Project description:Small RNAs are emerging as important molecules for cross-species communication. Thanks to available and affordable sequencing technologies it is now possible to sequence small RNAs (sRNA-Seq) present in samples of interacting organisms. A first step when analyzing sRNA-Seq of two interacting species is to determine which sequences are being produced by which organism. Due to their small size (18-30), small RNAs could easily map to both host and parasite genomes. Here we produced data for Mus musculus intestinal epithelial cells treated with Extracellular Vesicles (EV) produced by the parasitic nematode Heligmosomoides bakeri.

Project description:Introduction: Cell-derived extracellular vesicles ([EVs], i.e., exosomes and microparticles) have been reported to mediate the cardioprotective effects of stem cells. However, a head-to-head comparison of their effects with those of the cells from which they derive has not been reported. Hypothesis: The effects of the EV content of human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived cardiac progenitors may be equivalent to those of the parent cells. Methods: Two series of immunodeficient (nude) mice underwent permanent coronary artery ligation. Three weeks later, those with an echocardiographically-determined LV ejection fraction ⤠50% were randomly allocated to receive transcutaneous echo-guided peri-infarct injections of alpha-MEM media (controls), hESC-derived SSEA-1+ cardiac progenitors (500000 cells in 30 μL), or total EV secreted by those 500000 cells in 48 hours in an equivalent volume. The second series also included sham-operated animals for which the needle was inserted into the myocardium in three places without injection. EVs were collected from the cell-secreted medium by ultracentrifugation and characterized by flow cytometry, and nanosight NTS. Outcomes were assessed after 6 weeks by echocardiography, taking LV end-systolic volume (ESV) as the primary end point. Hearts were processed for the assessment of fibrosis and angiogenesis. Total RNA was extracted from carefully selected animals for gene expression analysis by Affymetrix chip. Only animals with similar VTS at baseline were used for this analysis. All data were collected and analyzed blindly. Results: Cardiac progenitors were successfully generated by exposure of the pluripotent ESC to bone morphogenetic protein-2, purified by anti-CD15 immunomagnetic sorting and then cultured on vitronectin for 48 hours, after which cells or EVs derived from the same cell batch were injected. After 6 weeks in the first series, LVESV [m±SEM] in controls did not significantly differ from the pre-injection value (difference: -2.64 ± 1.54 µL, p=0.12, n= 12). Conversely, in the cell-treated group, LVESV significantly decreased by -4.20 ± 0.96 µL (p=0.0007, n=16). A similar decrease was seen in the EV-treated group: -5.73 ± 1.21 µL (p=0.0003, n=15). Similar patterns were seen for LV end-diastolic volumes: controls (-2.46 ± 1.19 µL, p=NS), cells (-4.48 ± 1.47 µL, p=0.009), EV (-4.29 ± 1.31 µL, p=0.005). For the second series, the VTD of cell- and EV-treated animals remained stable (cell: -1.85 ± 3.27 µL, p=NS, n= 4; EV: +0.05 ± 1.53 µL, p=NS, n = 4), whereas sham- and control-treated animals deteriorated significantly (sham: +2.20 ± 0.35 µL, p = 0.003, n = 5; control: +3.27 ± 0.87 µL, p = 0.03, n = 4). The trend held for VTS, though differences were not significant. Analysis of gene expression data revealed interesting pathways that were more highly expressed in cell- and EV-treated animals than in controls and sham-operated animals. Conclusions: These data support the hypothesis that EVs may be critical mediators of the paracrine effects of cell therapy, and for the sake of streamlining translational processes, deserve to be considered as potential alternatives to stem cell transplantation. Gene expression levels were compared between mouse hearts.

Project description:Beyond forming bone, osteoblasts play pivotal roles in various biological processes, including hematopoiesis and bone metastasis. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have recently been implicated in intercellular communication via transfer of proteins and nucleic acids between cells. Here, we focused on the proteomic characterization of non-mineralizing (NMOBs) and mineralizing (MOBs) human osteoblast (SV-HFOs) EVs and investigated their effect on human prostate cancer (PC3) cells by microscopic, proteomic and gene expression analyses. Proteomic analysis showed that 97% of the proteins were shared among NMOB and MOB EVs, and 30% were novel osteoblast-specific EV proteins. Label-free quantification demonstrated mineralization stage-dependent five-fold enrichment of 59 and 451 EV proteins in NMOBs and MOBs, respectively. Interestingly, bioinformatic analyses of the osteoblast EV proteomes and EV-regulated prostate cancer gene expression profiles showed that they converged on pathways involved in cell survival and growth. This was verified by in vitro proliferation assays where osteoblast EV uptake led to two-fold increase in PC3 cell growth compared to cell-free culture medium-derived vesicle controls. Our findings elucidate the mineralization stage-specific protein content of osteoblast-secreted EVs, show a novel way by which osteoblasts communicate with prostate cancer, and open up innovative avenues for therapeutic intervention. PC3 cells were treated with extracellular vesicles from non-mineralizing and mineralizing SV-HFOs for three different incubation times (4hrs, 24hrs, 48hr)

Project description:We used male C57BL/6 mice (Charles River Laboratories, Wilmington, MA), housed under SPF conditions. Primary adipocytes from the inguinal fat depot at postnatal day (P6, young mice) and postnatal day 56 (P56, adult mice) were isolated by collagenase digestion and separation of cell fractions and subsequently cultured in EV-free media (FBS was EV-depleted).

Project description:Exercise affects the expression of microRNAs (miR/s) and muscle-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs). To evaluate sarcoplasmic and secreted miR expression in human skeletal muscle in response to exercise-mimetic contractile activity, we utilized a three-dimensional tissue-engineered model of human skeletal muscle (“myobundles”). Myobundles were subjected to three culture conditions: no electrical stimulation (CTL), chronic low frequency stimulation (CLFS), or intermittent high frequency stimulation (IHFS) for 7 days. RNA was isolated from myobundles and from extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by myobundles into culture media; miR abundance was analyzed by miRNA-sequencing. We used edgeR and a within-sample design to evaluate differential miR expression and Pearson correlation to evaluate correlations between myobundle and EV populations within treatments with statistical significance set at p<0.05. Numerous miRs were differentially expressed between myobundles and EVs; 116 miRs were differentially expressed within CTL, 3 within CLFS, and 2 within IHFS. Additionally, 25 miRs were significantly correlated (18 in CTL, 5 in CLFS, 2 in IHFS) between myobundles and EVs. Electrical stimulation resulted in differential expression of 8 miRs in myobundles and only 1 miR in EVs. Several KEGG pathways, known to play a role in regulation of skeletal muscle, were enriched, with differentially overrepresented miRs between myobundle and EV populations identified using miEAA. Together, these results demonstrate that in vitro exercise-mimetic contractile activity of human engineered muscle affects both their expression of miRs and number of secreted EVs. These results also identify novel miRs of interest for future studies of the role of exercise in organ-organ interactions in vivo
