1 SUPER SENSITIVE TM mirn in FFPE Next-Gen in situ Tissue Signature Markers Potential tool for haracterization of UP

2 mirn in FFPE mirn Processing MicroRNs (mirns) are endogenous, non-coding RNs known to regulate gene expression by translational repression or RN cleavage. The figure below shows the steps in which the mirn genes are processed into the RN induced silencing complex (RIS). Since mirn has been observed to deregulate during progression of different cancer stages from normal to malignant and metastasis, the expression profile as a result of this deregulation can be exploited as a potential biomarker for cancer characterization.

3 Role of mirn in Gene Regulation mirn regulates gene expression either by blocking the translation or destabilizing the targeted mrn transcripts. mirn as part of RIS complex targets the mrn to inhibit its translation thus brings about the necessary regulatory control. On the other hand mirn- RIS complex binds to 3 -UTRs of mrn to induce mrn degradation or destabilization by decapping and de-adenylation of mrn there by inhibiting translation. The targeted mrn along with the mirn-ris complex is often sequestered to P-bodies for further regulation by degradation or subsequent use. Translation block at initiation step (a) Ribosome Translation repression mirnp/ris (b) mirnp/ris Translation repression Translation block at elongation step Ribosome run-off and aggregation Ribosome mirnp/ris (c) Nascent polypoptide chains protease Polypeptide Proteolysis mirnp/ris P-body Decay mirn Storage mirnp (d) GW182 mirnp/ris cr4:not1 Deadenylation mirn degradation mrn exit and reuse mrn decay Translation regulated by mirn mirn Potential linical pplications arcinoma of unknown primary (UP) accounts for an estimated 3% to 5% of all metastatic cancers and one of the ten most frequent cancer diagnosed worldwide. Recent studies on tissue specific tumor markers indicated that mirn expression is correlated with tumor signature and mirn is frequently regulated in cancer. This fact indicated a differential expression pattern of mirn in normal, neoplastic, pre-malignant and malignant tissues. Therefore, in situ detection of mirn differential expression in different stages of cancer makes the expression profiling a potential tool not only for cancer characterization but also for accurate UP characterization and disease management.

4 High Specificity and Sensitivity Specific Intense Stain The cervical cancer tissues were stained using scramble, mir-146a, and mutant mir-146a probes. Mutant mir-146a probe has 3 different nucleotides compared with normal mir-146a probe.. mir-146a (positive). mutant mir-146a. Scramble Probe mirn Knockout Tissues mir-146a staining was observed only in wild type mouse spleen but not in 146a knockout mouse spleen tissues. lue color is the signal from chromogen IP and P-anti-fluorescein antibody.. mir-146a WT spleen. mir-146a knockout spleen mirn Positive ontrol Probe We provide pre-labeled snrn U6 probe as the positive control, which is a good tool to optimize the sensitvity and performance of the mirn detection protocol initially in particular tissue.. snrn U6
