失调中的重要性,胆固醇/脂类的转录调节因子如SREBPs可能成为改善这些疾病的重要治疗靶点。有趣的是,最近也发现被称为microRNAs(MiRNAs)的小调控RNAs代表了真核基因表达的重要调节因子。最近的研究表明,一种名为miR-122的miRNA可以调节老鼠和非人类灵长类动物的胆固醇水平。这些研究强调了miRNAs在哺乳动物生理学中与人类健康相关的关键作用。有趣的是,我们已经获得了初步数据,表明miR-33a/b,即嵌入人类SREBP-1和-2基因内含子序列中的miRNAs,与SREBP宿主基因产物协同调节哺乳动物的胆固醇稳态。我们的结果表明,miR-33miRNAs靶向ABCA1胆固醇转运蛋白进行翻译抑制,导致ABCA1蛋白水平降低和胆固醇外流减少。由于SREBPs通过反式激活低密度脂蛋白受体基因和胆固醇生物合成基因来促进胆固醇的摄取和合成,因此依赖miR-33下调ABCA1来抑制胆固醇外流与SREBPs共同作用,有效地提高细胞内胆固醇水平。我们提出了一系列体外和体内研究,以进一步确定miR-33与SREBPs合作在控制胆固醇和脂质稳态方面的功能作用。这些研究可能对我们理解miRNA和转录因子基因调控的整合和协调具有重要的意义,并将促进心血管疾病患者增加高密度脂蛋白合成和逆转胆固醇运输的新治疗策略。1.检测miR-33及其宿主基因SREBP在细胞和组织中的共表达。2.确定miR-33在胆固醇转运调控中的作用。与公共健康相关:胆固醇和脂肪酸在后生动物的许多生理过程中扮演着关键的功能角色,如调节膜流动性,作为信号分子,以及以甘油三酯的形式提供能量存储。胆固醇和血脂水平异常与日益流行的疾病有关,包括动脉粥样硬化、肥胖症、II型糖尿病和高血压(所有这些疾病都与代谢综合征有关),以及脂肪营养不良、阿尔茨海默氏病和某些癌症,这突显了充分了解胆固醇和脂类平衡是如何调节和维持的重要性。我们和其他人一起研究了胆固醇和血脂是由称为类固醇调节元件结合蛋白(SREBP)的基因开关控制的。有趣的是,我们注意到在人类SREBP-2和-1基因的内含子序列中分别存在microRNAs(miR-33a/b)。初步研究发现令人惊讶的发现,miR-33a/b似乎抑制了胆固醇转运蛋白ABCA1,ABCA1是高密度脂蛋白合成的关键调节因子,参与预防动脉粥样硬化。由于SREBPs促进胆固醇的摄取和合成,我们预测miR-33介导的抑制ABCA1和胆固醇外流的作用与SREBPs协同作用,提高细胞内胆固醇水平。我们提出了一系列的体外和体内研究,将勾勒出miR-33在与SREBPs合作控制胆固醇/脂质稳态中的作用。这些研究应该提供新的治疗策略,旨在增加心血管疾病患者的高密度脂蛋白合成和胆固醇清除。
