Extracellular vesicles (EV) are involved in important processes of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), including malignancy and invasion. EV secreted by glioblastoma cells may cross the hematoencephalic barrier and carry molecular cargo derived from the tumor into the peripheral circulation. Therefore, the determination of the molecular composition of exosomes released by glioblastoma cells seems to be a promising approach for the development of non-invasive methods of the detection of the specific exosomal protein markers in the peripheral blood. The present study aimed to determine the common exosomal proteins presented in preparations from different cell lines and search potential glioblastoma biomarkers in exosomes. We have performed proteomics analysis of exosomes obtained from the conditioned culture medium of five glioblastoma cell lines. A list of 133 proteins common for all these samples was generated. Based on the data obtained, virtual two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) maps of proteins presented in exosomes of glioblastoma cells were constructed and the gene ontology (GO) analysis of exosome proteins was performed. A correlation between overexpressed in glial cell proteins and their presence in exosomes have been found. Thus, the existence of many potential glioblastoma biomarkers in exosomes was confirmed.
