Popis: | The masses of particles in a bovine milk extracellular vesicle (EV) preparation enriched for exosomes were directly determined for the first time by charge detection mass spectrometry (CDMS). In CDMS, both the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) and z are determined simultaneously for individual particles, enabling mass determinations for particles that are far beyond the mass limit (∼1.0 MDa) of conventional mass spectrometry (MS). Particle masses and charges span a wide range from m ∼ 2 to ∼90 MDa and z ∼ 50 to ∼1300 e (elementary charges) and are highly dependent upon the conditions used to extract and isolate the EVs. EV particles span a continuum of masses, reflecting the highly heterogeneous nature of these samples. However, evidence for unique populations of particles is obtained from correlation of the charges and masses. An analysis that uses a two-dimensional Gaussian model, provides evidence for six families of particles, four of which having masses in the range expected for exosomes. Complementary proteomics measurements and electron microscopy (EM) imaging are used to further characterize the EVs and confirm that these samples have been enriched in exosomes. The ability to characterize such extremely heterogeneous mixtures of large particles with rapid, sensitive, and high-resolution MS techniques is critical to ongoing analytical efforts to separate and purify exosomes and exosome subpopulations. Direct measurement of each particle's mass and charge is a new means of characterizing the physical and chemical properties of exosomes and other EVs. |
