Analysis of Proteins and Peptides of Highly Purified CD9+ and CD63+ Horse Milk Exosomes Isolated by Affinity Chromatography.
Abstract: Exosomes are nanovesicles with a 40-150 nm diameter and are essential for communication between cells. Literature data suggest that exosomes obtained from different sources (cell cultures, blood plasma, urea, saliva, tears, spinal fluid, milk) using a series of centrifugations and ultracentrifugations contain hundreds and thousands of different protein and nucleic acid molecules. However, most of these proteins are not an intrinsic part of exosomes; instead, they co-isolate with exosomes. Using consecutive ultracentrifugation, gel filtration, and affinity chromatography on anti-CD9- and anti-CD63-Sepharoses, we isolated highly purified vesicle preparations from 18 horse milk samples. Gel filtration of the initial preparations allowed us to remove co-isolating proteins and their complexes and to obtain highly purified vesicles morphologically corresponding to exosomes. Using affinity chromatography on anti-CD9- and anti-CD63-Sepharoses, we obtained extra-purified CD9 and CD63 exosomes, which simultaneously contain these two tetraspanins, while the CD81 tetraspanin was presented in a minor quantity. SDS-PAGE and MALDI analysis detected several major proteins with molecular masses over 10 kDa: CD9, CD63, CD81, lactadherin, actin, butyrophilin, lactoferrin, and xanthine dehydrogenase. Analysis of extracts by trifluoroacetic acid revealed dozens of peptides with molecular masses in the range of 0.8 to 8.5 kDa. Data on the uneven distribution of tetraspanins on the surface of horse milk exosomes and the presence of peptides open new questions about the biogenesis of these extracellular vesicles.

This research investigates the proteins and peptides found in highly purified exosomes, or nanovesicles, from horse milk, using a series of lab techniques. The researchers noted the interesting distribution of proteins on the surface of these exosomes, suggesting new possibilities for understanding their function and production.
Exosome Isolation
- The researchers began by isolating exosomes from 18 samples of horse milk. Many cellular entities, including exosomes, contain hundreds to thousands of protein and nucleic acid molecules, but many of these are not intrinsically part of the exosomes and simply co-isolate with them.
- The researchers used a series of processes, including consecutive ultracentrifugation, gel filtration, and affinity chromatography, to obtain highly purified vesicle (small fluid-filled sac) preparation. The techniques helped to remove co-isolating proteins and their complexes, leading to highly purified vesicles that morphologically correspond to exosomes. This means that after the purification process, the vesicles looked and behaved like exosomes.
Protein and Peptide Analysis
- After obtaining these exosomal preparations, the team followed an analytical process to determine the peptide and protein constituents. The researchers used affinity chromatography on anti-CD9- and anti-CD63-Sepharoses, model systems often used to study protein interactions in exosomes, to obtain extra-purified CD9 and CD63 exosomes.
- An examination showed that the CD9 and CD63 exosomes contained additional tetraspanins, including a minor quantity of CD81 tetraspanin, an integral membrane protein commonly found in exosomes.
Key Findings
- Using a combination of SDS-PAGE and MALDI analysis, the research indicates several major proteins with molecular masses over 10 kDa, including CD9, CD63, CD81, lactadherin, actin, butyrophilin, lactoferrin, and xanthine dehydrogenase. The analysis on peptides using trifluoroacetic acid revealed a range of peptides, specific to exosomes, with molecular masses in the range of 0.8 to 8.5 kDa.
- The uneven distribution of tetraspanins (a family of membrane proteins including CD9, CD63, and CD81) on the surface of horse milk exosomes, and the presence of peptides, stimulates new scientific questions about the origin and production of these cellular vesicles. This could lead to better understanding of their functions and roles in cell-to-cell communication.
