Assessment of microRNA profiles in small extracellular vesicles isolated from bovine colostrum with different immunoglobulin G concentrations.

ABSTRACT: The consumption of bovine colostrum by newborn calves during the first days of life is essential to ensure the transfer of passive immunity. In addition to critical IgG, colostrum also contains non-IgG biomolecules, including microRNA (miRNA). The present study investigated the profiles of miRNA in small extracellular vesicles (sEV) isolated from bovine colostrum with high (256.5 ± 5.7 mg/mL, mean ± standard deviation, n = 4) and low (62.8 ± 3.6 mg/mL, n = 4) concentrations of IgG. Different combination of sEV extraction methods and bioinformatic pipelines (miRDeep2 and sRNAbench) for miRNA analysis were evaluated. Results showed that miRCURY exosome Cell/Urine/CSF and miRNeasy Mini kits yielded the highest RNA concentration. The miRNA-seq data analysis showed miRDeep2 yielded more compreh
