Transcriptomics of THP-1 EVs released after inflammasome or TLR stimulation

ABSTRACT: Inflammasome-activated cells undergo an inflammatory cell death associated with the release of potent pro-inflammatory cytokines and poorly characterized extracellular vesicles (EVs). Since inflammasome-induced EVs could signal inflammasome pathway activation in patients with chronic inflammation and modulate bystander cell activation, we performed a systems analysis of the RNA content and function of two EV classes. Therefore, PMA-differentiated THP-1 macrophages were either stimulated with inflammasome activators or TLR ligands and subsequently differently sized EVs (10K and SEC EVs) were isolated from the tissue culture supernatant. The RNA contained within EV preparations was extracted and subjected to the Clariom D microarray.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to determine the microRNA (miRNA) content of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from murine mesenchymal stem cells (mMSC), and evaluate reproducibility among distinct EV productions. We also aimed at assessing the effect of freeze-drying on EV miRNA content, by performing sequencing on freeze-dried EVs and calculating statistical difference between unmodified and freeze-dried EVs. Methods: mMSC-derived EVs were obtained from mMSC in culture in reduced serum medium Opti-MEM by differential centrifugation, with a final step at 100,000 g for 110 min at 4°C. EV pellets (freeze-dried (n=3) or not (n=2)) were resuspended in Qiazol lysis buffer and RNA was extracted following RNeasy Micro kit. cDNA libraries for sequencing were prepared using the TruSeq Small RNA Sample Preparation Kit. Amplified cDNA constructs were purified on 6 % PAGE gel and DNA molecules corresponding to 15–50 nucleotide transcripts were excised, eluted from gel, and concentrated. Image analyses and base calling were performed using the HiSeq Control Software and Real-Time Analysis component (Illumina). Before statistical analysis, genes with less than 15 reads (cumulating all the analysed samples) were filtered out. Differentially expressed miRNA were identified using three Bioconductor packages: edgeR, DESeq and DESeq2. Results: Considering miRNAs detected with at least 5 counts (in terms of normalised counts), 339 miRNAs were identified and miRNA content was highly conserved among the two batches tested, with 237 miRNAs out of the 339 present in both batches (70%). Statistical analysis did not evidence statistical difference between unmodified EVs (n=2) and freeze-dried EVs (n=3) (DESeq2, p<0.05). No statistical difference was found using other Bioconductor packages DESeq and edgeR. These results indicated conservation of miRNA content following freeze-drying. Conclusion: mMSC-EV miRNA content was comparable between the two EV productions analysed, indicating reproducibility. Some of the miRNAs identified were consistent with previously published results on MSC-derived EVs. Freeze-drying conserved miRNA content.
