Proteomic Analysis of Exosomes Secreted from Human Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Overexpressing Mesenchymal Stromal Cells.

ABSTRACT: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate many therapeutic effects of stem cells during cellular therapies. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) were manufactured to overexpress the human antiprotease alpha-1 antitrypsin (hAAT) and studied to compare the EV production compared to lentivirus treated control MSCs. The goal of this study was to compare protein profiles in the EVs/exosomes of control and hAAT-MSCs using unbiased, high resolution liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry to explore differences. Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) showed that the particle size of the EVs from control MSCs or hAAT-MSCs ranged from 30 to 200 nm. Both MSCs and hAAT-MSCs expressed exosome-associated proteins, including CD63, CD81, and CD9. hAAT-MSCs also expressed high levels of hAA
