Proteomic and functional characterisation of extracellular vesicles from collagen VI deficient human fibroblasts reveals a role in cell motility
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of cell-to-cell communication. Their content reflects the state of diseased cells representing a window into disease progression. Collagen-VI Related Muscular Dystrophy (COL6-RD) is a multi-systemic disease involving different cell types. The role of EV...

| Sumario: | Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of cell-to-cell communication. Their content reflects the state of diseased cells representing a window into disease progression. Collagen-VI Related Muscular Dystrophy (COL6-RD) is a multi-systemic disease involving different cell types. The role of EVs in this disease has not been explored. We compared by quantitative proteomics the protein cargo of EVs released from fibroblasts from patients with COL6-RD and controls. Isolated EVs contained a significant proportion of the most frequently reported proteins in EVs according to Exocarta and Vesiclepedia. We identified 67 differentially abundant proteins associated with vesicle transport and exocytosis, actin remodelling and the cytoskeleton, hemostasis and oxidative stress. Treatment of control fibroblasts with EVs from either patient or healthy fibroblasts altered significantly the motility of cells on a cell migration assay highlighting the functional relevance of EVs. In parallel, we analysed the secretome from the same cells and found a distinctly different set of 48 differentially abundant proteins related to extracellular matrix organisation and remodelling, growth factor response, RNA metabolism and the proteasome. The EVs and secretome sets of proteins only shared two identifiers indicating that the sorting of proteins towards EVs or the secretory pathway is tightly regulated for different functions. . |
