Project description:MiRNA microarray analysis was performed on exosomes secreted by mouse MSC cells under two different conditions of normal oxygen and hypoxia, in order to find out the different miRNAs in exosomes secreted by MSC under two different conditions.
Project description:We recently showed that exosomes from primary AML cells and cell lines have potent regulatory capacity and we hypothesized that leukemia cell exosome trafficking might account for the suppression of residual hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) in the leukemic niche. Here we studied Molm-14 cells in in vitro experiments using purified exosomes under carefully calibrated low-oxygen conditions. This approach revealed the active regulation of stromal- and hematopoietic progenitor cell function. Systematic analysis of AML exosomes identified a panel of differentially enriched hypoxia-responsive miRNAs, including miR-210, -155, and -146a. We cultured cells under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. Exosomes were released from the parental cells and captured. Total RNA was isolated from both exosomes and cells. Please note that the sample numbers (in the titles) do differ from pair identification (i.e. pair ID) as the pair is only in reference to the paired-t test and parental vs. released pairs.
Project description:microRNA profiles of Exosomes from Pooled NPC Patients serum comparing Control Exosomes from Healthy donors serum Two-condition experiment, Exosomes from Pooled Healthy donors serum vs. Exosomes from Pooled NPC Patients serum. Biological replicates: 1 Exosomes from Pooled Healthy donors serum, 1 Exosomes from Pooled NPC Patients serum,
Project description:This study investigated the differences in secreted proteins from cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) cultured under hypoxic and normoxic conditions. Culture supernatants from three CAF cell lines cultured under hypoxia and three CAF cell lines cultured under normoxia were analyzed by shotgun proteomics using LC-MS/MS to identify and quantify differentially expressed proteins.
Project description:Small vesicles, known as exosomes, are secreted from various cell types. Exosomes secreted by mesenchymal stem cells have therapeutic effects against a variety of diseases, and may be able to partially replace stem cell therapies. Previously, we established and characterized human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotype homo (HHH) dental pulp cell (DPC) lines from human wisdom teeth. In this report, we purified the exosomes secreted from HHH-DPCs and evaluated their therapeutic potential in a periodontitis model. The exosomes purified from HHH-DPCs showed homogeneous and spherical membrane structures, and showed low but significant expression of HLA class I molecules. The exosomes further promoted proliferation and migration in DPCs. A comparison of miRNAs revealed that the HHH-DPC exosomes contained higher levels of multiple Let-7 family miRNAs compared to HHH-induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived exosomes. Finally, the HHH-DPC exosomes showed preventive effects in a mouse model of periodontitis induced by lipopolysaccharides (LPS). In summary, HHH-DPC exosomes expressed HLA molecules which may induce an immune response in HLA-mismatched transplantations. However, they successfully stimulated the proliferation and migration of cells and showed suppressive effects on LPS-induced periodontitis. Therefore, HHH-DPC exosomes show great potential for applications in periodontal treatments.
Project description:Hypoxic cancer cells are known to acquire malignance like invasiveness and therapy resistance. In order to identify the candidate genes responsible for the malignant properties of hypoxic cancer cells, gene expression profile of hypoxic cancer cells is investigated herein.
