Project title: Exploring functional effects of dysregulated microRNA-mediated cellular pathways in malignant germ cell tumours - Dr Matthew Murray.
Malignant germ cell tumours (GCTs) are characterised by microRNA (miRNA) dysregulation. Our studies to date have identified key tumour-suppressor and oncogenic candidate miRNAs warranting further study. We have already targeted/manipulated over-expressed miR-371~373 and miR-302/367 miRNAs and replenished downregulated miRNAs (let-7 and miR-100-5p/125b-5p) in malignant GCT cell lines with phenotypic and genotypic effects. This project will extend those observations in engineered inducible malignant GCT cell lines in vitro which can, e.g., express miR-100-5p/miR-125b-5p upon doxycycline treatment. Combination treatment using miRNA replenishment/targeting approaches with cisplatin will also be investigated, and novel agents targeting identified affected cellular pathways, prior to in vivo studies.
