As we progress into the 21st century, cancer stands as one of most dreaded diseases. With approximately in every four individuals facing a lifetime risk developing cancer, remains serious health challenges worldwide. Its multifaceted nature makes it an arduous and tricky problem to diagnose treat. Over years, researchers have explored plenty approaches avenues improve management. One notable strategy includes study extracellular vesicles (EVs) potential biomarkers therapeutics. Among these EVs, exosomes emerged particularly promising candidates due their unique characteristic properties functions. They are small membrane-bound secreted by cells carrying cargo biomolecules such proteins, nucleic acids, lipids. These play crucial roles intercellular communication, facilitating transfer biological information between cell-to-cell communication. Exosomes transport cargoes DNA, RNA, lipids involved cellular reprogramming promoting cancer.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumor heterogeneity impedes the development of biomarker assays suitable for early disease detection that would improve patient outcomes. The CA19-9 glycan is currently used as a standalone PDAC. Furthermore, previous studies have shown cancer cells may display aberrant membrane-associated glycans. We therefore hypothesized PDAC cell subpopulations could be distinguished by signatures. multiplexed immunofluorescence combined with pathologist annotation and automated image processing to distinguish between within tissue. Using training-set/test-set approach, we found identified signatures comprising 4 glycans (VVL, CA19-9, sTRA, GM2) there are three glycan-defined types: sTRA type, intermixed. To determine whether detected in blood samples, developed hybrid sandwich In both patient-matched proportion was consistent. our immunofluorescent approach proved more sensitive specific than alone.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale structures involved in intercellular communication and play a key role cancer pathology. Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is highly invasive malignancy marked by abnormal sialylated glycosylation. Analyzing proteins glycans EVs provides insights into ICC molecular subtyping mechanisms. Optimizing EV isolation methods for ICC-derived enables comprehensive proteomic glycomic analysis. We systematically evaluated five methods-Ultracentrifugation (UC), exoEasy, Total Exosome Isolation (TEI), EVtrap, ÄKTA-by analyzing the biophysical properties, profiles, of EVs. Subsequently, we applied TMT-based quantitative proteome light/heavy methylamine labeling quantification N-glycan linkage isomers to investigate alterations N-glycans within secreted HuCCT1 HCCC-9810 cells with overexpressing ST6 β‑galactoside α2,6‑sialyltransferase 1 (ST6GAL1). By evaluating proteome, N-glycome extracted using different methods, UC was identified as optimal approach this study, it offered balance between operational complexity, cost-effectiveness, preservation activity. In total 1,928 high-confidence over 84 were quantified. ST6GAL1 exhibited consistent upregulation 16 proteins, downregulation 10 well 3 glycans. Quantitative analysis revealed that overexpression led significant cell adhesion glycosylation pathways, along specific changes structures. Notably, these modifications extended beyond α2,6-sialylation, suggesting interactions glycosyltransferases may drive alterations.
