RNA-seq

10.0K
RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Cancer Research
  • Epigenetics

Background:

  • Cancer development involves genetic and epigenetic changes, including RNA modifications (epitranscriptomics).
  • Over 150 RNA modifications exist across mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA, impacting post-transcriptional regulation.
  • Dysregulated RNA modifications contribute to carcinogenesis and cancer cell adaptation to stress.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify RNA modifications enabling cancer cells to adapt to stressful, inhospitable environments.
  • To investigate RNA marks facilitating cancer stem cell (CSC) survival in suspension culture, a model for tumorigenic potential.

Main Methods:

  • Cultured cells under conditions favoring CSC survival.
  • Enriched RNA subtypes (mRNA, rRNA, tRNA) and hydrolyzed RNA.
  • Analyzed nucleosides using LC-MS/MS and bioinformatic analysis.
  • Performed functional validation of identified RNA modifications.

Main Results:

  • The RNA modification landscape changes with cancer cell phenotype under growth constraints.
  • Discovered a conserved epitranscriptomic signature in colorectal cancer cell lines linked to CSC enrichment.
  • Validated the role of specific RNA marks in adaptation to suspension culture.

Conclusions:

  • RNA modifications play a significant role in cancer cell adaptation and survival.
  • The identified epitranscriptomic signature offers insights into CSC biology.
  • This approach is promising for understanding and potentially targeting cancer evolution.
