Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: More and more studies have showed that plasma exosomal miRNAs are biomarkers for disease. The aim of the study were to investigate the miRNA profiling in plasma exosomes of patients with non-segmental vitiligo (NSV) and to find biomarkers in plasma exosomes for patients with NSV. Plasma exosomes and exosomal RNA of 10 NSV patients and 10 health persons were purified by exoRNeasy Serum/Plasma Maxi Kit. The miRNA profiles of the 20 samples were sequenced using HiSeq 2500 (Illumina) and analyzed by Reads Per Million (RPM) values and edgeR algorithm. Some differently expressed miRNAs in plasma exosomes and skin tissues of the two sets were validated by qRT–PCR.Several miRNAs were confirmed by qRT–PCR and showed similar expression patterns between plasma exosomes and skin tissues. Our study depict the miRNAs expression profiles in plasma exosomes of NSV patients and suggest that several miRNAs in plasma exosomes may serve as biomarkers for NSV.

The aim of the study were to investigate the miRNA profiling in plasma exosomes of patients with segmental vitiligo (SV) and to find biomarkers in plasma exosomes for patients with SV. Plasma exosomes and exosomal RNA of 7 SV patients and 8 health persons were purified by exoRNeasy Serum/Plasma Maxi Kit. The miRNA profiles of the 15 samples were sequenced using HiSeq 2500 (Illumina) and analyzed by Reads Per Million (RPM) values and edgeR algorithm. Some differently expressed miRNAs in plasma exosomes and skin tissues of the two sets were validated by qRT–PCR.A total of 85 miRNAs in plasma exosomes showed differential expression between SV patients and health persons, with a |log2(Fold Change)|≥1 and P-value < 0.05. Several miRNAs were confirmed by qRT–PCR and showed similar expression patterns between plasma exosomes and skin tissues. Our study depict the miRNAs expression profiles in plasma exosomes of SV patients and suggest that several miRNAs in plasma exosomes may serve as biomarkers for SV.
Project description:Exosomes are small membrane vesicles of endocytic origin secreted by most cells, and contain a wealthy cargo of protein and RNA species that can modulate recipient cells’ behaviors and may be used as biomarkers for diagnosis of human diseases. They have been found in blood and are valuable sources for biomarkers due to selective cargo loading and resemblance to their parental cells. The goal of this study is to identify circRNA, lncRNA and mRNA profiles in human blood by high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). 1-4 ml plasma or serum were used to extract exosomal RNAs by exoRNeasy Serum/Plasma Maxi kit (Qiagen). The exosomal RNAs were further treated with DNAse I and subjected to ribosome minus low-input RNAseq library preparation. The libraries were sequenced by Illumina Hiseq platform.

Project description:Despite a significant progress in the treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), our ability to identify early patients and predict outcome remains limited. In this study, we aimed to characterize small RNA content of plasma exosomes from ARDS patients in order to identify potential diagnostic biomarkers of the disease. For the first time, we profiled miRNA expression levels in plasma-derived exosomes from ARDS patients (n=8) compared to healthy subjects (n=10) by small RNA-seq. It allowed us to identify 12 exosomal miRNAs differentially expressed in ARDS context (padj<0.05).
Project description:Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) during adolescence significantly jeopardizes both mental and physical well-being. However, the etiology underlying MDD in adolescents remains unclear. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) played significant roles in regulating various biological processes. 10 drug-naïve adolescents with MDD patients and 10 age, sex matched healthy control were enrolled. Draw whole blood from the cubital vein from participants, plasma was centrifuged at 3500rpm 10min. An exoRNeasy Midi and Maxi Kits were used to isolate the plasma exosome and extract exosomal RNA per the manufacturer’s instruction. Microarray technology was used to detect lncRNAs and mRNAs. Bioinformatics analysis was applied to explore function of differential expression genes and screen candidate genes.

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is difficult to diagnose under complex clinical conditions. Exosomal miRNAs have emerged as promising disease biomarkers. We aim to investigate the potential of exosomal miRNAs to assist with TB clinical diagnosis. In the present research, we used the Affymetrix Genechip miRNA 4.0 Array to investgate the profiles of differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) in the exosomes of peripheral blood plasma. As a result, exosomal miRNA profiling yielded a total of 102 DEMs (98 with up-expression and 4 with down-expression) between the TB (pulmonary tuberculosis and tuberculosis meningitis) patients and controls.
