Abstract:
【Objective】 To investigate the changes of platelet microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles on d1 and d5 during storage with riboflavin and ultraviolet-B (UVB) light (VB2-PRT) treatment, and to explore the molecular mechanism of miRNAs involved in the regulation of platelet storage lesion (PSL) under VB2-PRT treatment. 【Methods】 20 apheresis platelet concentrates (5mL / sample) were collected from voluntary blood donors. After mixing and shaking, the samples was treated with riboflavin (final concentration 50 μmol/L) and 6.24J/mL UVB light for 8min, then split into two aliquots and agitated stored at (22±2) ℃. The concentrates were sampled (5mL) on d1 and d5, respectively, and sequenced by DNA nanoball (DNB) sequencing technology. The differentially expressed miRNAs between the two groups (at different storage periods) were screened by DEGseq and MA-plot analysis software. The miRNAs, reached more than 2 times different expression between groups, were considered significant different(P<0.01). The miRanda and TargetScan softwares were used to predict the target genes. Gene Ontology (GO) function enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were performed on the target genes of significant differentially expressed miRNAs. The expression of miRNAs was verified by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). 【Results】 miRNA expression profile: compared with d1 platelets, there were 590 miRNAs with significantly different expression (P< 0.01) in d5 group, including 255 up-regulated miRNAs (such as miR-99b, miR-7) and 335 down regulated miRNAs (such as miR-451a, miR-19b). Among the 272 known miRNAs, 112 were up-regulated and 160 were down regulated. There were 318 new miRNAs sequences. The enriched GO terms of target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs in d5 and d1 groups included cell components, organelles, cell membranes and other cellular structures, molecular functions such as adhesion, catalysis, molecular conversion, transportation, transcription factor and receptor activity, and biological processes such as cell processing, metabolism, biological regulation and stress. The corresponding pathways in the top 10 of KEGG enrichment were mainly secretion, glucose metabolism, signal transduction, membrane transport, translation, environmental adaptation and other signal pathways. The six randomly selected differentially expressed miRNAs verified by qRT-PCR was consistent with those of DNB sequencing. 【Conclusion】 The expression profiles of platelets miRNAs has changed significantly between d1- and d5-storage under VB2-PRT treatment. Functional prediction suggests that these miRNAs might be involved in the regulation of platelet PSL underVB2-PRT treatment.
