摘要： Simple Summary Exosomes are multivesicular bodies produced and secreted by living cells as membranous vesicles with a diameter of about 30-150 nm, density of 1.13-1.19 g/mL, and a typical "cup dish" shape. Exosomes carry proteins, miRNA, lncRNA, circRNA, and mRNA and their degradation fragments are involved in intracellular signal transduction important for regulation of cellular activities. Of these, miRNAs play an important role in the regulation of gene expression in important biological processes such as cell division, tissue development, and immune response. In this study, milk quality was determined and exosome miRNAs from yak and Jeryak milk sampled in June and December were characterized by sequencing. Differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) and pathways related to lactation performance were identified. In summary, this study provides data that can be used to develop alternative strategies for improving the lactation performance of yaks and Jeryaks. The Jeryak is the hybrid offspring of yaks and Jersey cattle and exhibit improved milk and meat yields. Biomolecules carried within milk exosomes are important for cell growth, development, immune regulation, and various pathophysiological processes. Previous studies showed that miRNAs regulate mammary gland development, lactation, and milk quality. This study explored the relationship between milk exosomes miRNAs and lactation performance. A comparison of the milk content showed that yak milk was of a better quality compared to Jeryak milk (casein, fat, TS, SNF, lactose). Milk collected in December was superior to that collected in June for both yak and Jeryak, except for lactose concentrations. Exosomes were extracted by density gradient centrifugation and miRNA expression profiles in milk exosomes from three yaks and three Jeryaks collected in June and December were detected by small RNA sequencing. In all, 22, 120, 78, and 62 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were identified in Jun_ JY vs. Jun_ Y (P1: Jeryak in June vs. Yak in June), Jun_ JY vs. Dec_ JY (P2: Jeryak in June vs. Jeryak in December), Dec_ JY vs. Dec_ Y (P3: Jeryak in December vs. Yak in December), and Jun_ Y vs. Dec_ Y (P4: Yak in June vs. Yak in December) groups. These DEMs were enriched in functions and signaling pathways related to lactation performance. In conclusion, these findings are a reference tool to study the molecular basis of lactation performance.
