Increasing evidence suggests a role for exosome-derived mirnas in the development and/or progression of specific human diseases. Pathogenic mirnas might be exploited as novel therapeutic targets or disease biomarkers in complex diseases, including cancer. In fact, mirnas seem to play critical roles as transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulators of epigenetic mechanisms and cell processes and have been linked to the etiology, progression and prognosis of cancer. Similar mirna expression patterns between tumor tissue samples and circulating exosomes have been observed. HBM-LS has developed optimized solutions for the efficient extraction of highquality total RNA (mirna and mrnas) from the overall exosomes and microvesicle population or from tumor-specific exosome subpopulation, which helps to facilitate the identification of tumor mirna or mrnas signatures from human biofluids or cell culture media. HBM offers three different kits for exosome capture and RNA extraction. EXO-TotalRNA: Overall Exosome Immunocapture and RNA extraction kit: Kit allows, by immunocapture, the isolation of overall exosome population from human biofluids or cell culture media and RNA extraction. TumorEXO-TotalRNA: Tumor Exosome Immunocapture and RNA extraction kit: Kit allows, by immunocapture, the enrichment of tumor-specific exosome population from human biofluids and RNA extraction. RNA Basic Kit: Kit allows RNA extraction from exosomes pre-isolated with different methods (ultracentrifugation, chemical precipitation, immunocapture, size-chromatography etc.) 42
Catalog 2018 Section 4 Extracellular Vesicles RNA extraction kits Exo-TotalRNA and TumorExo-TotalRNA isolation kits Exo-TotalRNA and TumorExo-TotalRNA are the only kits for exosome RNA isolation on the market which use immunobeads for capturing vesicles. HBM-LS immunobeads can capture the overall exosome population from a wide range of media, including cell culture supernatants and human biofluids (plasma, serum, urine, etc.) as well as enrich some specific exosome subpopulations (tumorderived exosomes). The captured exosomes are subsequently lysed with an optimized lysis buffer and total RNA is purified using spin columns with a fast and user-friendly process. Eluted RNA can be used for downstream analyses or stored at -80 C. Exosome standards for positive control are also included in the kit. All our kits guarantee high specificity for exosomal RNA and high yield of total RNA (including small RNAs). Applications Direct capture and exosome RNA extraction from human biofluids and cell culture media without initial exosome purification step. Simultaneous mirna and mrna profiling (qrt-pcr, RT-PCR, microarray). Enrichment of tumor-derived exosomes for cancer mirna marker profiling. Advantages High yield of total RNA (including small RNAs). Fast and user-friendly protocol. Small starting amount of sample (less than 1 ml). Better RNA yield than similar products. Cat.

Extracellular Vesicle RNA extraction kits Amount of starting material Whole human plasma and serum can be directly used for RNA extraction. Minimum volume required is 100 μl for plasma and 500 μl for serum. Using urine and cell media, it is recommended to concentrate the sample 10 folds, before incubating the samples with immunobeads. Shipment and storage Kit is shipped at 4 C and all reagents must be stored at 4 C.

Electropherograms of small RNA extracted with HBM EXO-Total RNA kit and Competitor (Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer) Efficiency of EXO-TotalRNA kit was tested vs a competitor kit for RNA extraction from plasma-derived exosomes. Extraction of total exosome RNA was performed from 100 μl of healthy donor plasma (HD #1 an #2) with Competitor Kit or with the EXO- TotalRNA Kit (HBM-LS). RNA quality was evaluated by electopherogram (Fig 1) with Small RNA microfluidic chips (Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer). RNA yield was quantified by Nanodrop (Fig 2) and extracted RNA was subsequently retrotranscribed using the miscript II RT kit (Qiagen). mir-21 and b-actin markers were amplified by qpcr (Fig 3 and 4). 600 Total RNA yield (ng) 24 PCR amplification mirna21 500 25 400 RNA ng 300 200 100 Ct Values 26 27 0 HBM Competitor 28 HBM Competitor 2.

Extracellular Vesicle RNA extraction kits TumorEXO-Total RNA allows enrichment of cancer-derived mirna from plasma samples Total exosome-derived RNA was extracted from 100 μl of plasma from a healthy donor and a cancer patient using RNA kit EXO-Total RNA (HBM- RNA-BOF) for immunocapture of overall exosomes and RNA extraction or TumorEXO-Total RNA (HBM-RNA-BTF), for tumor-derived exosome enrichment and RNA extraction, respectively. Total RNA extracted was retrotranscribed using the miscript II RT kit (Qiagen) and the expression level of mir-21 and mir-16 were measured relative to control mir451 by qpcr.
