    Abstract In just over two decades since the discovery of the first microRNA (miRNA), the field of miRNA biology has expanded considerably. Insights into the roles of miRNAs in development and disease, particularly in cancer, have made miRNAs attractive tools and targets for novel therapeutic approaches. Functional studies have confirmed that miRNA dysregulation is causal in many cases of cancer, with miRNAs acting as tumour suppressors or oncogenes (oncomiRs), and miRNA mimics and molecules targeted at miRNAs (antimiRs) have shown promise in preclinical development. Several miRNA-targeted therapeutics have reached clinical development, including a mimic of the tumour suppressor miRNA miR-34, which reached phase I clinical trials for treating cancer, and antimiRs targeted at miR-122, which reached phase II trials for treating hepatitis. In this article, we describe recent advances in our understanding of miRNAs in cancer and in other diseases and provide an overview of current miRNA therapeutics in the clinic. We also discuss the challenge of identifying the most efficacious therapeutic candidates and provide a perspective on achieving safe and targeted delivery of miRNA therapeutics.

    Abstract MicroRNA-34 (miR-34) is one of the major families of tumor suppressor miRNAs often lost in cancers. Delivery of miR-34a mimics to affected tumors as a therapeutic strategy has been tried in pre-clinical studies and in a phase I clinical trial. One approach to increase efficacy and reduce toxicity is to rationally identify drug combinations with small molecules that synergize with miR-34a. In this study we performed a high-throughput screen of a large panel of small molecules with known biological activity and identified ouabain as a candidate small molecule that synergized with miR-34a in killing lung cancer cells. We elucidated autophagy activation as a key mechanism by which miR-34a and ouabain causes increased cytotoxicity in cells. We posit that this combinatorial approach could reduce the active dose of miR-34a needed in vivo to observe tumor shrinkage and potentiate the development of miR-34a combination therapies in the future.

    Abstract Unlabelled: miRNAs are a key component of the noncoding RNA family. The underlying mechanisms involved in the interplay between the tumor microenvironment and cancer cells involve highly dynamic factors such as hypoxia and cell types such as cancer-associated fibroblasts and macrophages. Although miRNA levels are known to be altered in cancer cells, recent evidence suggests a critical role for the tumor microenvironment in regulating miRNA biogenesis, methylation, and transcriptional changes. Here, we discuss the complex protumorigenic symbiotic role between tumor cells, the tumor microenvironment, and miRNA deregulation.
    Significance: miRNAs play a central role in cell signaling and homeostasis. In this article, we provide insights into the regulatory mechanisms involved in the deregulation of miRNAs in cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment and discuss therapeutic intervention strategies to overcome this deregulation.

    Abstract Background: Investigations into the function of non-promoter DNA methylation have yielded new insights into the epigenetic regulation of gene expression. However, integrated genome-wide non-promoter DNA methylation and gene expression analyses across a wide number of tumour types and corresponding normal tissues have not been performed.
    Methods: To investigate the impact of non-promoter DNA methylation on cancer pathogenesis, we performed a large-scale analysis of gene expression and DNA methylation profiles, finding enrichment in the 3'UTR DNA methylation positively correlated with gene expression. Filtering for genes in which 3'UTR DNA methylation strongly correlated with gene expression yielded a list of genes enriched for functions involving T cell activation.
    Findings: The important immune checkpoint gene Havcr2 showed a substantial increase in 3'UTR DNA methylation upon T cell activation and subsequent upregulation of gene expression in mice. Furthermore, this increase in Havcr2 gene expression was abrogated by treatment with decitabine.
    Interpretation: These findings indicate that the 3'UTR is a functionally relevant DNA methylation site. Additionally, we show a potential novel mechanism of HAVCR2 regulation in T cells, providing new insights for modulating immune checkpoint blockade.
