1 The Role of MicroRNAs in NEC Misty Good, MD Neonatologist, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics Division of Newborn Medicine, Children s Hospital of Pittsburgh Department of Pediatrics, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine September 26, 2016

2 Objectives Review the pathogenesis of NEC. Describe the mechanism by which breast milk is protective against NEC. Discuss the role of micrornas in NEC.

3 Introduction Necrotizing enterocolitis is the leading cause of death from GI disease in the premature infant Etiology remains incompletely understood Premature infant with NEC Intraoperative

4 How does NEC happen? Hypoxia Hackam et al. Clin Dev Immunol

5 Background TLR4 activation within intestinal epithelium leads to mucosal injury Through accelerated enterocyte apoptosis Impaired mucosal proliferation Since TLR4 is important in NEC development, strategies to limit TLR4 signaling may offer a preventative approach

6 Background NEC is up to 6x more common in infants fed formula vs. breast milk The specific protective agent and mechanism mediating protection is unclear

7 Background EGF is involved in intestinal development present in breast milk and amniotic fluid EGF enhances proliferation of epithelial cells and heals damaged mucosa EGF is involved in regulation of cell replication, cell movement and cell survival Harris et al, EGF receptor ligands. Exp Cell Res 2003;284:2-13. Duh et al. EGF regulates early embryonic mouse development in chemically defined organ culture. Pediatr Res 2000;48:

8 Hypothesis We hypothesized that breast milk inhibits TLR4 signaling within the neonatal intestinal epithelium via EGFR activation, and attenuates the severity of experimental NEC.

9 Induction of mouse experimental NEC Neonatal mouse pups Breast fed controls Gavage NEC formula every 3 hours for 12hrs Hypoxia (5% O2, 95% N2) twice daily NEC in 4 days Free air

10 Decreased intestinal EGFR expression is associated with NEC development in mice BF NEC Good et al, PNAS, 2012

11 Decreased intestinal EGFR expression is associated with NEC development in humans Good et al, PNAS, 2012

19 Interim Summary We have shown that breast milk is protective against NEC by inhibiting TLR4 with the activation of EGFR. EGFR signaling protected against TLR4- mediated enterocyte apoptosis and enhanced enterocyte proliferation in NEC. Thus, it is particularly important to study the gene regulation of EGFR in NEC as a therapeutic or preventative target in NEC.

20 MicroRNA Background Noncoding RNA about 22 nucleotides long Functions in RNA silencing and therefore post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression Initially expressed as pri-mirnas in clusters that undergo post-transcriptional processing to produce mature mirnas

21 mirna Background MiRNAs are differentially expressed in the intestine. Implicated in IBD, intestinal inflammation, gut barrier function.

22 Observation: mirnas are known to be differentially expressed in intestinal inflammatory states Hypothesis: mirnas are differentially expressed in premature infants with NEC

23 Methods Univ. of Pittsburgh approved IRB protocol Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria Premature infants admitted to NICU NEC patients with Bell s Stage II or greater Excluded patients with congenital anomalies Samples Intestinal resections: At NEC diagnosis or at stoma closure (Resolved NEC) Serum: At time of NEC diagnosis or age-matched controls

24 NEC is Associated with Differential Expression of mirnas

25 mirna-17~92 Background MiR17~92 cluster made up of mirna-17, 18a, 19a, 19b, 20a, and 92a These mirnas are known to be differentially expressed in intestinal inflammatory states. Components of the mir-17~92 cluster have increased intestinal and serum expression in inflammatory states of IBD.

26 Embryonic small intestine of mir-17~92ko mice display blunted villiform structures Control mir-17~92ko

27 MicroRNAs Previously our lab has shown that EGFR expression is decreased in NEC Protective effects seen in NEC with EGFR activation mirna-17 is predicted to target EGFR Good et al, PNAS, 2012 Betel et al, Nucleic Acids Res 2008 Good et al, Mucosal Immunology, 2015

28 Expression of Intestinal mirna-17 Increased in NEC mir-17 qpcr expression P<0.002 Pompa et al, in preparation

29 Serum mirna-17 is Increased in NEC serum mir-17 qpcr P<0.05 Pompa et al, in preparation

30 Serum MiR-17 is increased in medical and surgical NEC Control Medical NEC Surgical NEC Relative mirna-17 Expression P<0.05 Pompa et al, in preparation

31 Observation: mirna-17 is increased in the intestine and blood of infants with NEC Hypothesis: Infants with increased mirna-17 have increased intestinal barrier dysfunction and decreased cellular proliferation

32 mirna-17 expression is increased in surgical NEC NEC Resolved NEC mir-17 LNA-ISH Pompa et al, in preparation

33 Increased mir-17, decreased proliferation, tight junctions and EGFR in NEC NEC Resolved NEC ZO-1 PCNA DAPI EGFR Pompa et al, in preparation

34 MiR-17 targets EGFR Relative Luciferase (%) 0 Egfr + Tomato Egfr + mir17 Pompa et al, in preparation

35 Conclusions The mirna-17~92 cluster is upregulated in the intestines of infants with NEC mirna-17 is upregulated in the intestine and serum of infants with medical and surgical NEC. MiR-17 targets EGFR mirna-17 may play an important role in the maintenance of the gut barrier in NEC pathogenesis

36 Future Directions Characterize the intestinal cell populations that express mirnas with flow cytometry. Evaluate susceptibility of intestinal specific mirna-17~92ko mice NEC model. Determine the effects of Mir-17~92 cluster on intestinal development in the mouse.

37 Future Directions Neonatal mouse enteroids Determine the effect of overexpressing Mir-17 in neonatal mouse enteroids with and without NEC. Ecad Muc2 Lysozyme DAPI
