Peptide Synthesis> | Briefly, freshly-isolated splenocytes from 6- up to 8- week-old female C57BL/6-Tg(TcraTcrb)1100Mjb/J (OT-I) mice were incubated for 1h with the OVA257-264 SIINFEKL peptide (10 nM, GenScript) in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS | Get A Quote |
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, modulate multiple aspects of cancer biology. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) secrete EVs, but their molecular features and functions are poorly characterized. Here, we report methodology for the enrichment, quantification, and proteomic and lipidomic analysis of EVs released from mouse TAMs (TAM-EVs). Compared to source TAMs, TAM-EVs present molecular profiles associated with a Th1/M1 polarization signature, enhanced inflammation and immune response, and a more favorable patient prognosis. Accordingly, enriched TAM-EV preparations promote T?cell proliferation and activation ex?vivo. TAM-EVs also contain bioactive lipids and biosynthetic e... More
