Lactation-Related microRNA Expression Profiles of Porcine Breast Milk Exosomes

ABSTRACT: Breast milk is the primary source of nutrition for newborns, and rich in immunological components. microRNAs (miRNAs), a well-defined group of non-coding small RNAs, are present in various body fluids (such as breast milk), which are selectively packaged inside the exosomes, a type of membrane vesicles, secreted by most cell types. These exosomal miRNAs could be actively delivered into recipient cells, and regulate target gene expression and recipient cell function. We present the lactation-related miRNA expression profiles in porcine milk exosomes across entire lactation period in pig industry (newborn to 28 days after birth) using deep sequencing technology. We found that the immune-related miRNAs are presented and enriched in breast milk exosomes, and generally resistant to relatively harsh conditions. Notably, these exosomal miRNAs exhibited the higher abundances in the colostrum (newborn to 3 days after birth) than that in the mature milk (7 to 28 days after birth), as well as in the serum of colostrum-feeding piglets compared with the only mature milk-feeding piglets. These immune-related miRNAs-loaded exosomes in breast milk may be transferred into the infant body via the digestive tract. These observations are prelude to the in-depth investigations of the essential roles of the breast milk in the development of the infant’s immune system.

Exosomal microRNAs in the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) breast milk: the potential maternal regulators for the development of newborn cubs

Project description:Purpose:To present the miRNA expression profiles in giant panda milk exosomes across five lactation stages (0, 3, 7, 15 and 30 days after birth), aiming to provide new information for investigations into the physiological functions of the giant panda milk Methods: Three females were sampled in all, and each individual were sampled over multiple lactations, including 0, 3, 7, 15 and 30 days after delivery. Breast milk samples (5-10 ml) were collected from each stages. Total RNA isolated from individuals in five lactation stages (0, 7, 15 and 30 days after delivery) were pooled in equal quantities for each stage Results: Here, we illustrated the species and expression characteristics of exosome-loaded miRNAs existing in giant panda breast milk during distinct lactation periods, and highlighted the enrichment of immune- and development-related endogenous miRNAs in colostral and mature giant panda milk, which are stable even in certain hash conditions, like low pH and high concentration of RNAase, by the protection of extracellular vesicles.These findings indicate that breast milk may allow dietary intake of maternal miRNAs by infants for the regulation of postnatal development. We also demonstrated that the exogenous plant miRNA from the primary food source of giant panda (bamboo) were detected in the exosomes of giant panda breast milk, which were predicted to be of regulatory role in basic cell metabolism and neuron development. This result suggested that the dietary plant miRNAs were able to be absorbed by host cell and then secreted to body fluids as potential cross-kingdom regulators. Conclusions: Exosomal miRNAs in the giant panda breast milk may be the crucial maternal regulators for the development of intrinsic ‘slink’ newborn cubs.

RNA-seq of breast milk-derived exosomes from type 1 diabetic mothers compared to healthy controls

Project description:The breast milk plays a crucial role in shaping the initial intestinal microbiota and mucosal immunity of the infant. Interestingly, breastfeeding has proven to be protective against the early onset of immune-mediated diseases including type 1 diabetes (T1D). Studies have shown that exosomes from human breast milk (HM) are enriched in immune-modulating miRNAs suggesting that exosomal miRNAs transferred to the infant could play a critical role in the development of the infant’s immune system. In this study, we extracted exosome exosomal microRNAs (exomiRs) from breast milk of type 1 diabetic and healthy lactating mothers, in order to identify any differences in the exomiR content between the two groups

TMT-based quantitative proteomics of exosomes from porcine colostrum and milk

Project description:Colostrum and milk have high nutritional value and provide a complete diet for neonates, along with bioactive substances which modulate various functions such as immune defense. Exosomes are membranous vesicles of endocytic origin, recently been considered as major players in cell-cell communication. The mechanisms by which milk components can prime the infant’s active immunity are not entirely clear, and exosomes are suggested to be essential for the infant’s physiological development. We assessed the exosomal proteome profile from milk samples obtained from 10 healthy sows, at day 0 (colostrum), day 7, and 14 post-partum. Exosomes were isolated by ultracentrifugation coupled with size exclusion chromatography, and were characterized by nanoparticle tracking analysis, transmission electron microscopy and Western blotting for exosome markers. Isolated exosomes were in-gel digested and after TMT-labelling of the peptides, they were subjected to LC-MS/MS. Quantitative proteomics analysis revealed different proteome profiles for colostrum exosomes and milk exosomes, and functional analysis highlighted pathways related to immune response, cellular development, and regulation of cellular processes. This study endorses the importance of exosomes as active biocomponents of milk and provides knowledge for future studies exploring their role in regulation of immunity and growth of the newborn.

Expression of milk miRNA during the lactation cycle of the marsupial tammar wallaby (Macropus eugenii)

Project description:High throughput sequencing of miRNAs collected from tammar milk at different time points of lactation showed high levels of miRNA secreted in milk and allowed the identification of differentially expressed milk miRNAs during the lactation cycle as putative markers of mammary gland activity and functional candidate signals to assist growth and timed development of the young. Comparative analysis of miRNA distribution in milk and blood serum suggests that milk miRNAs are primarily expressed from mammary gland rather than transferred from maternal circulating blood, likely through a new putative exosomal secretory pathway. 8 profiles were produced. Duplicates of day175

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.

MicroRNA expression profiles of bovine milk exosomes in response to Staphylococcus aureus infection

Project description:Milk is an essential source of nutrients to all mammalian offspring, and is rich in a wide variety of immunological components. Recently reported miRNAs that are present in breast milk and are selectively packaged into the exosomes, a type of membrane vesicles, secreted by most cell types. These exosomal miRNAs could be actively delivered into recipient cells, and play a key role in the regulation of innate and adaptive immunity. In the present study we analyzed the lactation-related miRNA expression profiles in bovine milk exosomes at 2 days post-infection with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) using a deep sequencing. Analyzing over 76.44 million sequencing reads, a total of 720 miRNAs including 303 high-confident miRNA candidates were identified by two different approaches. The top 10 highly expressed miRNAs accounted for approximately 80% of all aligned reads, with the remaining miRNAs showing much lower expression. Bta-miR-101, -142-5p, -183, -2285g-3p, -223 and -99a-5p were significantly differentially regulated in S. aureus infected milk compared to their uninfected controls. Target prediction of the differently expressed miRNAs revealed 219 potential target candidates, and 22 unique target genes identified by David Gene Ontology analysis were significantly related to host immune processes and inflammation. This new knowledge of milk miRNA expression in response to S. aureus infection significantly provides new and comprehensive information on milk miRNA composition in general as well as changes occurring during an infection.

Comparative Study of the Expression Profiles of miRNAs of Milk-Derived Exosomes of Yak and Jeryak

Project description:The Jeryak is the hybrid offspring of yaks and Jersey cattle and exhibit improved milk and meat yields. Biomolecules carried within milk exosomes are important for cell growth, development, immune regulation, and various pathophysiological processes. Previous studies showed that miRNAs regulate mammary gland development, lactation, and milk quality. This study explored the relationship between milk exosomes miRNAs and lactation performance. A comparison of the milk content showed that yak milk was of a better quality compared to Jeryak milk (casein, fat, TS, SNF, lactose). Milk collected in December was superior to that collected in June for both yak and Jeryak, except for lactose concentrations. Exosomes were extracted by density gradient centrifugation and miRNA expression profiles in milk exosomes from three yaks and three Jeryaks collected in June and December were detected by small RNA sequencing. In all, 22, 120, 78, and 62 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were identified in Jun_ JY vs. Jun_ Y (P1: Jeryak in June vs. Yak in June), Jun_ JY vs. Dec_ JY (P2: Jeryak in June vs. Jeryak in December), Dec_ JY vs. Dec_ Y (P3: Jeryak in December vs. Yak in December), and Jun_ Y vs. Dec_ Y (P4: Yak in June vs. Yak in December) groups. These DEMs were enriched in functions and signaling pathways related to lactation performance. In conclusion, these findings are a reference tool to study the molecular basis of lactation performance.
