Project description:Exosomes are nano-sized (30-150 nm), membrane encapsulated vesicles that are released by cells into the extracellular space and function as intercellular signaling vectors through the horizontal transfer of biologic molecules, including microRNA (miRNA). Although secreted by both normal and malignant cells, there is evidence that cancer-derived exosomes enable the tumor to manipulate its microenvironment, contributing to the capacity of the tumor for immune evasion, growth, invasion, and metastatic spread. The purpose of this study was to apply miRNA-sequencing to exosomes isolated from conditioned culture media to comprehensively characterize miRNA secreted in exosomes from 4 distinct head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines and normal oral epithelial cells.

Project description:Cells release nano-sized membrane vesicles that are involved in intercellular communication by transferring biological information between cells. It is generally accepted that cells release at least three types of these extracellular vesicles (EVs): apoptotic bodies, microvesicles and exosomes. Whilst exosomes are assumed to be a homogenous population of EVs, they have a wide range of putative functions. Therefore, we hypothesized that cells release subpopulations of exosomes with distinct molecular compositions and functional properties. Exosomes were isolated from conditioned medium by differential ultracentrifugation. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation of the resulting exosome pellet revealed the presence of two distinct subpopulations, one smaller, slow migrating population (HD-Exo), and one fast migrating, larger population (LD-Exo). Interestingly, the exosome subpopulations were found to have differential effects on gene expression in recipient endothelial cells. In conclusion, we demonstrate that cells release distinct subpopulations of exosomes with unique biophysical properties and molecular compositions that elicit differential effects on recipient cells. Our data supports the heterogeneous nature of exosomes. It also highlights the importance of better discrimination between subpopulations to allow more detailed studies on exosome biology and function, and assist in the development of exosome-based diagnostics and therapeutics.

Project description:Small extracellular vesicles (sEV) are nano-sized (40-150 nm), membrane-encapsulated vesicles that are released by malignant or pathologic and non-pathologic cells into the extracellular space and function as intercellular signaling vectors through the horizontal transfer of biologic molecules, including microRNA (miRNA) and other small non-coding RNA (ncRNA), that can alter the phenotype of recipient cells. sEV are present in essentially all extracellular biofluids, including serum, urine and saliva, and offer a new avenue for discovery and development of novel biomarkers of various disease states and exposures. The objective of this study was to determine the similarities and differences between sEV ncRNA derived from saliva, serum and urine, as well as cell-free ncRNA from serum. Saliva, urine and serum were concomitantly collected from 4 healthy donors, and sEV were isolated from each respective biofluid, along with cfRNA from serum. sEVs were isolated from the respective biofluids via differential ultracentrifugation. Small RNA-sequencing was performed on each sample, and cluster analysis was performed based on ncRNA profiles. While some similarities existed in terms of sEV ncRNA cargo across biofluids, there are also notable differences in ncRNA class and ncRNA secretion, with each sEVs in each biofluid bearing a unique ncRNA profile. We conclude that sEV ncRNA cargo varies according to biofluid, so thus should be carefully selected and interpreted when designing translational or epidemiological studies.

Project description:Exosomes, nano-sized bilayered proteolipids, play multiple roles in intercellular communication. Although many exosomal proteins have been identified, their functional interrelationships and the mechanisms of exosome biogenesis remain unknown. By interrogating proteomic data using systems approaches, we have created a human exosome network, which comprises 1491 interactions between 957 exosomal proteins. Moreover, physically and functionally interconnected protein complexes form functional modules involved in exosome biogenesis and functions. Specifically, we discovered that SRC signaling plays a major role in exosome biogenesis, and confirmed that inhibition of SRC kinase decreased the intracellular biogenesis and cell surface release of exosomes. Our study provides global insights into the cargo-sorting, biogenesis, and pathophysiological roles of these complex extracellular organelles.

Project description:To screen for novel toxicological endpoints of nano-particles, we conducted an in vitro expression profiling study using human lung epithelial cells (A549). To identify effects that are specific to size or chemical origin, we compared gene expression of A549 cells treated with nano-sized and micro-sized particulates of two chemical origins (carbon and silica) to the control (untreated) cells.

Project description:Introduction: Exosomes are nano-sized extracellular vesicles, released from various cells, which can stimulate or repress responses in target cells. We have recently shown that cultured cardiomyocytes release exosomes and that they, in turn, are involved in facilitating events in target cells by alteration of gene expression. We investigated whether external stimuli of the cardiomyocyte might influence the released exosome characteristics. Material and Methods: Exosomes were isolated from media collected from cultured cardiomyocyte (HL-1) cells with or without growth factor treatment (TGF-beta2 and PDGF-BB), with a series of differential centrifugations. The exosomes were characterized with dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Western blot and analysed with Illumina whole genome microarray gene expression. Results: An average size of 50-80 nm in diameter with no difference between treatment groups was found. Analysis of the mRNA content revealed 623 transcripts in the control group, 691 in the TGF-beta2-treated group and 362 in the PDGF-BB-treated group. 235 transcripts were common for all three groups. Conclusion: We conclude that there is a difference in mRNA content between exosomes derived from cultured cardiomyocytes stimulated with growth factors. We also conclude that all exosomes contain a basic package consisting of ribosomal transcripts and mRNAs coding for proteins with functions within the energy supply system. To study if the transcriptional content in exosomes derived from untreated and growth factor-treated cultured cardiomyocytes (HL-1) differ, and if so, can this difference be explained, 4 control (untreated) exosome samples, 4 TFG-beta2-treated cardiomyocyte-derived exosome samples and 4 PDGF-BB-treated cardiomyocyte-derived exosomes were studied.

Project description:The toxicity of silver and zinc oxide nanoparticles is hypothesised to be mediated by dissolved metal ions and cerium dioxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) are hypothesised to induce toxicity specifically by oxidative stress dependant on their surface redox state. To test these hypotheses, RNAseq was applied to characterise the molecular responses of cells to metal nanoparticle and metal ion exposures. The human epithelial lung carcinoma cell line A549 was exposed to different CeO2 NPs with different surface charges, micron-sized and nano-sized silver particles and silver ions, micron-sized and nano-sized zinc oxide particles and zinc ions, or control conditions, for 1 hour, 6 hours and 24 hours. Concentrations were the lower of either EC20 or 128 micrograms/mL. Transcriptional responses were characterised by RNAseq transcriptomics using an Illumina HiSeq2500 .

Project description:Exosomes which are nano-vesicles and released from living cells, have attracted more attention as an important mediator for cell-to-cell communication. Given that obesity often causes insulin resistance, it is significant to test whether exosomes derived from obesity adipose tissue possess any capacity in regulating insulin sensitivity. In this study we purified exosomes from the adipose tissue. Exosomes derived from ob/ob mice (Ob-exosomes) and B6 mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD-exosomes) displayed similar size and molecular maker to those originated from the normal B6 mice (WT-exosomes), but their regulatory role in insulin sensitivity was opposite. Abundant exosomal miRNAs were detected by the Next Generation Sequencing. Ob-exosomes encapsulated the lower levels of miR-141-3p compared to WT-exosomes, furthermore, miR-141-3p can be effectively delivered into AML12 cells accompanied by the absorption of Ob-exosomes and WT-exosomes. But the absorption of miR-141-3p from adipose tissues to AML12 cells could be blocked by GW4869, an inhibitor of exosome biogenesis and release. Importantly, the exosomal miR-141-3p functionally down-regulated its target gene Pten expression in AML12 cells, and the knockdown of miR-141-3p inhibited the insulin response and glucose uptake in AML12 cells, however Ob-exosomes-mediated inhibitory effects on insulin function disappeared after overexpression of miR-141-3p. These data indicate that the absorption of exosomes released from obesity adipose tissue including lower level of miR-141-3p than healthy adipose tissue into hepatocytes can significantly inhibit the insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake. Thus, our study may certify a novel mechanism that the secretion of “harmful” exosomes from obesity adipose tissues cause insulin resistance.
