Identification of Cell-Surface Proteins Endocytosed by Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells In Vitro.

ABSTRACT: Cell-surface proteins that can endocytose into brain microvascular endothelial cells serve as promising candidates for receptor-mediated transcytosis across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Here, we comprehensively screened endocytic cell-surface proteins in hCMEC/D3 cells, a model of human brain microvascular endothelial cells, using surface biotinylation methodology and sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment-ion spectra-mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS)-based quantitative proteomics. Using this method, we identified 125 endocytic cell-surface proteins from hCMEC/D3 cells. Of these, 34 cell-surface proteins were selectively internalized into human brain microvascular endothelial cells, but not into human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), a model of human peripheral mi
