Anti-Metastatic Function of Extracellular Vesicles Derived from <i>Nanog</i>-Overexpressing Melanoma

A metastatic melanoma cell line B16-F10 (F10) was modified to a more undifferentiated state by <i>Nanog</i> overexpression. The produced cell line <i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10 showed a higher metastatic potential than F10. Instead of whole cells, the extracellular...

description A metastatic melanoma cell line B16-F10 (F10) was modified to a more undifferentiated state by <i>Nanog</i> overexpression. The produced cell line <i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10 showed a higher metastatic potential than F10. Instead of whole cells, the extracellular vesicles (EVs) therefrom were investigated about their possible role as an autovaccine against metastasis. EVs from <i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10 cells (<i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10-EVs) could suppress the metastasis, contrasting the EVs from less metastatic F10 cells (F10-EVs) enhanced metastasis. The involvement of TGF-β1 in the role of <i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10-EVs was analyzed, as TGF-β1 was a secretory cytokine being affected most intensively by <i>Nanog</i> overexpression. It was suggested to be crucial that the TGF-β1 concentration in <i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10-EVs should be as low as 1.6 pg/μg for its metastasis-suppressive role. In response to <i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10-EVs, immunoreaction was observed in liver, indicating the specific decrease in the number of tumor-promotive CD163-positive macrophages. These indicate a possibility of <i>Nanog</i><sup>+</sup>F10-EVs as a novel autovaccine candidate against melanoma metastasis.
