Project description:Two distinct extracellular RNA signatures released by a single cell type identified by microarray and next-generation sequencing [miRNA]
Project description:Cells secrete extracellular RNA (exRNA) to their surrounding environment and exRNA has been found in many body fluids such as blood, breast milk and cerebrospinal fluid. However, there are conflicting results regarding the nature of exRNA. Here, we have separated two distinct exRNA profiles released by mast cells, here termed high-density (HD) and low-density (LD) exRNA. The exRNA in both fractions was characterized by microarray and next-generation sequencing. Both exRNA fractions contained mRNA and miRNA, and the mRNAs in the LD exRNA correlated closely with the cellular mRNA, whereas the HD mRNA did not. Furthermore, the HD exRNA was enriched in lincRNA, antisense RNA, vault RNA, snoRNA, and snRNA with little or no evidence of full-length 18S and 28S rRNA. The LD exRNA was enriched in mitochondrial rRNA, mitochondrial tRNA, tRNA, piRNA, Y RNA, and full-length 18S and 28S rRNA. The proteomes of the HD and LD exRNA-containing fractions were determined with LC-MS/MS and analysed with Gene Ontology term finder, which showed that both proteomes were associated with extracellular vesicles. Additionally, the proteins in the HD fractions tended to be associated with the nucleus and ribosomes, whereas the LD fraction proteome tended to be associated with the mitochondrion. We show that the two exRNA signatures released by a single cell type can be separated by floatation on a density gradient. These results show that cells can release multiple types of exRNA with substantial differences in RNA species content. This is important for any future studies determining the nature and function of exRNA released from different cells under different conditions.

The proteomes of the HD and LD exRNA-containing fractions were determined with LC-MS/MS and analysed with Gene Ontology term finder, which showed that both proteomes were associated with the term extracellular vesicles and electron microscopy suggests that at least a part of the exRNA is associated with exosome-like extracellular vesicles. Additionally, the proteins in the HD fractions tended to be associated with the nucleus and ribosomes, whereas the LD fraction proteome tended to be associated with the mitochondrion.

Project description:This study was performed to discover the association between postpartum during negative energy balance and the expression of extracellular vesicle-coupled microRNAs signatures in follicular fluid of large follicle in dairy cows. For this, next-generation sequencing to total RNA miRNA was performed.
Project description:Membrane vesicles released by neoplastic cells into extracellular medium contain potential of carrying arrays of oncogenic molecules including proteins and microRNAs (miRNA). Extracellular (exosome-like) vesicles play a major role in cell-to-cell communication. Thus, the characterization of miRNAs of exosome-like vesicles is imperative in clarifying intercellular signaling as well as identifying disease markers. microarray analysis identified several oncogenic miRNA between the two types vesicles.
Project description:The present dataset contains small non-coding RNA sequencing data from extracellular vesicles steadily released by donor matched, cultured human CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and from extracellular vesicles released within the immunological synapse. The dataset includes RNA sequencing files collected within two independent sequencing facilities. Control samples (S0) are included to correct the sequencing data from noise in the case of EVs released in the synapse (S1).
Project description:Recent advances in next generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized system-based analysis of genome-wide expression, cellular pathways and responses. We performed this study to establish the transcriptomic profiling (RNA-seq) of human prostate cancer cells exposed to extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by stromal cells developing a typical senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in a genotoxic setting.
