Abstract
Lung cancer has been recognized as the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Despite the improvements of treatment, the distant metastasis and recurrence of lung cancer caused by therapy resistance is the biggest challenge in clinical management. Extracellular vesicles named exosomes play crucial roles in intercellular communication as signaling mediators and are involved in tumor development. In this study, we isolated exosomes from irradiated lung cancer cells and co-cultured the exosomes with other lung cancer cells. It was found that cellular growth and motility of recipient cells were facilitated. High-throughput LC–MS/MS assay of exosomal proteins and Gene Ontology enrichment analyses indicated that the metabolic enzymes ALDOA and ALDH3A1 had potential contribution in exosome-enhanced motility of recipient cells, and clinical survival analysis demonstrated the close correlations between ALDOA or ALDH3A1 expression and poor prognosis of lung cancer patients. After co-culturing with exosomes derived from irradiated cancer cells, the expressions of these metabolic enzymes were elevated and the glycolytic activity was promoted in recipient cancer cells. In conclusion, our data suggested that exosomes from irradiated lung cancer cells regulated the motility of recipient cells by accelerating glycolytic process, where exosomal ALDOA and ALDH3A1 proteins were important signaling factors.Keywords
