Introduction: Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), are lipid-bound particles released from cells, playing pivotal roles in cell signaling and intercellular communication. Despite increased research focus on EVs in recent decades, there is a lack of studies addressing the glycosylation of their proteins.
Aim: In our study, we aimed to develop a methodology to examine the proteomic, N-glycopeptide, and chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycan profiles of sEVs obtained from A549 lung adenocarcinoma and BEAS-2B non-tumorigenic cell lines.
Method: A549 cells underwent culturing in non-completed F12 medium, while BEAS-2B cells were cultured in BEGM medium for 72 hours. After centrifugation, small EVs were isolated from cell culture supernatant by mini-size exclusion chromatography on in-house prepared columns. Isolated sEVs were characterized by microfluidic resistive pulse sensing and transmission electron microscopy. For nanoUHPLC-MS(MS) analysis, sEVs were subjected to freeze-thaw cycles and digested with trypsin and chondroitinase ABC enzymes to produce peptides and chondroitin sulfate disaccharides, respectively. The peptides obtained were enriched for N-glycopeptides by acetone precipitation.
Results: Proteomic analysis confirmed the presence of about half of the 100 most common vesicular marker proteins, indicating high quality sEV samples. We identified approximately 100 N-glycopeptides per sample, including glycopeptides of vesicular marker proteins, and the most abundant chondroitin sulfate disaccharides.
Conclusion: The developed methodology allows the study of glycosylation of sEV proteins from cancerous and non-cancerous cell lines. Therefore, a study involving 6-6 parallel isolations is currently in preparation to identify biological differences between the two cell lines, which may help to understand the mechanisms underlying disease progression.
