ER stress decreases exosome production through adiponectin/T-cadherin-dependent and -independent pathways.

ABSTRACT: Exosomes, extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced within cells, mediate both the disposal of intracellular waste and communication with distant cells, and they are involved in a variety of disease processes. Although disease modifications of exosome cargos have been well studied, it has been poorly investigated how disease processes, such as endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, affect EV production. We previously reported that adiponectin, an adipocyte-secreted salutary factor, increases systemic exosome levels through T-cadherin-mediated enhancement of exosome biogenesis. In the present study, we demonstrated that adiponectin/T-cadherin-dependent EV production was susceptible to ER stress and that low-dose tunicamycin significantly reduced EV production in the presence, but not in the absence
