Renal cancer cells secrete exosomal ncRNAs that affect tumor microenvironment
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Cancer cells secrete multiple molecules that affect tumor microenviroment. In our previous study we analyzed the secretory proteome and metabolome of renal cancer cells (PMID: 36604669). Small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) encompass a variable group of oligonucleotides, including miRNAs, piRNAs, and tRNA-derived fragment that can affect the expression of target genes. Here, we aimed to analyzed sncRNAs that are secreted by renal cancer cells and can affect tumor microenvironment. To this end, we: i) collected the conditioned media (CM) from two renal cancer-derived cell lines, Caki-1 and KIJ265T, as well as RPTEC, the control non-tumorous kidney cell line derived from proximal tubules; ii) used the CM for isolation of exosomal total RNA; iii) performed RNAseq to target and analyze the profiles of sncRNAs. We identified multiple miRNAs, piRNAs and tRNAs that were differently secreted by renal cancer cells when compared with non-tumorous proximal tubules. The analysis was followed by qPCR validation and functional analysis to reveal sncRNAs that affect tumor microenvironment.
