    Abstract Bacteria contribute to human host (patho)physiology through the production of a myriad of biomolecules enclosed in membrane vesicles [bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs)]. Recent research revealed that BEVs, as a functional output of bacteria, enter the systemic circulation. Here, we highlight the current state of knowledge on the origin, translocation, distribution, function, and excretion or elimination of systemically circulating BEVs and delineate knowledge gaps. Further investigations on the so far occult stages of BEV entry beyond the walls of epithelial and immune barriers will unmask the role of BEVs in health and disease.

    Abstract Background: Substantial research has been devoted to elucidating the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the different hallmarks of cancer. Consequently, EVs are increasingly explored as a source of cancer biomarkers in body fluids. However, the heterogeneity in EVs, the complexity of body fluids, and the diversity in methods available for EV analysis, challenge the development and translation of EV-based biomarker assays.
    Content: Essential steps in EV-associated biomarker development are emphasized covering biobanking, biomarker discovery, verification and validation, and clinical implementation. A meticulous study design is essential and ideally results from close interactions between clinicians and EV researchers. A plethora of different EV preparation protocols exists which warrants quality control and transparency to ensure reproducibility and thus enable verification of EV-associated biomarker candidates identified in the discovery phase in subsequent independent cohorts. The development of an EV-associated biomarker assay requires thorough analytical and clinical validation. Finally, regulatory affairs must be considered for clinical implementation of EV-based biomarker assays.
    Summary: In this review, the current challenges that prevent us from exploiting the full potential of EV-based biomarker assays are identified. Guidelines and tools to overcome these hurdles are highlighted and are crucial to advance EV-based biomarker assays into clinical use.

    Abstract The identification of the molecular composition of extracellular vesicles (EV) by omics approaches, including proteomics, requires the separation of EV from non-EV confounding factors present in the source biofluid. In this protocol, we present the sequential implementation of density gradient ultracentrifugation and size-exclusion chromatography to prepare EV from cell-conditioned medium with high specificity and repeatability. This approach enables the recovery of intact purified EV suited for downstream functional assays and biomarker discovery by omics approaches.

  6. Article ; Online: Relations Between Abiotic and Biotic Environmental Variables and Occupancy of Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) in Autumn

    Abstract There is much debate about the extent to which water management in the upper San Francisco Estuary, California, affects the habitat and status of delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), an endemic fish protected under the US and California Endangered Species Acts. For example, current management reflects the hypothesis that salinity, and in some cases the location of the tidally averaged salinity of 2 parts per thousand (X2), is a reliable indication of habitat quality. We evaluated hypotheses about environmental drivers of the quality of delta smelt habitat (probability of occupancy) during autumn that were developed by experts on the species and estuary. We fit Bayesian occupancy models, which account for imperfect detection, and identified those that best predicted the presence of delta smelt in catch data from 1980 to 2015. The most strongly supported model indicated that occupancy was associated with salinity (measured as specific conductance) and temperature, and detection was associated with body size, sample volume, water clarity, and tidal stage. The second most strongly supported model indicated that occupancy was associated with the abundance of a hypothesized competitor, threadfin shad (Dorosoma petenense), an expert-elicited index of predation intensity, and water clarity, and detection was associated with body size, sample volume, water clarity, and time of day. Our results suggested that clarity did not affect occupancy, but affected finer-resolution processes of local presence and detection at sampling stations. Spatial patterns in occupancy were consistent in wet and dry years, suggesting that management on the basis of salinity oversimplifies estimation of habitat quantity and quality.

    Abstract Assessment of cell free DNA (cfDNA) and RNA (cfRNA), circulating tumor cells (CTC) and extracellular vesicles (EV) in blood or other bodily fluids can enable early cancer detection, tumor dynamics assessment, minimal residual disease detection and therapy monitoring. However, few liquid biopsy tests progress towards clinical application because results are often discordant and challenging to reproduce. Reproducibility can be enhanced by the development and implementation of standard operating procedures and reference materials to identify and correct for pre-analytical variables. In this review we elaborate on the technological considerations, pre-analytical variables and the use and availability of reference materials for the assessment of liquid biopsy targets in blood and highlight initiatives towards the standardization of liquid biopsy testing.

    Abstract Despite optimal multimodal treatment including surgical resection, 50%-80% of high-grade soft tissue sarcoma (STS) patients metastasize. Here, we present a protocol for the generation and use of post-surgical minimal residual disease models to investigate metastatic relapse in STS patient-derived xenografts. We describe steps for orthotopic engraftment of high-grade STS patient-derived tumor tissue. We then detail procedures for primary tumor resection with broad, negative resection margins and follow-up until metastases using MRI. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Fischer et al. (2023).
