Over the last decade, the knowledge in extracellular vesicles (EVs) biogenesis and modulation has increasingly grown. As their content reflects the physiological state of their donor cells, these “intercellular messengers” progressively became a potential source of biomarker reflecting the host cell state. However, little is known about EVs released from the human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMECs). The current study aimed to isolate and characterize EVs from HBMECs and to analyze their EVs proteome modulation after paraquat (PQ) stimulation, a widely used herbicide known for its neurotoxic effect. Size distribution, concentration and presence of well-known EV markers were assessed. Identification and quantification of PQ-exposed EV proteins was conducted by data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS). Signature pathways of PQ-treated EVs were analyzed by gene ontology terms and pathway enrichment. Results highlighted that EVs exposed to PQ have modulated pathways, namely the ubiquinone metabolism and the transcription HIF-1 targets. These pathways may be potential molecular signatures of the PQ-induced toxicity carried by EVs that are reflecting their cell of origin by transporting with them irreversible functional changes.

Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine whether 17β-estradiol stimulates the synthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin : BH4), which is one of the cofactors of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells. Addition of 17()-estradiol to endothelial cells time- and concentration-dependently increased intracellular BH4 level. 17β-Estradiol also stimulated the mRNA level of GTP-cyclohydrolase I (GTPCH), which is a rate-limiting enzyme of the de novo BH4 synthetic pathway. In addition, the 17β-estradiol-induced expression of GTPCH mRNA was strongly attenuated by treatment with an inhibitor of 17β-estradiol receptor 4-hydroxy-tamoxlfen. These results suggest that 17β-estradiol stimulates BH4 synthesis through the induction of GTPCH by tamoxifensensitive receptor in vascular endothelial cells. The 17β-estradiol-induced increase in BH4 level might be implicated in not only NO production, but also protective effects of 17β-estradiol against ischemic brain damage and atherosclerosis, since BH4 is an intracellular antioxidant.
