BACKGROUND: Intravitreal injections of angiogenesis inhibitors have proved efficacious in the majority of patients with ocular angiogenesis. However, one-fourth of all treated patients fail to derive benefits from intravitreal injections. tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA) emerges as a crucial class of non-coding RNA molecules, orchestrating key roles in the progression of human diseases by modulating multiple targets. Through our prior sequencing analyses and bioinformatics predictions, tRNA-Cys-5-0007 has shown as a potential regulator of ocular angiogenesis. This study endeavors to elucidate the precise role of tRNA-Cys-5-0007 in the context of ocular angiogenesis. METHODS: Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) assays were employed to detect tRNA-Cys-5-0007expression. EdU assays, sprouting assays, transwell assays, and Matrigel assays were conducted to elucidate the involvement of tRNA-Cys-5-0007 in endothelial angiogenic effects. STZ-induced diabetic model, OIR model, and laser-induced CNV model were utilized to replicate the pivotal features of ocular vascular diseases and evaluate the influence of tRNA-Cys-5-0007 on ocular angiogenesis and inflammatory responses. Bioinformatics analysis, luciferase activity assays, RNA pull-down assays, and in vitro studies were employed to elucidate the anti-angiogenic mechanism of tRNA-Cys-5-0007. Exosomal formulation was employed to enhance the synergistic anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory efficacy of tRNA-Cys-5-0007. RESU...
