Embodiment 1
[0166] Isolation of exosomes from synovial fluid by polymer precipitation
[0167] By polymer precipitation (ExoQuick TM , from SBI, Palo Alto, CA) to isolate exosomes. The technology captures and collects exosomes in a "polymer mesh" that is recovered by low-speed centrifugation. Once the exosome pellet was obtained, the supernatant containing excess polymer was removed, and then the pelleted exosomes were resuspended in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution to dissolve the polymer network and release intact exosomes.
Embodiment 2
[0169] Validation of isolated exosomes
[0170] To confirm the functional exosomes isolated by the polymer precipitation method described in Example 1, the identity of the exosomes was verified by measuring the presence of appropriate biomarkers, as described below.
[0171] Exosomes were isolated from the synovial fluid of patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis (n=6) by the method described above, and the exosomes were verified by Western blot using a specific exosomal marker: tetraspanin ( tetraspanins), CD9, CD63, CD81 (located on the surface of exosomes), and proteins expressed by tumor susceptibility gene 101 ("TSG101") present in exosomes.
[0172] The isolated exosomes were added to RIPA buffer supplemented with protease inhibitors (Sigma-Aldrich) (150mM sodium chloride, 1% NP-40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, 50mM Lysis was carried out in Tris (Tris, pH 8.0) on ice for 30 minutes. Lysates were quantified for Bradford assay (Bio-Rad) and 25 μg of protein was mix...
Embodiment 3
[0179] Effects of exosomes isolated from synovial fluid on M1 macrophages
[0180] To verify the immunomodulatory properties of synovial fluid-derived exosomes, exosomes were isolated by polymer precipitation as described in Example 1. CD14+ monocytes were purified from healthy donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells (“PBMCs”) using the Human CD14+ Cell Enrichment Kit (StemCell Technologies) by adding 100 ng / ml granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF, Peprotech) for 10 days to differentiate into M1 macrophages, then treated with 150 UI / ml interferon (“IFN”) gamma (“γ”) (Peprotech) and 10 ng / ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (Sigma-Aldrich ) stimulated for 24 hours in the presence of exosomes, as Figure 4A shown.
[0181] M1 macrophages are pro-inflammatory cells with potent antimicrobial activity that promote T helper cell responses. by using supernatants derived from M1-macrophages Assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories) measures cytokine production in M1 macrophages. ...
