Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE34737: Comparative analysis of mRNA expression in untreated lymph node stroma cells and upon treatment with exosomes derived from ASMLwt, ASML cd44v knockdown cells. GSE34738: Characterization of exosomes from highly metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma line: ASML and a CD44v kd of ASML based on their miRNA content Refer to individual Series
Project description:Comparing the miRNA profile of exosomes from ASML vs ASML CD44v kd pancreatic adenocarcinoma line revealed that the expression level of 33 from the 40 most abundant miRNA differed significantly between ASMLwt and ASML-CD44vkd exosomes In this study tumor cell exosomes, deemed important for intercellular communication were analysed for their miRNA content. Exosomes from a highly metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line, ASML and from a CD44v kd of ASML were used for RNA preparation using Trizol reagent, and the total RNA was sent to Genomics core facility,EMBL, Heidelberg for miRCURY LNA microRNA Array, v.11.0 - hsa, mmu & rno

Project description:Exososmes, potent intercellular communicators, are supposed to contribute to metastasis formation, which we confirmed for exosomes of the metastatic rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma line BSp73ASML that promote metastatic settlement in lymph nodes and lung of poorly metastatic BSp73ASML cells with a selective CD44v4-v7 (BSp73ASML-CD44vkd) knockdown. To define the molecular pathway(s), whereby exosomes contribute to premetastatic niche preparation, we profiled mRNA miRNA of BSp73ASMLwt and BSp73ASML-CD44vkd- exosomes and evaluated the impact on potential target cells. BSp73ASML exosomes are recovered in the draining lymph node after subcutaneous injection. In vitro, they preferentially bind and are taken-up by lymph node stroma cells (LnStr) and lung fibroblasts (LuFb) that were chosen as exosome targets. BSp73ASMLwt and BSp73ASML-CD44kd exosomes contain a restricted repertoire of mRNA and miRNA, hwere the lattter differe significantly between the two lines and even more pronounced, exosomes derived thereof with a not yet explored dominance of tumor-suppressor miRNA in ASML-CD44kd cells and exosomes. Both, exosomal mRNA and miRNA are recovered in target cells and exosome-uptake is accompanied by significant changes in gene expression. We didn't observe a correlation between exosomal mRNA and changes in target cell mRNA or proteins. Instead transferred miRNA significantly affected target cell mRNA translation as demonstrated for selected, most abundant ASML exosomal miRNA besides others, miR-494 known target MAL (myelin and lymphocytes protein)/cadherin17, and miR-542-3p which targets TRAF/cadherin17. Furthermore, MMP transcription suggested to accompany cadherin17 dwon-regulation was upregulated in miR-494 or miR542-3p transfected or exosome co-cultured LnStr. Taken together, tumor exosomes target in vivo non-transformed cells in premetastatic organs. Exosome uptake induced altered target celll gene expression is strongly promoted by exosomal miRNA where we demonstrate for the first time that exosomes/exosomal miRNA from a metastasizing tumor line can modulate stroma cells from premetastatic organs. Endothelial cells lines were treated with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (AS) derived exosomes or pancreatic adenocarcinoma derived exosomes expressing tetraspanin 8. Total RNA was isolated and used to perform the Agilent gene expression microarrays. In this assay a replicate of endothelial cell lines treated with ASTspan8 were also included. Moreover, total RNA from both base line expression of endothelial cells and rat endothelial fibroblasts were also used to perfrom gene expression microarrays. RNA isolated from Rat endothelial fibroblasts treated with the exosomes derived from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma and exosomes derived from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma expressing tetraspanin8 were individually used to perfrom gene expression microarrays. RNA isolated from exosomes derived from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines expressing tetraspanin were used to peform gene expresiion to see the base line expression. Another replicate were also used. RNA isolated from base line or control of rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma wild type cells and also base line RNA isolated from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells lines where CD44 was knock-down.
Project description:The miRNA profile between different pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells (A818.4, Capan-1) and different colorectal carcinoma cells (SW948, HT-29). The impact of a knockdown (kd) of function-relevant cancer stem cell markers (CD44v6, Tspan8, CD151, claudin7) on the miRNA profile. The kd cell miRNA profiles were compared with the wt cell as well as between the different kd miRNA profiles.
Project description:Purpose: Analysis of exosomal miRNA in plasma of patients with metastatic and non-metastatic pancreatic cancer. To identify exosomes cargo specific miRNAs promoting cancer metastasis. Methods: We divide the plasma samples into five groups according to whether they have metastasis and undergo surgery.The five groups are Health(20),Metastasis Pre-operation and Post-operation (14),Non-metastasis Pre-operation and Post-operation(9).Then we collected the exosomes by ultracentrifugation and extracted the small RNA in each sample.Then, we analyzed the expression changes of miRNA by small RNA sequencing. Result: Different groups have different expression of small RNA. Compared with the non-metastatic group, the expression of miR-92a-3p , miR-148-3p and miR-25-3p increased in the metastatic group. Conclusion:Exosomal miRNA in pancreatic cancer patient derived plasma were analyze using Hiseq2500 sequencing technique. We identified that miR-92a-3p, miR-148-3p and miR-25-3p enriched in metastatic pancreatic cancer patient plasma derived exosomes.

These analyses were important to define joint miRNA that could be of functional relevance and be of potential interest as therapeutic targets.

Project description:Development of melanoma brain metastasis is caused by an interaction between tumor cells and normal cells in the brain microenvironment. miRNAs delivered by exosomes derived from the tumor cells seem to prime the brain microenvironment, prior to extravasation of tumor cells into the brain. We investigated miRNA in exosomes extracted from normal (astrocytes, melanocytes) and metastatic melanoma cells (brain, skin and lymph node metastasis). We have discovered that miR-146a-5p is an important player in brain metastatic development: this miRNA was highly upregulated in exosomes from melanoma brain metastasis cells, compared to normal cells.
Project description:The miRNA profile between EXO from different pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells (A818.4, Capan-1) and different colorectal carcinoma cells (SW948, HT-29). The impact of a knockdown (kd) of function-relevant cancer stem cell markers (CD44v6, Tspan8, CD151, claudin7) on the EXO miRNA profile. The EXO kd cell miRNA profiles were compared with the wt cell EXO as well as between the different kd EXO miRNA profiles. These analyses were important to elaborate joint miRNA in the EXO profile from different cell lines as a starting point to elaborate possible functional activities of EXO including therapeutic translation.
