Proteomic characterization of extracellular vesicles produced by several wine yeast species.

ABSTRACT: In winemaking, the use of alternative yeast starters is becoming increasingly popular. They contribute to the diversity and complexity of wine sensory features and are typically used in combination with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to ensure complete fermentation. This practice has drawn the interest on interactions between different oenological yeasts, which are also relevant in spontaneous and conventional fermentations, or in the vineyard. Although several interactions have been described and some mechanisms have been suggested, the possible involvement of extracellular vesicles (EVs) has not yet been considered. This work describes the production of EVs by six wine yeast species (S. cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii, Lachancea thermotolerans, Hanseniaspora uvarum, Candida sake and Metschnikowia pulcherrima) in synthetic grape must. Proteomic analysis of EV-enriched fractions from S. cerevisiae and T. delbrueckii showed enrichment in glycolytic enzymes and cell-wall-related proteins. The most abundant protein found in S. cerevisiae, T. delbrueckii and L. thermotolerans EV-enriched fractions was the enzyme exo-1,3-?-glucanase. However, this protein was not involved in the here-observed negative impact of T. delbrueckii extracellular fractions on the growth of other yeast species. These findings suggest that EVs may play a role in fungal interactions during wine fermentation and other aspects of wine yeast biology.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow (BM). The microenvironment plays a key role in MM cell survival and drug resistance through release of soluble factors, expression of adhesion molecules and release of extracellular vesicles (EVs). The aim of this manuscript is to use proteomic profiling of EVs as a tool to identify circulating tumor associated markers in MM patients. First, we characterized the EV protein content obtained from different MM cell lines. Then, we established differences in protein abundance among EVs isolated from MM patient serum and BM and the serum of healthy donors. These data show that the Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I is highly enriched in EVs of MM cell lines and MM patient's serum. Next, we show that CD44 is highly expressed in the EVs isolated from the corticosteroid resistant MM cell line, MM.1R. Furthermore, CD44 was found to be differentially expressed in EVs isolated from newly diagnosed MM patients. Finally through ELISA analysis, we establish the potential of serum CD44 as a predictive biomarker of overall survival. These results support the analysis of EVs as an easily accessible source for MM biomarkers.Biological significanceExtracellular vesicles are becoming a research focus due to their roles in cancer cell biology such as immune evasion, therapeutic resistance, proliferation and metastases. While numerous studies of vesicle characterization and biology have been conducted in many cancer models, the role of EV in MM remains relatively unstudied. Here we found that EVs isolated from MM cells are enriched in MHC-1 antigen presenting complex and its binding protein β2-MG, this observation is compatible with the enhanced proteasome activity of MM cells compared to other cancers and the ability of functional MHC-1 to bind and present peptides, generated from protein degradation by the proteasome. Additionally, our experiments show that CD44 is particularly enriched in the EV fraction of corticosteroid resistant MM.1R cells and is differentially expressed in the EV fraction of MM patients. This is of high significance due to the established role of CD44 in adhesion of MM cells to BMSC and induction of IL-6, the primary cytokine for MM cell survival, secretion by the BMSC. Furthermore, ELISA assays for CD44 content from the serum of 254 newly diagnosed MM patients enrolled in a Phase 3 randomized trial show highly variable CD44 levels and those patients with >280 ng/mL serum CD44 showing a reduced overall survival time. These results suggest the potential use of CD44 as a prognostic biomarker in MM.
