Abstract :
Objective We aimed to identify the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) and functional differences between exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from umbilical cord (UC) or adipose tissue (AD). Materials and Methods In this experimental study, the UC and AD were isolated from healthy volunteers. Then, exosomes from UCMSCs and ADMSCs were isolated and characterized. Next, the protein compositions of the exosomes were examined via liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LCMS/MS), followed by evaluation of the DEPs between UCMSC and ADMSC–derived exosomes. Finally, functional enrichment analysis was performed. Results One hundred and ninetyeight key DEPs were identified, among which, albumin (ALB), alphaIIspectrin (SPTAN1), and Rasrelated C3 botulinum toxin substrate 2 (RAC2) were the three hub proteins present at the highest levels in the proteinprotein interaction network that was generated based on the shared DEPs. The DEPs were mainly enriched in gene ontology (GO) items associated with immunity, complement activation, and protein activation cascade regulation corresponding to 24 pathways, of which complement and coagulation cascades as well as platelet activation pathways were the most significant. ConclusionThe different functions of AD and UCMSC exosomes in clinical applications may be related to the differences in their immunomodulatory activities.
