Project description:In this study, we characterized the proteomic composition of extracellular vesicles released from human THP-1 monocytes challenged with the pneumococcal pore-forming toxin, pneumolysin. We found that the vesicles shed from pneumolysin challenged cells are selectively enriched in key inflammatory host proteins relative to vesicles from untreated cells.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are biomolecule carriers for intercellular communication in health and disease. Nef is a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) virulence factor that is released from cells within EVs and is present in plasma EVs of HIV-1 infected individuals. We performed a quantitative proteomic analysis to fully characterize the Nef-induced changes in protein composition of T cell-derived EVs and identify novel host targets of HIV. Several proteins with well-described roles in infection or not previously associated with HIV pathogenesis were specifically modulated by Nef in EVs. Among the downregulated proteins are the interferon-induced transmembrane 1, 2 and 3 proteins (IFITM1-3), broad-spectrum antiviral factors known to be cell-to-cell transferable by EVs. Our data establish Nef as a modulator of EVs' global protein content and as an HIV factor that antagonizes IFITMs.

Project description:The fibroblast-populated 3D collagen matrix has been used to study the effect of mechanical stress on cell fate; this process is relevant to the fields of wound healing and tissue engineering. Gene array data was generated from mechanically stressed vs. stress-released matrices. The parameters of the collagen matrix model were: collagen type = bovine type I; collagen concentration = 1.5 mg/mL; initial matrix volume = 0.2 mL; initial matrix diameter = 11 mm (cultured in 24-well plates); cell type = human foreskin fibroblast, passage <10; initial matrix cell concentration = 1,000,000 cell/mL (200,000 cell/matrix); culture medium = 5% FBS in DMEM with 1 M-BM-5g/mL ascorbate. Matrices (n = 6 per experimental group) were incubated for 24 hr in the attached state; the released groups then underwent matrix detachment from the culture plate (defined as t = 0), while the attached groups were left undisturbed. RNA was isolated from attached and released matrices 6 and 24 hr after t = 0. Gene expression in the attached vs. released condition at 6 or 24 hr then was analyzed by hybridizing the anti-sense RNA derived from attached and released matrices at a given time point onto a single chip. Refer to the attached Figure 1 for the experimental design. The index experiment was defined as the comparison of gene expression in attached vs. released collagen matrices in a single strain of human foreskin fibroblasts at 6 and 24 hr after stress-release (i.e., after t = 0). Each experiment utilized two mechanical conditions (attached and released) at two time points (6 and 24 hr). So with each condition utilizing 6 matrices, each index experiment required a total of 24 matrices. In each index experiment, the chip hybridizations were: (i) 6 hr attached vs. 6 hr released, and (ii) 24 hr attached vs. 24 hr released (i.e., two gene chips per index experiment). Each hybridization was done using a 10K spotted gene chip manufactured in the UNMC Microarray Core Facility. The index experiment was performed on three fibroblast strains, meaning that expressional data was derived from three foreskin donors (nonpooled samples). Dye-swap was not performed; dye assigned to attached vs. released remained constant among all chips. Since the index experiment was performed three times, the total number of gene chips used for this entire dataset was six.

Project description:Lipedema is a chronic, progressive disease of adipose tissue with lack of consistent diagnostic criteria. The aim of this study was a thorough comparative characterization of extracellular microRNAs (miRNAs) from the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of healthy and lipedema adipose tissue. For this, we analyzed 187 extracellular miRNAs in concentrated conditioned medium (cCM) and specifically in small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) enriched thereof by size exclusion chromatography. No significant difference in median particle size and concentration was observed between sEV fractions in healthy and lipedema. We found the majority of miRNAs located predominantly in cCM compared to sEV enriched fraction. Surprisingly, hierarchical clustering of the most variant miRNAs showed that only sEVmiRNA profiles - but not cCMmiRNAs - were impacted by lipedema. Seven sEVmiRNAs (miR-16-5p, miR-29a-3p, miR-24-3p, miR-454-p, miR-144-5p, miR-130a-3p, let-7c-5p) were differently regulated in lipedema and healthy individuals, whereas only one cCMmiRNA (miR-188-5p) was significantly downregulated in lipedema. Comparing SVF from healthy and lipedema patients, we identified sEVs as the lipedema relevant miRNA fraction. This study contributes to identify the potential role of SVF secreted miRNAs in lipedema.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are minute particles secreted by the cells of living organisms. Although the functional role of EVs is not yet clear, recent work has highlighted their role in intercellular communication. Here, we expand on this view by suggesting that EVs can also mediate communication among interacting organisms such as hosts, pathogens and vectors. This inter-kingdom communication via EVs is likely to have important evolutionary consequences ranging from adaptation of parasites to specialized niches in the host, to host resistance and evolution and maintenance of parasite virulence and transmissibility. A potential system to explore these consequences is the interaction among the human host, the mosquito vector and Plasmodium parasite involved in the malaria disease. Indeed, recent studies have found that EVs derived from Plasmodium infected red blood cells in humans are likely mediating the parasite's transition from the asexual to sexual stage, which might facilitate transmission to the mosquito vector. However, more work is needed to establish the adaptive consequences of this EV signaling among different taxa. We suggest that an integrative molecular approach, including a comparative phylogenetic analysis of the molecules (e.g., proteins and nucleic acids) derived from the EVs of interacting organisms (and their closely-related species) in the malaria system will prove useful for understanding interkingdom communication. Such analyses will also shed light on the evolution and persistence of host, parasite and vector interactions, with implications for the control of vector borne infectious diseases.

Project description:Increasing pre-clinical data suggest that chemotherapy may elicit pro-metastatic responses in breast cancer models. Primary tumours release extracellular vesicles (EVs) that can facilitate the seeding and growth of metastatic cancer cells in distant organs, but the effects of chemotherapy on pro-metastatic EVs are poorly understood. The goal of the project was to analyse the protein content in EVs released by the mouse breast cancer cell line 4T1 after treatment with the chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel (PTX) or its vehicle control cremophor (CREMO).

Project description:BackgroundTrichoderma reesei is the most important industrial producer of lignocellulolytic enzymes. These enzymes play an important role in biomass degradation leading to novel applications of this fungus in the biotechnology industry, specifically biofuel production. The secretory pathway of fungi is responsible for transporting proteins addressed to different cellular locations involving some cellular endomembrane systems. Although protein secretion is an extremely efficient process in T. reesei, the mechanisms underlying protein secretion have remained largely uncharacterized in this organism.ResultsHere, we report for the first time the isolation and characterization of T. reesei extracellular vesicles (EVs). Using proteomic analysis under cellulose culture condition, we have confidently identified 188 vesicular proteins belonging to different functional categories. Also, we characterized EVs production using transmission electron microscopy in combination with light scattering analysis. Biochemical assays revealed that T. reesei extracellular vesicles have an enrichment of filter paper (FPase) and β-glucosidase activities in purified vesicles from 24, 72 and 96, and 72 and 96 h, respectively. Furthermore, our results showed that there is a slight enrichment of small RNAs inside the vesicles after 96 h and 120 h, and presence of hsp proteins inside the vesicles purified from T. reesei grown in the presence of cellulose.ConclusionsThis work points to important insights into a better understanding of the cellular mechanisms underlying the regulation of cellulolytic enzyme secretion in this fungus.

Project description:Recent studies on extracellular RNA raised awareness that extracellular vesicles (EVs) isolated from cultured cells may co-purify RNAs derived from media supplements such as fetal bovine serum (FBS) confounding EV-associated RNA. Defined culture media supplemented with a range of nutrient components provide an alternative to FBS addition and allow EV-collection under full medium conditions avoiding starvation and cell stress during the collection period. However, the potential contribution of serum-free media supplements to EV-RNA contamination has remained elusive and has never been assessed. Here, we report that RNA isolated from EVs harvested from cells under serum-replacement conditions includes miRNA contaminants carried into the sample by defined media components. Subjecting unconditioned, EV-free medium to differential centrifugation followed by reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) on RNA isolated from the pellet resulted in detection of miRNAs that had been classified as EV-enriched by RNA-seq or RT-qPCR of an isolated EV-fraction. Ribonuclease (RNase-A) and detergent treatment removed most but not all of the contaminating miRNAs. Further analysis of the defined media constituents identified Catalase as a main source of miRNAs co-isolating together with EVs. Hence, miRNA contaminants can be carried into EV-samples even under serum-free harvesting conditions using culture media that are expected to be chemically defined. Formulation of miRNA-free media supplements may provide a solution to collect EVs clean from confounding miRNAs, which however still remains a challenging task. Differential analysis of EVs collected under full medium and supplement-deprived conditions appears to provide a strategy to discriminate confounding and EV-associated RNA. In conclusion, we recommend careful re-evaluation and validation of EV small RNA-seq and RT-qPCR datasets by determining potential medium background.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are present in all body fluids. Shed by cells, their molecular make-up reflects that of their cell of origin and/or tissue pathological situation. Our working hypothesis was that analyzing the protein composition, protein abundance, and functional clustering of EVs released by peritoneal exudate cells (PECs) in the pristane experimental lupus model would allow us to identify predictive or diagnostic biomarkers that might discriminate the autoimmunity process in lupus from inflammatory reactions and/or normal physiological processes. Three pools of PE-EVs were isolated from pristane-treated mice (WT versus Cd38-/- mice) by qEV size exclusion column methodology (F5-12, F5-10 and F11-12). Protein extracts were analyzed by LC-MS/MS. Protein identification was performed with ProteinScape, and MASCOT data searching using Swiss-Prot database. For relative quantification the emPAI-based method was used. The functional enrichment analysis was based on the latest publicly available data from multiple annotation and ontology resources that can be automatically accessed through ClueGO + CluePedia apps within Cytoscape environment. STRING app and EnrichR tools were also used. Gene Ontology (GO) and signaling pathways enrichment analyses of F5-10 and F11-12 PE-EVs via ClueGO analyses showed that the proteins clustered in functionally distinct GO terms and signaling pathways. Moreover, the predominance of given GO terms in PE-EVs seemed to vary with the extent of the inflammatory/autoimmune reaction to pristane. Compared with the protein content and protein abundance in PECs (mainly Ly6Chi inflammatory monocytes and neutrophils), PE-EVs showed an enrichment in neutrophil-associated functions, in particular in PE-EVs from Cd38-/- mice.
