Project description:Background/Aim: We investigated alterations in the expression of serum exosomal miRNAs with the progression of liver fibrosis and evaluated their clinical applicability as biomarkers. Methods: This study prospectively enrolled 71 patients who underwent liver biopsy at an academic hospital in Korea. Exosomes were extracted from serum samples, followed by next-generation sequencing (NGS) of miRNAs and targeted real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. A model was derived to discriminate advanced fibrosis based on miRNA levels and the performance of this model was evaluated. Validation of the effect of miRNA on liver fibrosis in vitro was followed.

A model was derived to discriminate advanced fibrosis based on miRNA levels and the performance of this model was evaluated. Validation of the effect of miRNA on liver fibrosis in vitro was followed. Results: NGS data revealed that exosomal miR-660-5p, miR-125a-5p, and miR-122 expression were changed significantly with the progression of liver fibrosis, of which miR-122 exhibited high read counts enough to be used as a biomarker. The level of exosomal miR-122 decreased as the pathologic fibrosis grade progressed and patients with biopsy-proven advanced fibrosis had significantly lower levels of exosomal miR-122 (P < 0.001) than those without advanced fibrosis. Exosomal miR-122 exhibited a fair performance in discriminating advanced fibrosis especially in combination with fibrosis-4 score and transient elastography. In a subgroup of patients with a non-viral etiology of liver disease, the performance of exosomal miR-122 as a biomarker was greatly improved. Inhibition of miR-122 expression increased the proliferation of the human hepatic stellate cell line, LX-2, and upregulated the expression of various fibrosis related proteins. Conclusion: Exosomal miR-122 may serve as a useful non-invasive biomarker for liver fibrosis, especially in patients with non-viral etiologies of chronic liver disease.

Project description:Bovine mastitis causes changes in the serum exosomal miRNAs expression. Serum samples from healthy dairy cows (n = 7) were compared to those of cows with subclinical (n = 7 ) using small RAN sequencing. Three hundred fifty-five miRNAs (341 known and 14 novel ones) were identified. There were 42 miRNAs up-regulated in serum-derived EVs from cows with subclinical mastitis, including bta-miR-1246, bta-miR-2431-3p, bta-miR-126-3p, bta-miR-29a, etc. The MAPK signaling pathway was the most affected pathway by clinical mastitis. Thus, miRNA alterations in mastitis serum-derived EVs support the potential regulator role of specific miRNAs as exosomal cargo in clinical mastitis physiology.

Project description:Background Atrial fibrosis plays a critical role in the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). Exosome is a promising cell-free therapeutic approach for the treatment of AF. The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanisms underlying exosomes derived from atrial myocytes regulated atrial remodeling and ask whether their manipulation allows for therapeutic modulation of fibrosis potential abnormalities during AF. Methods We isolated exosomes from atrial myocytes and patients serum, microRNA (miRNA) sequencing analyzed the exosomal miRNAs in atrial myocytes-exosomes and patients serum-exosomes. mRNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis corroborate the key gene as direct targets of miR-210-3p. Results The miRNAs sequencing analysis identified that miR-210-3p expression significantly increased in exosomes of tachypacing atrial myocytes and serum of AF patients. In vitro, the analysis showed that miR-210-3p inhibitor reversed tachypacing-induced proliferation and collagen synthesis in atrial fibroblasts. Accordingly, KO miR-210-3p could reduce the incidence of AF and ameliorate atrial fibrosis induced by Ang Ⅱ. The mRNA sequencing analysis and Dual-Luciferase reporter assay proved that glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 1-like (GPD1L) is the potential target gene of miR-210-3p. The functional analysis suggests that GPD1L regulated atrial fibrosis via PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Besides, silencing GPD1L in atrial fibroblasts induced cells proliferation and these effects could be reversed by PI3K inhibitor (LY294002). Conclusion We demonstrate that atrial myocytes-derived exosomal miR-210-3p promoted the proliferation and collagen synthesis via inhibiting GPD1L in atrial fibroblasts. Preventing pathological crosstalk between atrial myocytes and fibroblasts may be as a novel target to improve atrial fibrosis in AF.

Project description:Objective: The expression pattern of exosomal miRNAs derived from parathyroid tumor is still unknown. In the present work, we aimed to examine the differences on microRNA (miRNA) expression, present in serum exosomes, by comparing parathyroid carcinoma (PC) and parathyroid adenoma (PA). Methods: MiRNA expression profile of serum exosomes, derived from 4 PC patients and 4 PA patients, were analyzed by next-generation sequencing technology. The differential expressions of target miRNAs were further verified in both serum exosomes and tissues of PC/PA patients by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Lastly, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to investigate the efficiency of target exosomal miRNAs in distinguishing PC patients from PA controls. Results: Multiple differentially expressed miRNAs of serum exosomes were screened out by sequencing. Based on this screening, hsa-miR-146b-5p (p=0.0846), hsa-miR-27a-5p (p=0.0412), hsa-miR-93-5p (p=0.73), hsa-miR-381-3p (p=0.1239) and hsa-miR-134-5p (p=0.0694) were up-regulated in the serum exosomes of PC patients. These results were validated by qPCR, where the trend on differential miRNA expression was consistent with the sequencing results. Specifically, the expression of exosomal hsa-miR-27a-5p was able to clearly distinguish PC patients from PA controls, and related analysis indicated that the area under the ROC curve was 0.8594 (p=0.0157). Conclusion: Here we present, for the first time, the miRNA expression profile of serum exosomes derived from PC patients. Based on this result, we presently suggest that the exosomal hsa-miR-27a-5p may serve as a putative tumor marker for preoperative identification of PC and PA subjects.

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify and evaluate exosomal miRNAs in serum as early diagnostic markers for gastric cancer (GC). Methods: Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and bioinformatics, we identified candidate serum exosomal miRNA markers for early detection of GC in patients. The candidates were further validated by qRT-PCR in 50 newly recruited early-stage GC patients and matched healthy individuals. Results: NGS revealed that the average mappable reads in the RNA libraries were about 6.5 million per patient. A total of 66 up and 13 down-regulated exosomal miRNAs were found in the screened cohort after removal of log2 transformed read counts <5 and p >0.05. In the validation cohort, by comparing candidate exosomal miRNAs levels in early-stage GC patients and healthy individuals, higher levels of miR-92b-3p, let-7g-5p, miR-146b-5p and miR-9-5p were found to be significantly associated with GC. Diagnostic power of the combined panels of the exosomal miRNAs or the combination of exosomal miRNAs and CEA outperformed that of single exosomal miRNA marker for establishing a diagnosis of early-stage GC. In addition, serum levels of exosomal miR-92b-3p were significantly associated with low adhesion, let-7g-5p and miR-146b-5p were significantly correlated with nerve infiltration, and miR146b-5p was statistically correlated with tumor invasion depth in early-stage GC. Conclusions: Serum exosomal miR-92b-3p, -146b-5p, -9-5p, and let-7g-5p may serve as potential noninvasive biomarkers for early diagnosis of GC. Further validation of these candidate exosomal miRNAs in larger experimental cohorts are required in order to confirm the diagnostic values.

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin Lymphoma with complex clinical symptoms. Currently, the diagnosis of DLBCL depends largely on pathologic analysis of biopsy tissue, which is an invasive procedure and often poses some risk to patients. Exosomal miRNAs have emerged as promising noninvasive biomarkers for detecting tumor or monitoring disease progress. We aim to investigate the potential of circulating exosomal miRNAs to assist with diagnosis of DLBCL.In the present research, we used the miRCURY LNA™ microRNA Array to investgate the profiles of differentially expressed miRNAs in the exosomes of peripheral blood serum. As a result, circulating exosomal miRNA profiling yielded a total of 332 differentially expressed miRNAs (157 with up-expression and 175 with down-expression) between the DLBCL patients and healthy controls.
