Aim: This study aimed to investigate the transcriptomic characteristics and interactions between competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) within small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from mast cells (MCs). Methods: Transcriptome sequencing analyzed lncRNA, circRNA and mRNA expression in resting and degranulated MC-derived sEVs. Constructed ceRNA regulatory network through correlation analysis and target gene prediction. Results: Differentially expressed 1673 mRNAs, 173 lncRNAs and 531 circRNAs were observed between resting and degranulated MCs-derived sEVs. Enrichment analysis revealed involvement of neurodegeneration, infection and tumor pathways. CeRNA networks included interactions between lncRNA-miRNA, circRNA-miRNA and miRNA-mRNA, targeting genes in the hippo and wnt signaling pathways linked to tumor immune regulation. Conclusion: This study provides valuable insights into MC-sEV molecular mechanisms, offering significant data resources for further investigations.
