Longitudinal stability of urinary extracellular vesicle protein patterns within and between individuals.

ABSTRACT: The protein content of urinary extracellular vesicles (EVs) is considered to be an attractive non-invasive biomarker source. However, little is known about the consistency and variability of urinary EV proteins within and between individuals over a longer time-period. Here, we evaluated the stability of the urinary EV proteomes of 8 healthy individuals at 9 timepoints over 6 months using data-independent-acquisition mass spectrometry. The 1802 identified proteins had a high correlation amongst all samples, with 40% of the proteome detected in every sample and 90% detected in more than 1 individual at all timepoints. Unsupervised analysis of top 10% most variable proteins yielded person-specific profiles. The core EV-protein-interaction network of 516 proteins detected in all measured samples revealed sub-clusters involved in the biological processes of G-protein signaling, cytoskeletal transport, cellular energy metabolism and immunity. Furthermore, gender-specific expression patterns were detected in the urinary EV proteome. Our findings indicate that the urinary EV proteome is stable in longitudinal samples of healthy subjects over a prolonged time-period, further underscoring its potential for reliable non-invasive diagnostic/prognostic biomarkers.

Longitudinal landscape of urinary EV proteome reveals stable protein expression patterns within and between individuals

Project description:Urinary extracellular vesicles (EVs) are an attractive source for the detection of disease biomarkers. Mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomics is increasingly used for urinary EV proteome profiling and protein biomarker discovery. However, little is known about the consistency and stability of urinary EV proteins within individuals over time and between different individuals. In this study we profiled the urinary EV proteome of 8 healthy individuals over 6 months at 9 timepoints (total 72 samples) using DIA-MS. We identified a total of 1802 proteins with high correlation amongst all samples. While a minor fraction (10%) of the total urinary EV proteome was shown to play a role in determining personal expression patterns, most of the urinary EV proteins was found to be stable with >90% of the proteins detected in more than 1 person at all timepoints. The variability of urinary EV proteome between different individuals was shown to be significantly higher than personal variation as a result of a small subset (<20%) of proteins. The core interaction network of proteins identified in all individuals revealed EV proteins involved in signaling and localization and sub-clusters enriched for glycolytic activity, protein synthesis, and immune function. Gender-specific expression patterns were detected in the urinary EV proteome, mostly related to hormonal and reproduction pathways. In summary, our findings indicate that the urinary EV proteome is stable in longitudinal samples of healthy subjects, underscoring its potential as a reliable source for protein biomarkers.

Urinary Extracellular Vesicle Whole-Transcriptome Analysis in Diabetic Nephropathy

Project description:Enrolled 24 participants, including twelve renal biopsy-proven T2DN and twelve T2DM, and isolated uEV s by ultracentrifugation to perform adequate parallel microarrays for mRNAs, lncRNAs and circRNAs and sequencing for miRNAs.One hundred mL of first-morning urine was collected.All urine samples were retained and immediately transferred to the laboratory and centrifuged at 2500 x g at 4°C for 15 min using a horizontal rotor (Dynamica V14R Pro, UK) and at 17,000 x g at 4°C for 40 min using a fixed angle rotor (FA15C rotor, Dynamica, UK). Supernatants were filtered using 0.22µm PES filters (Jet Bio-Filtration, Guangzhou, China) and transferred to new centrifuge tubes and stored at -80 degrees. After overnight melting through a 4 degree, ultracentrifuged at 200,000 xg at 4°C for 2h in a fixed angle P45AT rotor (k factor= 130, CP100NX, Hitachi, Tokyo, Japan) and repeat again after resuspending the pellet in PBS. Supernatants were discarded and the pellets were washed in PBS to obtain the uEVs.

Bladder cancer detection by urinary extracellular vesicle mRNA analysis.

Project description:ObjectiveUrinary extracellular vesicles (EV) could be promising biomarkers for urological diseases. In this retrospective feasibility study, we conducted biomarker screening for early stage bladder cancer using EV mRNA analysis.MethodsBiomarker candidates were identified through RNA-seq analysis of urinary EV from patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (N=3), advanced urothelial cancer (N=3), no residual tumor after TURBT (N=2), and healthy and disease controls (N=4). Diagnostic performance was evaluated by RT-qPCR in a larger patient group including bladder cancer (N=173), renal pelvis and ureter cancer (N=33), no residual tumor and non-cancer disease control (N=36).ResultsUrinary EV SLC2A1, GPRC5A and KRT17 were overexpressed in pT1 and higher stage bladder cancer by 20.6-fold, 18.2-fold and 29.5-fold, respectively. These genes allowed detection of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (AUC: 0.56 to 0.64 for pTa, 0.62 to 0.80 for pTis, and 0.82 to 0.86 for pT1) as well as pT2 and higher muscle invasive bladder cancer (AUC: 0.72 to 0.90). Subgroup analysis indicated that these markers could be useful for the detection of cytology-negative/-suspicious and recurrent bladder cancers.ConclusionThree urinary EV mRNA were discovered to be elevated in bladder cancer. Urinary EV mRNA are promising biomarkers of urothelial cancer and worth further investigation.

Urinary Extracellular Vesicle Protein Profiles Discriminate Different Clinical Subgroups of Children with Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome.

Project description:Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) is the most frequent primary glomerular disease in children, displaying high grade proteinuria and oedema. The mainstay of therapy are steroids, and patients are usually classified according to the treatment response (sensitive vs. resistant). The mechanisms involved in INS pathogenesis and treatment responsiveness have not yet been identified. In this context, the analysis of urinary extracellular vesicles (UEv) is interesting, since they represent a molecular snapshot of the parental cells, offering a "fingerprint" for monitoring their status. Therefore, the aim of this study is to verify the feasibility of using UEv of INS patients as indicators of therapy response and its prediction. UEv were isolated from the urine of pediatric patients in remission after therapy; they showed characteristic electrophoresis profiles that matched specific patient subgroups. We then built a statistical model to interpret objectively each patient UEv protein profile: in particular, steroid-resistant patients cluster together with a very distinct pattern from other INS patients and controls. In conclusion, the evaluation of the UEv protein profile looks promising in the investigation of INS, showing a disease signature that might predict clinical evolution.

A urinary extracellular vesicle microRNA biomarker discovery pipeline; from automated extracellular vesicle enrichment by acoustic trapping to microRNA sequencing.

Project description:Development of a robust automated platform for enrichment of extracellular vesicles from low sample volume that matches the needs for next-generation sequencing could remove major hurdles for genomic biomarker discovery. Here, we document a protocol for urinary EVs enrichment by utilizing an automated microfluidic system, termed acoustic trap, followed by next-generation sequencing of microRNAs (miRNAs) for biomarker discovery. Specifically, we compared the sequencing output from two small RNA library preparations, NEXTFlex and CATS, using only 130 pg of input total RNA. The samples prepared using NEXTflex was found to contain larger number of unique miRNAs that was the predominant RNA species whereas rRNA was the dominant RNA species in CATS prepared samples. A strong correlation was found between the miRNA expressions of the acoustic trap technical replicate in the NEXTFlex prepared samples, as well as between the acoustic trap and ultracentrifugation enrichment methods. Together, these results demonstrate a robust and automated strategy for biomarker discovery from small volumes of urine.

Characterization of urinary extracellular vesicle proteins in muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

Project description:The mechanisms of bladder cancer progression are unknown, and new treatments and biomarkers are needed. Patient urinary extracellular vesicles (EVs) derive in part from bladder cancer cells and contain a specific protein cargo which may provide information about the disease. We conducted a proteomics study comparing EVs from the muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) cell line TCCSUP to EVs from normal urothelial line SVHUC. GO term analysis showed that TCCSUP EVs are enriched in proteins associated with the cell membrane, extracellular matrix, and inflammation and angiogenesis signaling pathways. Proteins characteristic of cancer EVs were further screened at the mRNA level in bladder cancer cell lines. In Western blots, three of six proteins examined showed greater than fifteenfold enrichment in patient urinary EVs compared to healthy volunteers (n = 6). Finally, we performed immunohistochemical staining of bladder tissue microarrays for three proteins of interest. One of them, transaldolase (TALDO1), is a nearly ubiquitous enzyme and normally thought to reside in the cytoplasm. To our surprise, nuclei were stained for transaldolase in 94% of MIBC tissue samples (n = 51). While cytoplasmic transaldolase was found in 89-90% of both normal urothelium (n = 79) and non-muscle-invasive samples (n = 71), the rate falls to 39% in MIBC samples (P < 0.001), and negative cytoplasmic staining was correlated with worse cancer-specific survival in MIBC patients (P = 0.008). The differential EV proteomics strategy reported here successfully identified a number of proteins associated with bladder cancer and points the way to future investigation.

Importance of between and within Subject Variability in Extracellular Vesicle Abundance and Cargo when Performing Biomarker Analyses.

Project description:Small extracellular vesicles (sEV) have emerged as a potential rich source of biomarkers in human blood and present the intriguing potential for a 'liquid biopsy' to track disease and the effectiveness of interventions. Recently, we have further demonstrated the potential for EV derived biomarkers to account for variability in drug exposure. This study sought to evaluate the variability in abundance and cargo of global and liver-specific circulating sEV, within (diurnal) and between individuals in a cohort of healthy subjects (n = 10). We present normal ranges for EV concentration and size and expression of generic EV protein markers and the liver-specific asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1) in samples collected in the morning and afternoon. EV abundance and cargo was generally not affected by fasting, except CD9 which exhibited a statistically significant increase (p = 0.018). Diurnal variability was observed in the expression of CD81 and ASGR1, which significantly decreased (p = 0.011) and increased (p = 0.009), respectively. These results have potential implications for study sampling protocols and normalisation of biomarker data when considering the expression of sEV derived cargo as a biomarker strategy. Specifically, the novel finding that liver-specific EVs exhibit diurnal variability in healthy subjects should have broad implications in the study of drug metabolism and development of minimally invasive biomarkers for liver disease.

Proteome-scale correlation analysis between urinary extracellular vesicle (uEV) and kidney

Project description:We profiled the proteomes of uEV and kidney from twelve rats. Six of them were under a standard diet while the other six under a high potassium diet for 4 days. During the revision stage of this project, we further put five rats in metabolic cages for two days, fed with the high potassium diet for 2 days. We made proteome-scale correlation analyses of uEV and kidney using absolute label-free quantification algorithm iBAQ under these three conditions: control, high K 4day, and high K 2 day. We also did label-free quantification (LFQ) to investigate the protein abundance changes in uEV and kidney between control and high K 4day.
