Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are microvesicles secreted from various cell types. We aimed to discover a new biomarker for high Gleason score (GS) prostate cancer (PCa) in urinary EVs via quantitative proteomics. EVs were isolated from urine after massage from 18 men (negative biopsy [n = 6], GS 6 PCa [n = 6], or GS 8-9 PCa [n = 6]). EV proteins were labeled with iTRAQ and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. We identified 4710 proteins and quantified 3528 proteins in the urinary EVs. Eleven proteins increased in patients with PCa compared to those with negative biopsy (ratio >1.5, p-value < 0.05). Eleven proteins were chosen for further analysis and verified in 29 independent urine samples (negative [n = 11], PCa [n = 18]) using selected reaction monitoring/multiple reaction monitoring. Among these candidate markers, fatty acid binding protein 5 (FABP5) was higher in the cancer group than in the negative group (p-value = 0.009) and was significantly associated with GS (p-value for trend = 0.011). Granulin, AMBP, CHMP4A, and CHMP4C were also higher in men with high GS prostate cancer (p-value < 0.05). FABP5 in urinary EVs could be a potential biomarker of high GS PCa.
细胞外囊泡(EVs)是各种细胞分泌的微囊泡。我们旨在通过定量蛋白质组学在尿 EVs 中发现高格里森评分(GS)前列腺癌(PCa)的新型生物标志物。从 18 名男性(阴性活检 [n=6]、GS 6 PCa [n=6]或 GS 8-9 PCa [n=6])按摩后的尿液中分离 EVs。用 iTRAQ 标记 EV 蛋白,并用 LC-MS/MS 分析。我们在尿 EVs 中鉴定了 4710 种蛋白质和定量了 3528 种蛋白质。与阴性活检患者相比,11 种蛋白质在 PCa 患者中增加(比值>1.5,p 值<0.05)。选择 11 种蛋白质进行进一步分析,并在 29 份独立的尿液样本(阴性 [n=11],PCa [n=18])中使用选择反应监测/多重反应监测进行验证。在这些候选标志物中,脂肪酸结合蛋白 5(FABP5)在癌症组中高于阴性组(p 值=0.009),并且与 GS 显著相关(趋势 p 值=0.011)。颗粒蛋白、AMBP、CHMP4A 和 CHMP4C 在高 GS 前列腺癌患者中也更高(p 值<0.05)。尿 EVs 中的 FABP5 可能是高 GS PCa 的潜在生物标志物。
