Summary |
Ginkgo biloba leaf extract (GBE) is used in traditional Chinese medicine as an herbal supplement for improving memory. Exposure of B6C3F1/N mice to GBE in a 2-year National Toxicology Program (NTP) bioassay resulted in a dose-dependent increase in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC). To identify key microRNAs that modulate GBE-induced hepatocarcinogenesis, we compared the global miRNA expression profiles in GBE-exposed HCC (GBE-HCC) and spontaneous HCC (SPNT-HCC) with age-matched vehicle control normal livers (CNTL) from B6C3F1/N mice. The number of differentially altered miRNAs in GBE-HCC and SPNT-HCC were 74 (52 up and 22 down) and 33 (15 up and 18 down), respectively. Among the uniquely differentially altered miRNAs in GBE-HCC,, miR-31 was selected for functional validation. A potential miRNA response element (MRE) in the 3’-untranslated regions (3’-UTR) of Cdk1 mRNA was revealed by in silico analysis and confirmed by luciferase assays. In mouse hepatoma cell line HEPA-1 cells, we demonstrated an inverse correlation between miR-31 and CDK1 protein levels, but no change in Cdk1 mRNA levels, suggesting a post-transcriptional effect. Additionally, miRNA expression analysis in non-tumor liver samples from the 90-day GBE mouse study demonstrated an upregulation of miRs-411, 300, 127, 134, 409-3p, and 433-3p in GBE-exposed group compared to vehicle control group, indicating that some of these miRNAs could serve as potential biomarkers for GBE exposure or hepatocellular carcinogenesis. These data increase our understanding of miRNA-mediated epigenetic regulation of GBE-mediated hepatocellular carcinogenesis in B6C3F1/N mice.

Overall design |
Upon examination of morphology using H & E slide prepared from counterpart of frozen tissues, a subset of selected frozen samples from GBE-HCC, SPNT-HCC (from vehicle control groups) and age-matched normal livers (CNTL) from vehicle control B6C3F1/N mice from the 2-year NTP bioassay were used for miRNA array analysis (n=5/group).
