Loading milk exosomes with urolithins boosts their delivery to the brain: Comparing the activity of encapsulated vs. free urolithins in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells

The gut microbial-derived metabolites of ellagitannins and ellagic acid, urolithins (Uros) are well-established anti-cancer metabolites according to preclinical studies. However, their efficacy is limited in systemic tissues, including the brain, by phase-II metabolism. Exosomes (EXOs), extracellula...

However, their efficacy is limited in systemic tissues, including the brain, by phase-II metabolism. Exosomes (EXOs), extracellular vesicles involved in cell signaling with the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB), could protect polyphenols from metabolism. Therefore, we loaded milk EXOs with Uro-A, Uro-B or IsoUro-A to evaluate their brain delivery and anticancer effects compared to non-encapsulated Uros. In Sprague-Dawley rats, perfused brain tissue analyses by UPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS showed higher Uro levels (∼3−4-fold) at 5 min following intravenous administration of EXO-Uros compared to non-encapsulated Uros, except for Uro-B, using similar Uro concentrations (17−30 μM). Experiments on neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells revealed dose-dependent antiproliferative effects for all EXO-Uros (0.3−1.2 μM), but not with non-encapsulated Uros (10 μM). Flow cytometry analyses indicated that only EXO-Uros arrested the cell cycle and induced apoptosis. Finally, using fluorescent-labeled EXOs and selective inhibitors, the primary endocytic pathway was revealed to be clathrin-dependent. Overall, encapsulating Uros into EXOs is promising for enhancing brain delivery and anticancer activity.This work was supported by the by the grants TED 2021-130962B–C21 and TED 2021-130962B–C22 funded by MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and by the “European Union” or by the “European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR”, PID 2022-136419OB-I00, and PID 2022-143100OB-I00 funded by MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and “ERDF A way of making Europe”, the grant 22030/PI/22 funded by the Programa Regional de Fomento de la Investigación Científica y Técnica (Plan de Actuación 2022) de la Fundación Séneca-Agencia de Ciencia y Tecnología de la Región de Murcia (Murcia, Spain), and the AGROALNEXT program supported by MCIN with funding from the European Union NextGenerationEU (PRTR-C17.
