Abstract

Exosome miRNA has significant potential as biomarker for minimal or non-invasive diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression. However, extraction of miRNA exosomes from biofluids is challenging, and there is a lack of comparative evaluation of commercially available extraction kits for qPCR applications. Therefore, this study aims to obtain information about miRNA exosome extraction using commercial kits and analyze its expression with the qRT-PCR method. The exosome extraction was carried out using 3 types of commercial kits, while the RNA extraction was performed with a spin column. The purity and concentration of exosomes were measured using NTA, while total RNA was measured with nanodrops. Subsequently, miRNA expression was measured using qRT-PCR. The results showed that the concentration of exosomes obtained using kit 1 for plasma isolation was 3.5 x 1011 with particle sizes ranging from 30-240 nm. Kit 2 yielded a value of 2.9 x 1010 with particle sizes ranging from 30-150 nm, while kit 3 had no measurable value. The average concentration of RNA extracted using the RNA Basic kit from HansaBioMed was 42.53 ng/μL, while the exoRNeasy Midi kit from Qiagen yielded 45.28 ng/μL. Template RNA of 100 ng was converted into cDNA, while the cDNA was diluted at a ratio of 1:20 using RNase free water during the quantification process of miRNA exosome expression with the qRT-PCR method. Based on the results, exosome miRNA quantification process requires the use of the correct method at each stage to obtain the right expression for clinical studies.

Abstract

One of the major causes of Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) in Indonesia is maternal malnutrition during pregnancy. Folic Acid has long been the primary supplement administered to women from preconception through pregnancy. Additionally, several studies have demonstrated that Saffron possesses anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective properties. However, the effects of Saffron on liver tissue in IUGR rat models remain underexplored. This study aimed to investigate the effects of Saffron administration compared to Folic Acid on birth weight, hepatic tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) expression, and liver histopathology in IUGR rats. Forty female and eight male rats were mated. Upon confirmation of pregnancy, the dams were randomly assigned to four groups: normal control (K1), receiving a standard diet throughout pregnancy (19-21 days) and lactation (21 days); IUGR control (K2), subjected to 50% dietary restriction (DR); IUGR + Saffron group (K3), receiving DR plus Saffron extract at 15.68 mg/kg body weight; and IUGR + Folic Acid group (K4), receiving DR plus Folic Acid at 1.5 mg/kg body weight. After 21 days of lactation, the offspring were euthanized, and liver tissues were collected for histological and immunohistochemical analyses. Pups' birth weights, hepatic TNF-α expression (immunohistochemistry), and histological damage (NAS score) were assessed. Folic acid showed superior effects in increasing birth weight, reducing TNF-α, and improving liver histology compared to saffron. These findings suggest folic acid as a potent hepatoprotective agent in IUGR conditions.
