The Proteome of Circulating Large Extracellular Vesicles in Diabetes and Hypertension.

ABSTRACT: Hypertension and diabetes induce vascular injury through processes that are not fully understood. Changes in extracellular vesicle (EV) composition could provide novel insights. Here, we examined the protein composition of circulating EVs from hypertensive, diabetic and healthy mice. EVs were isolated from transgenic mice overexpressing human renin in the liver (TtRhRen, hypertensive), OVE26 type 1 diabetic mice and wild-type (WT) mice. Protein content was analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. We identified 544 independent proteins, of which 408 were found in all groups, 34 were exclusive to WT, 16 were exclusive to OVE26 and 5 were exclusive to TTRhRen mice. Amongst the differentially expressed proteins, haptoglobin (HPT) was upregulated and ankyrin-1 (ANK1) was downregu
