Abstract

Because of a high degree of sequence similarity among homologous non-coding RNAs of mammalian species, residual FCS-RNA in culture medium may interfere in the analysis of EV-RNA released by cultured cells. Recently, doubts have been raised as to whether commonly used protocols for depletion of FCS-EV efficiently remove FCS-RNA. Moreover, technical details in FCS-EV depletion protocols are known to vary between labs, which may lead to inter-study differences in contaminating FCS-RNA levels. Here, we investigated how technical modifications of EV-depletion protocols affect the efficiency with which bovine RNAs are depleted from FCS, and determined the contribution of contaminating bovine RNA to EV-RNA purified from cell cultures. Our data show differences in depletion efficiency between and within various classes of small non-coding RNA. Importantly, we demonstrate that variations in FCS-EV depletion protocols affect both the quantity and type of residual FCS-RNAs in EV-depleted medium. By using optimised FCS-EV depletion protocols combined with methods for high-grade purification of EV the levels of contaminating bovine RNA in EV populations isolated from cell culture medium can be reduced. With illustrative datasets we also demonstrate that the abundance of a specific RNA in cell culture EV can only be determined if measured relative to background levels of this RNA in medium control samples. These data highlight the need for optimisation and validation of existing and novel FCS-EV depletion methods and urge for accurate descriptions of these methods in publications to increase experimental reproducibility.
