Abstract:
【Objective】 To analyze the changes of microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles on day 1 and day 5 after storage with or without 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), collected from voluntary donors, were split into two group after mixing and agitation. One was treated with riboflavin (final concentration 50 μmol/L) plus 6.24 J/mL UVB light(E group), and the other worked as a control group (C group) without any treatment. Both groups were subjected to agitated storage at (22±2) ℃ horizontally. The platelet concentrates were sampled on d1 and d5 (5mL) during storage, named as E1, E5, C1 and C5 groups, respectively, and sequenced by DNA nanoball (DNB) sequencing technology. The differentially expressed miRNAs between E and C groups were screened by using DEGseq and MA-plot analysis software, and GO function enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were further performed when the different expression between groups reached twofold and above. 【Results】 Compared with C1 group, 487 miRNAs with significantly different expression (P<0.01) were screened in E1 group, including 220 up-regulated miRNAs, such as miR-146a and let-7b, and 267 down regulated miRNAs, such as miR-7 and miR-1260. Compared with C5 group, 229 miRNAs with significantly different expression (P<0.01) were screened in E5, including 80 miRNAs with up-regulated expression, such as miR-423 and miR-378, and 149 down regulated miRNAs, such as miR-451 and miR-30.The target genes with differentially expressed miRNAs in E1 vs C1 groups and E5 vs C5 groups were similar in the numbers of enriched GO terms, including cell components, organelles, cell membrane and other cell structures, molecular functions such as adhesion, catalysis, molecular transformation, transportation, transcription factors and receptor activity, cell processing, metabolism, biological regulation, stress and other biological processes etc. Compared with E1 and C1 groups, E5 and C5 groups lacked of signal pathways related to environmental adaptation, translation and mucin synthesis, however, it increased inositol phosphate metabolism, phosphatidylinositol signaling system and chemokine signaling pathway. 【Conclusion】 The expression profiles of platelets miRNAs treated with VB2-PRT has changed significantly after storage for a period of time. Functional prediction suggests that these miRNAs might be involved in the regulation of platelet PSL induced by VB2-PRT.
