Inhibition of acid or neutral sphingomyelinases differentially impacts RNA and protein cargo sorting to extracellular vesicles

ABSTRACT: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) form through regulated biogenesis processes involving sphingomyelinases (SMases), enzymes that metabolize sphingomyelin to produce ceramide-a lipid influencing membrane rigidity and essential for EV generation. This study explores the impact of inhibiting neutral SMase (NSM) and acid SMase (ASM) on the sorting of EV protein and RNA cargoes in human MCF7 cells. Our results revealed that NSM inhibition reduces EV nanoparticles and diminishes RNA and protein cargoes, including endosomal, spliceosomal, and translation-related proteins. Conversely, ASM inhibition increased RNA-binding proteins within and enhanced the expression of ribonucleoprotein complex-associated RNA in released EVs, including several snRNAs and 7SL RNA. Intriguingly, ASM-inhibited EVs enhanced the migration and translational activity of recipient MCF10A cells. These findings suggest an important role for SMase-dependent vesiculation in governing RNA and protein trafficking to the extracellular space, unveiling potential implications for cellular communication and function.

Investigating the Impacts of Sphingomyelinases on Extracellular Vesicle Cargo Sorting

Project description:The biogenesis of extracellular vesicles (EVs) is a regulated process, driven by mechanisms at specific subcellular milieus. Sphingomyelinases (SMases), which metabolize sphingomyelin in membranes, play a role in EV biogenesis. Their metabolic product, ceramide, induces invaginations at the endosome or blebbing from the plasma membrane, both important in EV generation. Here, we sought to evaluate the impact of SMase inhibition on EV protein and RNA cargoes. For this, we treated human MCF7 cells with the neutral SMase (NSM) inhibitor GW4869 or the acid SMase (ASM) inhibitor FTY720. EVs were then purified from the conditioned media of control or inhibitor-treated cells and characterized by a variety of approaches, including LC-MS/MS and RNA-sequencing. SMase inhibition resulted in morphological and phenotypic changes in the heterogeneous EV population. Strikingly, NSM inhibition resulted in a depletion of nanoparticles, as well as a decrease in the RNA and protein content of EVs, with a marked reduction in endosomal, spliceosomal, and translation-related proteins. Furthermore, we observed a reduction in the overall RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) in EVs released by cells treated with the NSM-inhibitor. In contrast, the ASM-inhibitor treatment, which appears to reduce plasma membrane-derived vesicles, elicited an inverse response, leading to an increase in RBP and associated machineries within the released EV population. RNA sequencing of these EV revealed changes in the RNA biotypes composition, with an increase in protein coding transcripts. Interestingly, ASM-inhibitor resulting EVs induced increased cell migration and protein translation in recipient MCF10A cells. These results suggest that SMase-dependent vesiculation represents a major route of RBP and RNA trafficking outside the cell, via endosomal pathways.

Temperature influences the composition and cytotoxicity of extracellular vesicles in Staphylococcus aureus

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a pathogenic bacterium but also a commensal of skin and anterior nares in humans. As S. aureus transits from skins/nares to inside the human body, it experiences changes in temperature. The production and content of S. aureus extracellular vesicles (EV) have been increasingly studied over the past few years and EVs are increasingly being recognized as important to the infectious process. Nonetheless, the impact of temperature variation on S. aureus EVs has not been studied in detail as most reports that investigate EV cargoes and host cell interactions are performed using vesicles produced at 37˚C. Here we report that S. aureus vesicle production is temperature-dependent with greater vesiculation at 40˚C. We demonstrate that the temperature dependent regulation of vesicle production in S. aureus is mediated by the alpha phenol soluble modulin peptides (αPSMs). Through proteomic analysis, we observed increased packaging of virulence factors at 40˚C whereas more total proteins are present in EVs produced at 34˚C. Similar to the protein content, we perform transcriptomic analysis and demonstrate that the RNA cargo is impacted by temperature also. Finally, we demonstrate greater αPSM- and α-toxin mediated erythrocyte lysis with 40˚C EVs but 34˚C EVs are more cytotoxic toward THP-1 cells. Together our study demonstrates that small temperature variations have great impact on EV biogenesis and shape the interaction with host cells.

Dual targeted extracellular vesicles regulating oncogenic genes in pancreatic cancer [Mouse Array]

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumours carry multiple gene mutations and respond poorly to treatments. There is currently an unmet need for drug carriers that can deliver multiple gene cargoes to high solid tumour burden like PDAC. Here, we report a dual-targeted extracellular vesicle (EV) carrying high loads of RNA that effectively suppresses large PDAC tumours in mice. The EV surface contains a CD64 protein that has a tissue targeting peptide and a humanized monoclonal antibody. Cells sequentially transfected with plasmid DNAs encoding for the RNA and protein of interest by Transwell®-based asymmetric cell electroporation released abundant targeted EVs with high RNA loading. Together with a low dose chemotherapy drug, Gemcitabine, dual-targeted EVs effectively suppressed large orthotopic PANC-1 and patient derived xenograft tumours in mice and extended animal survival. This work presents a clinically accessible and scalable way to produce abundant EVs for delivering multiple gene cargoes to large solid tumours.

Translocated Legionella pneumophila small RNAs mimic eukaryotic miRNAs to dampen the host immune response [THP-1]

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by bacteria, archaea and eukaryotic cells, are increasingly recognized as important mediators of intercellular communication via transfer of a wide variety of molecular cargoes. To characterize the effect of Lp-EVs on THP-1 cells, in particular the immune response, three independent RNAseq libraries were constructed from from THP-1 cells non-infected, incubated with purified wt-EVs or with purified EV from delta-rsmY Legionella bacteria. The RNA deep was purified after 3h of incubation and sequenced using an Illumina platform.

Crosstalk between the effects of extracellular vesicles (Evs) and TNF on U937 human monocyte cell line

Project description:Under physiological conditions, extracellular vesicles (EVs) are present simultaneously in the extracellular compartment together with cytokines. Thus, we hypothesized that EVs in combination with cytokines induce different responses of monocyte cells compared to EVs or cytokines alone. Human monocyte U937 cells were incubated with EV-containing or EV-free CCRF human T-cell supernatant, with or without the addition of TNF. U937 cells cultured in EV-free supernatant, supernatant containing CCRF t-cell derived EVs, TNF or both. Each treatment option was measured in 3 replicates.

Ovarian follicle extracellular vesicle-microRNAs mediated response of beef cows to environmental heat stress

Project description:Elevated ambient temperature during the summer season is a main cause of stress in dairy and beef cows, leading to impaired reproductive function and fertility. Follicular fluid extracellular vesicles (FF-EVs) play an important role in intrafollicular cellular communication by in part mediating the deleterious effects of heat stress (HS). Here we aimed to investigate the changes in FF-EV miRNA cargoes in beef cows in response to HS during the summer (SUM) compared to the winter (WIN) season using high throughput sequencing of FF-EV-coupled miRNAs.

Human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes under hypoxia/normoxia, treated with bone marrow or cardiac stromal cell extracellular vesicles

Project description:RNA-seq was performed on cultured human induced pluripotent cell derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs). There are four groups, with three samples per group: H1,H2,H3. Negative control. Healthy, normoxic iPSC-CMs D1,D2,D3. Positive control. iPSCs cultured under hypoxic (0-1% O2) for 48h with 2% v/v PBS as vehicle control EV1,EV2,EV3. Treatment 1. iPSCs cultured under hypoxic (0-1% O2) for 48h, with cardiac stromal cell derived extracellular vesicles, provided at a dose of 67ng/µl (2% v/v) EV21, EV23, EV24. Treatment 2 iPSCs cultured under hypoxic (0-1% O2) for 48h, with bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cell (BM-MSC) derived extracellular vesicles, provided at a dose of 67ng/µl (2% v/v) All EVs were isolated from cultured human cells using sequential centrifugation methods. Cells were cultured using commercial EV-depleted FBS to avoid contamination of bovine EVs. EVs were validated for CD81, CD9, ALIX positivity, and visualised by cryoEM. Particle to protein ratios were not different between cardiac and bone marrow EV isolates. Therefore EV doses were standardised so that the same dose by protein (67ng/µl) and EV number (~2,000 EVs per iPSC-CM) were added.

Glioma-derived miRNA-containing extracellular vesicles induce angiogenesis by reprogramming brain endothelial cells (miRNA-seq)

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is characterized by the close relationship of glioma stem cells (GSC) with aberrant vascularization. It has been established that GSC-derived extracellular vesicles (GSC-EVs) and their cargoes are proangiogenic in vitro. To elucidate gene regulatory mechanisms of neovascularization both in vitro and in vivo, we performed RNA-seq and DNA methylation profiling of the response of human brain endothelial cells to GSC-EVs as well as histoepigenetic analysis of GBM molecular profiles in the TCGA collection. The gene regulatory responses showed a footprint of post-transcriptional gene silencing by EV-derived miRNAs. Remarkably, EVs and normal vascular growth factors stimulated highly distinct gene regulatory responses, both converging on angiogenesis, providing exciting new insight into targetable angiogenic signaling in GBM.
