Rapid and in-depth proteomic profiling of small extracellular vesicles for ultralow samples
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The form and function of extracellular vesicles (EV) is defined by their proteome. This knowledge is essential to describe and understand EVs, encompassing their marker proteins, capacity as a signalling platform, and utility as diagnostic tools and therapeutic targets. However, EV are low-abundant entities in the secreteome and biological samples, with disease-specific EV proteins often present in low abundance challenging their detection and quantification due to the inherent challenges in dynamic range using mass spectrometry-based strategies. Combined with lack of protein amplification mechanisms, their proteomic studies require upscaling cell cultures or larger volumes of biofluids. Here, we outline high-sensitivity sample preparation and finely tuned LC gradients for DIA to obtain precise and comprehensive proteome of EVs from ultra-low sample amounts (sub-nanogram).
