Use of lymph-circulating extracellular vesicles as surrogate markers of melanoma progression and BRAFV600E mutation


ABSTRACT: Liquid biopsies are becoming imperative on early patient diagnosis, prognosis and evaluation of residual disease. The use of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) as surrogate markers of tumor progression could be a powerful tool in the clinical setting. EVs in plasma have emerged as a non-invasive option to detect metastatic outcome, however sensitivity is low. Here we have characterized the lymph obtained after postoperative lymphadenectomy as a novel biological fluid enriched in EVs. Our proteomic profiling and BRAFV600E/K status determination demonstrate for the first time that EVs from the lymph of melanoma patients are enriched in melanoma-associated proteins and are useful for BRAF mutations detection. Melanoma oncogenic pathways, immunomodulation and platelet activating proteins are enriched in lymph-derived exosomes from patients with distal lymph node spread compared to local/early spreading. Furthermore, patients positive for BRAFV600E mutation on lymph-circulating vesicles had a shorter time of relapse. These data encourage the analysis of lymph-circulating EVs for detection of residual disease and recurrence.
