Study summary Full title HIV Nef is secreted in exosomes and triggers apoptosis in bystander CD4+ T cells All authors Lenassi M, Cagney G, Liao M, Vaupotic T, Bartholomeeusen K, Cheng Y, Krogan NJ, Plemenitas A, Peterlin BM Journal Traffic Abstract The HIV accessory protein negative factor (Nef) is one of the earliest and most abundantly expressed (show more...)The HIV accessory protein negative factor (Nef) is one of the earliest and most abundantly expressed viral proteins. It is also found in the serum of infected individuals (Caby MP, Lankar D, Vincendeau-Scherrer C, Raposo G, Bonnerot C. Exosomal-like vesicles are present in human blood plasma. Int Immunol 2005;17:879-887). Extracellular Nef protein has deleterious effects on CD4(+) T cells (James CO, Huang MB, Khan M, Garcia-Barrio M, Powell MD, Bond VC. Extracellular Nef protein targets CD4(+) T cells for apoptosis by interacting with CXCR4 surface receptors. J Virol 2004;78:3099-3109), the primary targets of HIV, and can suppress immunoglobulin class switching in bystander B cells (Qiao X, He B, Chiu A, Knowles DM, Chadburn A, Cerutti A. Human immunodeficiency virus 1 Nef suppresses CD40-dependent immunoglobulin class switching in bystander B cells. Nat Immunol 2006;7:302-310). Nevertheless, the mode of exit of Nef from infected cells remains a conundrum. We found that Nef stimulates its own export via the release of exosomes from all cells examined. Depending on its intracellular location, these Nef exosomes form at the plasma membrane, late endosomes or both compartments in Jurkat, SupT1 and primary T cells, respectively. Nef release through exosomes is conserved also during HIV-1 infection of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs). Released Nef exosomes cause activation-induced cell death of resting PBLs in vitro. Thus, HIV-infected cells export Nef in bioactive vesicles, which facilitate the depletion of CD4(+) T cells that is a hallmark of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Here we show that these MSCs secreted 50- to 100-nm particles. These particles could be visualized by electron microscopy and were shown to be phospholipid vesicles consisting of cholesterol, sphingomyelin, and phosphatidylcholine. They contained coimmunoprecipitating exosome-associated proteins, e.g., CD81, CD9, and Alix. These particles were purified as a homogeneous population of particles with a hydrodynamic radius of 55-65 nm by size-exclusion fractionation on a HPLC. Together these observations indicated that these particles are exosomes. These purified exosomes reduced infarct size in a mouse model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Therefore, MSC mediated its cardioprotective paracrine effect by secreting exosomes. This novel role of exosomes highlights a new perspective into intercellular mediation of tissue injury and repair, and engenders novel approaches to the development of biologics for tissue repair.

Study summary Full title Human tumor virus utilizes exosomes for intercellular communication All authors Meckes DG Jr, Shair KH, Marquitz AR, Kung CP, Edwards RH, Raab-Traub N Journal Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A Abstract The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is expressed in multiple human maligna (show more...)The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is expressed in multiple human malignancies and has potent effects on cell growth. It has been detected in exosomes and shown to inhibit immune function. Exosomes are small secreted cellular vesicles that contain proteins, mRNAs, and microRNAs (miRNAs). When produced by malignant cells, they can promote angiogenesis, cell proliferation, tumor-cell invasion, and immune evasion. In this study, exosomes released from nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells harboring latent EBV were shown to contain LMP1, signal transduction molecules, and virus-encoded miRNAs. Exposure to these NPC exosomes activated the ERK and AKT signaling pathways in the recipient cells. Interestingly, NPC exosomes also contained viral miRNAs, several of which were enriched in comparison with their intracellular levels. LMP1 induces expression of the EGF receptor in an EBV-negative epithelial cell line, and exosomes produced by these cells also contain high levels of EGF receptor in exosomes. These findings suggest that the effects of EBV and LMP1 on cellular expression also modulate exosome content and properties. The exosomes may manipulate the tumor microenvironment to influence the growth of neighboring cells through the intercellular transfer of LMP1, signaling molecules, and viral miRNAs.

Study summary Full title Dendritic cells recruit T cell exosomes via exosomal LFA-1 leading to inhibition of CD8+ CTL responses through downregulation of peptide/MHC class I and Fas ligand-mediated cytotoxicity All authors Xie Y, Zhang H, Li W, Deng Y, Munegowda MA, Chibbar R, Qureshi M, Xiang J Journal J Immunol Abstract Active T cells release bioactive exosomes (EXOs). However, its potential modulation in immune respon (show more...)Active T cells release bioactive exosomes (EXOs). However, its potential modulation in immune responses is elusive. In this study, we in vitro generated active OVA-specific CD8(+) T cells by cultivation of OVA-pulsed dendritic cells (DC(OVA)) with naive CD8(+) T cells derived from OVA-specific TCR transgenic OTI mice and purified EXOs from CD8(+) T cell culture supernatant by differential ultracentrifugation. We then investigated the suppressive effect of T cell EXOs on DC(OVA)-mediated CD8(+) CTL responses and antitumor immunity. We found that DC(OVA) uptake OTI T cell EXOs expressing OVA-specific TCRs and Fas ligand via peptide/MHC Ag I-TCR and CD54-LFA-1 interactions leading to downregulation of peptide/MHC Ag I expression and induction of apoptosis of DC(OVA) via Fas/Fas ligand pathway. We demonstrated that OVA-specific OTI T cell EXOs, but not lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus-specific TCR transgenic mouse CD8(+) T cell EXOs, can inhibit DC(OVA)-stimulated CD8(+) CTL responses and antitumor immunity against OVA-expressing B16 melanoma. In addition, these T cell EXOs can also inhibit DC(OVA)-mediated CD8(+) CTL-induced diabetes in transgenic rat insulin promoter-mOVA mice. Interestingly, the anti-LFA-1 Ab treatment significantly reduces T cell EXO-induced inhibition of CD8(+) CTL responses in both antitumor immunity and autoimmunity. EXOs released from T cell hybridoma RF3370 cells expressing OTI CD8(+) TCRs have a similar inhibitory effect as T cell EXOs in DC(OVA)-stimulated CTL responses and antitumor immunity. Therefore, our data indicate that Ag-specific CD8(+) T cells can modulate immune responses via T cell-released EXOs, and T cell EXOs may be useful for treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Study summary Full title Membrane-bound HSP70-engineered myeloma cell-derived exosomes stimulate more efficient CD8(+) CTL- and NK-mediated antitumour immunity than exosomes released from heat-shocked tumour cells expressing cytoplasmic HSP70 All authors Xie Y, Bai O, Zhang H, Yuan J, Zong S, Chibbar R, Slattery K, Qureshi M, Wei Y, Deng Y, Xiang J Journal J Cell Mol Med Abstract Exosomes (EXO) derived from tumour cells have been used to stimulate antitumour immune responses, bu (show more...)Exosomes (EXO) derived from tumour cells have been used to stimulate antitumour immune responses, but only resulting in prophylatic immunity. Tumour-derived heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) molecules are molecular chaperones with a broad repertoire of tumour antigen peptides capable of stimulating dendritic cell (DC) maturation and T-cell immune responses. To enhance EXO-based antitumour immunity, we generated an engineered myeloma cell line J558(HSP) expressing endogenous P1A tumour antigen and transgenic form of membrane-bound HSP70 and heat-shocked J558(HS) expressing cytoplasmic HSP70, and purified EXO(HSP) and EXO(HS) from J558(HSP) and J558(HS) tumour cell culture supernatants by ultracentrifugation. We found that EXO(HSP) were able to more efficiently stimulate maturation of DCs with up-regulation of Ia(b) , CD40, CD80 and inflammatory cytokines than EXO(HS) after overnight incubation of immature bone-marrow-derived DCs (5 × 10? cells) with EXO (100 ?g), respectively. We also i.v. immunized BALB/c mice with EXO (30 ?g/mouse) and assessed P1A-specific T-cell responses after immunization. We demonstrate that EXO(HSP) are able to stimulate type 1 CD4(+) helper T (Th1) cell responses, and more efficient P1A-specific CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses and antitumour immunity than EXO(HS) . In addition, we further elucidate that EXO(HSP) -stimulated antitumour immunity is mediated by both P1A-specific CD8(+) CTL and non-P1A-specific natural killer (NK) responses. Therefore, membrane-bound HSP70-expressing tumour cell-released EXO may represent a more effective EXO-based vaccine in induction of antitumour immunity.

Study summary Full title Cancer exosomes trigger fibroblast to myofibroblast differentiation All authors Webber J, Steadman R, Mason MD, Tabi Z, Clayton A Journal Cancer Res Abstract There is a growing interest in the cell-cell communication roles in cancer mediated by secreted vesi (show more...)There is a growing interest in the cell-cell communication roles in cancer mediated by secreted vesicles termed exosomes. In this study, we examined whether exosomes produced by cancer cells could transmit information to normal stromal fibroblasts and trigger a cellular response. We found that some cancer-derived exosomes could trigger elevated ?-smooth muscle actin expression and other changes consistent with the process of fibroblast differentiation into myofibroblasts. We show that TGF-? is expressed at the exosome surface in association with the transmembrane proteoglycan betaglycan. Although existing in a latent state, this complex was fully functional in eliciting SMAD-dependent signaling. Inhibiting either signaling or betaglycan expression attenuated differentiation. While the kinetics and overall magnitude of the response were similar to that achieved with soluble TGF-?, we identified important qualitative differences unique to the exosomal route of TGF-? delivery, as exemplified by a significant elevation in fibroblast FGF2 production. This hitherto unknown trigger for instigating cellular differentiation in a distinctive manner has major implications for mechanisms underlying cancer-recruited stroma, fibrotic diseases, and wound-healing responses.

Study summary Full title Cardiomyocyte progenitor cell-derived exosomes stimulate migration of endothelial cells All authors Vrijsen KR, Sluijter JP, Schuchardt MW, van Balkom BW, Noort WA, Chamuleau SA, Doevendans PA Journal J Cell Mol Med Abstract Patients suffering from heart failure as a result of myocardial infarction are in need of heart tran (show more...)Patients suffering from heart failure as a result of myocardial infarction are in need of heart transplantation. Unfortunately the number of donor hearts is very low and therefore new therapies are subject of investigation. Cell transplantation therapy upon myocardial infarction is a very promising strategy to replace the dead myocardium with viable cardiomyocytes, smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells, thereby reducing scarring and improving cardiac performance. Despite promising results, resulting in reduced infarct size and improved cardiac function on short term, only a few cells survive the ischemic milieu and are retained in the heart, thereby minimizing long-term effects. Although new capillaries and cardiomyocytes are formed around the infarcted area, only a small percentage of the transplanted cells can be detected months after myocardial infarction. This suggests the stimulation of an endogenous regenerative capacity of the heart upon cell transplantation, resulting from release of growth factor, cytokine and other paracrine molecules by the progenitor cells--the so-called paracrine hypothesis. Here, we focus on a relative new component of paracrine signalling, i.e. exosomes. We are interested in the release and function of exosomes derived from cardiac progenitor cells and studied their effects on the migratory capacity of endothelial cells.

Study summary Full title Exosome-driven antigen transfer for MHC class II presentation facilitated by the receptor binding activity of influenza hemagglutinin All authors Testa JS, Apcher GS, Comber JD, Eisenlohr LC Journal J Immunol Abstract The mechanisms underlying MHC class I-restricted cross-presentation, the transfer of Ag from an infe (show more...)The mechanisms underlying MHC class I-restricted cross-presentation, the transfer of Ag from an infected cell to a professional APC, have been studied in great detail. Much less is known about the equivalent process for MHC class II-restricted presentation. After infection or transfection of class II-negative donor cells, we observed minimal transfer of a proteasome-dependent class I-like epitope within the influenza neuraminidase glycoprotein but potent transfer of a classical, H-2M-dependent epitope within the hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein. Additional experiments determined transfer to be exosome-mediated and substantially enhanced by the receptor binding activity of incorporated HA. Furthermore, a carrier effect was observed in that incorporated HA improved exosome-mediated transfer of a second membrane protein. This route of Ag presentation should be relevant to other enveloped viruses, may skew CD4(+) responses toward exosome-incorporated glycoproteins, and points toward novel vaccine strategies.

The frequency and suppressor functions of peripheral blood CD4(+)CD25(high)FOXP3(+) Treg are higher in patients with cancer than normal controls. The hypothesis is tested that TMV contribute to induction/expansion/and activation of human Treg. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: TMV isolated from supernatants of tumor cells but not normal cells induced the generation and enhanced expansion of human Treg. TMV also mediated conversion of CD4(+)CD25(neg) T cells into CD4(+)CD25(high)FOXP3(+) Treg. Upon co-incubation with TMV, Treg showed an increased FasL, IL-10, TGF-beta1, CTLA-4, granzyme B and perforin expression (p<0.05) and mediated stronger suppression of responder cell (RC) proliferation (p<0.01). Purified Treg were resistant to TMV-mediated apoptosis relative to other T cells. TMV also increased phospho-SMAD2/3 and phospho-STAT3 expression in Treg. Neutralizing Abs specific for TGF-beta1 and/or IL-10 significantly inhibited TMV ability to expand Treg. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: This study suggests that TMV have immunoregulatory properties. They induce Treg, promote Treg expansion, up-regulate Treg suppressor function and enhance Treg resistance to apoptosis. Interactions of TMV with Treg represent a newly-defined mechanism that might be involved in regulating peripheral tolerance by tumors and in supporting immune evasion of human cancers.

Study summary Full title A novel nanoparticle drug delivery system: the anti-inflammatory activity of curcumin is enhanced when encapsulated in exosomes All authors Sun D, Zhuang X, Xiang X, Liu Y, Zhang S, Liu C, Barnes S, Grizzle W, Miller D, Zhang HG Journal Mol Ther Abstract Monocyte-derived myeloid cells play vital roles in inflammation-related autoimmune/inflammatory dise (show more...)Monocyte-derived myeloid cells play vital roles in inflammation-related autoimmune/inflammatory diseases and cancers. Here, we report that exosomes can deliver anti-inflammatory agents, such as curcumin, to activated myeloid cells in vivo. This technology provides a means for anti-inflammatory drugs, such as curcumin, to target the inflammatory cells as well as to overcome unwanted off-target effects that limit their utility. Using exosomes as a delivery vehicle, we provide evidence that curcumin delivered by exosomes is more stable and more highly concentrated in the blood. We show that the target specificity is determined by exosomes, and the improvement of curcumin activity is achieved by directing curcumin to inflammatory cells associated with therapeutic, but not toxic, effects. Furthermore, we validate the therapeutic relevance of this technique in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic shock mouse model. We further show that exosomes, but not lipid alone, are required for the enhanced anti-inflammatory activity of curcumin. The specificity of using exosomes as a drug carrier creates opportunities for treatments of many inflammation-related diseases without significant side effects due to innocent bystander or off-target effects.

Interestingly, miRNAs are secreted actively through small vesicles called exosomes that protect them from degradation by RNases, suggesting that these miRNAs may function outside the cell in which they were produced. Here we demonstrate that miRNAs secreted by EBV-infected cells are transferred to and act in uninfected recipient cells. Using a quantitative RT-PCR approach, we demonstrate that mature EBV-encoded miRNAs are secreted by EBV-infected B cells through exosomes. These EBV-miRNAs are functional because internalization of exosomes by MoDC results in a dose-dependent, miRNA-mediated repression of confirmed EBV target genes, including CXCL11/ITAC, an immunoregulatory gene down-regulated in primary EBV-associated lymphomas. We demonstrate that throughout coculture of EBV-infected B cells EBV-miRNAs accumulate in noninfected neighboring MoDC and show that this accumulation is mediated by transfer of exosomes. Thus, the exogenous EBV-miRNAs transferred through exosomes are delivered to subcellular sites of gene repression in recipient cells. Finally, we show in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with increased EBV load that, although EBV DNA is restricted to the circulating B-cell population, EBV BART miRNAs are present in both B-cell and non-B-cell fractions, suggestive of miRNA transfer. Taken together our findings are consistent with miRNA-mediated gene silencing as a potential mechanism of intercellular communication between cells of the immune system that may be exploited by the persistent human gamma-herpesvirus EBV.

Here, we observed that hypoxic or reoxygenated A431 carcinoma cells exhibited enhanced angiogenic and metastatic potential such as reduced cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adhesion, increased invasiveness, and production of a secretion with increased chorioallantoic membrane angiogenic activity. Consistent with these observations, quantitative proteomics revealed that under hypoxia the tumor cells secreted proteins involved in angiogenesis, focal adhesion, extracellular matrix-receptor interaction, and immune cell recruitment. Unexpectedly, the secreted proteins were predominantly cytoplasmic and membrane proteins. Ultracentrifugation at 100,000 x g precipitated 54% of the secreted proteins and enriched for many exosome-associated proteins such as the tetraspanins and Alix and also proteins with the potential to facilitate angiogenesis and metastasis. Two tetraspanins, CD9 and CD81, co-immunoprecipitated. Together, these data suggested that tumor cells secrete proteins and exosomes with the potential to modulate their microenvironment and facilitate angiogenesis and metastasis.

They are ubiquitous in most body fluids (breast milk, saliva, blood, urine, malignant ascites, amniotic, bronchoalveolar lavage, and synovial fluids). In particular, exosomes secreted in human saliva contain proteins and nucleic acids that could be exploited for diagnostic purposes. To investigate this potential use, we isolated exosomes from human saliva and characterized their structural and transcriptome contents. METHODOLOGY: Exosomes were purified by differential ultracentrifugation and identified by immunoelectron microscopy (EM), flow cytometry, and Western blot with CD63 and Alix antibodies. We then described the morphology, shape, size distribution, and density using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Microarray analysis revealed that 509 mRNA core transcripts are relatively stable and present in the exosomes. Exosomal mRNA stability was determined by detergent lysis with RNase A treatment. In vitro, fluorescently labeled saliva exosomes could communicate with human keratinocytes, transferring their genetic information to human oral keratinocytes to alter gene expression at a new location. CONCLUSION: Our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that exosomes shuttle RNA between cells and that the RNAs present in the exosomes may be a possible resource for disease diagnostics.

Exosomes could be involved in intercellular communication and in the pathogenesis of infectious and degenerative diseases. The molecular mechanisms of exosome biogenesis and secretion are, however, poorly understood. Using an RNA interference (RNAi) screen, we identified five Rab GTPases that promote exosome secretion in HeLa cells. Among these, Rab27a and Rab27b were found to function in MVE docking at the plasma membrane. The size of MVEs was strongly increased by Rab27a silencing, whereas MVEs were redistributed towards the perinuclear region upon Rab27b silencing. Thus, the two Rab27 isoforms have different roles in the exosomal pathway. In addition, silencing two known Rab27 effectors, Slp4 (also known as SYTL4, synaptotagmin-like 4) and Slac2b (also known as EXPH5, exophilin 5), inhibited exosome secretion and phenocopied silencing of Rab27a and Rab27b, respectively. Our results therefore strengthen the link between MVEs and exosomes, and introduce ways of manipulating exosome secretion in vivo.

These findings strongly suggest that LGI3 is involved in the endocytosis system in the brain; however, the precise function of LGI3 remains unclear. Here, we show that LGI3 interacts with flotillin-1 (Flo1), and RNA interference analysis shows that LGI3 stabilized Flo1, and Flo1 also stabilized LGI3 vice versa. Moreover, the downregulation of the LGI3/Flo1 complex altered beta-amyloid precursor protein trafficking directly to late endosomes and disrupted exosome formation, suggesting that LGI3 is involved not only in endocytosis but also in another intracellular transport system through binding with its co-factor such as Flo1.

DESIGN: Exosomes isolated from fresh and frozen glandular and whole human saliva were used as a source of miRNAs. The presence of miRNAs was validated with TaqMan quantitative PCR and miRNA microarrays. RESULTS: We successfully isolated exosomes from human saliva from healthy controls and a patient with Sjögren's syndrome. microRNAs extracted from the exosomal fraction were sufficient for quantitative PCR and microarray profiling. CONCLUSIONS: The isolation of miRNAs from easily and non-invasively obtained salivary exosomes with subsequent characterization of the miRNA expression patterns is promising for the development of future biomarkers of the diagnosis and prognosis of various salivary gland pathologies.

Current treatments are not effective in targeting metastasis. The molecular chaperone hsp90alpha is secreted from invasive cancer cells and activates MMP-2 to enhance invasiveness, required for the first step in metastasis. METHODS: We analyzed the morphology and motility of invasive cancer cells that were treated with exogenous exosomes in the presence or absence of hsp90alpha. We performed mass spectrometry and immunoprecipitation to identify plasminogen as a potential client protein of extracellular hsp90alpha. Plasmin activation assays and migration assays were performed to test if plasminogen is activated by extracellular hsp90alpha and has a role in migration. RESULTS: We found that hsp90alpha is secreted in exosomes in invasive cancer cells and it contributes to their invasive nature. We identified a novel interaction between hsp90alpha and tissue plasminogen activator that together with annexin II, also found in exosomes, activates plasmin. Extracellular hsp90alpha promotes plasmin activation as well as increases plasmin dependent cell motility. CONCLUSIONS: Our data indicate that hsp90alpha is released by invasive cancer cells via exosomes and implicates hsp90alpha in activating plasmin, a second protease that acts in cancer cell invasion.

Study summary Full title Inhibition of LINE-1 and Alu retrotransposition by exosomes encapsidating APOBEC3G and APOBEC3F All authors Khatua AK, Taylor HE, Hildreth JE, Popik W Journal Virology Abstract Human cytidine deaminases, including APOBEC3G (A3G) and A3F, are part of a cellular defense system a (show more...)Human cytidine deaminases, including APOBEC3G (A3G) and A3F, are part of a cellular defense system against retroviruses and retroelements including non-LTR retrotransposons LINE-1 (L1) and Alu. Expression of cellular A3 proteins is sufficient for inhibition of L1 and Alu retrotransposition, but the effect of A3 proteins transferred in exosomes on retroelement mobilization is unknown. Here, we demonstrate for the first time that exosomes secreted by CD4(+)H9 T cells and mature monocyte-derived dendritic cells encapsidate A3G and A3F and inhibit L1 and Alu retrotransposition. A3G is the major contributor to the inhibitory activity of exosomes, however, the contribution of A3F in H9 exosomes cannot be excluded. Additionally, we show that exosomes encapsidate mRNAs coding for A3 proteins. A3G mRNA, and less so A3F, was enriched in exosomes secreted by H9 cells. Exosomal A3G mRNA was functional in vitro. Whether exosomes inhibit retrotransposons in vivo requires further investigation.

Study summary Full title Regulation of exosome secretion by Rab35 and its GTPase-activating proteins TBC1D10A-C All authors Hsu C, Morohashi Y, Yoshimura S, Manrique-Hoyos N, Jung S, Lauterbach MA, Bakhti M, Grønborg M, Möbius W, Rhee J, Barr FA, Simons M Journal J Cell Biol Abstract Oligodendrocytes secrete vesicles into the extracellular space, where they might play a role in neur (show more...)Oligodendrocytes secrete vesicles into the extracellular space, where they might play a role in neuron-glia communication. These exosomes are small vesicles with a diameter of 50-100 nm that are formed within multivesicular bodies and are released after fusion with the plasma membrane. The intracellular pathways that generate exosomes are poorly defined. Because Rab family guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) together with their regulators are important membrane trafficking organizers, we investigated which Rab GTPase-activating proteins interfere with exosome release. We find that TBC1D10A-C regulate exosome secretion in a catalytic activity-dependent manner. We show that Rab35 is the target of TBC1D10A-C and that the inhibition of Rab35 function leads to intracellular accumulation of endosomal vesicles and impairs exosome secretion. Rab35 localizes to the surface of oligodendroglia in a GTP-dependent manner, where it increases the density of vesicles, suggesting a function in docking or tethering. These findings provide a basis for understanding the biogenesis and function of exosomes in the central nervous system.

The present paper, for the first time, provides evidence that Glioblastoma and Astrocyte cells release microvesicles, which carry mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). These microvesicles have been characterised as exosomes in view of the presence of some protein markers of exosomes, such as Tsg101, CD9 and Alix. Thus, the important finding has been obtained that bonafide exosomes, constitutively released by Glioblastoma cells and Astrocytes, can carry mtDNA, which can be, therefore, transferred between cells. This datum may help the understanding of some diseases due to mitochondrial alterations.

Study summary Full title Proteomic analysis identifies highly antigenic proteins in exosomes from M. tuberculosis-infected and culture filtrate protein-treated macrophages All authors Giri PK, Kruh NA, Dobos KM, Schorey JS Journal Proteomics Abstract Exosomes are small 30-100 nm membrane vesicles released from hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cell (show more...)Exosomes are small 30-100 nm membrane vesicles released from hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells and function to promote intercellular communication. They are generated through fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane and release of interluminal vesicles. Previous studies from our laboratory demonstrated that macrophages infected with Mycobacterium release exosomes that promote activation of both innate and acquired immune responses; however, the components present in exosomes inducing these host responses were not defined. This study used LC-MS/MS to identify 41 mycobacterial proteins present in exosomes released from M. tuberculosis-infected J774 cells. Many of these proteins have been characterized as highly immunogenic. Further, since most of the mycobacterial proteins identified are actively secreted, we hypothesized that macrophages treated with M. tuberculosis culture filtrate proteins (CFPs) would release exosomes containing mycobacterial proteins. We found 29 M. tuberculosis proteins in exosomes released from CFP-treated J774 cells, the majority of which were also present in exosomes isolated from M. tuberculosis-infected cells. The exosomes from CFP-treated J774 cells could promote macrophage and dendritic cell activation as well as activation of naïve T cells in vivo. These results suggest that exosomes containing M. tuberculosis antigens may be alternative approach to developing a tuberculosis vaccine.

Recently, nanovesicles (exosomes), released from macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs), have become increasingly appreciated as messengers in immunity. OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether exosomes from human macrophages, DCs, and plasma contain enzymes for LT biosynthesis and studied potential roles for exosomes in transcellular LT metabolism and granulocyte chemotaxis. METHODS: The presence of LT pathway enzymes and LT biosynthesis in exosomes and cells was analyzed by Western blot, immunoelectron microscopy, and enzyme activity assays. Surface marker expression was evaluated by flow cytometry, and granulocyte migration was assessed in a multiwell chemotaxis system. RESULTS: Exosomes from macrophages and DCs contain functional enzymes for LT biosynthesis. After incubation of intact cells with the LT biosynthesis intermediate LTA(4), LTB(4) was the major product of macrophages, whereas DCs primarily formed LTC(4). However, in exosomes from both cell types, LTC(4) was the predominant LTA(4) metabolite. Exosomal LTC(4) formation (per milligram protein) exceeded that of cells. In macrophages and DCs, TGF-?1 upregulated LTA(4) hydrolase along with increased LTB(4) formation also in the exosomes. Moreover, TGF-?1 modified the expression of surface marker proteins on cells and exosomes and reduced the exosome yield from macrophages. On Ca(2+)-ionophore and arachidonic acid stimulation, exosomes produced chemotactic eicosanoids and induced granulocyte migration. Interestingly, active LTA(4) hydrolase and LTC(4) synthase were present also in exosomes from human plasma. CONCLUSION: Our findings indicate that exosomes can contribute to inflammation by participation in LT biosynthesis and granulocyte recruitment.

Although initially alpha-synuclein w (show more...)alpha-Synuclein is central in Parkinson's disease pathogenesis. Although initially alpha-synuclein was considered a purely intracellular protein, recent data suggest that it can be detected in the plasma and CSF of humans and in the culture media of neuronal cells. To address a role of secreted alpha-synuclein in neuronal homeostasis, we have generated wild-type alpha-synuclein and beta-galactosidase inducible SH-SY5Y cells. Soluble oligomeric and monomeric species of alpha-synuclein are readily detected in the conditioned media (CM) of these cells at concentrations similar to those observed in human CSF. We have found that, in this model, alpha-synuclein is secreted by externalized vesicles in a calcium-dependent manner. Electron microscopy and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry proteomic analysis demonstrate that these vesicles have the characteristic hallmarks of exosomes, secreted intraluminar vesicles of multivesicular bodies. Application of CM containing secreted alpha-synuclein causes cell death of recipient neuronal cells, which can be reversed after alpha-synuclein immunodepletion from the CM. High- and low-molecular-weight alpha-synuclein species, isolated from this CM, significantly decrease cell viability. Importantly, treatment of the CM with oligomer-interfering compounds before application rescues the recipient neuronal cells from the observed toxicity. Our results show for the first time that cell-produced alpha-synuclein is secreted via an exosomal, calcium-dependent mechanism and suggest that alpha-synuclein secretion serves to amplify and propagate Parkinson's disease-related pathology.

They accumulate in tumor-bearing mice and humans and have been shown to contribute to cancer development. Here, we have isolated tumor-derived exosomes (TDEs) from mouse cell lines and shown that an interaction between TDE-associated Hsp72 and MDSCs determines the suppressive activity of the MDSCs via activation of Stat3. In addition, tumor-derived soluble factors triggered MDSC expansion via activation of Erk. TDE-associated Hsp72 triggered Stat3 activation in MDSCs in a TLR2/MyD88-dependent manner through autocrine production of IL-6. Importantly, decreasing exosome production using dimethyl amiloride enhanced the in vivo antitumor efficacy of the chemotherapeutic drug cyclophosphamide in 3 different mouse tumor models. We also demonstrated that this mechanism is relevant in cancer patients, as TDEs from a human tumor cell line activated human MDSCs and triggered their suppressive function in an Hsp72/TLR2-dependent manner. Further, MDSCs from cancer patients treated with amiloride, a drug used to treat high blood pressure that also inhibits exosome formation, exhibited reduced suppressor functions. Collectively, our findings show in both mice and humans that Hsp72 expressed at the surface of TDEs restrains tumor immune surveillance by promoting MDSC suppressive functions.

Study summary Full title Membrane vesicles released by intestinal epithelial cells infected with rotavirus inhibit T-cell function All authors Barreto A, Rodríguez LS, Rojas OL, Wolf M, Greenberg HB, Franco MA, Angel J Journal Viral Immunol Abstract Rotavirus (RV) predominantly replicates in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC), and danger signals rel (show more...)Rotavirus (RV) predominantly replicates in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC), and danger signals released by these cells may modulate viral immunity. We have recently shown that human model IEC (Caco-2 cells) infected with rhesus-RV release a non-inflammatory group of immunomodulators that includes heat shock proteins (HSPs) and TGF-?1. Here we show that both proteins are released in part in association with membrane vesicles (MV) obtained from filtrated Caco-2 supernatants concentrated by ultracentrifugation. These MV express markers of exosomes (CD63 and others), but not of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or nuclei. Larger quantities of proteins associated with MV were released by RV-infected cells than by non-infected cells. VP6 co-immunoprecipitated with CD63 present in these MV, and VP6 co-localized with CD63 in RV-infected cells, suggesting that this viral protein is associated with the MV, and that this association occurs intracellularly. CD63 present in MV preparations from stool samples from 36 children with gastroenteritis due or not due to RV were analyzed. VP6 co-immunoprecipitated with CD63 in 3/8 stool samples from RV-infected children, suggesting that these MV are released by RV-infected cells in vivo. Moreover, fractions that contained MV from RV-infected cells induced death and inhibited proliferation of CD4(+) T cells to a greater extent than fractions from non-infected cells. These effects were in part due to TGF-?, because they were reversed by treatment of the T cells with the TGF-?-receptor inhibitor ALK5i. MV from RV-infected and non-infected cells were heterogeneous, with morphologies and typical flotation densities described for exosomes (between 1.10 and 1.18 g/mL), and denser vesicles (>1.24 g/mL). Both types of MV from RV-infected cells were more efficient at inhibiting T-cell function than were those from non-infected cells. We propose that RV infection of IEC releases MV that modulate viral immunity.

Study summary Full title Rab27a and Rab27b control different steps of the exosome secretion pathway All authors Ostrowski M, Carmo NB, Krumeich S, Fanget I, Raposo G, Savina A, Moita CF, Schauer K, Hume AN, Freitas RP, Goud B, Benaroch P, Hacohen N, Fukuda M, Desnos C, Seabra MC, Darchen F, Amigorena S, Moita LF, Thery C Journal Nat Cell Biol Abstract Exosomes are secreted membrane vesicles that share structural and biochemical characteristics with i (show more...)Exosomes are secreted membrane vesicles that share structural and biochemical characteristics with intraluminal vesicles of multivesicular endosomes (MVEs). Exosomes could be involved in intercellular communication and in the pathogenesis of infectious and degenerative diseases. The molecular mechanisms of exosome biogenesis and secretion are, however, poorly understood. Using an RNA interference (RNAi) screen, we identified five Rab GTPases that promote exosome secretion in HeLa cells. Among these, Rab27a and Rab27b were found to function in MVE docking at the plasma membrane. The size of MVEs was strongly increased by Rab27a silencing, whereas MVEs were redistributed towards the perinuclear region upon Rab27b silencing. Thus, the two Rab27 isoforms have different roles in the exosomal pathway. In addition, silencing two known Rab27 effectors, Slp4 (also known as SYTL4, synaptotagmin-like 4) and Slac2b (also known as EXPH5, exophilin 5), inhibited exosome secretion and phenocopied silencing of Rab27a and Rab27b, respectively. Our results therefore strengthen the link between MVEs and exosomes, and introduce ways of manipulating exosome secretion in vivo.

These microvesicles carry proteins, lipids and nucleic acids derived from the host cell. Their isolation and analysis from blood samples have the potential to provide information about state and progression of malignancy and should prove of great clinical importance as biomarkers for a variety of disease states. However, current protocols for isolation of microvesicles from blood require high-speed centrifugation and filtration, which are cumbersome and time consuming. In order to take full advantage of the potential of microvesicles as biomarkers for clinical applications, faster and simpler methods of isolation will be needed. In this paper, we present an easy and rapid microfluidic immunoaffinity method to isolate microvesicles from small volumes of both serum from blood samples and conditioned medium from cells in culture. RNA of high quality can be extracted from these microvesicles providing a source of information about the genetic status of tumors to serve as biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of cancer.

To comprehensively explore the low-abundance proteome, combinatorial peptide ligand libraries, combined with peptide OFFGEL electrophoresis were employed for the enrichment and separation of relatively low-abundant proteins in urinary exosomes. After analysis by nanoHPLC-chip-MS/MS, 512 proteins were identified, including a large number of proteins with extreme molecular weight or extreme pI value, which could not be well mapped by using traditional 2-D-gel-based separation methods. This in-depth analysis of low-abundant proteins in urinary exosomes led to an increased understanding of molecular composition of these little vesicles and may be helpful for the discovery of novel biomarker. Our work also provides an effective strategy of concentration and identification of low-abundance proteome from complex bio-samples.

Ex vivo analysis of exosomes may provide biomarker discovery platforms and form non-invasive tools for disease diagnosis and monitoring. These vesicles have never before been studied in the context of bladder cancer, a major malignancy of the urological tract. We present the first proteomics analysis of bladder cancer cell exosomes. Using ultracentrifugation on a sucrose cushion, exosomes were highly purified from cultured HT1376 bladder cancer cells and verified as low in contaminants by Western blotting and flow cytometry of exosome-coated beads. Solubilization in a buffer containing SDS and DTT was essential for achieving proteomics analysis using an LC-MALDI-TOF/TOF MS approach. We report 353 high quality identifications with 72 proteins not previously identified by other human exosome proteomics studies. Overrepresentation analysis to compare this data set with previous exosome proteomics studies (using the ExoCarta database) revealed that the proteome was consistent with that of various exosomes with particular overlap with exosomes of carcinoma origin. Interrogating the Gene Ontology database highlighted a strong association of this proteome with carcinoma of bladder and other sites. The data also highlighted how homology among human leukocyte antigen haplotypes may confound MASCOT designation of major histocompatability complex Class I nomenclature, requiring data from PCR-based human leukocyte antigen haplotyping to clarify anomalous identifications. Validation of 18 MS protein identifications (including basigin, galectin-3, trophoblast glycoprotein (5T4), and others) was performed by a combination of Western blotting, flotation on linear sucrose gradients, and flow cytometry, confirming their exosomal expression. Some were confirmed positive on urinary exosomes from a bladder cancer patient. In summary, the exosome proteomics data set presented is of unrivaled quality. The data will aid in the development of urine exosome-based clinical tools for monitoring disease and will inform follow-up studies into varied aspects of exosome manufacture and function.

Exosomes are involved in a numb (show more...)Cells release exosomes to transfer various molecules to other cells. Exosomes are involved in a number of physiological and pathological processes. They are emerging great potential utility for diseases diagnosis and treatment recently. However, the internalization and intracellular trafficking of exosomes have not been described clearly. In this work, exosomes were isolated from the culture medium of PC12 cells, labeled by lipophilic dye and amino-reactive fluorophore, incubated with resting PC12 cells. The results of live-cell microscopy indicated that exosomes were internalized through endocytosis pathway, trapped in vesicles, and transported to perinuclear region. Particle tracking fluorescent vesicles suggested that the active transport of exosomes may be mediated by cytoskeleton. The proteins on exosome membrane were found to be released from exosomes and trapped in lysosome. The inverted transport of lipophilic dye from perinuclear region to cell peripheries was revealed, possibly caused by recycling of the exosome lipids. This study provides new sight into the mechanisms of exosome uptake and intracellular fate.

Here, we report that exosomes can deliver anti-inflammatory agents, such as curcumin, to activated myeloid cells in vivo. This technology provides a means for anti-inflammatory drugs, such as curcumin, to target the inflammatory cells as well as to overcome unwanted off-target effects that limit their utility. Using exosomes as a delivery vehicle, we provide evidence that curcumin delivered by exosomes is more stable and more highly concentrated in the blood. We show that the target specificity is determined by exosomes, and the improvement of curcumin activity is achieved by directing curcumin to inflammatory cells associated with therapeutic, but not toxic, effects. Furthermore, we validate the therapeutic relevance of this technique in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic shock mouse model. We further show that exosomes, but not lipid alone, are required for the enhanced anti-inflammatory activity of curcumin. The specificity of using exosomes as a drug carrier creates opportunities for treatments of many inflammation-related diseases without significant side effects due to innocent bystander or off-target effects.

Specifically, human saliva exosomes secreted by normal cells into saliva via exocytosis are novel biomarkers showing tumor-antigen enrichment during oral cancer. Here we show the substructure of single human saliva exosomes, using a new ultrasensitive low force atomic force microscopy (AFM) exhibiting substructural organization unresolvable in electron microscopy. We correlate the data with field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and AFM images to interpret the nanoscale structures of exosomes under varying forces. Single exosomes reveal reversible mechanical deformation displaying distinct elastic, 70-100 nm trilobed membrane with substructures carrying specific transmembrane receptors. Further, we imaged and investigated, using force spectroscopy with antiCD63 IgG functionalized AFM tips, highly specific and sensitive detection of antigenCD63, potentially useful cancer markers on individual exosomes. The quantitative nanoscale morphological, biomechanical, and surface biomolecular properties of single saliva exosomes are critical for the applications of exosomes for cancer diagnosis and as a model for developing new cell delivery systems.

This prostasome-forming and secretory ability of the epithelial cells is also preserved in poorly differentiated prostate cancer cells. The aim of the present investigation was to conduct a proteomic analysis of metastasis-derived prostasomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We investigated prostasomes from vertebral metastases of prostate cancer by 2-dimensional electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) protein characterization. RESULTS: Twenty-five unique protein spots were identified by MALDI-TOF and another five proteins were determined by mass spectrometry (MS)/MS. Annexins A1, A3 and A5, as well as dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 were among the identified proteins. The annexins and dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 found in cancer-derived prostasomes can act, among others, as angiogenic factors and can increase the vascular development in the neighbourhood of the tumour. CONCLUSION: Cancer-derived prostasomes may play an important role in the interaction between tumour cells and their environment.

We also found that approximately 1700 and 1000 ng of total RNA, in which small RNAs were major components, was contained inside the microvesicles isolated from 6 ml of colostrum and mature milk, respectively, despite high RNase activity in the milk. Polyadenylated gene transcripts for major milk proteins and translation elongation factor-1alpha (EF-1alpha) were present in the microvesicles, and integrity of some transcripts was confirmed by real-time PCR targeting 5'- and 3'-ends of mRNA and by in vitro translation analysis. Moreover, a considerable amount of mammary gland and immune-related microRNAs were present in the milk-derived microvesicles. Acidification of milk to mimic gastrointestinal tract did not mostly affected RNA yield and quality. The milk related gene transcripts were detected in cultured cells when incubated with milk-derived microvesicles, suggesting cellular uptake of the microvesicle contents including RNA. Our findings suggest that bovine breast milk contains RNAs capable for being transferred to living cells and involved in the development of calf's gastrointestinal and immune systems.

Renal sodium transporters are present in urinary exosomes. We hypothesized that sodium transporters would be excreted into the urine in different amounts in response to sodium intake in salt-sensitive versus salt-resistant patients. METHODS: Urinary exosomes were isolated by ultracentrifugation, and their content of Na-K-2Cl cotransporter (NKCC2) and Na-Cl cotransporter (NCC) was analyzed by immunoblotting. Animal studies: NKCC2 and NCC excretion was measured in 2 rat models to test whether changes in sodium transporter excretion are indicative of regulated changes in the kidney tissue. Human studies: in hypertensive patients (n = 41), we investigated: (1) a possible correlation between sodium reabsorption and urinary exosomal excretion of sodium transporters, and (2) the profile of sodium transporter excretion related to blood pressure (BP) changes with salt intake. A 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring and a 24-hour urine collection were performed after 1 week on a low- and 1 week on a high-salt diet. RESULTS: Animal studies: urinary NKCC2 and NCC excretion rates correlated well with their abundance in the kidney. Human studies: 6 patients (15%) were classified as salt sensitive. The NKCC2 and NCC abundance did not decrease after the high-salt period, when the urinary sodium reabsorption decreased from 99.7 to 99.0%. In addition, the changes in BP with salt intake were not associated with a specific profile of exosomal excretion. CONCLUSIONS: Our results do not support the idea that excretion levels of NKCC2 and NCC via urinary exosomes are markers of tubular sodium reabsorption in hypertensive patients.

Study summary Full title Exosomes communicate protective messages during oxidative stress; possible role of exosomal shuttle RNA All authors Eldh M, Ekström K, Valadi H, Sjöstrand M, Olsson B, Jernås M, Lötvall J Journal PLoS One Abstract BACKGROUND: Exosomes are small extracellular nanovesicles of endocytic origin that mediate different (show more...)BACKGROUND: Exosomes are small extracellular nanovesicles of endocytic origin that mediate different signals between cells, by surface interactions and by shuttling functional RNA from one cell to another. Exosomes are released by many cells including mast cells, dendritic cells, macrophages, epithelial cells and tumour cells. Exosomes differ compared to their donor cells, not only in size, but also in their RNA, protein and lipid composition. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: In this study, we show that exosomes, released by mouse mast cells exposed to oxidative stress, differ in their mRNA content. Also, we show that these exosomes can influence the response of other cells to oxidative stress by providing recipient cells with a resistance against oxidative stress, observed as an attenuated loss of cell viability. Furthermore, Affymetrix microarray analysis revealed that the exosomal mRNA content not only differs between exosomes and donor cells, but also between exosomes derived from cells grown under different conditions; oxidative stress and normal conditions. Finally, we also show that exposure to UV-light affects the biological functions associated with exosomes released under oxidative stress. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: These results argue that the exosomal shuttle of RNA is involved in cell-to-cell communication, by influencing the response of recipient cells to an external stress stimulus.

These microvesicles carry proteins, lipids and nucleic acids derived from the host cell. Their isolation and analysis from blood samples have the potential to provide information about state and progression of malignancy and should prove of great clinical importance as biomarkers for a variety of disease states. However, current protocols for isolation of microvesicles from blood require high-speed centrifugation and filtration, which are cumbersome and time consuming. In order to take full advantage of the potential of microvesicles as biomarkers for clinical applications, faster and simpler methods of isolation will be needed. In this paper, we present an easy and rapid microfluidic immunoaffinity method to isolate microvesicles from small volumes of both serum from blood samples and conditioned medium from cells in culture. RNA of high quality can be extracted from these microvesicles providing a source of information about the genetic status of tumors to serve as biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of cancer.

Study summary Full title Toll-like receptor 2-mediated peptidoglycan uptake by immature intestinal epithelial cells from apical side and exosome-associated transcellular transcytosis All authors Bu HF, Wang X, Tang Y, Koti V, Tan XD Journal J Cell Physiol Abstract Peptidoglycan (PGN) is a potent immune adjuvant derived from bacterial cell walls. Previous investig (show more...)Peptidoglycan (PGN) is a potent immune adjuvant derived from bacterial cell walls. Previous investigations suggest that intestinal epithelium may absorb PGN from the lumen. Nonetheless, how PGN is taken up and crosses intestinal epithelium remains largely unclear. Here, we first characterized PGN transport in vitro using IEC-18 and HT29-CL19A cells, which represent less mature epithelial cells in intestinal crypts. With fluorescent microscopy, we visualized internalization of dual-labeled PGN by enterocytes. Engulfed PGN was found to form a complex with PGN recognition protein-3, which may facilitate delivering PGN in vivo. Utilizing electronic microscopy, we revealed that uptake of apical PGN across intestinal epithelial monolayers was involved in phagocytosis, multivesicular body formation, and exosome secretion. We also studied transport of PGN using the transwell system. Our data indicated that apically loaded PGN was exocytosed to the basolateral compartment with exosomes by HT29-CL19A cells. The PGN-contained basolateral exosome extracts induced macrophage activation. Through gavaging mice with labeled PGN, we found that luminal PGN was taken up by columnar epithelial cells in crypts of the small intestine. Furthermore, we showed that pre-confluent immature but not post-confluent mature C2BBe1 cells engulfed PGN via a toll-like receptor 2-dependent manner. Together, our findings suggest that (1) crypt-based immature intestinal epithelial cells play an important role in transport of luminal PGN over the intestinal epithelium; and (2) luminal PGN is transcytosed across intestinal epithelia via a toll-like receptor 2-mediated phagocytosis-multivesicular body-exosome pathway. The absorbed PGN and its derivatives may facilitate maintenance of intestinal immune homeostasis.

Previously, we have correlated entry of murine lung-derived microvesicles into murine bone marrow cells with expression of pulmonary epithelial cell-specific messenger RNA (mRNA) in these marrow cells. The present studies establish that entry of lung-derived microvesicles into marrow cells is a prerequisite for marrow expression of pulmonary epithelial cell-derived mRNA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Murine bone marrow cells cocultured with rat lung, but separated from them using a cell-impermeable membrane (0.4-microm pore size), were analyzed using species-specific primers (for rat or mouse). RESULTS: These studies revealed that surfactant B and C mRNA produced by murine marrow cells were of both rat and mouse origin. Similar results were obtained using murine lung cocultured with rat bone marrow cells or when bone marrow cells were analyzed for the presence of species-specific albumin mRNA after coculture with rat or murine liver. These studies show that microvesicles both deliver mRNA to marrow cells and mediate marrow cell transcription of tissue-specific mRNA. The latter likely underlies the longer-term stable change in genetic phenotype that has been observed. We have also observed microRNA in lung-derived microvesicles, and studies with RNase-treated microvesicles indicate that microRNA negatively modulates pulmonary epithelial cell-specific mRNA levels in cocultured marrow cells. In addition, we have also observed tissue-specific expression of brain, heart, and liver mRNA in cocultured marrow cells, suggesting that microvesicle-mediated cellular phenotype change is a universal phenomena. CONCLUSION: These studies suggest that cellular systems are more phenotypically labile than previously considered.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanometer-sized spherical, lipid-bilayered structures and are recently in the public eye as an intercellular communicator in immune responses. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the role of EVs secreted by LPS inhalation in the development of airway immune dysfunction in response to allergens. METHODS: Extracellular vesicles in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids of BALB/c mice were isolated and characterized 24 h after applications to the airway of 10 ?g of LPS for 3 days. To evaluate the role of LPS-induced EVs on the development of airway immune dysfunction, in vivo and in vitro experiments were performed using the isolated LPS-induced EVs. RESULTS: The inhalation of LPS enhanced EVs release into the BAL fluid, when compared to the application of PBS. Airway sensitization with allergens and LPS-induced EVs resulted in a mixed Th1 and Th17 cell responses, although that with allergens and PBS-induced EVs induced immune tolerance. In addition, LPS-induced EVs enhanced the production of Th1- and Th17-polarizing cytokines (IL-12p70 and IL-6, respectively) by lung dendritic cells. Moreover, the immune responses induced by the LPS-induced EVs were blocked by denaturation of the EV-bearing proteins. CONCLUSION: These data suggest that EVs (especially, the protein components) secreted by LPS inhalation are a key intercellular communicator in the development of airway immune dysfunction to inhaled LPS-containing allergens.

We investigated, whether exosomes derived from IL-12-anchored human renal cancer cells could enhance their immunogenicity and increase induction of specific antitumor response. A mammalian co-expression plasmid of glycolipid-anchored-IL-12 (GPI-IL-12) was constructed by subcloning IL-12A chain gene (P35 subunit) and a fusion gene containing GPI-anchor signal sequence of human placental alkaline phosphatase-1 (hPLAP-1) and IL-12B chain gene (P40 subunit) in pBudCE4.1. Then exosomes were prepared from renal cancer cells modified to express GPI-IL-12. The results showed that exosomes derived from IL-12-anchored renal cancer cells expressed renal cell carcinoma-associated antigen G250 and GPI-IL-12. The incorporation of GPI-IL-12 onto exosomes (exosomes-GPI-IL-12, EXO/IL-12) significantly promotes proliferation of T cells, and subsequently increased the release of IFN-gamma. Notably, stimulation with EXOs/IL-12 could efficiently induce antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), resulting in more significant cytotoxic effects in vitro. These results suggested that exosomes derived from IL-12-anchored renal cancer cells bore GPI-IL-12 and G250, which have tumor rejection antigen with enhanced immunogenicity and antitumor effects, representing a novel strategy of exosomes-based vaccine for renal cell carcinoma.

In order to improve the efficacy of TEXs, we investigated whether exosomes derived from glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-anchored interleukin 2 (GPI-IL-2) gene-modified bladder cancer cells can increase the antitumor effects. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN: We transfected melanoma antigen-1 (MAGE-1)-expressing T24 tumor cells with a plasmid encoding GPI-IL-2 and prepared the TEXs. Exosomes expressing GPI-IL-2 were characterized by electron microscope and Western blot analysis. RESULTS: IL-2 was present on the cell surface in the GPI-anchored form as demonstrated by fluorescent microscope and ELISA analyses. Exosomes expressing GPI-IL-2 naturally contained bioactive GPI-IL-2 and tumor-associated antigen MAGE-1. Moreover, exosomes expressing GPI-IL-2-pulsed dendritic cells could induce the proliferation of T cells and the antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte immune response more efficiently. CONCLUSIONS: GPI-IL-2 gene-modified tumor cells can make the TEXs contain GPI-IL-2, resulting in increased antitumor effects. Our study provided a feasible approach for exosome-based tumor immunotherapy.

Recent reports have demonstrated that exosomes derived from interleukin-10 (IL-10)-treated bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs) can reduce the incidence and severity of established collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in mice. Based on the essential role of IL-10 in the development of normal mucosal immunity, we investigated whether exosomes derived from DCs treated with IL-10 (known as IL-10-exosomes) can suppress the trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We used the rat TNBS-induced colitis model to address the therapeutic potential of IL-10-exosomes in vivo. More specifically, a rectal enema of TNBS was administered to Wistar rats, and IL-10-exosomes were injected intraperitoneally on Day 3. RESULTS: In the context of a high level of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) and a low level of co-stimulatory molecule and membrane-bound IL-10 expression, IL-10-exosomes treatment substantially reduced all analyzed clinical, macroscopic, and histopathologic parameters of TNBS-induced colitis. The therapeutic effects of IL-10-exosomes were associated with a down-regulation mRNA expression of IL-2, IFN-? and TNF-? in colon tissues. Importantly, treatment with IL-10-exosomes resulted in a pronounced up-regulation of IL-10mRNA expression in colon tissues and regulatory T cells (Tregs) in Colonic lamina propria. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that IL-10-exosomes treatment can suppress acute TNBS-induced colitis and may offer a promising new therapeutic strategy for IBD.

They contained coimmunoprecipitating exosome-associated proteins, e.g., CD81, CD9, and Alix. These particles were purified as a homogeneous population of particles with a hydrodynamic radius of 55-65 nm by size-exclusion fractionation on a HPLC. Together these observations indicated that these particles are exosomes. These purified exosomes reduced infarct size in a mouse model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Therefore, MSC mediated its cardioprotective paracrine effect by secreting exosomes. This novel role of exosomes highlights a new perspective into intercellular mediation of tissue injury and repair, and engenders novel approaches to the development of biologics for tissue repair.

Study summary Full title DC-HIL/glycoprotein Nmb promotes growth of melanoma in mice by inhibiting the activation of tumor-reactive T cells All authors Tomihari M, Chung JS, Akiyoshi H, Cruz PD Jr, Ariizumi K Journal Cancer Res Abstract DC-HIL/glycoprotein nmb (Gpnmb) expressed on antigen-presenting cells attenuates T-cell activation b (show more...)DC-HIL/glycoprotein nmb (Gpnmb) expressed on antigen-presenting cells attenuates T-cell activation by binding to syndecan-4 (SD-4) on activated T cells. Because DC-HIL/Gpnmb is expressed abundantly by mouse and human melanoma lines, we posited that melanoma-associated DC-HIL/Gpnmb exerts similar inhibitory function on melanoma-reactive T cells. We generated small interfering RNA-transfected B16F10 melanoma cells to completely knock down DC-HIL/Gpnmb expression, with no alteration in cell morphology, melanin synthesis, or MHC class I expression. This knockdown had no effect on B16F10 proliferation in vitro or entry into the cell cycle following growth stimulation, but it markedly reduced the growth of these cells in vivo following their s.c. injection into syngeneic immunocompetent (but not immunodeficient) mice. This reduction in tumor growth was due most likely to an augmented capacity of DC-HIL-knocked down B16F10 cells (compared with controls) to activate melanoma-reactive T cells as documented in vitro and in mice. Whereas DC-HIL knockdown had no effect on susceptibility of melanoma to killing by cytotoxic T cells, blocking SD-4 function enhanced the reactivity of CD8(+) T cells to melanoma-associated antigens on parental B16F10 cells. Using an assay examining the spread to the lung following i.v. injection, DC-HIL-knocked down cells produced lung foci at similar numbers compared with that produced by control cells, but the size of the former foci was significantly smaller than the latter. We conclude that DC-HIL/Gpnmb confers upon melanoma the ability to downregulate the activation of melanoma-reactive T cells, thereby allowing melanoma to evade immunologic recognition and destruction. As such, the DC-HIL/SD-4 pathway is a potentially useful target for antimelanoma immunotherapy.

Study summary Full title Tumor necrosis factor gene-engineered J558 tumor cell-released exosomes stimulate tumor antigen P1A-specific CD8+ CTL responses and antitumor immunity All authors Xie Y, Bai O, Zhang H, Li W, Xiang J Journal Cancer Biother Radiopharm Abstract Exosomes (EXOs) derived from tumor cells have been used to stimulate antitumor immune responses. It (show more...)Exosomes (EXOs) derived from tumor cells have been used to stimulate antitumor immune responses. It has been demonstrated that EXO released by tumor cells engineered to express cytokines are of enhanced stimulatory effect on CD8(+) cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses and antitumor immunity. J558 is a mouse myeloma cell line expressing tumor antigen P1A. In this study, we purified EXO(TNF-a), EXO(IL-2), and EXO(IFN-gamma) released by three cytokine-gene (TNF-alpha, IL-2 and IFN-gamma)-engineered J558 (J558(TNF-a), J558(IL-2) and J558(IFN-gamma)) tumor cell lines from their culture supernatants, respectively, by differential ultracentrifugation. These EXOs showed a saucer or round shape with a diameter between 50 and 90 nm by electron microscopy and contained EXO-associated proteins, such as LAMP-1 and AIP1, but not lysate-associated protein galectin, by Western blot analysis. EXO displayed expression of molecules (H-2K(d), CD54, and P1A) similarly to, but to a lesser extent to, J558 tumor cells. We then compared the stimulatory effect of these EXOs on P1A-specific CD8(+) CTL responses and antitumor immunity 6 days subsequent to intravenous (i.v.) EXO immunization (30 microg/each BALB/c mouse). We demonstrated that EXO(TNF-alpha) immunization was able to induce more efficient P1A-specific CD8(+) T-cell response accounting for 0.62% of the total CD8(+) T-cell population, using PE-H-2K(d)/P1A peptide and FITC-CD8 staining by flow cytometric analysis then EXO(IL-2) (0.31%) and EXO(IFN-gamma) (0.22%) immunization (P < 0.05), respectively, at day 6 after immunization. EXO(IL-2) and EXO(IFN-gamma) vaccine (i.v. 30 microg/each mouse) only protected 3 of 8 (38%) and 2 of 8 (25%) mice from tumor growth after subcutaneous (s.c.) challenging of immunized mice with J558 tumor cells (0.5 x 10(6) cells/each mouse), whereas EXO(TNF-alpha) immunization protected all 8 of 8 (100%) mice from tumor growth (P < 0.05). Taken together, we demonstrate that EXO(TNF-a) released by engineered J558(TNF-a) tumor cells more efficiently stimulate tumor antigen P1A-specific CD8(+) CTL responses and antitumor immunity than EXO(IL-2) and EXO(IFN-gamma) released by engineered J558(IL-2) and J558(IFN-gamma) tumor cells. Therefore, TNF-alpha-expressing tumor cell-released EXO may represent a more effective EXO-based vaccine in the induction of antitumor immunity.

Study summary Full title Effect of 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine on immune-associated proteins in exosomes from hepatoma All authors Xiao WH, Sanren GW, Zhu JH, Li QW, Kang HR, Wang RL, Song LP, Ye M Journal World J Gastroenterol Abstract AIM: To study the effect of 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-CdR) on heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), hum (show more...)AIM: To study the effect of 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-CdR) on heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), human leucocyte antigen-I (HLA-I) and NY-ESO-1 proteins in exosomes produced by hepatoma cells, HepG2 and Hep3B. METHODS: Exosomes derived from HepG(2) and Hep3B cells treated with or without 5-aza-CdR were isolated and purified by ultrafiltration centrifugation and sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation. The number of exosomes was counted under electron microscope. Concentration of proteins in exosomes was measured by bicinchoninic acid protein assay. Expression of HSP70, HLA-I and NY-ESO-1 proteins in exosomes was detected by Western blotting and immunoelectron microscopy. mRNA expression of p53 gene was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: The mRNA expression of p53 gene was increased in both hepatoma cell lines after treatment with 5-aza-CdR. The number of exosomes and the concentration of total proteins in exosomes were increased significantly after treatment with 5-aza-CdR (P < 0.05). After treatment with 5-aza-CdR, immunoelectron microscopy and Western blotting showed that the HSP70, HLA-I and NY-ESO-1 proteins were increased in exosomes produced by both hepatoma cell lines. CONCLUSION: 5-Aza-CdR, an inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase, can increase exosomes produced by hepatoma cells and immune-associated protein component of exosomes, which may be mediated by p53 gene up-regulation and 5-aza-CdR demethylation.
