Exosomal miR-135b shed from hypoxic multiple myeloma cells enhances angiogenesis by targeting factor-inhibiting HIF-1.

ABSTRACT: Exosomes are small endosome-derived vesicles containing a wide range of functional proteins, mRNA, and miRNA. Exosomal miRNA from cancer cells helps modulate the microenvironment. In multiple myeloma (MM), the massive proliferation of malignant plasma cells causes hypoxia. To date, the majority of in vitro hypoxia studies of cancer cells have used acute hypoxic exposure (3-24 hours). Thus, we attempted to clarify the role of MM-derived exosomes in hypoxic bone marrow by using MM cells grown continuously in vitro under chronic hypoxia (hypoxia-resistant MM [HR-MM] cells). The HR-MM cells produced more exosomes than the parental cells under normoxia or acute hypoxia conditions, and miR-135b was significantly upregulated in exosomes from HR-MM cells. Exosomal miR-135b directly suppressed its target factor-inhibiting hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (FIH-1) in endothelial cells. Finally, exosomal miR-135b from HR-MM cells enhanced endothelial tube formation under hypoxia via the HIF-FIH signaling pathway. This in vitro HR myeloma cell model will be useful for investigating MM cell-endothelial cell interactions under hypoxic conditions, which may mimic the in vivo bone marrow microenvironment. Although tumor angiogenesis is regulated by various factors, exosomal miR-135b may be a target for controlling MM angiogenesis.

Hypoxic pancreatic cancer derived exosomal miR-30b-5p promotes tumor angiogenesis by inhibiting GJA1 expression.

Project description:Purpose: Most patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have vascular invasion and metastasis, leading to low surgical resection rate and dismal prognosis. Tumor angiogenesis is related to vascular invasion and metastasis. However, anti-angiogenesis therapeutic effects in PDAC are limited. Therefore, it is imperative to explore molecular mechanism of angiogenesis in PDAC. Experimental Design: scRNA-seq data were utilized to delineatetranscriptional profiles of endothelial cells in PDAC. The in vitro and vivo angiogenesis models were used to explore the role of PDAC derived exosomes under hypoxic condition in tumor angiogenesis. Results: Endothelial cells in PDAC had distinct gene expression profiles compared with normal pancreas. The marker genes of endothelial cells in PDAC were enriched for hypoxia and angiogenesis. MiR-30b-5p were significantly enriched in hypoxic PDAC cells derived exosomes, which could be transferred to HUVEC, resulting in the upregulation of miR-30b-5p. Hypoxic PDAC cells derived exosomes could promote tube formation and endothelial cells migration via miR-30b-5p mediated downregulation of gap junction protein GJA1. Moreover, hypoxic PDAC cells derived exosomes increased new microvascular density in vivo. Patients with PDAC had higher levels of total miR-30b-5p and exosomal miR-30b-5p in peripheral blood plasma than healthy subjects. In addition, there were significant correlations for the levels of total miR-30b-5p or exosomal miR-30b-5p between peripheral blood plasma and portal vein plasma. Conclusions: Hypoxic PDAC cells derived exosomal miR-30b-5p promoted angiogenesis by inhibiting GJA1, and miR-30b-5p was a potential diagnostic marker for PDAC.

miR-29cb2 promotes angiogenesis and osteogenesis by inhibiting HIF-3α in bone.

Project description:Coordination between osteogenesis and angiogenesis is required for bone homeostasis. Here, we show that miR-29cb2 is a bone-specific miRNA and plays critical roles on angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling during bone remodeling. Mice with deletion of miR-29cb2 exhibit osteopenic phenotypes and osteoblast impairment, accompanied by pronounced decreases in specific H vessels. The decrease in bone miR-29cb2 was associated with pathological ovariectomy stimuli. Mechanistically, hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-3α, as a target for miR-29cb2, inhibits HIF-1α activity by competitively bonding with HIF-1β. Notably, miR-29cb2 in peripheral blood (PB) nearly is undetectable in sham and significantly increases in ovariectomy mice. Further evaluation from osteoporosis patients demonstrates similar signatures. ROC analysis shows miR-29cb2 in PB has higher sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing osteoporosis when compared with four clinical biomarkers. Collectively, these findings reveal that miR-29cb2 is essential for bone remodeling by inhibiting HIF-3α and elevated bone-specific miR-29cb2 in PB, which may be a promising biomarker for bone loss.

Exosomal miR-1305 in the oncogenic activity of hypoxic multiple myeloma cells: a biomarker for predicting prognosis.

Project description:Background: Exosomes have emerged as important mediators of tumor progression, and a prognostic role for serum exosomal miRNAs has been suggested in multiple myeloma (MM). Given the association of hypoxia with tumor aggressiveness, including cancer stem cell-like phenotypes, we explored exosomal miRNAs from MM cells under hypoxic conditions and analyzed their diverse roles both in promoting oncogenic activity and in predicting prognosis. Methods: The human MM cell line, RPMI 8226, was cultured under hypoxic conditions and their exosome production and exosomal miRNA profiles were compared with those of normoxic parental cells. The survival outcome of myeloma patients was compared using serum levels of exosomal miRNAs, and the effects of exosomal miRNAs on the target genes of MM cells and adjacent immune cells were analyzed. Results: Increased expression of stem cell markers and exosome production were observed in hypoxic MM cells. Exosome miRNA analysis identified a higher expression of miR-1305 in exosomes isolated from hypoxic MM cells than in those of normoxic parental cells. The overall survival of patients with high exosomal miR-1305 was poorer than it was in patients with low exosomal miR-1305. In hypoxic MM cells, an increase of exosomal miR-1305 led to a decrease of cellular miR-1305 and increased expression of the miR-1305 target genes, MDM2, IGF1 and FGF2 resulted in the promotion of oncogenic activity of MM. Exosomal miR-1305 was also transferred from MM cells to macrophages, and miR-1305-transferred macrophages showed tumor-promoting, M2-macrophage phenotypes. Conclusions: Exosome-mediated secretion of miR-1305 in MM cells promoted oncogenic activity of hypoxic MM cells and high serum levels of exosomal miR-1305.

Hypoxic Tumor-Derived Exosomal Long Noncoding RNA UCA1 Promotes Angiogenesis via miR-96-5p/AMOTL2 in Pancreatic Cancer.

Project description:The hypoxic microenvironment, an important feature of solid tumors, promotes tumor cells to release exosomes and enhances tumor angiogenesis. However, the detailed functions of hypoxic exosomes and the mechanisms underlying their effects in pancreatic cancer (PC) remain mysterious. Here, we observed that hypoxic exosomes derived from PC cells promoted cell migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) UCA1, a key factor, was highly expressed in exosomes derived from hypoxic PC cells and could be transferred to HUVECs through the exosomes. In addition, the expression levels of UCA1 in exosomes derived from PC patients' serum were higher than in healthy controls and were associated with poor survival of PC patients. Moreover, hypoxic exosomal UCA1 could promote angiogenesis and tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo. With respect to the functional mechanism, UCA1 acted as a sponge of microRNA (miR)-96-5p, relieving the repressive effects of miR-96-5p on the expression of its target gene AMOTL2. Collectively, these results indicate that hypoxic exosomal UCA1 could promote angiogenesis and tumor growth through the miR-96-5p/AMOTL2/ERK1/2 axis and therefore, serve as a novel target for PC treatment.

Glioma stem cell-derived exosomal miR-944 reduces glioma growth and angiogenesis by inhibiting AKT/ERK signaling.

Project description:In this study, we investigated the regulatory role of exosomal microRNA-944 (miR-944) derived from glioma stem cells (GSCs) in glioma progression and angiogenesis. Bioinformatics analysis showed that miR-944 levels were significantly lower in high-grade gliomas (HGGs) than low-grade gliomas in the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas and The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets. The overall survival rates were significantly shorter for glioma patients expressing low miR-944 levels than high miR-944 levels. GSC-derived exosomal miR-944 significantly decreased in vitro proliferation, migration, and tube formation by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Targetscan and dual luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that miR-944 directly targets the 3'UTR of VEGFC. In vivo mouse studies demonstrated that injection of agomiR-944 directly into tumors 3 weeks after xenografting glioma cells significantly reduced tumor growth and angiogenesis. GSC-derived exosomal miR-944 significantly reduced VEGFC levels and suppressed activation of AKT/ERK signaling pathways in HUVECs and xenograft glioma cell tumors. These findings demonstrate that GSC-derived exosomal miR-944 inhibits glioma growth, progression, and angiogenesis by suppressing VEGFC expression and inhibiting the AKT/ERK signaling pathway.

Exosomal miR-205-5p enhances angiogenesis and nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasis by targeting <i>desmocollin-2</i>.

Project description:The aim of this study was to investigate whether and how exosomal miR-205-5p regulated angiogenesis and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) metastasis. We found that up-regulated serum exosomal miR-205-5p levels were associated with NPC progression and worse overall survival of NPC patients. miR-205-5p over-expression significantly increased tube formation, wound healing, migration and invasion of NPC cells, and lung metastasis of NPC tumors, whereas miR-205-5p inhibition had opposite effects. Exosomal miR-205-5p from NPC cells promoted the migration, tube formation, and microvessel density (MVD) of HUVECs in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, bioinformatics-, luciferase reporter-, and biotinylated miR-205-5p-based pull-down assays indicated that miR-205-5p directly bound to the 3' UTR of desmocollin-2 (DSC2). Exosomal miR-205-5p targeted DSC2 to enhance the EGFR/ERK signaling and MMP2/MMP9 expression, promoting angiogenesis and NPC metastasis, which was abrogated by DSC2 over-expression. Finally, the levels of miR-205-5p transcripts were positively correlated with MVD but negatively with DSC2 expression in NPC tissues, and patients with miR-205high/DSC2low NPC had worse overall survival. In conclusion, exosomal miR-205-5p promotes angiogenesis and NPC metastasis by targeting DSC2 to enhance EGFR/ERK signaling and MMP expression. This exosomal/miR-205-5p/EGFR/ERK axis may be a new therapeutic target for intervention of NPC metastasis.

BMSC-Derived Exosomal miR-29a Promotes Angiogenesis and Osteogenesis.

Project description:Angiogenesis and osteogenesis are tightly coupled during bone modeling and remodeling processes. Here we reported that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosomal miR-29a promotes angiogenesis and osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo. BMSC-derived exosomes (BMSCs-Exos) can be taken up by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and promote the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of HUVECs. MiRNA-29a level was high in BMSCs-Exos and can be transported into HUVECs to regulate angiogenesis. VASH1 was identified as a direct target of miR-29a, mediating the effects of BMSC-derived exosomal miR-29a on angiogenesis. More interestingly, miR29a-loaded exosomes from engineered BMSCs (miR-29a-loaded BMSCs-Exos) showed a robust ability of promoting angiogenesis and osteogenesis in vivo. Taken together, these findings suggest that BMSC-derived exosomal miR-29a regulates angiogenesis and osteogenesis, and miR-29a-loaded BMSCs-Exos may serve as a potential therapeutic target for osteoporosis.

miR-190 Enhances HIF-Dependent Responses to Hypoxia in Drosophila by Inhibiting the Prolyl-4-hydroxylase Fatiga.

Project description:Cellular and systemic responses to low oxygen levels are principally mediated by Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIFs), a family of evolutionary conserved heterodimeric transcription factors, whose alpha- and beta-subunits belong to the bHLH-PAS family. In normoxia, HIF? is hydroxylated by specific prolyl-4-hydroxylases, targeting it for proteasomal degradation, while in hypoxia the activity of these hydroxylases decreases due to low oxygen availability, leading to HIF? accumulation and expression of HIF target genes. To identify microRNAs required for maximal HIF activity, we conducted an overexpression screen in Drosophila melanogaster, evaluating the induction of a HIF transcriptional reporter. miR-190 overexpression enhanced HIF-dependent biological responses, including terminal sprouting of the tracheal system, while in miR-190 loss of function embryos the hypoxic response was impaired. In hypoxic conditions, miR-190 expression was upregulated and required for induction of HIF target genes by directly inhibiting the HIF prolyl-4-hydroxylase Fatiga. Thus, miR-190 is a novel regulator of the hypoxia response that represses the oxygen sensor Fatiga, leading to HIF? stabilization and enhancement of hypoxic responses.

miR-151a enhances Slug dependent angiogenesis.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRs) are small non-coding RNAs, that modulate cognate gene expression either by inducing mRNA degradation or by blocking translation, and play crucial and complex roles in tissue homeostasis and during disease initiation and progression. The sprouting of new blood vessels by angiogenesis is critical in vascular development and homeostasis and aberrant angiogenesis is associated with pathological conditions such as ischemia and cancer. We have previously established that miR-151a functions as an onco-miR in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells by inducing partial EMT and enhancing tumor growth. Here, we identify anti-miR-151a as a molecule that promotes endothelial cell contacts and barrier properties, suggesting that miR-151a regulates cell-cell junctions. We find that induced miR-151a expression enhances endothelial cell motility and angiogenesis and these functions depend on miR-151a-induced Slug levels. Moreover, we show that miR-151a overexpression enhances tumor-associated angiogenesis in 3D vascularized tumor spheroid assays. Finally, we verify that miR-151a is expressed in the vasculature of normal lung and NSCLC tissue. Our results suggest that miR-151a plays multi-faceted roles in the lung, by regulating multiple functions (cell growth, motility, partial EMT and angiogenesis) in distinct cell types.

Serum high expression of miR-214 and miR-135b as novel predictor for myeloma bone disease development and prognosis.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) originates from malignant plasma cells, leading to multiple destructive lytic bone lesions that occur in more than 80% of MM patients. MicroRNAs have been reported to be involved in development of bone lesions in MM. However, the circulating microRNA as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for bone lesions has not been elucidated yet. In this study, we identified differentially expressed miRNAs that are potentially involved in myeloma-related bone disease in serum of MM patients. MiR-214 and miR-135b was shown to be increased in serum of MM patients with bone lesions. Serum level of miR-214 and miR-135b was highly correlated with the severity of lytic bone lesions and demonstrated as a diagnostic tool for identifying bone diseases based on results of a receiver operating characteristic analysis (ROC). In addition, patients with high levels of serum miR-214 had a dismal survival with significantly shortened progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Interestingly, bisphosphonates treatment significantly extended PFS and OS in patients with higher level of miR-214 comparing to patients without bisphosphonates treatment. Taken together, our findings revealed the significance of circulating miR-214 and miR-135b levels in detection of bone disease and in prediction of prognosis of patients with multiple myeloma, suggesting its potential clinical applications. The result of this study also set the foundation for searching more circulating miRNA as biomarker for tumor bone lesions.
