摘要： MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are bio-active elements cargoed by seminal plasma extracellular vesicles extracellular vesicles (SPEVs) which are crucial for sperm function and fertility modulation. This study aimed to isolate, characterize, and identify the miRNA expression profiles in the SPEVs from high (HSM) and low sperm motility (LSM) groups that could serve as fertility biomarkers and explain the underlying mechanisms. The isolated SPEVs were round spherical structures of approximately 50-200 nm in diameter expressing molecular markers. A total of 1006 and 1084 miRNAs were detected in HSM and LSM, respectively, with 34 being differentially expressed. Their targeted genes involved in SNARE interactions in vesicular transport, Metabolic pathways, and Apelin signaling pathway, etc. The joint analysis with mRNAs of sperm and sperm storage tubules cells highlighted the cellular communication mediated by SPEVs miRNAs, where they may rule fertility by affecting sperm maturation and amino acid metabolism. SPEVs as additives could improve fertility of fresh and frozen sperm, while the knockdown of one of the differentially expressed miRNAs, miR-24-3p, diminished this effect, indicating its crucial roles. This study expands our understanding of SPEVs miRNAs mediated sperm maturation and fertility modulation, and may help to develop new therapeutic strategies for infertility and sperm storage.
