Objective: We aimed to explore how macrophage-derived exosomes with low miR-141 expression promote pyroptosis in endothelial cells (ECs). Exosomes from THP-1 cell supernatant were isolated and characterized. The effects of miR-141 mimic/inhibitor on apoptosis, proliferation, and invasion of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) were assessed using flow cytometry, CCK-8, and transwell assays...

Ago2 differentially regulates oncogenic and tumor-suppressive miRNAs in cancer cells. This discrepancy suggests a secondary event regulating Ago2/miRNA action in a context-dependent manner. We show here that a positive charge of Ago2 K212, that is preserved by SIR2-mediated Ago2 deacetylation in cancer cells, is responsible for the direct interaction between Ago2 and Caveolin-1 (CAV1). Through this interaction, CAV1 sequesters Ago2 on the plasma membranes and regulates miRNA-mediated translational repression in a compartment-dependent manner...

Exosomes are emerging mediators of cell-cell communication, which are secreted from cells and may be delivered into recipient cells in cell biological processes. Here, we examined microRNA (miRNA) expression in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells. We performed miRNA sequencing in exosomes and cells of KYSE150 and KYSE450 cell lines. Among these differentially expressed miRNAs, 20 of the miRNAs were detected in cells and exosomes. A heat map indicated that the level of miR-451a was higher in exosomes than in ESCC cells...

Activation of autophagy, a process of cellular stress response, leads to the breakdown of proteins, organelles, and other parts of the cell in lysosomes, and can be linked to several ailments, such as cancer, neurological diseases, and rare hereditary syndromes. Thus, its regulation is very carefully monitored. Transcriptional and post-translational mechanisms domestically or in whole organisms utilized to control the autophagic activity, have been heavily researched. In modern times, microRNAs (miRNAs) are being considered to have a part in post-translational orchestration of the autophagic activity, with miR-21 as one of the best studied miRNAs, it is often more than expressed in cancer cells...

Intestinal inflammation is a common digestive system disease. Milk-derived exosomes can participate in intercellular communication and transport a variety of bioactive components, and the microRNAs (miRNAs) they carry play important roles in a variety of biological processes in the body. At present, the preventive effect and mechanism of action of goat milk exosomes and their derived miRNAs on intestinal inflammation are still unclear. In this study, the protective effect of goat milk exosomes on LPS-induced intestinal inflammation was investigated using mouse intestinal inflammation model and IEC-6 cell inflammation model...

Cancer-associated Fibroblasts (CAFs) exert a tumor-promoting effect in various cancers, including breast cancer. CAFs secrete exosomes containing miRNA and proteins, influencing the tumor microenvironment. In this study, we identified CAF-derived exosomes that transport functional miR-92a from CAFs to tumor cells, thereby intensifying the aggressiveness of breast cancer. CAFs downregulate the expression of G3BP2 in breast cancer cells, and a significant elevation in miR-92a levels in CAF-derived exosomes was observed...

The exosomal pathway is an essential mechanism that regulates the abnormal content of microRNAs (miRNAs) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The directional transport of miRNAs requires the assistance of RNA‑binding proteins (RBPs). The present study found that RBPs participate in the regulation of miRNA content through the exosomal pathway in HCC cells. First, differential protein expression profiles in the serum exosomes of patients with HCC and benign liver disease were detected using mass spectrometry...

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most prominent malignancies that originate in the epithelial cells of the gastric mucosa and is one of the main causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. New circulating biomarkers of exosomal RNA might have great potential for non-invasive early prognosis of GC.
