Engineering Extracellular Matrix-Bound Nanovesicles Secreted by Three-Dimensional Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

ABSTRACT: Extracellular matrix (ECM) in the human tissue contains vesicles, which are defined as matrix-bound nanovesicles (MBVs). MBVs serve as one of the functional components in ECM, recapitulating part of the regulatory roles and in vivo microenvironment. In this study, extracellular vesicles from culture supernatants (SuEVs) and MBVs are isolated from the conditioned medium or ECM, respectively, of 3D human mesenchymal stem cells. Nanoparticle tracking analysis shows that MBVs are smaller than SuEVs (100-150 nm). Transmission electron microscopy captures the typical cup shape morphology for both SuEVs and MBVs. Western blot reveals that MBVs have low detection of some SuEV markers such as syntenin-1. miRNA analysis of MBVs shows that 3D microenvironment enhances the expression of miRNAs such as
