Project description:Breast milk is a complex liquid that enriched in immunological components and affect the development of the infant immune system. Exosomes, the membranous vesicles of endocytic origin, are ubiquitously in various body fluids which can mediate intercellular communication. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a well-defined group of non-coding small RNAs, in human breast milk are packaged inside exosomes. Here, we present the identification of miRNAs in human breast milk exosomes using deep sequencing technology. We found that the immune-related miRNAs are enriched in breast milk exosomes, and are resistant to the general harsh conditions. Four small RNA libraries in human breast milk exosomes from four healthy women (30 +/- 0.9 years old, primiparity) when the infant were aged at 60 days were sequenced.

Project description:Exosomes are cell membrane-derived endoplasmic reticulum measuring 30 to 120 nm, which are secreted from various cells including cancer cells, and consist of lipids, proteins, mRNAs, and microRNAs (miRNAs). Tumor-derived exosomes are involved in tumor progression by delivering various factors to neighboring cells and promoting intercellular communication. MiRNA is a non-coding RNA consisting of 20-24 nucleotides that binds to the 3'UTR region of the target gene with a complementary nucleotide sequence during gene expression to degrade target mRNA or inhibit translation into target protein. In our study, exosomal miRNA profiling was utilized as a crucial technique to analyze the mechanisms of intercellular communication in tumor malignancy

Project description:To explore how tumor-derived exosomes activate fibroblasts and foster lung metastasis of liver cancer. MiRNAs encapsulated in exosomes are abundant and play an important role in cell-cell communication. Therefore, we hypothesized that tumor-derived exosomal miRNAs mediate fibroblasts activation. To identify the specific miRNAs involved, we conducted microarrays to generate miRNAs profiles of exosomes derived from the four liver cancer cell lines with different migration and invasion abilities. CSQT-2 and HCC-LM3 cells were high metastatic cancer cells, versus to HepG2 and MHCC-97L cells. We divided them into the following groups: CSQT-2 versus HepG2 (with different origins), HCC-LM3 versus MHCC-97L (with the same origin) and compared the up-regulated miRNAs in both two high-metastatic cancer cells-derived exosomes. Then, these up-regulated miRNAs were subjected to validation to define the most important exosomal miRNAs in regulating fibroblast activation and contributing to lung metastasis of liver cancer.

Project description:Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic, chronic degenerative joint disease in China. Exosomes miRNAs, as signaling molecules in intercellular communication, can transfer specific biological martials into target cell to regulate the their function and might participate in the pathogenesis of KBD. We isolated serum and chondrocytes-derived exosomes, miRNA sequencing revealed exosomes miRNA profiles and differentially expressed miRNAs (DE-miRNAs) were identified. The target genes were predicted of known and novel DE-miRNAs with TargetScan 5.0 and miRanda 3.3a database. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed to identify chondrocyte clusters and their gene signatures in KBD. And we performed comparative analysis between the serum and chondrocytes-derived exosomes DE-miRNA target genes and differentially expressed genes of each cell clusters.A total of 20 DE-miRNAs were identified in serum-derived exosomes. In the miRNA expression of chondrocytes-derived exosomes, 53 DE-miRNAs were identified. 16063 predicted targets were identified as the target genes in the serum-derived exosomes, 57316 predicted targets were identified as the target genes in the chondrocytes-derived exosomes. Seven clusters were labelled by cell type according to the expression of previously described markers. 315 common genes were found among serum/chondrocytes-derived exosomes DE-miRNA target genes and DEGs identified by scRNA-seq analysis. We firstly integratly analyzed the serum and chondrocytes exosomes miRNA with single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data of KBD chondrocyte, the results showed that DE-miRNAs in exosomes might play a potential role in regulating genes expression in different KBD chondrocytes clusters by exosomes mediating cell-cell communications functions, which could improve the new diagnosis and treatment methods for KBD.

Project description:Most cancer-related deaths are caused by distant metastases, which are tumour cells that have escaped from a primary tumour and passed into the bloodstream to colonize a new organ. In this context, communication between tumour and stromal cells is essential. Indeed, tumor cells interact with cells in the tumor microenvironment and are able to modify them to their advantage. Both extracellular vesicles (EVs) and exosomes are heterogeneous populations of small vesicles present in the tumor microenvironment and in body fluids that have recently emerged as powerful mediators involved in this communication and their transport in fluids. Tumor cells release large quantities of exosomes containing tumor markers, which can then spread to distant locations.
The exosomes are of endosomal origin. They are composed of proteins, lipids, RNA and DNA, and they circulate in the bloodstream. They can be internalized by specific distant cells and thus deliver a functional message. It has recently been shown that tumor exosomes containing pro-metastatic factors form pre-metastatic niches, before the tumor cells actually arrive, while determining the metastatic organotropism of tumors. These properties are now opening up new avenues of research in tumor biomarkers. In recent years, several studies have highlighted different markers contained specifically in exosomes derived from cancer cells. Consequently, exosomes are considered as potential reservoirs of tumor biomarkers that could be clinically useful for the non-invasive diagnosis of cancer, with the advantage of being performed by liquid biopsy. The study of microRNA (miRNA) is of particular interest. Indeed, miRNAs are small non-coding RNAs (between 21 and 25 nucleotides) involved in the regulation of gene expression and which are frequently deregulated in cancer. Several studies underline that the variation of free miRNAs in the blood is correlated with the progression of the disease, particularly in colon cancer. However, the stability of free miRNAs is controversial. Therefore, exosomes represent a very advantageous means of transporting miRNAs in the blood, as they are able to protect miRNAs from degradation by RNAase.
The hypothesis of the project is that circulating exosomes derived from tumours contain markers including specific miRNAs that could be used as biomarkers of early prognosis (survival and progression), easily measured in blood samples from patients with colon cancer. But other molecules contained in exosomes could also be of interest.

Project description:Pancreatic cancers (PCs) are highly metastatic with poor prognosis, mainly due to delayed detection. We hypothesized that intercellular communication is critical for metastatic progression. Here, we show that PC-derived exosomes induce liver pre-metastatic niche formation in naïve mice and consequently increase liver metastatic burden. Uptake of PC-derived exosomes by Kupffer cells caused transforming growth factor β secretion and upregulation of fibronectin production by hepatic stellate cells. This fibrotic microenvironment enhanced recruitment of bone marrow-derived macrophages. We found that macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) was highly expressed in PC-derived exosomes, and its blockade prevented liver pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis. Compared to patients whose pancreatic tumors did not progress, MIF was markedly higher in exosomes from stage I PC patients who later developed liver metastasis. These findings suggest that exosomal MIF primes the liver for metastasis and may be a prognostic marker for the development of PC liver metastasis.

Project description:Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has high mortality rates that are largely associated with lymph node metastasis. However, the molecular mechanisms that drive OSCC metastasis are unknown. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-bound particles that play a role in intercellular communication and impact cancer development and progression. Thus, profiling EVs would be of great significance to decipher the role of EV cargo in OSCC metastasis. For that purpose, we used a reductionist approach to map the proteomic, miRNA, metabolomic, and lipidomic profiles of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from human primary tumor (SCC-9) cells and matched lymph node metastases (LN1) cells. Distinct omics profiles were associated with the metastatic phenotype, including 670 proteins, 217 miRNAs, 26 metabolites, and 64 lipids differentially abundant between LN1- and SCC-9-derived EVs. A multi-omics integration identified 11 ‘hub proteins’ significantly decreased at the metastatic site compared to primary tumor-derived EVs. We confirmed the validity of these findings with analysis of data from multiple public databases, and found that low abundance of seven hub proteins in metastatic EVs is correlated with reduced survival and tumor aggressiveness in cancer patients. In summary, this multi-omics approach identified proteins transported by EVs that are associated with metastasis, and which may potentially serve as prognostic markers in OSCC.
