WBPaper00066447:Day8_vs_Day1_upregulated_BodyWallMuscle
Algorithm:
Differentially expressed miRNAs were identified using DEGseq based on unique molecular identifier (UMI). A minimum UMI sum of 10 in 3 replicates was set as the threshold of expression. MiRNAs with more than five reads were defined as expressed. Differential expression of miRNAs was analysed by t-test (P value < 0.05 and fold-change > 1.5 or < 0.67) after Box-Cox transformation. MiRNA targets were identified by TargetScanWorm (Release 6.2) and Pearson Correlation Coefficient smaller than -0.2.References

Ageing exhibits common and distinct features in various tissues, making it critical to decipher the tissue-specific ageing mechanisms. MiRNAs are essential regulators in ageing and are recently highlighted as a class of intercellular messengers. However, little is known about the tissue-specific transcriptomic changes of miRNAs during ageing. C. elegans is a well-established model organism in ageing research. Here, we profile the age-dependent miRNAomic changes in five isolated worm tissues. Besides the diverse ageing-regulated miRNA expression across tissues, we discover numerous miRNAs in the tissues without their transcription. We further profile miRNAs in the extracellular vesicles and find that worm miRNAs undergo inter-tissue trafficking via these vesicles in an age-dependent manner. Using these datasets, we uncover the interaction between body wall muscle-derived mir-1 and DAF-16/FOXO in the intestine, suggesting mir-1 as a messenger in inter-tissue signalling. Taken together, we systematically investigate worm miRNAs in the somatic tissues and extracellular vesicles during ageing, providing a valuable resource to study tissue-autonomous and nonautonomous functions of miRNAs in ageing.
