Project description:Humans and microorganisms, both symbiotic and pathogenic, have evolved means to communicate through the dissemination of biological signals. In addition to small molecules and proteins, mobile small RNAs (sRNAs) have recently emerged as signal molecules that mediate inter-species crosstalk by functional RNA interference (RNAi). However, the trafficking of sRNAs between humans and microorganisms, as well as the resulting biological consequences, remains unexplored. Here, we report that human cells secrete exosomes to deliver sRNAs into bacteria and induce bacterial gene silencing. The unprecedented RNAi in bacteria is accomplished primarily through translational repression without mRNA degradation, for which the participation of human AGO2 proteins co-transferred with sRNAs is essential. Exosome-mediated bacterial RNAi was further applied to fight superbug infection by targeting drug-resistance genes in a mouse model. Our discovery of this unique exosome-mediated sRNA delivery and gene silencing in bacteria paves the way to understanding and manipulating the cross-kingdom communication between human hosts and intestinal microbiota, as well as between humans and pathogenic bacteria.

Project description:Exosomes are molecular entities derived from membrane vesicles of endocytic origin secreted by most cell types. These vesicles are implicated in cell-to-cell communication, deliver proteins and mRNA molecules between cells. Recent studies have shown that exosomes are found in body fluids such as saliva, blood, urine, amniotic fluid, malignant ascites, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, synovial fluids and breast milk. Exosomes secreted through human saliva contain mRNA may potentially be useful for diagnostic purposes. Although the exact protective mechanism of saliva RNA is a topic of debate, the consensus is that the enrichment of mRNAs in these nano-vesicles in one of the features of the biomarker discoveries. Our aim was to determine if exosomes are present in human saliva and to nano-characterize their transcriptomic content. Exosomes were purified by differential ultracentrifugation, identified by immunoelectron microscopy, flow cytometry and western blot using a CD-63 antibody. Atomic force microscopy studies revealed ultra structural analysis of both size and density of exosomes. Microarray analysis revealed the presence of 590 mRNA core transcripts are relatively stable inside the exosomes, which can be of saliva mRNA biomarkers. Exosomal mRNA stability was determined by detergent lyses with treatment of RNase. Under in vitro conditions fluorescent dye labeled saliva exosomes were able to communicate between human oral keratinocytes studied by using fluorescence microscopy. The RNA from saliva exosomes can transfer their genetic information to human oral keratinocytes and alters gene expression in the new location. Together, these results suggest that saliva is involved in mRNA trafficking via exosomes, and provides a mechanism for cargoing passenger mRNAs. Our findings are consistent with proposal that exosomes can shuttle RNAs between cells and mRNA is protected inside these vesicles may be a possible resource for biomarker discovery. Experiment Overall Design: Human saliva exosomes were purified through differential centrifugation followed by RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We were able to obtain normal human subjects saliva which are pooled and subjected to ultracentrifugation. The protocol was approved by UCLA Institutional review board. 1 ml of saliva exosomes were used to extract RNA followed by two rounds of amplification by Actorus Amp kit. The amplified RNA was biotin labled and hybridized with Affymetrix protocol.

Project description:Preparation of exosomes isolated from semen contain a substantial amount of RNA, mostly from 20 to 100 nucleotides in length. We sequenced separately 20-40 and 40-100 nucleotide fractions of RNA from exosomes isolated from semenal fluid from six healthy donors. We found various classes of small non-coding RNA, including mature microRNA and piwi-RNA, as well as abundant Y RNAs and tRNAs present in both full length and fragmented forms. Specific RNAs were consistently present in all donors. For example, fifteen (of ~2,600 known) microRNAs constituted over 80% of mature microRNA in SE. Additionally, tRNA fragments were strongly enriched for 5M-bM-^@M-^Y-ends of 18-19 or 30-34 nucleotides in length.

Project description:Dendritic cells release bioactive exosomes that are involved in immune regulation. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to be implicated in many immunoregulatory mechanisms. However, the roles of lncRNAs in dendritic cells-derived exosomes remain unknown. To investigate the roles of lncRNAs in mature and immature dendritic cells-derived exosomes and find specific lncRNAs with immunoregulatory function, this study showed the expression profiles of lncRNAs in bone marrow dendritic cells-derived exosomes from C57 mice.

Project description:Exosomes play important roles in intercellular communication through the delivery of their cargoes, which include proteins, lipids, and RNAs. Increasingly, multiple studies have reported the association between exosomal small non-coding RNAs and cancer, due to their regulatory functions in gene expression. Hence, analysis of the features of small non-coding RNA expression and their incorporation into exosomes is important for cancer research. Here, we performed deep sequencing to investigate the expression of small RNAs in plasma exosomes from lung adenocarcinoma patients, lung squamous cell carcinoma patients, and healthy controls. We found that 5’ YRNA hY4-derived fragments are significantly upregulated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exosomes, and may serve as a novel class of circulating biomarkers for NSCLC diagnosis. We also identified that the RNY4P7 gene on chromosome 2 may not be a pseudogene, because the corresponding transcript hY4 reverse fragment was detected in exosomes and cells. Further, we demonstrated that a panel of small RNAs, including miR-451a and miR-122-5p, may be selectively sorted into NSCLC exosomes. Overall, our studies have indicated a wider range of biological effects in NSCLC that may be mediated by exosomal small RNAs than previously known.

Project description:Exosomes have emerged as essential extracellular signaling vesicles that can deliver proteins and nucleic acids to cells during normal and disease states. Herein, we studied the effects of exosomes produced by VZV-infected human sensory neurons on cerebrovascular cells. Exosomes were isolated from mock- and VZV-infected sensory neurons and protein and nucleic acid was determined by mass spectrometry and Next-Generation Sequencing. Subsequently, mock- and VZV-derived exosomes were applied to primary human brain vascular adventitial fibroblasts (HBVAFs). Overall, exosomes from VZV-infected sensory neurons impacted the pro-inflammatory phenotype of HBVAF cells. The presence of pathogenic exosomes that could circulate throughout the body provides insight into clinical infections.

Project description:Cancer-derived exosomes can deliver nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids to neighboring or distant cells and subsequently modulate recipient cells. Recently, high levels of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified in cancer-derived exosomes, which provide a favorable microenvironment that contribute to tumorigenesis, tumor metastasis, angiogenesis, chemoresistance, and immune escape. Howerer, the mechanism of the cancer-derived exosomes regulating CD45+EpCAM+ cell apoptosis remains unclear.
