<h4>Background</h4>Distant metastasis is one of the important factors affecting the prognosis of lung cancer patients. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play an important role in the occurrence, development, and metastasis of cancer. However, it is currently unclear whether EVs in BALF are involved in distant tumor metastasis.<h4>Methods</h4>we collected bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from patients with metastatic and non-metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to isolate exosomes, which w ...[more]

Project description:The current study is focused on Isolating EVs and their cargo content (miRNAs) from culture medium conditioned by individual embryos that can differentiate between the blastocyst and non-blastocyst embryos. We were able to isolate EVs from both blastocyst and non-blastocyst group with size exclusion chromatography (Izon’s™ qEV single column) and characterize them with Western blotting, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and Transmission electron microscopy. Further, we could isolate total RNA (including small RNAs) from the blastocyst and non-blastocyst EVs for miRNA sequencing.

Project description:Proteomics-based analysis of Peritoneal Dialysis Effluent is a relatively new approach to studying the changes associated with PD. Recent studies have shown altered proteomic profiles in various conditions of PD patients, including uremia, diabetes, peritonitis, abnormal peritoneal transport function and with different peritoneal dialysis modality. However, these studies extracted proteins in PDE by precipitation techniques resulting in high abundant diffusible proteins from blood circulation which interfered with the identification of low abundant, locally secreted, yet important, biomarkers. we hypothesize that EVs are secreted from peritoneal resident cells and contain known biomarkers for PDE-related membrane injury. As a proof of concept, here we identified and characterized EVs from PDE of healthy PD patients using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). Furthermore, we did proteomics and bioinformatics analyses to determine the number and type of proteins measurable within EVs isolated from the PDE using two methods of vesicle isolation.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication and serve as a source of biomarkers in several pathologies. In this study, we aimed to characterize plasma-derived EVs isolated by ultracentrifugation (UC) or size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to define the best method for proteomic and functional studies. EVs characterization included nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), detection of biomarkers by western blotting, and quantitative proteomic analysis. SEC-EVs samples had higher particle and protein concentration, particle-to-protein ratio, and smaller size compared to UC-EVs. A total of 171 proteins were identified through Sequential Window Acquisition of All Theoretical Mass Spectra (SWATH-MS) analysis, with 11 increased in SEC-EVs and 5 in UC-EVs. The proteins increased in UC-EVs are complement proteins and immunoglobulins, while the proteins increased in SEC-EVs are apolipoproteins and proteins present in the extracellular space. Functional studies with EVs from activated platelets confirmed that EVs isolated by SEC exacerbate platelet aggregation, whereas there was no effect induced by UC-EVs. The latter suggests that EVs obtained by SEC seem more suitable for platelet-related functional studies compared to those obtained by UC. The results presented pave the way for future clinical orientated studies involving plasma-derived EVs.

Project description:IntroductionBacteria inhabit the in- and outside of the human body, such as skin, gut or the oral cavity where they play an innoxious, beneficial or even pathogenic role. It is well known that bacteria can secrete membrane vesicles (MVs) like eukaryotic cells with extracellular vesicles (EVs). Several studies indicate that bacterial membrane vesicles (bMVs) play a crucial role in microbiome-host interactions. However, the composition of such bMVs and their functionality under different culture conditions are still largely unknown. MethodsTo gain a better insight into bMVs, we investigated the composition and functionality of E. coli (DSM 105380) bMVs from the culture media Lysogeny broth (LB) and RPMI 1640 throughout the different phases of growth (lag-, log- and stationary-phase). bMVs from three time points (8 h, 54 h and 168 h) and two media (LB and RPMI 1640) were isolated by ultracentrifugation and analyzed using nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), cryogenic electron microscopy (Cryo-EM), conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and mass spectrometry-based proteomics (LC-MS/MS). Furthermore, we examined pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-8 in the human monocyte cell line THP-1 upon bMV treatment.ResultsParticle numbers increased with inoculation periods. The bMV morphologies in Cryo-EM/TEM were similar at each time point and condition. Using proteomics, we identified 140 proteins, such as the common bMV markers OmpA and GroEL, present in bMVs isolated from both media and at all time points. Additionally, we were able to detect growth-condition-specific proteins. Treatment of THP-1 cells with bMVs of all six groups lead to significantly high IL-1β and IL-8 expressions.ConclusionsOur study showed that the choice of medium and the duration of culturing significantly influence both E.coli bMV numbers and protein composition. Our TEM/Cryo-EM results demonstrated the presence of intact E.coli bMVs. Common E. coli proteins, including OmpA, GroEL, and ribosome proteins, can consistently be identified across all six tested growth conditions. Furthermore, our functional assays imply that bMVs isolated from the six groups retain their function and result in comparable cytokine induction.

Project description:Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the microbiological characteristics of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) derived from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) to understand their mechanisms of inhibition of Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) in vitro. Methods: We assessed the inhibitory effects of P. aeruginosa on A. baumannii using a modified cross-streak assay. Subsequently, OMVs were extracted from P. aeruginosa strains using high-speed centrifugation, tangential flow filtration, ultrafiltration, and ultracentrifugation. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and nanoparticle tracking assays (NTAs) were performed to confirm the presence of the extracted OMVs. P. aeruginosa-derived OMVs’ inhibitory activity against A. baumannii was tested using a modified time-kill assay. The proteomic analysis of OMVs revealed potential antibacterial protein clusters with diverse functions. Results: P. aeruginosa 022 (PA022) demonstrated inhibition of A. baumannii in the cross-streak assay. The protein levels of OMVs for PA022 and P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853 (PA ATCC 27853) were 1665 and 428.6 μg/mL, respectively. Additionally, PA 022 and PA ATCC 27853 exhibited variable patterns and sizes in the SDS-PAGE, TEM, and NTA. Furthermore, the growth inhibitory effect of PA022 OMVs on A. baumannii was evaluated using a modified time-kill assay. The proteomic analysis of OMVs revealed potential antibacterial protein clusters in PA 022 associated with virulence, motility, and post-translational modifications. Conclusion: Our study contributes to the understanding of P. aeruginosa OMVs characteristics and their inhibitory effect against A. baumannii, providing insights into the development of alternative therapeutic approaches against multi-drug resistance.

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), a prolific protozoan parasite, forms cysts within neurons of the central nervous system that maintain infection for the lifetime of the host. Astrocytes are fundamental to neuronal health by providing nutrients and structural support and help regulate neurotransmitters by continuous communication with neurons. It is not yet known how infection and the presence of intracellular cysts, disrupts the crucial relationship between these cells. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) function in intracellular communication and can contain proteins, lipids, DNA, miRNA, and other RNA subtypes. EVs are produced by all cells and play an important role in neuronal-astrocyte interactions, including the regulation of glutamate receptors on astrocytes. Previous work has demonstrated that Toxoplasma infection reduces astrocytic expression of the primary glutamate transporter, GLT-1. Here we tested if cyst infection of neurons alters the production and content of EVs. EVs were isolated from uninfected and infected primary murine cortical neurons and their size, concentration, and characterization were confirmed with nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ELISA, western blot, liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS)/MS, and microRNA sequencing. Analysis reveals that infection of neurons reduced neuronal production of EVs and altered their protein and miRNA content. In addition to changes in host protein content, EVs from infected neurons contained the Toxoplasma proteins GRA1, GRA2, GRA7, MAG1 and MAG2. Following incubation of neuronal EVs with primary astrocytes, GRA7 protein could be observed within intracellular EVs and the nuclei of GRA7+EV-containing cells. EVs from infected neurons altered gene expression of astrocytes resulting in an increase in pro-inflammatory transcriptional signatures, along with a downregulation of GLT-1 protein expression with similar transcriptional changes found in astrocytes in vivo. These results demonstrate the ability of a parasitic infection in the brain to alter EV production and the fundamental communication between neurons and astrocytes.

Project description:Background: Following spinal cord injury (SCI), the inflammatory storm initiated by microglia/macrophages poses a significant impediment to the recovery process. Exosomes play a crucial role in the transport of miRNAs, facilitating essential cellular communication through the transfer of genetic material. However, the miRNAs from iPSC-NSCs-Exos and their potential mechanisms leading to repair after SCI remain unclear. This study aims to explore the role of iPSC-NSCs-Exos in microglia/macrophage pyroptosis and reveal their potential mechanisms. Methods: iPSC-NSCs-Exos were characterized and identified using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and Western blot. A mouse SCI model and a series of in vivo and in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the therapeutic effects of iPSC-NSCs-Exos. Subsequently, miRNA microarray analysis and rescue experiments were performed to confirm the role of miRNAs in iPSC-NSCs-Exos in SCI. Mechanistic studies were carried out using Western blot, luciferase activity assays, and RNA-ChIP. Results: Our findings revealed that iPSC-NSCs-derived exosomes inhibited microglia/macrophage pyroptosis at 7 days post-SCI, maintaining myelin integrity and promoting axonal growth, ultimately improving mice motor function. The miRNA microarray showed let-7b-5p to be highly enriched in iPSC-NSCs-Exos, and LRIG3 was identified as the target gene of let-7b-5p. Through a series of rescue experiments, we uncovered the connection between iPSC-NSCs and microglia/macrophages, revealing a novel target for treating SCI. Conclusion: In conclusion, we discovered that iPSC-NSCs-derived exosomes can package and deliver let-7b-5p, regulating the expression of LRIG3 to ameliorate microglia/macrophage pyroptosis and enhance motor function in mice after SCI. This highlights the potential of combined therapy with iPSC-NSCs-Exos and let-7b-5p in promoting functional recovery and limiting inflammation following SCI.
