Abstract
BACKGROUND tRF-RNA-a representative of non-coding RNA (ncRNA)-is a precursor or fragment of mature tRNA and plays a crucial regulatory role in the occurrence and development of cancer. There is currently little research on tRF-RNA as a diagnostic marker in cancer, especially for NSCLC from serum exosomes. METHOD Serum exosomes were successfully extracted from serum; their physical morphology was captured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM); appropriate particle size detection was performed using qNano; surface labeling was verified through western blotting. Serum exosomes i-tRF-AspGTC and tRF-1-SerCGA were selected through gene microarray, and qPCR was used to validate their significance in 242 patients and 201 healthy individuals. The area under the curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic indicators of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). RESULT Compared with 201 healthy individuals, i-tRF-AspGTC and tRF-1-SerCGA were significantly downregulated in 242 NSCLC patients and 95 early-stage patients. For tRF-AspGTC and tRF-1-SerCGA, the predictive diagnostic efficiency rates of AUC were 0.690 and 0.680, respectively, whereas the early diagnostic efficiency rates were 0.656 and 0.688, respectively. The result of combined diagnosis with CEA and CYFRA21-1 was 0.928, and the early diagnostic efficiency was 0.843, which is a very high biological predictive factor for NSCLC. CONCLUSION The expression of serum exosomes i-tRF-AspGTC and tRF-1-SerCGA was significantly downregulated in NSCLC patients. These exosomes could be used as predictive indicators for diagnosis or early diagnosis of NSCLC.

Abstract
Background tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are an emerging class of small noncoding RNAs derived from tRNA cleavage. Summary With the development of high-throughput sequencing, various biological roles of tsRNAs have been gradually revealed, including regulation of mRNA stability, transcription, translation, direct interaction with proteins and as epigenetic factors, etc. Recent studies have shown that tsRNAs are also closely related to renal disease. In clinical acute kidney injury (AKI) patients and preclinical AKI models, the production and differential expression of tsRNAs in renal tissue and plasma were observed. Decreased expression of tsRNAs was also found in urine exosomes from chronic kidney disease patients. Dysregulation of tsRNAs also appears in models of nephrotic syndrome and patients with lupus nephritis. And specific tsRNAs were found in high glucose model in vitro and in serum of diabetic nephropathy patients. In addition, tsRNAs were also differentially expressed in patients with kidney cancer and transplantation. Key Messages In the present review, we have summarized up-to-date works and reviewed the relationship and possible mechanisms between tsRNAs and kidney diseases.

Abstract
tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are non-coding small RNAs produced by specific endonucleases following the processing and splicing of precursor or mature tRNAs upon starvation, oxidative stress, hypoxia, and other adverse conditions. tRNAs are classified into two major categories, tRNA fragments (tRFs) and tRNA-derived stress-induced small RNAs (tiRNAs), based on differences in splice sites. With the development of high-throughput sequencing technologies in recent years, tsRNAs have been found to have important biological functions, including inhibition of apoptosis, epigenetic regulation, cell-cell communication, translation, and regulation of gene expression. Additionally, these molecules have been found to be aberrantly expressed in various diseases and to be involved in several pathological processes. In this article, the classification and nomenclature, biological functions, and potential use of tsRNAs as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in non-neoplastic diseases are reviewed. Although tsRNA research is at its infancy, their potential in the treatment of non-tumor diseases warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Despite considerable progress in our understanding of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pathophysiology, patient diagnosis is often deficient and late, and this has an impact on disease progression. The aim of this study was to analyze non-coding RNA (ncRNA) packaged into exosomes by next-generation sequencing to assess the molecular profile associated with renal damage, one of the most serious complications of SLE, to identify new potential targets to improve disease diagnosis and management using Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis. The plasma exosomes had a specific ncRNA profile associated with lupus nephritis (LN). The three ncRNA types with the highest number of differentially expressed transcripts were microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs). We identified an exosomal 29-ncRNA molecular signature, of which 15 were associated only with LN presence; piRNAs were the most representative, followed by lncRNAs and miRNAs. The transcriptional regulatory network showed a significant role for four lncRNAs (LINC01015, LINC01986, AC087257.1 and AC022596.1) and two miRNAs (miR-16-5p and miR-101-3p) in network organization, targeting critical pathways implicated in inflammation, fibrosis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and actin cytoskeleton. From these, a handful of potential targets, such as transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily binding proteins (activin-A, TGFB receptors, etc.), WNT/β-catenin and fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) have been identified for use as therapeutic targets of renal damage in SLE.

Abstract
IntroductionDespite recent developments in our comprehension of how the gut microbiota and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are related. The mycobiome: which is a small but crucial part of the gut microbiota and is involved in hosts’ homeostasis and physiological processes, remained unexplored in SLE.MethodsWe profiled the gut fungal mycobiota based on internal transcribed spacer region 1 (ITS1) sequencing for the gut microbial DNA from the SLE individuals with lupus nephritis (LN) (n = 23), SLE without LN (n = 26) and healthy controls (n = 14) enrolled in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, The Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School.ResultsThe ITS sequencing generated a total of 4.63 million valid tags which were stratified into 4,488 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and identified about 13 phyla and 262 genera. Patients with SLE were characterized with unique fungal flora feature. The fungal microbiomes of the three groups displayed distinct beta diversity from each other. Compared with HC group, the abundance of fungal dysbiosis was reflected in a higher ratio of opportunistic fungi in SLE or LN group, as well as the loss of Rhizopus and Malassezia. The main principal components of the flora between the SLE and LN group were generally consistent. The relative abundance of Vanrija in the fecal fungal community was higher in LN group, while the relative abundance of Fusarium was higher in SLE group. Moreover, our data revealed superior diagnostic accuracy for SLE with the fungal species (e.g. Candida, Meyerozyma). Correlations between gut fungi and clinical parameters were identified by Spearman’s correlation analysis. Interestingly, Aspergillus in SLE patients was positively correlated with ACR, 24 h proteinuria, proteinuria, anti-dsDNA, ANA, and SLEDAI, while Rhizopus was negatively correlated with lymphocytes and Hb. Finally, we successfully cultured the fungi and identified it as Candida glabrata by microscopic observation and mass spectrometry.DiscussionWe first explored the highly significant gut fungal dysbiosis and ecology in patients with SLE, and demonstrated the applicability of fungal species as SLE diagnostic tools, signifying that the gut fungal mycobiome-host interplay can potentially contribute in disease pathogenesis.

Abstract
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the most severe organ manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Early identification of renal disease in SLE is important. Renal biopsy is currently recognized as the gold standard for diagnosing LN, however, it is invasive and inconvenient for dynamic monitoring. Urine has been considered more promising and valuable than blood in identifying inflamed kidney tissue. Here, we determine whether the signatures of tRNA-derived small noncoding RNA (tsRNA) in urinary exosomes can serve as novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of LN. Methods tsRNA sequencing was performed in exosome extracted from pooled urine of 20 LN patients and 20 SLE without LN, and the top 10 upregulated tsRNAs were screened as candidate markers of LN. The candidate urinary exosomal tsRNAs were primarily elected by TaqMan probe-based quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) in 40 samples (20 LN and 20 SLE without LN) in the training phase. In the validation phase, selected tsRNAs from the training phase were further confirmed in a larger cohort (54 LN patients and 39 SLE without LN). Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy. Results Upregulated levels of tRF3-Ile-AAT-1 and tiRNA5-Lys-CTT-1 in the urinary exosomes were observed in LN compared with SLE without LN (P < 0.0001 and P < 0.001) and healthy controls (P < 0.01 and P < 0.01), with the area under the curve (AUC) of 0.777 (95% CI: 0.681-0.874, sensitivity 79.63%, specificity 66.69%) and 0.715 (95% CI: 0.610-0.820, sensitivity 66.96%, specificity 76.92%) for discriminating LN from SLE without LN patients. SLE patients with mild activity and moderate to severe activity had higher levels of urinary exosome derived tRF3-Ile AAT-1 (P = 0.035 and P < 0.001) and tiRNA5-Lys-CTT-1 (P = 0.021 and P < 0.001) compared with patients with no activity. Moreover, bioinformatics analysis revealed that both of the tsRNAs regulate the immune process by modulating metabolism and signal pathway. Conclusion In this study, we demonstrated that urinary exosome tsRNAs can be served as noninvasive biomarkers for the efficient diagnosis and prediction of nephritis in SLE.

Abstract
Background The transition from a healthy gastric mucosa to gastric cancer is a multi-step process. Early screening can significantly improve the survival rate of gastric cancer patients. A reliable liquid biopsy for gastric cancer prediction is urgently needed and since tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) are abundant in various body fluids, tRFs are possible new biomarkers for gastric cancer. Methods A total of 438 plasma samples from patients with different gastric mucosal lesions as well as healthy individuals were collected. A specific reverse transcription primer, a forward primer, a reverse primer, and a TaqMan probe were designed. A standard curve was constructed and an absolute quantitation method was devised for detection of tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP in plasma samples of individuals with differing gastric mucosa lesions. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed to evaluate the diagnostic values of tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP for individual with differing gastric mucosa. A Kaplan-Meier curve was established to calculate the prognostic value of tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP for advanced gastric cancer patients. Finally, a multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to assess the independent prognostic value of tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP for advanced gastric cancer patients. Results A detection method for plasma tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP was successfully established. Levels of plasma tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP were shown to reflect a gradient change from healthy individuals to gastritis patients to early and advanced gastric cancer patients. Significant differences were found among individuals with differing gastric mucosa, with reduced levels of tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP significantly related to a poor prognosis. tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP was found to be an independent predictor of an unfavorable survival outcome. Conclusions In this study, we developed a quantitative detection method for plasma tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP that exhibited hypersensitivity, convenience, and specificity. Detection of tRF-33-P4R8YP9LON4VDP was found to be a valuable means by which to monitor different gastric mucosa and to predict patient prognosis.

Abstract
The diagnosis and differential classification of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is difficult, especially in patients with early-onset SLE who are susceptible to systemic multi-organ damage and serious complications and have difficulties in individualized treatment. At present, diagnosis is based mainly on clinical manifestations and the detection of serological antinuclear antibodies. The pathogenesis of SLE involves multiple factors, is clinically heterogeneous, and lacks specific biomarkers. Therefore, it is necessary to identify new biomarkers for the diagnosis and subtype classification of SLE. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are composed of microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs, small nucleolar RNAs, circular RNAs, and transfer RNAs. They play an important role in the occurrence and development of diseases and are used widely in the early diagnosis and prognosis of autoimmune diseases. In this review, we focus on the research progress in the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of SLE using humoral to tissue level ncRNAs.

Zhou Y, Tao D, Shao Z, Wang X, Xu J, Li Y, Li K. Expression profiles of exosomal tRNA-derived fragments and their biological functions in lipomas. Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 10:942133. [PMID: 36035989 PMCID: PMC9399354 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2022.942133] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
There is evidence that exosomes derived from the lipoma tissue (Exo-LT) have a stronger capacity to promote the proliferation and migration of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) than those from the adipose tissue (Exo-AT). But the Exo-LT do not have a significant effect on the adipogenic differentiation of the ADSCs. Recently, certain exosomal tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) have been shown to play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of certain tumors. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the differently expressed tRFs in Exo-LT to further elucidate their molecular functions in lipomas. High-throughput sequencing was performed to examine the tRFs and mRNAs from the all samples belonging to the Exo-LT and Exo-AT groups. Target prediction and bioinformatics analysis were performed to explore their downstream mRNAs and biological functions. In total, 456 differently expressed tRFs and tiRNAs were identified in the Exo-LT group, 12 of which were up-regulated and 12 were down-regulated, respectively. Notably, tRF-1001 was most obviously down-regulated and tRF-3004a was most obviously up-regulated in the Exo-LT group. Moreover, among the target genes of tRF-1001 and tRF-3004a, both JAG2 and VSIG4 were significantly down-regulated in the Exo-LT group, while WNT5A, COL1A1, and PPARGC1A were highly expressed in both the Exo-LT and Exo-AT groups. The significant down-regulation of JAG2 and VSIG4 in the Exo-LT group could be due to the fact that Exo-LT had a stronger capacity to promote the proliferation and migration of ADSCs compared to the Exo-AT. The high expression of WNT5A, COL1A1, and PPARGC1A in both the Exo-LT and Exo-AT groups could be due to the similar ability of Exo-LT and Exo-AT to promote the adipogenic differentiation of ADSCs.

Dose Response 2022; 20:15593258221128744. [PMID: 36176737 PMCID: PMC9513591 DOI: 10.1177/15593258221128744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are a novel type of non-coding RNA with various regulatory functions. They are associated with oxidative stress in various diseases, but their potential functions in radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) remain uncertain. Methods To explore the role of tsRNAs in RILI, we used X-rays to irradiate human bronchial epithelial cells and examined the expression profile of altered tsRNAs by RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. Sequencing results were verified by qRT-PCR. tsRNA functions were explored using several methods, including CCK-8, reactive oxygen species (ROS) assays, cell transfection, and western blotting. Results Eighty-six differentially expressed tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) were identified: 64 were upregulated, and 22 were downregulated. Among them, the regulation of tRF-Gly-GCC, associated with oxidative stress, may be mediated by the inhibition of cell proliferation, promotion of ROS production, and apoptosis in the occurrence and development of RILI. A Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis suggested that the underlying molecular mechanism may involve the PI3K/AKT and the FOXO1 signaling pathways. Conclusion Our findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms underpinning RILI, advancing the clinical prevention and treatment of this disease.

Abstract
Regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines and immune cells by exosomes derived from SLE. Abnormal expression of exosome composition in SLE. Diagnostic role of miRNAs in Exosomes for SLE. Feasibility of exosomes in the treatment of SLE.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a global chronic autoimmune disease that invades most organs of the body, with kidney injury being the most prominent feature. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that carry a variety of proteins, lipids and genetic material, participate in the exchange of local and intersystem information, and play an important immunoregulatory role in a variety of autoimmune diseases. At the same time, the use of exosomes as disease biomarkers and drug delivery carriers also shows great application prospects. This article reviews current progress in the application of exosomes in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of SLE.

Abstract
ObjectivesThis study aimed to elucidate the potential of serum, urine, and saliva S100 calcium-binding protein A8 protein (S100A8) levels as biomarkers for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).MethodsSerum, urine, and saliva samples were obtained from 249 patients with SLE from the Ajou lupus cohort and 52 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs). The concentrations of S100A8 were quantified using an ELISA, and a receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze whether they may be used as biomarkers for diagnosing SLE.ResultsAmong 249 SLE patients included in our study, the mean SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI)-2K was 7.16 ± 5.61, and the number of patients with lupus flare was 11. Patients with SLE showed a 2.7-fold increase in serum S100A8 levels compared with that in HCs (1,890.6 vs. 709 pg/ml, p < 0.001). In urine and saliva, the average S100A8 levels were significantly higher in patients with SLE compared with those in HCs (urine, 2,029.4 vs. 1,096.7 pg/ml, p = 0.001; saliva, 290,496.3 vs. 47,742 pg/ml, p < 0.001). For SLE diagnosis, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.831 for serum S100A8 (95% CI, 0.765–0.897), 0.751 for urine S100A8 (95% CI, 0.648–0.854), and 0.729 for salivary S100A8 (95% CI, 0.646–0.812). Pearson’s correlation analysis showed that S100A8 in serum, urine, and saliva was significantly associated with the SLEDAI (r = 0.267, p < 0.001; r = 0.274, p < 0.001; and r = 0.629, p < 0.001, respectively). Among the clinical manifestations, nephritis was the most influential factor related to SLE in the concentration of S100A8 in serum, urine, and saliva.ConclusionThis is the first study to show that the expression of S100A8 in serum, urine, and saliva is significantly higher in patients with SLE than in HCs and is associated with disease activity markers. Therefore, we suggest that S100A8 protein could be a potential biomarker for SLE.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important for intercellular signalling in multi-cellular organisms. However, the role of mature transfer RNAs (tRNAs) and tRNA fragments in EVs has yet to be characterised. This systematic review aimed to identify up-to-date literature on tRNAs present within human EVs and explores their potential clinical significance in health and disease. A comprehensive and systematic literature search was performed, and the study was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched up until 1 January 2022. From 685 papers, 60 studies were identified for analysis. The majority of papers reviewed focussed on the role of EV tRNAs in cancers (31.7%), with numerous other conditions represented. Blood and cell lines were the most common EV sources, representing 85.9% of protocols used. EV isolation methods included most known methods, precipitation being the most common (49.3%). The proportion of EV tRNAs was highly variable, ranging between 0.04% to >95% depending on tissue source. EV tRNAs are present in a multitude of sources and show promise as disease markers in breast cancer, gastrointestinal cancers, and other diseases. EV tRNA research is an emerging field, with increasing numbers of papers highlighting novel methodologies for tRNA and tRNA fragment discovery.

Abstract
Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) are small vesicles that can be actively secreted by most cell types into the extracellular environment. Evidence indicates that EVs can carry microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), proteins, and lipids to target cells or tissue organizations. Latest studies show that EVs play a vital role in the immune modulation and may contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a common autoimmune disease characterized by abnormal T cell activation and sustained production of autoantibodies against self-antigens, resulting in inflammation and damage to multiple systems. Pathogenic mechanisms of SLE, however, are still not well understood. In this review, we summarize the latest research advances on the functions and mechanisms of EVs, and its role in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of SLE.
