In response to Echinococcus multilocularis infection, UBE2N is downregulated in hepatocytes, with emu-miR-4989 being the key player in inhibiting UBE2N expression via exosomes released by parasites.
Echinococcus multilocularis metacestodes mainly reside in liver in humans and animals, and cause serious damages. UBE2N was herein shown to be downregulated in response to the infection. UBE2N was further shown to be predominantly expressed in the hepatocytes, which was also significantly downregulated during the infection. UBE2N was a target of emu-miR-4989, which was loaded into the exosomes secreted by parasites. These emumiR-4989-encapsulating exosomes were internalized by hepatocytes, and induced a significant decrease of relative luciferase activity in the cells transfected with the construct containing a wild type of UBE2N 3'-UTR compared to the control (p < 0.05). These results demonstrate that emu-miR-4989 is involved in the UBE2N inhibition in the hepatocytes during E. multilocularis through exosomes.
