Abstrakt: | Background: Thrombosis is one of the main complications in cancer patients often leading to mortality. However, the mechanisms underlying platelet hyperactivation are poorly understood. Methods: Murine and human platelets were isolated and treated with small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) from various cancer cell lines. The effects of these cancer-sEVs on platelets were evaluated both in vitro and in vivo using various approaches, including the detection of cancer-sEV-specific markers in murine platelets and patient samples, measurement of platelet activation and thrombosis assays. Signaling events induced by cancer-sEVs and leading to platelet activation were identified, and the use of blocking antibodies to prevent thrombosis was demonstrated. Results: We demonstrate that platelets very effectively take up sEVs from aggressive cancer cells. The process of uptake is fast, proceeds effectively in circulation in mice, and is mediated by the abundant sEV membrane protein-CD63. The uptake of cancer-sEVs leads to the accumulation of cancer cell-specific RNA in platelets in vitro and in vivo. The human prostate cancer-sEV-specific RNA marker PCA3 is detected in platelets of ~70% of prostate cancer patients. This was markedly reduced after prostatectomy. In vitro studies showed that platelet uptake of cancer-sEVs induces strong platelet activation in a CD63-RPTPα (receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase alpha)-dependent manner. In contrast to physiological agonists ADP and thrombin, cancer-sEVs activate platelets via a noncanonical mechanism. Intravital studies demonstrated accelerated thrombosis both in murine tumor models and in mice that received intravenous injections of cancer-sEVs. The prothrombotic effects of cancer-sEVs were rescued by blocking CD63. Conclusions: Tumors communicate with platelets by means of sEVs, which deliver cancer markers and activate platelets in a CD63-dependent manner leading to thrombosis. This emphasizes the diagnostic and prognostic value of platelet-associated cancer markers and identifies new pathways for intervention. Competing Interests: Disclosures None. |
