    This Article contains an error in Fig. 4. During the preparation of Fig. 4d, the image representing showing E-CADHERIN expression under hypoxia conditions in A2780 cells was inadvertently taken from the image in Supplementary Fig. 15C showing E-CADHERIN expression under hypoxia conditions in SKOV3 cells. The correct version of Fig. 4 is shown below. The error has not been corrected in the PDF or HTML versions of the Article.

    Hypoxia Mediated Downregulation of miRNA Biogenesis Promotes Tumor Progression
    (Nature Publishing Group, 2014-10-29) Rupaimoole, Rajesha; Wu, Sherry Y.; Pradeep, Sunila; Ivan, Cristina; Pecot, Chad V.; Gharpure, Kshipra M.; Nagaraja, Archana S.; Armaiz-Pena, Guillermo N.; McGuire, Michael; Zand, Behrouz; Dalton, Heather J.; Filant, Justyna; Miller, Justin Bottsford; Lu, Chunhua; Sadaoui, Nouara C.; Mangala, Lingegowda S.; Taylor, Morgan; van den Beucken, Twan; Koch, Elizabeth; Rodriguez-Aguayo, Cristian; Huang, Li; Bar-Eli, Menashe; Wouters, Bradly G.; Radovich, Milan; Ivan, Mircea; Calin, George A.; Zhang, Wei; Lopez-Berestein, Gabriel; Sood, Anil K.; Department of Surgery, IU School of Medicine
    Cancer-related deregulation of miRNA biogenesis has been suggested, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we report a previously unrecognized effect of hypoxia in the downregulation of Drosha and Dicer in cancer cells that leads to dysregulation of miRNA biogenesis and increased tumor progression. We show that hypoxia mediated downregulation of Drosha is dependent on ETS1/ELK1 transcription factors. Moreover, mature miRNA array and deep sequencing studies reveal altered miRNA maturation in cells under hypoxic conditions. At a functional level, this phenomenon results in increased cancer progression in vitro and in vivo, and data from patient samples are suggestive of miRNA biogenesis downregulation in hypoxic tumors. Rescue of Drosha by siRNAs targeting ETS1/ELK1 in vivo results in significant tumor regression. These findings provide a new link in the mechanistic understanding of global miRNA downregulation in the tumor microenvironment.
