Extracellular vesicles derived from pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages induce an inflammatory and invasive phenotype in melanoma cells.

ABSTRACT: Melanoma progression and metastasis depend on intercellular communication within the tumor microenvironment (TME), where extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as essential mediators through the transfer of molecular cargo. In melanoma, macrophages are enriched in the TME, and their abundance and infiltration into the tumor area are associated with poor prognosis. In this study, we examined the effects of pro-inflammatory M1 and immunosuppressive M2 macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) on melanoma cells to gain insights into EV-mediated interactions between macrophages and tumor cells. Our results demonstrate that M1 EVs reprogram MV3 melanoma cells into a pro-inflammatory state by upregulating the expression and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines CXCL8, IL-6 and IL-1B. This M1 EV -induced inflammatory phenotype enhanced melanoma cell invasion, which was suppressed by CXCL8 silencing. Furthermore, M1 EV treatment activated the NF-κB signaling pathway, and its inhibition with the IKK16 inhibitor led to downregulation of inflammation-associated genes. These results suggest that M1 EVs promote tumor-associated inflammation in melanoma through NF-κB signaling, underscoring the pivotal role of EV-mediated macrophage–tumor cell communication in cancer progression.

Exosomes dependent immune surveillance at the metastatic niche requires BAG6

Project description:Mice were intravenously injected with extracellular vesicles (EVs) isolated from B16V wt (n=3) or BAG6KO (n=3) cells or with PBS (n=3) as a control for 4 weeks on a weekly basis. Since B-16V melanoma cells colonise the lung upon intravenous injection and referring to current literature, we hypothesise that melanoma EVs alter the (immune-) microenvironment of the lung to prepare a pre-metastatic niche. Based on current literature and own previous experiments identifying BAG6 as an immunoregulatory protein that is also involved in the biogenesis of EVs, we are particularly interested in differences between the immune signature upon wt EV treatment compared to BAG6KO EV treatment.

Characterization and Small RNA Content of Extracellular Vesicles in Follicular Fluid of Developing Bovine Antral Follicles

Project description:Exosomes and microvesicles (i.e., extracellular vesicles; EVs) have been identified within ovarian follicular fluid, and recent evidence suggests that EVs are able to elicit profound effects on ovarian cell function. While existence of miRNA within EVs has been reported, it remains unknown if EV size and concentration as well as their cargos (i.e., proteins and RNA) change during antral follicle growth. Extracellular vesicles isolated from follicular fluid of small, medium and large bovine follicles were similar in size, while concentration of EVs decreased progressively as follicle size increased. Electron microscopy indicated a highly purified population of the lipid bilayer enclosed vesicles that were enriched in exosome biomarkers including CD81 and Alix. Small RNA sequencing identified a large number of known and novel miRNAs that changed in the EVs of different size follicles. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) indicated that miRNA abundant in small follicle EV preparations were associated with cell proliferation pathways, while those miRNA abundant in large follicle preparations were related to inflammatory response pathways. These studies are the first to demonstrate that EVs change in their levels and makeup during antral follicle development and point to the potential for a unique vesicle-mediated cell-to-cell communication network within the ovarian follicle.

Iron reshapes polyamine metabolism through controlling exosomal miR-33a secretion to remodel extracellular matrix in tumor microenvironment

Project description:Tumor progression depends on the bidirectional interactions between cancer and stroma in the heterogenous tumor microenvironment (TME) partially through extracellular vesicles (EVs). However, the secretion mechanism and biological effect of cancer cell-derived EVs on tumor survival under starvation is poorly defined. Here, we demonstrate cancer cells selectively secrete miR-33a with the assistance of protein ACO1 under glucose starvation and lower iron level, which affiliates the binding capability of miR-33a and ACO1. Exosomal miR-33 suppresses putrescine biosynthesis by targeting AGMAT in tumor stroma, where putrescine inhibits the expression of demethylase KDM5C. TIA1 gene, stress granule (SG) marker, is tightly regulated by miR-33a/KDM5C axis. Exosomal miR-33a diminishes the formation of SGs in tumor stroma but inducing more fibronectin secretion into TME. Collectively, our study reveals tumor secrets distinct EV cargoes to remodel the SGs and extracellular matrix of TME to gain survival possibility, highlighting a novel regulatory mechanism of iron and nutrient level on EV secretion in TME.

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.

TGF-β regulates the release of breast cancer cell-derived extracellular vesicles and the sorting of their protein cargo by downregulating RAB27B expression

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of intercellular communications in tumor microenvironment (TME). EV-mediated TGF-β signaling in the TME facilitates tumor metastasis and immune evasion by transferring TGF-β ligands and regulators to recipient cells. The mechanisms of how TGF-β affects cellular EV release and composition, however, are incompletely understood. Here, we systematically investigated the effects of TGF-β on EV release and protein composition. Here, we used quantitative proteomics to analyze how TGF-β regulates the protein composition of EVs by downregulating RAB27B expression.

Transcriptomics of THP-1 EVs released after inflammasome or TLR stimulation

Project description:Inflammasome-activated cells undergo an inflammatory cell death associated with the release of potent pro-inflammatory cytokines and poorly characterized extracellular vesicles (EVs). Since inflammasome-induced EVs could signal inflammasome pathway activation in patients with chronic inflammation and modulate bystander cell activation, we performed a systems analysis of the RNA content and function of two EV classes. Therefore, PMA-differentiated THP-1 macrophages were either stimulated with inflammasome activators or TLR ligands and subsequently differently sized EVs (10K and SEC EVs) were isolated from the tissue culture supernatant. The RNA contained within EV preparations was extracted and subjected to the Clariom D microarray.

Notch signaling regulates the secretion of pro-metastatic factors in extracellular vesicles in liposarcoma

Project description:Notch signaling is an emerging regulator of liposarcoma (LPS) but its role in mediating communication with the tumor microenvironment (TME) is unclear. Here, we investigate how Notch activation (NICD overexpression) alters proteomes of LPS-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs). We used quantitative mass spectrometry to profile EV proteome in multiple contexts: cultured LPS cells, LPS tumor, circulating EVs of LPS-bearing mice and human LPS samples. We found that Notch signaling increases the secretion of EV proteins that favors tumor progression and metastasis but suppresses immune responses in murine LPS cells. Overlapping murine and human LPS data identifies 18 proteins that are increased in LPS EVs of both species, including endotrophin as a biomarker of LPS. Functional analysis supports a role of LPS EVs in regulating gene expression and behaviors of endothelial cells in TME. Together, these data demonstrate that in addition to its known function in driving tumorigenesis, Notch signaling also regulates TME through EV secretion.

Extracellular vesicles from pancreatic cancer cells activate mast cells which in turn promote tumor cell proliferation and establish a tumor-supportive microenvironment

Project description:Background and aim: Recent studies reveal a critical role of tumor cell-released extracellular vesicles (EVs) in pancreatic cancer progression. Driver genes directing EV function, the EV-recipient cells, as well as their cellular response to EV uptake remain, however, to be identified. To address this, we investigated the role of the EV biogenesis regulator Bcl-2-associated-anthanogene6 (BAG6)for cancer progression. Methods: We used a cre recombinase/loxP-based reporter system in combination with single-cell RNA sequencing to monitor in vivo EV uptake and tumor microenvironment (TME) changes in preclinical mouse models for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in a Bag6 pro- or deficient background. In vivo data were validated using mouse and human organoids, as well aspatient samples. Results: Bag6-deficient subcutaneous and orthotopic PDAC tumors showed accelerated tumor growth dependent on EV release. Mechanistically, this was attributed to mast cell (MC) activation via EV-associate IL33. Activated MCs promoted tumor cell proliferation and altered the composition of the TME affecting fibroblast polarization and immune cell infiltration. Tumor cell proliferation and TME remodeling were mediated via the MC secretome containing high levels of PDGF and CD73. In patients, BAG6 gene expression and protein serum level correlated with survival and low MC infiltration indicating clinical relevance. Conclusion: The study revealed a tumor-suppressing activity of BAG6 in PDAC, unknown up to now. Bag6-deficiency allowed the release of Evs-associated IL33 which shaped the composition of the TME via MC activation causing aggressive tumor growth. MC depletion using Imatinib diminished tumor growth providing a scientific rationale for the evaluation of Imatinib treatment of patients stratified for low BAG6 expression and high MC infiltration.

Seminal Plasma-Derived Extracellular-Vesicle Fractions from HIV-Infected Men Exhibit Unique MicroRNA Signatures and Induce a Proinflammatory Response in Cells Isolated from the Female Reproductive Tract

Project description:The continuing spread of HIV/AIDS is predominantly fueled by sexual exposure to HIV-contaminated semen. Seminal plasma (SP), the liquid portion of semen, harbors a variety of factors that may favor HIV transmission by facilitating viral entry into host cells, eliciting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and enhancing the translocation of HIV across the genital epithelium. One important and abundant class of factors in SP is extracellular vesicles (EVs), which in general are important intercellular signal transducers. Although numerous studies have characterized blood plasma-derived EVs from both uninfected and HIV-infected individuals, little is known about the properties of EVs from semen of HIV-infected individuals. We report here that fractionated SP enriched for EVs from HIV-infected men induce potent transcriptional responses in epithelial and stromal cells that interface with luminal contents of the female reproductive tract. Compared to semen EV fractions from uninfected individuals, those from acutely-infected individuals induced a more pro-inflammatory signature. This was not associated with any observable differences in the surface phenotypes of the vesicles. However, miRNA expression profiling analysis revealed that EV fractions from infected individuals exhibit a broader and more diverse profile. Taken together, our data suggest that SP EVs from HIV-infected individuals exhibit unique miRNA signatures and exert potent pro-inflammatory transcriptional changes in cells of the female reproductive tract, which may facilitate HIV transmission.
