MicroRNAs, non-coding regulators of gene expression, are known culprits of
thyroid cancer. Using next-generation sequencing, we identified a novel microRNA
gene, encoded within an important thyroid regulator - thyroglobulin, and analyzed
its functionality in the thyroid gland. In vitro and in silico analyses proved
that the novel miR-TG is processed from the precursor, and co-expressed with
thyroglobulin. Both genes are specific for thyroid tissue and downregulated in
papillary thyroid carcinoma by 44% (p?=?0.04) and 48% (p?=?0.001), respectively.
Putative target genes for miR-TG were identified using in silico tools, which
pinpointed MAP4K4, an oncogene upregulated in thyroid cancer. Analysis of
transcriptome by RNA-seq revealed that overexpression of miR-TG in PTC-derived
cell line led to downregulation of several genes, including MAP4K4 (fold change
0,82; p?=?0.036). The finding was confirmed by SQ-PCR (fold change 071;
p?=?0.004). Direct interaction between miR-TG and MAP4K4 was confirmed in the
luciferase assay (p?=?0.0006). Functional studies showed increase proliferation
in K1 cell line transfected with miR-TG. We propose that in normal thyroid miR-TG
plays a fine-tuning effect on the maintenance of MAPK pathway, inhibiting the
expression of miR's target MAP4K4. This regulation is disturbed in cancer due to
downregulation of the novel, thyroglobulin-embedded microRNA, characterized in
this study.
