Abstract

Although interest in the role of extracellular vesicles (EV) in oncology is growing, not all potential aspects have been investigated. In this meta-analysis, data regarding (i) the EV proteome and (ii) the invasion and proliferation capacity of the NCI-60 tumor cell lines (60 cell lines from nine different tumor types) were analyzed using machine learning methods.On the basis of the entire proteome or the proteins shared by all EV samples, 60 cell lines were classified into the nine tumor types using multiple logistic regression. Then, utilizing the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator, we constructed a discriminative protein panel, upon which the samples were reclassified and pathway analyses were performed. These panels were validated using clinical data (n = 4,665) from Human Protein Atlas.Classification models based on the entire proteome, shared proteins, and discriminative protein panel were able to distinguish the nine tumor types with 49.15%, 69.10%, and 91.68% accuracy, respectively. Invasion and proliferation capacity of the 60 cell lines were predicted with R2 = 0.68 and R2 = 0.62 (p < 0.0001). The results of the Reactome pathway analysis of the discriminative protein panel suggest that the molecular content of EVs might be indicative of tumor-specific biological processes.Integrating in vitro EV proteomic data, cell physiological characteristics, and clinical data of various tumor types illuminates the diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential of EVs.
