Project description:In this study, we developed Gastrodia elata (G. elata)-derived extracellular vesicles (GE-EVs) to achieve functional rescue of the stressed mammalian heart. Using RBM24 phosphorylation-deficient (S181A, A/A) mice, we demonstrated that GE-EVs have a profound cross-species rescue effect on mitochondria. GE-EVs therapy restores mitochondrial integrity and ATP synthesis through mitochondrial quality control, thereby reversing myocardial hypoxia and attenuating ROS production.

Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by devastating and progressive lung parenchymal fibrosis with poor prognosis. An aberrant recapitulation of lung developmental genes including transforming growth factor (TGF)-β and WNT has been widely implicated in the abnormal wound healing process following repetitive alveolar epithelial injury during IPF pathogenesis. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) including exosomes and microvesicles have been shown to carry various bioactive molecules and are involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Here, we demonstrate that human bronchial epithelial cell-derived EVs (HBEC EVs) inhibited TGF-β-induced both myofibroblast differentiation and lung epithelial cellular senescence through attenuating WNT signaling. To ask how HBEC-EVs inhibited TGF-β-induced both myofibroblast differentiation and lung epithelial cellular senescence through attenuating WNT signaling, miRNA RNA-seq of HBEC-EVs was performed.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia. Extracellular amyloid β (Aβ) plaques and intracellular Tau-containing neurofibrillary tangles are major AD lesions that identify Alzheimer’s pathology and to neuronal loss. However, given that these structures are also seen in cognitively normal persons (healthy controls, HC) and in persons who have mild cognitive impairment (MCI), extensive efforts have been undertaken to identify other diagnostic or prognostic indicators. Here, we characterized the RNA contents of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the plasma of age-matched individuals who are healthy or have MCI or AD. Using RNA sequencing analysis, we found that mitochondrial (mt)RNAs, including MT-ND1 through MT-ND6 and other protein-coding and noncoding mtRNAs, were strikingly elevated in MCI- and AD-associated plasma EVs compared with healthy control EVs. In cultured cells derived from astrocytes, microglia, and neurons, exposure to the toxic conditions in the AD environment (Aβ fibers and H2O2), EVs contained mitochondrial structures (as detected by electron microscopy) as well as mitochondrial RNAs. We propose that in the MCI and AD brain environment, toxicity causing mitochondrial damage results in the packaging of mitochondrial components for export in EVs, and further propose that mitochondrial RNAs in plasma EVs are robust diagnostic and prognostic markers in AD.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-encapsulated particles that vary greatly in size and content. Although both normal and tumor cells produce an array of small EVs (S-EVs), only tumor cells have been found to release a population of atypically large EVs (L-EVs), also known as large oncosomes (LO). Little is known about the cargo of L-EVs, and how it differs from the S-EVs. Given the potential for tumor-derived L-EVs to provide insights into disease mechanisms and course, we performed proteomic analysis of L- and S-EVs derived from three cancer models followed by comparative proteomic and transcriptomic analysis of EVs from the prostate cancer model. 1) We identified both common and model-specific protein signatures for L- and S-EVs. 2) A subset of the proteins enriched in prostate cancer cell-derived L-EVs were also identified in L-EVs isolated from plasma of patients with metastatic prostate cancer. 3) Proteins enriched in L-EV that were also identified at the transcript level were mostly mitochondrial in origin, as confirmed by single vesicle RNA-Seq. Additionally, the L-EV mitochondrial signature was detected in plasma-derived L-EVs and distinguished patients with prostate cancer from cancer-free individuals as well as patients with metastatic prostate cancer from those with localized disease, corroborating the relevance of an integrative multi-analyte approach focused on L-EVs for liquid biopsy.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-enclosed nanoparticles containing specific repertoires of genetic material. In mammals, EVs can mediate the horizontal transfer of various cargos and signaling molecules, notably miRNA and mRNA species. Whether this form of intercellular communication prevails in other metazoans remains unclear. Here, we report the first parallel comparative morphologic and transcriptomic characterization of EVs from Drosophila and human cellular models. Electronic microscopy revealed that Drosophila, like human cells release exosome-like EVs with diameter ranging from 30 to 200 nm, which contain complex populations of transcripts. RNA-seq identified abundant ribosomal RNA pseudogenes and retrotransposons in human and Drosophila EVs. Vault RNAs and Y RNAs abounded in human samples, whereas small nucleolar RNAs involved in pseudouridylation were most prevalent in Drosophila EVs. Numerous mRNAs were identified, largely consisting of exonic sequences displaying full-length read coverage and enriched for translation and electronic transport chain functions. By analogy with human systems, these extensive similarities suggest that EVs could also enable RNA-mediated intercellular communication in Drosophila. We performed RNA-seq on extracellular vesicles purified from of human and Drosophila cell line cultures. S2R+ and D17 Drosophila EVs were analyzed, along with human A431 and HepG2 EVs. No ribosomal RNA depletion or polyA selection was performed on EV samples. For comparative analyses, we also analyzed total cellular RNA from Drosophila D17 and human HepG2. Ribodepletion was performed on cellular samples.

Project description:Healthy brain function is mediated by several complementary signalling pathways, many of which are driven by extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs are heterogeneous in both size and cargo and are constitutively released from cells into the extracellular milieu. They are subsequently trafficked to recipient cells, whereupon their entry can modify the cellular phenotype. Here, in order to further analyse the mRNA and protein cargo of neuronal EVs, we isolated EVs by size exclusion chromatography from human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons. Electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering revealed that the isolated EVs had a diameter of 30-100 nm. Transcriptomic and proteomics analyses of the EVs and neurons identified key molecules enriched in the EVs involved in cell surface interaction (integrins and collagens), internalisation pathways (clathrin- and caveolin-dependent), downstream signalling pathways (phospholipases, integrin-linked kinase and MAPKs), and long-term impacts on cellular development and maintenance. Overall, we show that key signalling networks and mechanisms are enriched in EVs isolated from human iPSC-derived neurons.

Project description:Background: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are associated with aberrant gene expression and epigenetic mechanisms. In particular, de novo DNA methylation is typically linked to gene silencing, but its role in heart disease remains not fully understood. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are active components in cellular communication for their ability to carry a plethora of signalling biomolecules, thus representing a promising new diagnostic/therapeutic approach in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Indeed, there is the need of novel biomarkers for ACS prediction and timely detection. Purpose: We hypothesized that specific epigenetic signals can be carried by EVs. In this regard, we isolated and characterized circulating EVs from ACS patients and evaluated their potential role to influence DNA methylation in target cells. Methods: Circulating EVs were recovered, by ultracentrifugation, from plasma samples of 19 ACS patients and 50 healthy subjects (HS). Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and western blot (WB) were used to confirm the EVs integrity and purity. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of volunteer donors were treated with both ACS and HS derived EVs and genomic DNA was extracted to perform epigenome wide analysis through Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing. ShinyGO, PANTHER, and STRING tools were interrogated to perform GO and PPI network analyses. Flow Cytometry, qRT-PCR, and WB analysis were also performed to evaluate and validate both intra-vesicular and intra-cellular signals. Results: Plasma ACS-derived EVs showed a significant up-regulation of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) gene expression levels as compared to HS (P<0.001). Specifically, de novo methylation transcripts, as DNMT3A and DNMT3B were significantly increased in plasma ACS-EVs. DNA methylation analysis of PBMCs from volunteer donors treated with HS- and ACS-derived EVs showed that RNF166 and CCND3 genes resulted the most hyper- and hypo-methylated, respectively, after by ACS-EV treatment. In addition, PPI network analysis specifically evidenced the subnetwork with SRC, as a hub gene, connecting it to NOTCH1, FOXO3, CDC42, IKBKG, RXRA, DGKG, known as important genes already involved in the onset of CVDs. Surprising, other novel genes, BAIAP2, SYP, CHL1, and SHB, which were hypomethylated, were found significantly overexpressed in PBMCs (P<0.005), underlying the fundamental modulating properties of EV cargo in atherosclerosis. Conclusions: These findings support the significant role of ACS plasma-derived EVs, inducing de novo DNA methylation signals, and modulating specific signaling pathways in target cells.

Project description:The present studies tested the hypothesis that the elongating ovine conceptus and uterus produces EVs with the potential to mediate conceptus-maternal communication during early pregnancy. In Study One, EVs were purified from uterine luminal fluid (ULF) of day 14 cyclic sheep. The EVs were fluorescently labeled with PKH67 dye and infused into the uterine lumen of pregnant sheep for 6 days using an osmotic pump. On day 14, labeled EVs were observed in the conceptus trophectoderm and uterine epithelia, but not in the uterine stroma or myometrium. In Study Two, day 14 conceptuses were cultured ex vivo for 24 hours and found to release EVs into the culture medium. Isolated EVs from conceptuses were fluorescently labeled with PKH67 and infused into the uterine lumen of cyclic sheep for 6 days using an osmotic pump. On day 14, labeled EVs were observed in the uterine epithelia, but not in the uterine stroma or myometrium. No evidence of EV escape from the uterine lumen was observed by analysis of the ovary and other maternal tissues. Proteomics analysis of the day 14 conceptus-derived EVs identified 231 proteins that were enriched for extracellular space and several protein classes including proteases, protease inhibitors, chaperones and chaperonins. RNA-sequencing of day 14 conceptus-derived EVs detected expression of 512 mRNAs. The top expressed genes were overrepresented in ribosomal functions and components. These studies support the ideas that EVs emanate from both the conceptus trophectoderm and uterine epithelia and are involved in intercellular communication during the establishment of pregnancy. Transcriptional profiles from day 14 conceptus extracellular vesicles isolated from 24 hour conceptus-conditioned culture media (n=3) were generated by sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform.

Project description:EVs contain mitochondria that are transferred to condylar DCs. This action triggers ERK1/2/FoxO1/ autophagy pathway internalization of phagocytosed mitochondria by mitochondrial recipient cells, which subsequently affect fatty acid metabolism in DCs to metabolically reprogram them. Thus, DCs changed from an activation state to a tolerance state. Taken together, our findings suggested that EVs reprogram the states of condylar DCs by transferring functional mitochondria into them and affecting their fatty acid metabolism, which highlights the therapeutic value of EVs for TMJOA.
