Project description:In this in-vitro study, we demonstrated the different effects of exosomes produced by G361 melanoma cells on the functional properties of normal dermal fibroblasts and fibroblasts prepared from skin metastasis of cutaneous malignant melanoma. Both normal and cancer-associated fibroblasts were cultivated in either DMEM with 10% EDS (exosome-depleted serum) (control) or DMEM with 10% EDS + 10 microg/ml G361 exosomes (EXO). The cells were harvested after 24 hours of cultivation.

Project description:We found that cardiac fibroblasts produce and secrete exosomes. miRNA profiling and TaqMan qRT-PCR experiments identified miR-21 expression to be higher in cardiac fibroblasts compared to those of miR-21*, whereas in exosomes miR-21* expression was higher compared to miR-21. The purpose of the study was to validate these findings by miRNA sequencing in cardiac fibroblasts and fibroblasts-derived exosomes. Neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts were cultured in DMEM + 1% exosome-depleted FBS for 48h. Conditioned medium was collected and exosomes were purified by several centrifugation and filtration steps, following ultracentrifugation. Afterwards total RNA from cardiac fibroblasts and exosomes was isolated for miRNA sequencing.

Project description:Background: Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a natural compound with anticancer and anti-angiogenesis activity that is currently under investigation as both a preventative agent and an adjuvant to breast cancer therapy. However, the precise mechanisms of DHA’s anticancer activities are unclear. It is understood that the intercommunication between cancer cells and their microenvironment is essential to tumor angiogenesis. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that are important mediators of intercellular communication and play a role in promoting angiogenesis. However, very little is known about the contribution of breast cancer exosomes to tumor angiogenesis or whether exosomes can mediate DHA’s anticancer action. Results: Exosomes were collected from MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells after treatment with DHA. We observed an increase in exosome secretion and exosome microRNA contents from the DHA-treated cells. The expression of 83 microRNAs in the MCF7 exosomes was altered by DHA (>2-fold). The most abundant exosome microRNAs (let-7a, miR-23b, miR-27a/b, miR-21, let-7, and miR-320b) are known to have anti-cancer and/or anti-angiogenic activity. These microRNAs were also increased by DHA treatment in the exosomes from other breast cancer lines (MDA-MB-231, ZR751 and BT20), but not in exosomes from normal breast cells (MCF10A). When DHA-treated MCF7 cells were co-cultured with or their exosomes were directly applied to endothelial cell cultures, we observed an increase in the expression of these microRNAs in the endothelial cells. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-23b and miR-320b in endothelial cells decreased the expression of their pro-angiogenic target genes (PLAU, AMOTL1, NRP1 and ETS2) and significantly inhibited tube formation by endothelial cells, suggesting that the microRNAs transferred by exosomes mediate DHA’s anti-angiogenic action. These effects could be reversed by knockdown of the Rab GTPase, Rab27A, which controls exosome release. Conclusions: We conclude that DHA alters breast cancer exosome secretion and microRNA contents, which leads to the inhibition of angiogenesis. Our data demonstrate that breast cancer exosome signaling can be targeted to inhibit tumor angiogenesis and provide new insight into DHA’s anticancer action, further supporting its use in cancer therapy.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent antigen (Ag)-presenting cells. Whereas immature DCs down-regulate T cell responses to induce/maintain immunological tolerance, mature DCs promote immunity. To amplify their functions, DCs communicate with neighboring DCs through soluble mediators, cell-to-cell contact and vesicle exchange. Transfer of nanovesicles (<100nm) derived from the endocytic pathway (termed exosomes) represents a novel mechanism of DC-to-DC communication. The facts that exosomes contain exosome-shuttle microRNAs (miRNAs), and DC functions can be regulated by exogenous miRNAs, suggest that DC-to-DC interactions could be mediated through exosome-shuttle miRNAs, an hypothesis that remains to be tested. Importantly, the mechanism of transfer of exosome-shuttle miRNAs from the exosome lumen to the cytosol of target cells is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that DCs release exosomes with different miRNAs depending on the maturation of the DCs. By visualizing spontaneous transfer of exosomes between DCs, we demonstrate that exosomes fused with the target DCs, the latter followed by release of the exosome content into the DC cytosol. Importantly, exosome-shuttle miRNAs are functional, as they repress target mRNAs of acceptor DCs. Our findings unveil a mechanism of transfer of exosome-shuttle miRNAs between DCs and its role as a means of communication and post-transcriptional regulation between DCs. The study has analyzed the microRNA content of 4 samples of immature exosomes, 4 samples of matures exosomes, 2 samples of immature bone-marrow-derived DCs, and 2 samples of mature bone marrow-derived DCs.

Project description:Exosomes are small membraneous vesicles secreted into body fluids by tumors. Tumor exosomes contain intact and functional mRNAs, small RNAs (including miRNAs), and proteins that can alter the cellular environment to favor tumor growth. Further exploration into the molecular profiling of exosomes may increase our understanding of their roles in melanoma progression in vivo, and may have potential application in biomarker studies. In the present study, we used mRNA array profiling to identify thousands of exosomal mRNAs associated with melanoma progression and metastasis. Similarly, miRNA array profiling identified specific miRNAs, such as hsa-miR-31, -185, and -34b, involved in melanoma invasion. Our results indicate that melanoma-derived exosomes have unique gene expression signatures and miRNA profiles that may have important functions in melanoma metastasis and progression. Total RNA from cells and exosomes were isolated using mirVana total RNA isolation kit according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. RNA was quantified using Nanodrop ND-1000. The integrity of these total RNAs was assessed using Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Total high-quality RNA was labelled. The miRNA array profiling was performed by using the Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA Array 1.0. Two different RNA preparations from two cell lines and their exosomes were used, except that only one RNA preparation was used for HEMa-LP exosome miRNA array. Due to the limited number of passages (approximately 10), adequate exosomal RNA and proteins from HEMa-LP cells for multiple analyses was not available.

Project description:Signalling between endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells and stromal cells is crucial for the establishment and maintenance of vascular integrity and involves exosomes, among other signalling pathways. Exosomes are important mediators of intercellular communication in immune signalling, tumour survival, stress responses and angiogenesis. The ability of exosomes to incorporate and transfer mRNAs encoding for ‘acquired’ proteins or miRNAs repressing ‘resident’ mRNA translation suggests that they can influence the physiological behaviour of recipient cells. We here demonstrate that miR-214, a miRNA that controls endothelial cell function and angiogenesis, plays a dominant role in exosome-mediated signalling between endothelial cells. Endothelial cell-derived exosomes stimulated migration and angiogenesis in recipient cells, whereas exosomes from miR-214 depleted endothelial cells failed to stimulate these processes. Exosomes containing miR-214 repressed the expression of Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated in recipient cells, thereby preventing senescence and allowing blood vessel formation. Concordantly, specific reduction of miR-214 content in exosome-producing endothelial cells abolishes the angiogenesis the angiogenesis stimulatory function of the resulting exosomes. Collectively our data indicate that endothelial cells release miR-214 containing exosomes to stimulate angiogenesis through silencing of Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated in neighbouring target cells. Gene expression analysis of HMEC endothelial cells exposed to supernatant containing either HMEC derived exosomes (miR-214 high), HMEC derived exosomes depleted of miR-214 (miR-214 low) or containing no exosomes (no exosomes). Each sample was analysed in duplo.

Project description:Transwell cultures were established in 6-well plates with 0.4 micron inserts. Equal amounts (6x10e4) of BCCs and MSCs were added to the outer and inner wells, respectively, in DMEM with 10% exosome-free FCS. After 24 h, the inner wells with BCCs were discarded. The MSCs were washed with PBS and then incubated with DMEM with 2% exosome-free FCS. At 48 h, exosomes were isolated from the MSC media. The exosomes from triplicate wells were added to duplicate naïve BCCs at 2.5x105/well of 6-well plates.

Project description:Exosomes are vesicles of endocytic origin released by many types of cells into the extracellular environment. In an attempt to further examine the exosome-mediated cellular communication, we show that exosomes from a mouse mast cell line (MC/9), exosomes from primary bone marrow derived mast cells, and exosomes from a human mast cell line (HMC-1) contain RNA but not DNA. Microarray assessments of exosome-derived RNA revealed that these vesicles contain mRNA from approximately 1200 genes, many of which are unique and not present in the cytoplasmic RNA pool in the donor cell. Experiment Overall Design: Exosomes were prepared from the supernatant of MC/9 cells by differential centrifugations and filtration. RNA was isolated from the exosomes and their parental cells using Trizo. The microarray experiments were performed by SweGene (www.swegene.org/) according to Affymetrix microarray DNA chip analysis. The experiment was performed in quadruple samples. ExoRNA1, ExoRNA2, ExoRNA3, and ExoRNA4 for the exosomes samples and Mast_cells1, Mast_cells2, Mast_cells3, and Mast_cells4 for the MC/9 cells.

Project description:How stroma communicates with cancer to influence treatment response is poorly understood. We show that stromal fibroblasts protect breast cancer (BrCa) against radiation and chemotherapy through an exosome-mediated anti-viral pathway and NOTCH3. Stroma increases RAB27B and transfers exosomes to BrCa. RNA within exosomes, comprised largely of non-coding transcripts and transposable elements, stimulates the pattern recognition receptor RIG-I through a 5M-bM-^@M-^Y-triphosphate motif to activate STAT1. BrCa NOTCH3 is activated in parallel by stromal JAG1 and cooperates with STAT1 to enhance transcriptional responses of NOTCH target genes and to expand therapy resistant tumor-initiating cells. Computational modeling using primary human and mouse BrCa supports the interaction of anti-viral/NOTCH3 pathways in controlling NOTCH target genes and treatment resistance, particularly in basal subtype tumors. Gamma secretase inhibitors reverse stromal protection and abrogate radiation resistance in vivo. Thus, stroma orchestrates an intricate cross-talk with BrCa by utilizing exosomes to coax anti-viral signaling that expands therapy resistant cells through druggable pathways.

Project description:Stephen Paget first proposed, in 1889, that organ distribution of metastases is a non-random event, yet metastatic organotropism remains one of the greatest mysteries in cancer biology. Here, we demonstrate that exosomes released by lung-, liver- and brain-tropic tumor cells fuse preferentially with resident cells at their predicted destination, such as fibroblasts and epithelial cells in the lung, Kupffer cells in the liver, and endothelial cells in the brain. We found that exosome homing to organ-specific cell types prepares the pre-metastatic niche and that treatment with exosomes derived from lung tropic models can redirect metastasis to the lung. Proteomic profiling of exosomes revealed distinct integrin expression patterns associated with each organ-specific metastasis. Whereas exosomal integrins α6β4 and α6β1 were associated with lung metastasis, exosomal integrins αvβ5 and αvβ3 were linked with liver and brain metastases, respectively. Targeting α6β4 and αvβ5 integrins decreased exosome uptake and metastasis in the lung and liver, respectively. Importantly, we demonstrate that exosome uptake activates a cell-specific subset of S100 family genes, known to support cell migration and niche formation. Finally, our clinical data indicate that integrin-expression profiles in circulating plasma exosomes from cancer patients could be used to predict organ-specific metastasis.
