Singh PK, Sarchet P, Hord C, Casadei L, Pollock R, Prakash S. Mechanical property estimation of sarcoma-relevant extracellular vesicles using transmission electron microscopy. JOURNAL OF EXTRACELLULAR BIOLOGY 2024; 3:e158. [PMID: 38966868 PMCID: PMC11222873 DOI: 10.1002/jex2.158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
Analysis of single extracellular vesicles (EVs) has the potential to yield valuable label-free information on their morphological structure, biomarkers and therapeutic targets, though such analysis is hindered by the lack of reliable and quantitative measurements of the mechanical properties of these compliant nanoscale particles. The technical challenge in mechanical property measurements arises from the existing tools and methods that offer limited throughput, and the reported elastic moduli range over several orders of magnitude. Here, we report on a flow-based method complemented by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging to provide a high throughput, whole EV deformation analysis for estimating the mechanical properties of liposarcoma-derived EVs as a function of their size. Our study includes extracting morphological data of EVs from a large dataset of 432 TEM images, with images containing single to multiple EVs, and implementing the thin-shell deformation theory. We estimated the elastic modulus, E = 0.16 ± 0.02 MPa (mean±SE) for small EVs (sEVs; 30-150 nm) and E = 0.17 ± 0.03 MPa (mean±SE) for large EVs (lEVs; >150 nm). To our knowledge, this is the first report on the mechanical property estimation of LPS-derived EVs and has the potential to establish a relationship between EV size and EV mechanical properties.

Arch Biochem Biophys 2024; 755:109964. [PMID: 38527699 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2024.109964] [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: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
Amorphous silica has been approved as a food and pharmaceutical additive. However, its potential to enhance the carcinogenicity of epithelial cells is incontrovertible. With their expanded surface area per unit mass and distinctive cellular incorporation, nano-sized silica particles (nSPs) exhibit heightened cytotoxicity compared to micrometer-sized counterparts. The precise effect of nSPs on the generation of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) within endosomes after cellular uptake remains unclear. In the present study, we explored the secretion of sEVs from cells and their functional implications following exposure to nSPs. Our findings demonstrate that nSP50 exposure not only induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) but also promoted the maturation of multivesicular endosomes (MVEs) along with the secretion of sEVs in A549 cells. Inhibition of sEV secretion using GW4869 and apoptosis activator 2 exacerbated nSP50-induced EMT, indicating that sEV secretion may suppress EMT. Analysis of the function of sEV in a cell-free system revealed that co-incubation of sEVs with nSP50 led to the formation of micrometer-sized aggregates, which exhibited limited uptake efficiency within A549 cells. These results strongly suggest that the secretion of sEVs plays a protective role against the cytotoxicity attributed to nSP50 exposure.

Abstract
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in mammals. Type I collagen in its fibril form has a characteristic pattern structure that alternates two regions called gap and overlap. The structure and properties of collagens are highly dependent on the water and mineral content of the environment. Here, we apply 3D AFM to characterize at angstrom-scale resolution the interfacial water structure of collagen nanoribbons. For a neutral tip, the interfacial water structure is characterized by the oscillation of the water particle density distribution with a value of 0.3 nm (hydration layers). The interfacial structure does not depend on the collagen region. For a negatively charged tip, the interfacial structure might depend on the collagen region. Hydration layers are observed in overlap regions, while in gap regions, the interfacial solvent structure is dominated by electrostatic interactions. These interactions generate interlayer distances of 0.2 nm.

Abstract
Methods that enable specific and sensitive quantification of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) using flow cytometry are still under development. Aggregation or adsorption of antibodies causes sub-nano sized particles or non-specific binding and largely affects the results of flow cytometric analysis of single sEVs. Comparison of control IgG and target-specific IgG is inappropriate because they have different characters. Here, we evaluate four preparation methods for flow cytometry, including ultracentrifugation, density gradient centrifugation, size exclusion chromatography (SEC), and the TIM4-affinity method by using tetraspanin-deficient sEVs. The ultracentrifugation or density gradient centrifugation preparation method has large false-positive rates for tetraspanin staining. Conversely, preparation methods using SEC or the TIM4-affinity method show specific detection of single sEVs, which elucidate the roles of sEV biogenesis regulators in the generation of sEV subpopulations. The methods are also useful for the detection of rare disease-related markers, such as PD-L1. Flow cytometric analysis using SEC or the TIM4-affinity method could accelerate research into sEV biogenesis and the development of sEV-based diagnostics and therapies.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is one of the most prevalent digestive malignancies. The lack of effective in vitro peritoneal models has hindered the exploration of the potential mechanisms behind gastric cancer's peritoneal metastasis. An accumulating body of research indicates that small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) play an indispensable role in peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer cells. In this study, a biomimetic peritoneum was constructed. The biomimetic model is similar to real peritoneum in internal microstructure, composition, and primary function, and it enables the recurrence of peritoneal metastasis process in vitro. Based on this model, the association between the mechanical properties of sEVs and the invasiveness of gastric cancer was identified. By performing nanomechanical analysis on sEVs, we found that the Young's modulus of sEVs can be utilized to differentiate between malignant clinical samples (ascites) and nonmalignant clinical samples (peritoneal lavage). Furthermore, patients' ascites-derived sEVs were verified to stimulate the mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition, thereby promoting peritoneal metastasis. In summary, nanomechanical analysis of living sEVs could be utilized for the noninvasive diagnosis of malignant degree and peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer. This finding is expected to contribute future treatments.

Abstract
Exosomes are small lipid bilayer-encapsulated nanosized extracellular vesicles of endosomal origin. Exosomes are secreted by almost all cell types and are a crucial player in intercellular communication. Exosomes transmit cellular information from donor to recipient cells in the form of proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids and influence several physiological and pathological responses. Due to their capacity to carry a variety of cellular cargo, low immunogenicity and cytotoxicity, biocompatibility, and ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, these nanosized vesicles are considered excellent diagnostic tools and drug-delivery vehicles. Despite their tremendous potential, the progress in therapeutic applications of exosomes is hindered by inadequate isolation techniques, poor characterization, and scarcity of specific biomarkers. The current research in the field is focused on overcoming these limitations. In this chapter, we have reviewed conventional exosome isolation and characterization methods and recent advancements, their advantages and limitations, persistent challenges in exosome research, and future directions.

Abstract
Due to a lack of requirement for any direct labelling of the target molecule, high speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) is a potentially powerful procedure for the assessment of biological processes involving macromolecules. When the sample is static the AFM device can be purposefully setup to recover high-resolution information about the feature in question. However, when the feature to be studied moves an appreciable amount during the course of the measurement, the obtained image will be blurred. Encountering such blurred observations prompts the experimenter to sacrifice higher resolution images for higher scanning speeds by tuning available experimental parameters (such as the scanned image area, the image pixel size, the resonance frequency of the cantilever and/or the diameter of the AFM tip). The present work describes a software tool, HSAFM-MIREBA (High Speed Atomic Force Microscopy - Methodology for Inferring REsolution in Biological Applications) that allows for pre-experimental optimization of such parameters through iterative rounds of simulation of both the dynamic surface process and the HS-AFM measurement (based on the particular set of governing parameters). A representative set of five dynamic biological processes that describe a range of diffusive and directed motions (which can themselves be tuned by altering characteristic governing parameter sets) are provided.

Abstract
The molecular heterogeneity of extracellular vesicles (EVs) and the co-isolation of physically similar particles, such as lipoproteins (LPs), confounds and limits the sensitivity of EV bulk biomarker characterization. Herein, we present a single-EV and particle (siEVP) protein and RNA assay (siEVP PRA) to simultaneously detect mRNAs, miRNAs, and proteins in subpopulations of EVs and LPs. The siEVP PRA immobilizes and sorts particles via positive immunoselection onto micropatterns and focuses biomolecular signals in situ. By detecting EVPs at a single-particle resolution, the siEVP PRA outperformed the sensitivities of bulk-analysis benchmark assays for RNA and protein. To assess the specificity of RNA detection in complex biofluids, EVs from various glioma cell lines were processed with small RNA sequencing, whereby two mRNAs and two miRNAs associated with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) were chosen for cross-validation. Despite the presence of single-EV-LP co-isolates in serum, the siEVP PRA detected GBM-associated vesicular RNA profiles in GBM patient siEVPs. The siEVP PRA effectively examines intravesicular, intervesicular, and interparticle heterogeneity with diagnostic promise.

Abstract
Exosomes (EXOs) play a crucial role in biological action mechanisms. Understanding the biological process of single-molecule interactions on the surface of the EXO membrane is essential for elucidating the precise function of the EXO receptor. However, due to dimensional incompatibility, monitoring the binding events between EXOs of tens to hundreds of nanometers and biomolecules of nanometers using existing nanostructure antennas is difficult. Unlike the typical zero-mode waveguides (ZMWs), this work presents a nanocavity antenna (λvNAs) formed by nanocavities with diameters close to the visible light wavelength dimensions. Effective excitation volumes suitable for observing single-molecule fluorescence were generated in nanocavities of larger diameters than typical ZMWs; the optimal signal-to-noise ratio obtained was 19.5 when the diameter was 300 nm and the incident angle was ∼50°. EXOs with a size of 50-150 nm were loaded into λvNAs with an optimized diameter of 300-500 nm, resulting in appreciable occupancy rates that overcame the nanocavity size limitation for large-volume biomaterial loading. Additionally, this method identified the binding events between the single transmembrane CD9 proteins on the EXO surface and their monoclonal antibody anti-CD9, demonstrating that λvNAs expanded the application range beyond subwavelength ZMWs. Furthermore, the λvNAs provide a platform for obtaining in-depth knowledge of the interactions of single molecules with biomaterials ranging in size from tens to hundreds of nanometers.

Abstract
Scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM) is a promising tool for visualizing the dynamics of nanoscale cell surface topography. However, there are still no guidelines for fabricating nanopipettes with ideal shape consisting of small apertures and thin glass walls. Therefore, most of the SICM imaging has been at a standstill at the submicron scale. In this study, we established a simple and highly reproducible method for the fabrication of nanopipettes with sub-20 nm apertures. To validate the improvement in the spatial resolution, we performed time-lapse imaging of the formation and disappearance of endocytic pits as a model of nanoscale time-lapse topographic imaging. We have also successfully imaged the localization of the hot spot and the released extracellular vesicles. The nanopipette fabrication guidelines for the SICM nanoscale topographic imaging can be an essential tool for understanding cell-cell communication.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is associated with the aggregation of the misfolded neuronal peptide, amyloid-β42 (Aβ42). Evidence has suggested that several reasons are responsible for the toxicity caused by the aggregation of Aβ42, including the conformational restriction of Aβ42. In this study, one of the toxic conformers of Aβ42, which contains a Glu-to-Pro substitution (E22P-Aβ42), was explored using atomic force microscopy and molecular docking to study the aggregation dynamics. We proposed a systematic model of fibril formation to better understand the molecular basis of conformational transitions in the Aβ42 species. Our results demonstrated the formation of amorphous aggregates in E22P-Aβ42 that are stem-based, network-like structures, while the formation of mature fibrils occurred in the less toxic conformer of Aβ42, E22-Aβ42, that are sphere-like flexible structures. A comparison was made between the biophysical properties of E22P-Aβ42 and E22-Aβ42 that revealed that E22P-Aβ42 had greater stiffness, dihedral angle, number of β sheets involved, and elasticity, compared with E22-Aβ42. These findings will have considerable implications toward our understanding of the structural basis of the toxicity caused by conformational diversity in Aβ42 species.

A validation study for the utility of serum microRNA as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in patients with osteosarcoma. Oncol Lett 2023; 25:222.

Abstract
In our previous study, osteosarcoma advanced locally, and metastasis was promoted through the secretion of large number of small extracellular vesicles, followed by suppressing osteoclastogenesis via the upregulation of microRNA (miR)-146a-5p. An additional 12 miRNAs in small extracellular vesicles were also detected ≥6× as frequently in high-grade malignancy with the capacity to metastasize as in those with a low metastatic potential. However, the utility of these 13 miRNAs for determining the prognosis or diagnosis of osteosarcoma has not been validated in the clinical setting. In the present study, the utility of these miRNAs as prognostic and diagnostic markers was therefore assessed. In total, 30 patients with osteosarcoma were retrospectively reviewed, and the survival rate was compared according to the serum miRNA levels in 27 patients treated with chemotherapy and surgery. In addition, to confirm diagnostic competency for osteosarcoma, the serum miRNA levels were compared with those in patients with other bone tumors (n=112) and healthy controls (n=275). The patients with osteosarcoma with high serum levels of several miRNAs (miR-146a-5p, miR-1260a, miR-487b-3p, miR-1260b and miR-4758-3p) exhibited an improved survival rate compared with those with low levels. In particular, patients with high serum levels of miR-1260a exhibited a significantly improved overall survival rate, metastasis-free survival rate and disease-free survival rate compared with those with low levels. Thus, serum miR-1260a may potentially be a prognostic marker for patients with osteosarcoma. Moreover, patients with osteosarcoma had higher serum miR-1261 levels than those with benign or intermediate-grade bone tumors and thus may be a potential therapeutic target, in addition to being useful for differentiating whether or not a bone tumor is high-grade. A larger investigation is required to clarify the actual utility of these miRNAs in the clinical setting.

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
Ocular drug delivery is enigmatic on account of various physiological precorneal barriers that ultimately hinder efficient drug penetration and corneal absorption. Ultradeformable vesicles embody non-ionic surfactants, edge activators and vesicular builders that provide enormous elasticity and deformability. The elastic vesicles can cross the ocular barriers owing to their peculiar squeezability and distorting ability and, thus, establish an infallible shot for ocular delivery. This review provides an overview of the recent advancements and updates of elastic vesicles as effective ocular drug delivery vehicles.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles have shown good potential in disease treatments including ischemic injury such as myocardial infarction. However, the efficient production of highly active extracellular vesicles is one of the critical limitations for their clinical applications. Here, we demonstrate a biomaterial-based approach to prepare high amounts of extracellular vesicles with high bioactivity from endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) by stimulation with silicate ions derived from bioactive silicate ceramics. We further show that hydrogel microspheres containing engineered extracellular vesicles are highly effective in the treatment of myocardial infarction in male mice by significantly enhancing angiogenesis. This therapeutic effect is attributed to significantly enhanced revascularization by the high content of miR-126a-3p and angiogenic factors such as VEGF and SDF-1, CXCR4 and eNOS in engineered extracellular vesicles, which not only activate endothelial cells but also recruit EPCs from the circulatory system.

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
Sarcoma is a group of rare and heterogeneous mesenchymal tumors, prone to late diagnosis and poor prognosis. Exosomes are cell-derived small extracellular vesicles found in most body fluids and contain nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, and other molecules. Qualitative and quantitative changes of exosomes and the contents are associated with sarcoma progression, exhibiting their potential as biomarkers. Exosomes possess the capacity of evading immune responses, bioactivity for trafficking, tumor tropism, and lesion residence. Thus, exosomes could be engineered as tumor-specific vehicles in drugs and RNA delivery systems. Exosomes might also serve as therapeutic targets in targeted therapy and immunotherapy and be involved in chemotherapy resistance. Here, we provide a comprehensive summary of exosome applications in liquid biopsy-based diagnosis and explore their implications in the delivery system, targeted therapy, and chemotherapy resistance of sarcoma. Moreover, challenges in exosome clinical applications are raised and some future research directions are proposed.

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
AbstractExtracellular vesicles (EVs) are nano-sized vesicles derived from cells that transport biomaterials between cells through biofluids. Due to their biological role and components, they are considered as potential drug carriers and for diagnostic applications. Today's advanced nanotechnology enables single-particle-level analysis that was difficult in the past due to its small size below the diffraction limit. Single EV analysis reveals the heterogeneity of EVs, which could not be discovered by various ensemble analysis methods. Understanding the characteristics of single EVs enables more advanced pathological and biological researches. This review focuses on the advanced techniques employed for EV analysis at the single particle level and describes the principles of each technique.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles are evaluated by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), providing information on their hydrodynamic diameters, and by atomic force microscopy (AFM) to calculate their geometric diameters. The aim of this study is to explore the influence of Brownian movements in a sample drop and preparation time on imaging-based measurements and to determine the relationship between the geometric and hydrodynamic sizes of the extracellular vesicles measured by the AFM and the NTA, respectively. Exosomes derived from the human prostate cancer cell line PC3 were evaluated by NTA and AFM, and those results were compared with Monte Carlo simulations. The mean size, evaluated by AFM shortly after application on the mica substrate, is less than its real value. It obtains the correct value faster for a thinner sample drop. Fitting the log-normal distribution to the geometric and hydrodynamic diameters leads to the conclusion that the latter could arise from the former by linear scaling by a factor that could be used to characterize the analyzed extracellular vesicles. The size of the vesicles attached to the mica substrate depends on time. The effect of Brownian motion and stretch of the lipid bilayer should be considered in the context of exosome AFM studies.

Abstract
In additive manufacturing, bioink formulations govern strategies to engineer 3D living tissues that mimic the complex architectures and functions of native tissues for successful tissue regeneration. Conventional 3D-printed tissues are limited in their ability to alter the fate of laden cells. Specifically, the efficient delivery of gene expression regulators (i.e. microRNAs (miRNAs)) to cells in bioprinted tissues has remained largely elusive. In this study, we explored the inclusion of extracellular vesicles (EVs), naturally occurring nanovesicles (NVs), into bioinks to resolve this challenge. EVs show excellent biocompatibility, rapid endocytosis, and low immunogenicity, which lead to the efficient delivery of miRNAs without measurable cytotoxicity. EVs were fused with liposomes to prolong and control their release by altering their physical interaction with the bioink. Hybrid EVs-liposome (hEL) NVs were embedded in gelatin-based hydrogels to create bioinks that could efficiently encapsulate and deliver miRNAs at the target site in a controlled and sustained manner. The regulation of cells' gene expression in a 3D bioprinted matrix was achieved using the hELs-laden bioink as a precursor for excellent shape fidelity and high cell viability constructs. Novel regulatory factors-loaded bioinks will expedite the translation of new bioprinting applications in the tissue engineering field.

Abstract
Recently, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and also their exosome has become a game-changing tool in the context of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. MSCs due to their competencies to establish skin cells, such as fibroblast and keratinocyte, and also their unique attribute to suppress inflammation in wound site has attracted increasing attention among scholars. In addition, MSC's other capabilities to induce angiogenesis as a result of secretion of pro-angiogenic factors accompanied with marked anti-fibrotic activities, which mainly mediated by the releases matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs), make them a rational and effective strategy to accelerate wound healing with a small scar. Since the chief healing properties of the MSCs depend on their paracrine effects, it appears that MSCs-derived exosomes also can be an alternative option to support wound healing and skin regeneration as an innovative cell-free approach. Such exosomes convey functional cargos (e.g., growth factor, cytokine, miRNA, etc.) from MSCs to target cells, thereby affecting the recipient skin cells' biological events, such as migration, proliferation, and also secretion of ECM components (e.g., collagen). The main superiorities of exosome therapy over parental MSCs are the diminished risk of tumor formation and also lower immunogenicity. Herein, we deliver an overview of recent in vivo reports rendering the therapeutic benefits of the MSCs-based therapies to ease skin wound healing, and so improving quality of life among patients suffering from such conditions.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have shown significant promises as nano-/micro-size carriers in drug delivery and bioimaging. With more characteristics of EVs explored through tremendous research efforts, their unmatched physicochemical properties, biological features, and mechanical aspects make them unique vehicles, owning exceptional pharmacokinetics, circulatory metabolism and biodistribution pattern when delivering theranostic cargoes. In this review we firstly analyzed pros and cons of the EVs as a delivery platform. Secondly, compared to engineered nanoparticle delivery systems, such as biocompatible di-block co-polymers, rational design to improve EVs (exosomes in particular) were elaborated. Lastly, different pharmaceutical loading approaches into EVs were compared, reaching a conclusion on how to construct a clinically available and effective nano-/micro-carrier for a satisfactory medical mission.
