Li M. Atomic force microscopy as a nanomechanical tool for cancer liquid biopsy. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2024; 734:150637. [PMID: 39226737 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2024.150637] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2024] [Revised: 08/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/30/2024] [Indexed: 09/05/2024]
Abstract
Liquid biopsies have been receiving tremendous attention for their potential to reshape cancer management. Though current studies of cancer liquid biopsy primarily fucus on applying biochemical assays to characterize the genetic/molecular profiles of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and their secondary products shed from tumor sites in bodily fluids, delineating the nanomechanical properties of tumor-associated materials in liquid biopsy specimens yields complementary insights into the biology of tumor dissemination and evolution. Particularly, atomic force microscopy (AFM) has become a standard and versatile toolbox for characterizing the mechanical properties of living biological systems at the micro/nanoscale, and AFM has been increasingly utilized to probe the nanomechanical properties of various tumor-derived analytes in liquid biopsies, including CTCs, tumor-associated cells, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) molecules, and extracellular vesicles (EVs), offering additional possibilities for understanding cancer pathogenesis from the perspective of mechanobiology. Herein, the applications of AFM in cancer liquid biopsy are summarized, and the challenges and future directions of AFM as a nanomechanical analysis tool in cancer liquid biopsy towards clinical utility are discussed and envisioned.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been the subject of an exponentially growing number of studies covering their biogenesis mechanisms, isolation and analysis techniques, physiological and pathological roles, and clinical applications, such as biomarker and therapeutic uses. Nevertheless, the heterogeneity of EVs both challenges our understanding of them and presents new opportunities for their potential application. Recently, the EV field experienced a wide range of advances. However, the challenges also remain huge. This review focuses on the recent progress and difficulties encountered in the practical use of EVs in clinical settings. In addition, we also explored the concept of EV heterogeneity to acquire a more thorough understanding of EVs and their involvement in cancer, specifically focusing on the fundamental nature of EVs.

Abstract
Brain diseases, such as brain tumors, neurodegenerative diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, and brain injuries, are caused by various pathophysiological changes, which pose a serious health threat. Brain disorders are often difficult to treat due to the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Biomimetic nanovesicles (BNVs), including endogenous extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from various cells and artificial nanovesicles, possess the ability to penetrate the BBB and thus can be utilized for drug delivery to the brain. BNVs, especially endogenous EVs, are widely distributed in body fluids and usually carry various disease-related signal molecules such as proteins, RNA, and DNA, and may also be analyzed to understand the etiology and pathogenesis of brain diseases. This review covers the exhaustive classification and characterization of BNVs and pathophysiological roles involved in various brain diseases, and emphatically focuses on nanotechnology-integrated BNVs for brain disease theranostics, including various diagnosis strategies and precise therapeutic regulations (e.g., immunity regulation, disordered protein clearance, anti-neuroinflammation, neuroregeneration, angiogenesis, and the gut-brain axis regulation). The remaining challenges and future perspectives regarding the nanotechnology-integrated BNVs for the diagnosis and treatment of brain diseases are also discussed and outlined.

Astrocyte-Derived Extracellular Vesicular miR-143-3p Dampens Autophagic Degradation of Endothelial Adhesion Molecules and Promotes Neutrophil Transendothelial Migration after Acute Brain Injury. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2305339.

Abstract
Pivotal roles of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the pathogenesis of central nervous system (CNS) disorders including acute brain injury are increasingly acknowledged. Through the analysis of EVs packaged miRNAs in plasma samples from patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), it is discovered that the level of EVs packaged miR-143-3p (EVs-miR-143-3p) correlates closely with perihematomal edema and neurological outcomes. Further study reveals that, upon ICH, EVs-miR-143-3p is robustly secreted by astrocytes and can shuttle into brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs). Heightened levels of miR-143-3p in BMECs induce the up-regulated expression of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) that bind to circulating neutrophils and facilitate their transendothelial cell migration (TEM) into brain. Mechanism-wise, miR-143-3p directly targets ATP6V1A, resulting in impaired lysosomal hydrolysis ability and reduced autophagic degradation of CAMs. Importantly, a VCAM-1-targeting EVs system to selectively deliver miR-143-3p inhibitor to pathological BMECs is created, which shows satisfactory therapeutic effects in both ICH and traumatic brain injury (TBI) mouse models. In conclusion, the study highlights the causal role of EVs-miR-143-3p in BMECs' dysfunction in acute brain injury and demonstrates a proof of concept that engineered EVs can be devised as a potentially applicable nucleotide drug delivery system for the treatment of CNS disorders.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), through their complex cargo, can reflect the state of their cell of origin and change the functions and phenotypes of other cells. These features indicate strong biomarker and therapeutic potential and have generated broad interest, as evidenced by the steady year-on-year increase in the numbers of scientific publications about EVs. Important advances have been made in EV metrology and in understanding and applying EV biology. However, hurdles remain to realising the potential of EVs in domains ranging from basic biology to clinical applications due to challenges in EV nomenclature, separation from non-vesicular extracellular particles, characterisation and functional studies. To address the challenges and opportunities in this rapidly evolving field, the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) updates its 'Minimal Information for Studies of Extracellular Vesicles', which was first published in 2014 and then in 2018 as MISEV2014 and MISEV2018, respectively. The goal of the current document, MISEV2023, is to provide researchers with an updated snapshot of available approaches and their advantages and limitations for production, separation and characterisation of EVs from multiple sources, including cell culture, body fluids and solid tissues. In addition to presenting the latest state of the art in basic principles of EV research, this document also covers advanced techniques and approaches that are currently expanding the boundaries of the field. MISEV2023 also includes new sections on EV release and uptake and a brief discussion of in vivo approaches to study EVs. Compiling feedback from ISEV expert task forces and more than 1000 researchers, this document conveys the current state of EV research to facilitate robust scientific discoveries and move the field forward even more rapidly.

Nanovesicles (NVs) are widely used in the treatment and diagnosis of diseases due to their excellent vascular permeability, good biocompatibility, high loading capacity, and easy functionalization. However, their yield and in vivo penetration depth limitations and their complex preparation processes still constrain their application and development. Ultrasound, as a fundamental external stimulus with deep tissue penetration, concentrated energy sources, and good safety, has been proven to be a patient-friendly and highly efficient strategy to overcome the restrictions of traditional clinical medicine. Recent research has shown that ultrasound can drive the generation of NVs, increase their yield, simplify their preparation process, and provide direct therapeutic effects and intelligent control to enhance the therapeutic effect of NVs. In addition, NVs, as excellent drug carriers, can enhance the targeting efficiency of ultrasound-based sonodynamic therapy or sonogenetic regulation and improve the accuracy of ultrasound imaging. This review provides a detailed introduction to the classification, generation, and modification strategies of NVs, emphasizing the impact of ultrasound on the formation of NVs and summarizing the enhanced treatment and diagnostic effects of NVs combined with ultrasound for various diseases.

Abstract
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles, ranging in size from 30-150nm, which can be derived from various types of cells. In recent years, mammalian-derived exosomes have been extensively studied and found to play a crucial role in regulating intercellular communication, thereby influencing the development and progression of numerous diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine has employed plant-based remedies for thousands of years, and an increasing body of evidence suggests that plant-derived exosome-like nanovesicles (PELNs) share similarities with mammalian-derived exosomes in terms of their structure and function. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advances in the study of PELNs and their potential implications for human health. Specifically, we summarize the roles of PELNs in respiratory, digestive, circulatory, and other diseases. Furthermore, we have extensively investigated the potential shortcomings and challenges in current research regarding the mechanism of action, safety, administration routes, isolation and extraction methods, characterization and identification techniques, as well as drug-loading capabilities. Based on these considerations, we propose recommendations for future research directions. Overall, our review highlights the potential of PELNs as a promising area of research, with broad implications for the treatment of human diseases. We anticipate continued interest in this area and hope that our summary of recent findings will stimulate further exploration into the implications of PELNs for human health.

Abstract
Lipid-based nanomedicines (LBNMs), including liposomes, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and extracellular vesicles (EVs), are recognized as one of the most clinically acceptable nano-formulations. However, the bench-to-bedside translation efficiency is far from satisfactory, mainly due to the lack of in-depth understanding of their physical and biochemical attributes at the single-particle level. In this review, we first give a brief introduction of LBNMs, highlighting some milestones and related scientific and clinical achievements in the past several decades, as well as the grand challenges in the characterization of LBNMs. Next, we present an overview of each category of LBNMs as well as the core properties that largely dictate their biological characteristics and clinical performance, such as size distribution, particle concentration, morphology, drug encapsulation and surface properties. Then, the recent applications of several analytical techniques including electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, fluorescence microscopy, Raman microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis, tunable resistive pulse sensing and flow cytometry on the single-particle characterization of LBNMs are thoroughly discussed. Particularly, the comparative advantages of the newly developed nano-flow cytometry that enables quantitative analysis of both the physical and biochemical characteristics of LBNMs smaller than 40 nm with high throughput and statistical robustness are emphasized. The overall aim of this review article is to illustrate the importance, challenges and achievements associated with single-particle characterization of LBNMs.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix in microenvironments harbors a variety of signals to control cellular functions and the materiality of tissues. Most efforts to synthetically reconstitute the matrix by biomaterial design have focused on decoupling cell-secreted and polymer-based cues. Cells package molecules into nanoscale lipid membrane-bound extracellular vesicles and secrete them. Thus, extracellular vesicles inherently interact with the meshwork of the extracellular matrix. In this Review, we discuss various aspects of extracellular vesicle-matrix interactions. Cells receive feedback from the extracellular matrix and leverage intracellular processes to control the biogenesis of extracellular vesicles. Once secreted, various biomolecular and biophysical factors determine whether extracellular vesicles are locally incorporated into the matrix or transported out of the matrix to be taken up by other cells or deposited into tissues at a distal location. These insights can be utilized to develop engineered biomaterials where EV release and retention can be precisely controlled in host tissue to elicit various biological and therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
Folic acid (FA) is a ligand that has been renowned for its strong binding to FA receptor (FR), and the robustness of the specific interaction has led to the generation of multitudinous tumor-targeted nano-drug delivery systems. However, selecting the appropriate FA targeted nano-drugs according to types of cancerous cells to achieve a high effect is critical. Understanding of how the drug is transported through the cell membrane and is delivered intracellularly is very important in screening ideal targeted nano-drugs for cancerous changes in different organs. Herein, by using a force tracing technique based on atomic force microscopy (AFM), the dynamic process of FA-polyamidoamine-Doxorubicin (FA-PAMAM-DOX) entry into different tumor cells (HeLa and A549) and normal cells (Vero) was monitored in real time. The cell membrane transport efficacy of FA-PAMAM-DOX in tumor cells with an FR high overexpression level (HeLa) and FR low overexpression level (A549) is analyzed, which is significantly higher than that in normal cells (Vero), especially for HeLa cells. Subsequently, the intracellular delivery efficiency of FA-PAMAM-DOX in different cell lines was measured by using fluorescence imaging and AFM-based nanoindentation techniques. This report will help to discover the cellular transport mechanism of nano-drugs and screen out optimal therapeutic nano-drugs for different types of tumors.

Abstract
In preparation for leveraging extracellular vesicles (EVs) for disease diagnostics and therapeutics, fundamental research is being done to understand EV biological, chemical, and physical properties. Most published studies have investigated nanoscale EVs and focused on EV biochemical content. There is much less understanding of large microscale EV characteristics and EV mechanical properties. We recently introduced a non-contact microfluidic technique that measures the stiffness of large EVs (>1 μm diameter). This pilot study probes the robustness of the microfluidic technique to distinguish between EV populations by comparing stiffness distributions of large EVs derived from glioblastoma cell lines. EVs derived from cells expressing the IDH1 mutation, a common glioblastoma mutation known to disrupt lipid metabolism, were stiffer than those expressed from wild-type cells in a statistical comparison of sample medians. A supporting lipidomics analysis showed that the IDH1 mutation increased the amount of saturated lipids in EVs. Taken together, these data encourage further investigation into the potential of high-throughput microfluidics to distinguish between large EV populations that differ in biomolecular composition. These findings contribute to the understanding of EV biomechanics, in particular for the less studied microscale EVs.

Abstract
Cells release extracellular vesicles (EVs) as the carriers for intercellular communications to regulate life activities. Particularly, it is increasingly apparent that mechanical forces play an essential role in biological systems. The nanomechanical properties of EVs and their dynamics in cancer development are still not fully understood. Herein, with the use of atomic force microscopy (AFM), the nanomechanical signatures of EVs from the liquid biopsies of hematologic cancer patients were unraveled. Single native EVs were probed by AFM under aqueous conditions. The elastic and viscous properties of EVs were measured and visualized to correlate EV mechanics with EV geometry. Experimental results remarkably reveal the significant differences in EV mechanics among multiple myeloma patients, lymphoma patients, and healthy volunteers. The study unveils the unique nanomechanical signatures of EVs in hematologic cancers, which will benefit the studies of liquid biopsies for cancer diagnosis and prognosis with translational significance.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been regarded as one of the most potential diagnostic biomarkers for different cancers, due to their unique physiological and pathological functions. However, it is still challenging to precisely analyze the contents and sources of EVs, due to their heterogeneity. Herein, we summarize the advances in technologies for a single EV analysis, which may provide new strategies to study the heterogeneity of EVs, as well as their cargo, more specifically. Furthermore, the applications of a single EV analysis on cancer early diagnosis are also discussed.

Abstract
Combination chemotherapy is recognized as a vital medical treatment for cancer, but it has not achieved clinical ideal effects of combination therapy. Herein, we designed a supramolecular combination chemotherapy strategy based on cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]), which can be facilely assembled into dual platinum drugs. Interestingly, employing the CB[8] carrier led to a greater than 10-fold intracellular Pt content compared to that of dual drugs at 4 h, and the CB[8] complex (CLE) can enhance the infiltration of platinum drugs in colorectal tumor cells tremendously. The platinum drugs can be released from CLE through consuming more tumor biomarker spermidine. Through analyzing the nanomechanical property of the colorectal tumor cellular surface by bioscope AFM, it was revealed that CLE modified the property by decreasing the adhesion and increasing the stiffness. This study provided a facile and sensitive strategy for improving combination chemotherapy by supramolecular materials.

Abstract
Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) play a crucial role in local and distant cell communication. The intrinsic properties of sEVs make them compatible biomaterials for drug delivery, vaccines, and theranostic nanoparticles. Although sEV proteomics have been robustly studied, a direct instantaneous assessment of sEV structure dynamics remains difficult. Here, we use the high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) to evaluate nanotopological changes of sEVs with respect to different physicochemical stresses including thermal stress, pH, and osmotic stress. The sEV structure is severely altered at high-temperature, high-pH, or hypertonic conditions. Surprisingly, the spherical shape of the sEVs is maintained in acidic or hypotonic environments. Real-time observation by HS-AFM imaging reveals an irreversible structural change in the sEVs during transition of pH or osmolarity. HS-AFM imaging provides both qualitative and quantitative data at high spatiotemporal resolution (nanoscopic and millisecond levels). In summary, our study demonstrates the feasibility of HS-AFM for structural characterization and assessment of nanoparticles.

Abstract
Cancer-derived small extracellular vesicles (csEVs) play critical roles in the genesis and development of various cancers. However, accurate detection of low-abundance csEVs remains particularly challenging due to the complex clinical sample composition. In the present study, we constructed a Programmable Isothermal Cascade Keen Enzyme-free Reporter (PICKER) for the reliable detection and acquisition of the relative abundance of csEVs in total sEVs (tsEVs) by integrating dual-aptamer recognition (cancer-specific protein EpCAM and tetraspanin protein CD63) with a catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) amplification. By employing this strategy, we were able to achieve a detection limit of 420 particles/μL csEVs. Particularly, we proposed a novel particle ratio index of csEV against tsEV (PRcsEV/tsEV) to greatly eliminate errors from inconsistent centrifugation, which was calculated from the fluorescence ratio produced by csEVs and tsEVs. The PICKER showed a 1/10,000 discrimination capability by successfully picking out 1.0 × 103 csEV from 1.0 × 107 tsEV per microliter. We also found that the PRcsEV/tsEV value increased proportional to the stages of breast cancer by analyzing EVs from clinical patients' plasma. Taken together, we established a PICKER strategy capable of accurately discriminating csEVs, and the proposed PRcsEV/tsEV had been proven a potential indicator of breast cancer staging, paving the way toward facilitating cancer diagnosis and precision therapeutics.

Triple negative breast cancer-derived small extracellular vesicles as modulator of biomechanics in target cells. NANOMEDICINE : NANOTECHNOLOGY, BIOLOGY, AND MEDICINE 2022; 44:102582.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicle (EV) mediated communication has recently been proposed as one of the pivotal routes in the development of cancer metastasis. EVs are nano-sized vesicles swapped between cells, carrying a biologically active content that can promote tumor-induced immune suppression, metastasis and angiogenesis. Thus, EVs constitute a potential target in cancer therapy. However, their role in triggering the premetastatic niche and in tumor spreading is still unclear. Here, we focused on the EV ability to modulate the biomechanical properties of target cells, known to play a crucial role in metastatic spreading. To this purpose, we isolated and thoroughly characterized triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC)-derived small EVs. We then evaluated variations in the mechanical properties (cell stiffness, cytoskeleton/nuclear/morphology and Yap activity rearrangements) of non-metastatic breast cancer MCF7 cells upon EV treatment. Our results suggest that TNBC-derived small EVs are able to directly modify MCF7 cells by inducing a decrease in cell stiffness, rearrangements in cytoskeleton, focal adhesions and nuclear/cellular morphology, and an increase in Yap downstream gene expression. Testing the biomechanical response of cells after EV addition might represent a new functional assay in metastatic cancer framework that can be exploited for future application both in diagnosis and in therapy.

Abstract
The mechanical properties of biological nanoparticles play a crucial role in their interaction with the cellular membrane, in particular for cellular uptake. This has significant implications for the design of pharmaceutical carrier particles. In this context, liposomes have become increasingly popular, among other reasons due to their customizability and easily varied physicochemical properties. With currently available methods, it is, however, not trivial to characterize the mechanical properties of nanoscopic liposomes especially with respect to the level of deformation induced upon their ligand-receptor-mediated interaction with laterally fluid cellular membranes. Here, we utilize the sensitivity of dual-wavelength surface plasmon resonance to probe the size and shape of bound liposomes (∼100 nm in diameter) as a means to quantify receptor-induced deformation during their interaction with a supported cell membrane mimic. By comparing biotinylated liposomes in gel and fluid phases, we demonstrate that fluid-phase liposomes are more prone to deformation than their gel-phase counterparts upon binding to the cell membrane mimic and that, as expected, the degree of deformation depends on the number of ligand-receptor pairs that are engaged in the multivalent binding.

Abstract
The size of membrane-enveloped virus particles, exosomes, and lipid vesicles strongly impacts functional properties in biological and applied contexts. Multivalent ligand-receptor interactions involving nanoparticle shape deformation are critical to such functions, yet the corresponding effect of nanoparticle size remains largely elusive. Herein, using an indirect nanoplasmonic sensing approach, we investigated how the nanoscale size properties of ligand-modified lipid vesicles affect real-time binding interactions, especially vesicle deformation processes, with a receptor-modified, cell membrane-mimicking platform. Together with theoretical analyses, our findings reveal a pronounced, size-dependent transition in the membrane bending properties of nanoscale lipid vesicles between 60 and 180 nm in diameter. For smaller vesicles, a large membrane bending energy enhanced vesicle stiffness while the osmotic pressure energy was the dominant modulating factor for larger, less stiff vesicles. These findings advance our fundamental understanding of how nanoparticle size affects multivalency-induced nanoparticle shape deformation and can provide guidance for the design of biomimetic nanoparticles with tailored nanomechanical properties.

Abstract
Hypoxia is a remarkable trait of the tumor microenvironment (TME). When facing selective pressure, tumor cells show various adaptive characteristics, such as changes in the expression of cancer hallmarks (increased proliferation, suppressed apoptosis, immune evasion, and so on) and more frequent cell communication. Because of the adaptation of cancer cells to hypoxia, exploring the association between cell communication mediators and hypoxia has become increasingly important. Exosomes are important information carriers in cell-to-cell communication. Abundant evidence has proven that hypoxia effects in the TME are mediated by exosomes, with the occasional formation of feedback loops. In this review, we equally focus on the biogenesis and heterogeneity of cancer-derived exosomes and their functions under hypoxia and describe the known and potential mechanism ascribed to exosomes and hypoxia. Notably, we call attention to the size change of hypoxic cancer cell-derived exosomes, a characteristic long neglected, and propose some possible effects of this size change. Finally, jointly considering recent developments in the understanding of exosomes and tumors, we describe noteworthy problems in this field that urgently need to be solved for better research and clinical application.
