Mass spectrometry-based proteomic characterization of cutaneous melanoma ectosomes reveals the presence of cancer-related molecules

ABSTRACT: Cutaneous melanoma (CM) is an aggressive type of skin cancer for which effective biomarkers are still needed. Due to the development of protocols for their successful isolation, protein content of extracellular vesicles (EVs) (including ectosomes and exosomes) became increasingly investigated in terms of its functional role in CM and as a source of novel biomarkers. The data concerning the proteome of CM-derived EVs is, however, very limited. The present study used shotgun nanoLC-MS/MS approach to profile protein content of ectosomes from primary (WM115 and WM793) and metastatic (WM266-4 and WM1205Lu) CM cell lines. Also, cancer-promoting effect exerted by CM ectosomes on recipient cells was assessed in terms of cell proliferation (Alamar Blue assay) and migratory properties (wound healing assay). A total of 1507 unique proteins were identified, with many of them involved in cancer cell proliferation, migration, escape from apoptosis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and angiogenesis. Isolated ectosomes significantly increased proliferation and motility of recipient cells, most likely due to ectosomal transfer of different cancer-promoting molecules. Taken together, these results confirm the significant role of ectosomes in several biological processes leading to CM development and progression, and might be used as a starting point for further studies exploring their diagnostic and prognostic potential.

Project description:Most cancer cells adopt a less efficient metabolic process of aerobic glycolysis with high level of glucose uptake followed by lactic acid production, known as the Warburg effect. This phenotypic transition enables cancer cells to achieve increased cellular survival and proliferation in a harsh low-oxygen tumor microenvironment. Also, the resulting acidic microenvironment causes inactivation of the immune system such as T-cell impairment that favours escape by immune surveillance. While lots of studies have revealed that tumor-derived EVs can deliver parental materials to adjacent cells and contribute to oncogenic reprogramming, their functionality in energy metabolism is not well addressed. In this study, we established prostate cancer cells PC3-AcT resistant to cellular death in an acidic culture medium driven by lactic acid. Quantitative proteomics between EVs derived from PC-3 and PC-3AcT cells identified 935 confident EV proteins. According to cellular adaptation to lactic acidosis, we revealed 159 regulated EV proteins related to energy metabolism, cellular shape, and extracellular matrix. These EVs contained a high abundance of glycolytic enzymes. In particular, PC-3AcT EVs were enriched with apolipoproteins including apolipoprotein B100 (APOB). APOB on PC-3AcT EVs could facilitate their endocytic uptake depending on low density lipoprotein receptor of recipient PC-3 cells, encouraging increases of cellular proliferation and survival in acidic culture media via increased activity and expression of hexokinases and phosphofructokinase. The activation of recipient PC-3 cells can increase glucose consumption and ATP generation, representing an acquired metabolic reprogramming into the Warburg phenotype. Our study first revealed that EVs derived from prostate cancer cells could contribute to energy metabolic reprogramming and that the acquired metabolic phenotypic transition of recipient cells could favor cellular survival in tumor microenvironment.
