Abstract
Exosomes have emerged as an important mediator of intercellular communication. They are present in extracellular milieu and therefore, easily accessible by neighboring or distant cells. They carry mRNA, microRNAs and proteins within their vesicles and once internalized by recipient cells; they can modulate multiple signaling pathways with pleiotropic effects from inducing antiviral state to disease progression. We have previously shown that hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected hepatocytes or hepatoma cells harboring genome-length replicon secrete exosomes in culture supernatants. These exosomes are taken up by hepatic stellate cells (HSC) and activate them to induce fibrosis during HCV infection. Here, we describe detailed protocols for exosomes isolation and uptake of BODIPY labeled exosomes by hepatic stellate cells.
Keywords: Exosomes (外泌体)Background
Exosomes are small membrane-bound extracellular vesicles of 40-150 nm in diameter. They have been identified in all body fluids, including urine, amniotic fluid, serum, saliva, breast milk, cerebrospinal fluid, nasal secretions and in the supernatant of tissue cultured cell lines. Exosomes mediate cell to cell communication through transfer of microRNAs (miRs), mRNAs, and proteins, etc. which can be taken up by neighboring or distant cells and subsequently promote signaling in recipient cells (Schorey et al., 2015). Exosomes are enriched in proteins, including members of the tetraspanin family (CD9, CD81, CD63), heat shock proteins (Hsp60, Hsp70, Hsp90) and proteins of the multivesicular bodies (annexins, RabGTPases and endosomal sorting complexes required for transport [ESCRT] proteins). Recent studies suggest that exosomes can influence immune response (Li et al., 2013; Sun et al., 2016), facilitate productive infection in naïve hepatoma cells (Ramakrishnaiah et al., 2013; Shrivastava et al., 2015), disease progression (Devhare et al., 2017) as well as drug resistance to anti-cancer therapy (Qu et al., 2016). Most commonly used techniques for isolation of exosomes involves ultracentrifugation (UC) and ExoQuick (EQ) precipitation. In hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, crosstalk between liver resident cells including hepatocytes, macrophages, endothelial cells, lymphocytes and stellate cells play an important role in disease progression. We have shown earlier that HCV infected hepatocytes or hepatoma cells harboring genome-length replicon secrete exosomes in the cell culture supernatants (Shrivastava et al., 2015). These exosomes carried miR-19a that induces fibrogenesis in hepatic stellate cells that might lead to liver fibrosis during HCV infection (Devhare et al., 2017). Here, we provide a protocol for labeling of exosomes with green fluorescent lipophilic dye, BODIPY that enables real-time monitoring and localization of exosomes within the recipient hepatic stellate cells.
