Nevertheless, there is currently no standardized isolation protocol. In a previous publication, we developed a reproducible ultracentrifugation-based protocol (20,000 × <i>g</i> protocol) that allows to classify red blood cell concentrates into three cohorts according to their vesiculation level. Since this protocol was not adapted to meet routine requirements, the goal of this study was to develop an easier method based on low-speed centrifugation (2,000 × <i>g</i> protocol) and limited red blood cell concentrate volumes to match with a non-destructive sampling from the quality control sampling tubing. Despite the presence of contaminants, mainly in the form of albumin and lipoproteins, the material isolated with the 2,000 × <i>g</i> protocol contained red blood cell-derived vesicular structures. It was reproducible, could predict the number of extracellular vesicles obtained with the 20,000 × <i>g</i> protocol and better discriminated between the three vesiculation cohorts than haemolysis at the legal expiry date of 6 weeks. However, by decreasing red blood cell concentrate volumes to fit with the volume in the quality control tubing, particle yield was highly reduced. Therefore, centrifugation time and relative centrifugal force were adapted (1,000 × <i>g</i> protocol), allowing for the recovery of a similar particle number and composition between small and large volumes sampled from the main unit, in different vesiculation cohorts over time. A similar observation was made with the 1,000 × <i>g</i> protocol between small volumes sampled from the quality control tubing and the mother-bag.

In this study, we aimed to define the standardized operating procedures and reference material for fluorescent characterization of EVs with two commonly used EV analytical platforms—nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and nano-flow cytometry (nFCM). We achieved quantitative fluorescence analyses on ZetaView NTA and NanoAnalyzer nFCM instruments, by utilizing yellow-green FluoSpheres (FS) with assigned ERF (equivalent reference fluorophore) values. This standardization technique allowed for fluorescent EV signal to be expressed in ERF units (indicative of bound fluorescent antibodies per EV), thus enabling measurement of target protein marker abundance on individual EVs, and in the whole EV population. The NTA's and nFCM's limits of detection (LoD) were evaluated at 21 and 9 Alexa Fluor 488 (AF488) molecules, respectively. To complement the limited quantification of markers expressed in a few copies per single EV, in-line bulk fluorescence measurements with a plate reader were performed. This provided absolute marker quantification and more insightful analyses of EV heterogeneity and marker stoichiometry. The standardization method outlined in this work unlocks the full analytical potential of NTA and nFCM, enabling cross-platform data comparison.

They have emerged as potential circulating biomarkers for monitoring responses to cancer therapies. This study aimed to comprehensively characterize plasma-carried EVs in hormone receptor-positive (HR⁺) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients treated with first-line CDK4/6 inhibitors (iCDK4/6) combined with endocrine therapy. MBC patients were classified into three groups based on their response to therapy: resistant, intermediate or sensitive. In a prospective cohort, we monitored the concentration of circulating EVs, analyzed their lipid signature and correlated these factors with treatment response. To facilitate the translation of EV research to clinical practice, we established a three-step procedure: (1) EVs were isolated from plasma using semi-automatized size exclusion chromatography (SEC); (2) EV concentration, termed vesiclemia, was determined by drop counting via interferometric light microscopy (ILM); and (3) EV lipid composition was analyzed by mass spectrometry. ILM-based vesiclemia values were highly fluctuating upon iCDK4/6 treatment, while early increase associated with accelerated progression. Of note, vesiclemia remained a steady parameter over a 1-year period in age-matched healthy women. Additionally, analysis of the EV cargo unveiled a distinct sphingolipid profile, characterized by increased levels of ceramides and sphingomyelins in resistant patients within the first 2 months of treatment. Based on 16 sphingolipid species, sensitive and resistant patients were correctly classified with an overall accuracy of 82%. This specific sphingolipid pattern was exclusively discernible within EVs, and not in plasma, highlighting the significance of EVs in the early prediction of individual responses to iCDK4/6 and disease progression. Overall, this study provides insights of the longitudinal characterization of plasma-borne EVs in both a healthy group and HR⁺ MBC patients under iCDK4/6 therapies. Combined vesiclemia and EV sphingolipid profile emphasize the promising potential of EVs as non-invasive biomarkers for monitoring early treatment response.</p>","PeriodicalId":73747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of extracellular biology","volume":"3 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11650302/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142848623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of EVs as biomarkers for diagnosis and as delivery vehicles for treatment in a wide range of human disease is a rapidly growing field in research and clinical practice. We hypothesized that electric fields (EFs) could influence the release and content of EVs. To examine this hypothesis, we developed a specialized bioreactor enabling cells to thrive in a three-dimensional setting, replicating in-vivo conditions amidst programmable EF environments. We established a three-step EV purification protocol to achieve high-density production of EVs. We also performed mass spectrometry-based proteomics analysis on EV-carrying proteins and used high-resolution nanoparticle flowcytometry for single-vesicle analysis. Findings from this report suggest that electrical stimulation, employing physiologically relevant amplitudes typical in therapeutic deep brain stimulation, influences the release of EVs and their cargo content in a frequency-dependent fashion. This conclusion could carry significant implications for both fundamental biological understanding and medical advancements. First, it raises an intriguing question about how the endogenous electrical activity of neuronal and other cellular assemblies influence the production and composition of EVs. Second, it reveals a novel underlying mechanism of how therapeutic electrical stimulations can modulate EVs and treat human brain disorders.

They play a significant role in the physiology and pathology of type-2 diabetes (T2D) due to disrupted intercellular communication. The role of MVBs and their influence on insulin secretory granules (ISGs) of β-cells or their characterization is yet to be uncovered. In our study, we compared MVBs to largely well-characterized ISGs in β-cells. This study compares the density, localization, and exocytosis of CD63+ compartments (CD63+c) with NPY labelled ISGs (NISGs) in β-cells. For this, tetraspanin CD63 was exploited to majorly label MVBs in β-cells. These labels preserve the structural integrity of labelled compartments and mostly do not localize with other endo-lysosomal compartments. This study showed that the β-cells have a significantly higher density of NISGs than CD63+c. CD63+c and NISGs are spatially localized apart within β-cells. The proteins that localize with CD63+c are different from the ones that localize with NISGs. Exocytosis of NISGs occurs at the periphery of the β-cells and takes significantly less time when compared to the release of CD63+c, which is non-peripheral and takes a longer duration. Mechanistically, the availability of CD63+c for exocytosis was assessed and found that an equilibrium is maintained between docking and undocking states at the plasma membrane. Although there are a high number of short-term residing, visiting CD63+c at the plasma membrane, the availability of CD63+c for exocytosis is maintained due to docking and undocking states. Further, a significant reduction in the density of NISGs and CD63+c was observed in β-cells isolated from T2D donors compared to healthy counterparts. Studying the effect of MVBs on insulin secretion in physiological and T2D conditions has huge potential. This study provides a strong basis to open new avenues for such future studies.</p>","PeriodicalId":73747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of extracellular biology","volume":"3 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jex2.70014","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142749104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
