Exploring the Factors regulating RNA Enrichment in EVs

ABSTRACT: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small particles that are released by cells and mediate cell-cell communication by transferring bioactive molecules such as RNA. RNA cargo of EVs, including coding and non-coding RNAs, can change the behavior of recipient cells, affecting processes including gene expression, proliferation, and apoptosis. CircRNAs are stable and resistant to degradation and have been shown to be enriched in EVs. They play key roles in gene regulation and are also emerging as promising biomarkers for disease diagnosis due to their stability and disease-specific expression. While microRNAs (miRNAs) are the most well studied RNA cargo of EVs, very little is known about the mechanisms of enrichment of circular RNAs (circRNAs) as well as long linear RNAs. Here, we take a comprehensive genome-wide approach to investigate the role of structuredness and shape along with GC%, size, exon count, and coding potential, in the sorting and enrichment of circular and long linear RNAs into EVs. We developed a model using these parameters to predict the likelihood of EV packaging of RNA and it was validated by using single molecule RNA imaging of EV bound RNAs. Furthermore, we found that structuredness could explain the relative enrichment of circRNAs over their linear counterparts. These results were validated on existing public databases of circular and linear RNAs in EVs. By identifying and analyzing these factors, we aim to better understand the complex mechanisms behind EV-mediated RNA transfer and its impact on cell communication in both health and disease. This mechanistic understanding of RNA enrichment in EVs is crucial for engineering EVs with selective RNA cargo.

Identification and characterization of MCF01A circular RNAs [RNA-seq]

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are widespread circular forms of non-coding RNAs with largely unknown function. Because stimulation of mammary cells with the epidermal growth factor (EGF) leads to dynamic changes in the abundance of both coding and non-coding RNA molecules, and culminates in the acquisition of a robust migratory phenotype, this cellular model might disclose functions of circRNAs. Here we show that circRNAs of EGF-stimulated mammary cells are stably expressed, while mRNAs and micro-RNAs change within minutes. In general, the circRNAs we detected are relatively long-lived and weakly expressed. Interestingly, they are almost ubiquitously co-expressed with the corresponding linear transcripts, and the respective, shared promoter regions are more active compared to genes producing linear isoforms only. These findings imply that altered abundance of circRNAs, unlike changes in the levels of other RNAs, might not play critical roles in signaling cascades and downstream transcriptional networks that rapidly commit cells to specific outcomes.

Differential content of circRNA in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and their extracellular vesicles (EVs).

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are an emergent class of non-coding RNAs commonly generated by back-splicing events, resulting in a highly stable RNA structure, devoid of free 5’ and 3’ ends. circRNAs display the main mechanism of action as miRNA sponges, resulting in the modulation of their regulatory activity. Current knowledge suggests that they could play a relevant role in cellular biology and pathophysiology. In this study, for the first time, we detected circRNAs as a new component of the induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EV) cargo. We further compared the circRNA profile of hiPSC-EV with that of their parental cells (hiPSCs).

Profiling of mRNAs, long chain non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs in gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues

Project description:Purpose: To investigate the role and mechanism of mRNAs, long chain non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs in gastric cancer. Methods: RNA-seq of ribosomal RNA-depleted total RNA were performed to screen differential expressed mRNAs, long chain non-coding RNAs between paired gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues.For the linear RNA was digested with 3 U of RNase R per µg of RNA. Results: A total of 83672 mRNAs, 105998 long chain non-coding RNAs, 25441 distinct circRNAs were identified in these samples, and 13929 of these circRNAs were identified as novel circRNAs.

Cytoplasmic DIS3 degrades circular RNAs independently of the exosome

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are frequently generated during splicing. Their physiological roles, however, remain largely elusive. Some specific circRNAs function as microRNA (miRNA) or RNA binding protein (RBP) sponges or encode for proteins and are actively translated. Due to the lack of accessible ends, circRNAs are resistant to exonucleolytic cleavage and thus are more stable than linear RNAs. Nevertheless, circRNAs are most likely turned over by cellular degradation pathways. Here, we used a biochemical purification strategy to find nucleases that could degrade circRNAs. We identified the exosome-associated nuclease DIS3, which contains an endonucleolytic PIN domain and an exonuclease domain. We show that DIS3 can degrade circRNAs independently of the exosome in vitro. Although moderately, RNA-seq reveals that selected circRNAs are stabilized when DIS3 is reduced in vivo. Based on our data, we propose a model, in which cytoplasmic DIS3 contributes to the turnover of circRNAs in human cells.

Caenorhabditis elegans extracellular vesicle

Project description:The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has evolutionarily conserved EV signaling pathways. In this study, we apply a recently published method for high specificity purification of EVs from C. elegans to carry out target-independent proteomic and RNA analysis of EVs from C. elegans.

Distinct non-coding RNA cargo of extracellular vesicles from M1 and M2 human primary macrophages

Project description:Purpose: Macrophages are often classified into M1 ‘classical’ and M2 ‘alternatively-activated’ macrophages. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are biomolecule carriers involved in cell-cell communication. Here, we provide a first insight into the complete small RNA cargo of human macrophage M1/M2 EVs. Methods: Monocyte-derived macrophages were polarised into M1 (GM-CSF+LPS+IFNγ) or M2 (M-CSF+IL-4+IL-13) and EVs isolated by size exclusion chromatography. EVs were characterised by nanoparticle tracking analysis, electron microscopy and ELISA. EV RNA samples were prepared for small RNA sequencing using Qiagen’s GIAseq small RNA Library Prep kit and sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq500, single end 75 bp. Functional enrichment analysis was performed using MIENTURNET, based on validated miR-target interactions from miRTarBase. Results: Many types of small non-coding RNAs were found in EVs from M1/M2 macrophages including miRNAs, isomiRs, tRNA fragments, piRNA, snRNA, snoRNA and yRNA fragments. Distinct differences were observed between M1 and M2 EVs, with higher relative abundance of miRNAs, and lower abundance of tRNA fragments in M1 EVs compared to M2 EVs. MicroRNA-target enrichment analysis identified several gene targets involved in gene expression and metabolic processes. Conclusions: M1 and M2 cells release EVs with distinct tRNA and miRNA cargo, which have the potential to contribute to the unique effect of these cell subsets on their microenvironment.

Identification and characterization of circular RNAs as a new class of putative biomarkers in human blood

Project description:Covalently closed circular RNA molecules (circRNAs) have recently emerged as a class of RNA isoforms with widespread and tissue specific expression across animals, oftentimes independent of the corresponding linear mRNAs. circRNAs are remarkably stable and sometimes highly expressed molecules. Here, we sequenced RNA in human peripheral whole blood to determine the potential of circRNAs as biomarkers in an easily accessible body fluid. We report the reproducible detection of thousands of circRNAs. Importantly, we observed that hundreds of circRNAs are much higher expressed than corresponding linear mRNAs. Thus, circRNA expression in human blood reveals and quantifies the activity of hundreds of coding genes not accessible by classical mRNA specific assays. Our findings suggest that circRNAs could be used as biomarker molecules in standard clinical blood samples. Sequencing of blood RNA from five healthy individuals (biological replicates) plus technical replicate of one sample and detection of circRNAs.
