Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), which carry lipids, proteins and RNAs from their parent cells, serve as biomarkers for specific cell types biological states. These vesicles, including exosomes microvesicles, facilitate intercellular communication by transferring cellular components between cells. Current methods, such ultracentrifugation Tim-4 affinity method, yield high-purity sEVs. However, despite small size, purified sEVs remain heterogeneous due to varied intracellular origins. In this technical note, we used high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) in conjunction with exosome markers (IgGCD63 IgGCD81) explore the origins of at single-sEV resolution. Our results first revealed nanotopology HEK293T-derived under physiological conditions. Larger (diameter > 100 nm) exhibited greater height fluctuations compared smaller ≤ nm). Next, found that mouse-origin IgGCD63, rabbit-origin IgGcontrol IgGCD81, iconic 'Y' conformation, similar structural dynamics properties. Last, marker antibodies predominantly co-localised sEVd nm but not nm, demonstrating CD63-CD81-enriched sEV CD63-CD81-depleted subpopulations. summary, demonstrate nanoscopic profiling surface on using HS-AFM is feasible characterising distinct subpopulations a mixture.
