Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Purified LEVs and SEVs were run on a colloidal blue-stained gel. Four arrows denote SEV bands that were cut and submitted for proteomics, along with notable proteins identified (see for the full proteomics results). ( B ) B16F1 total cell lysate (TCL), LEVs, and density gradient purified SEVs were run on an SDS-PAGE gel and probed by western blot for endoglin, and EV positive (HSP70, TSG101, flotillin-1, and CD63) and negative (GM130) markers. ( C ) Total cell lysate (TCL) and small EVs (SEVs) from endoglin-KD (shEng) and control (shScr) B16F1 cells were run on an SDS-PAGE gel and probed by western blot for endoglin, EV marker TSG101, and EV-negative marker GM130. ( D ) Representative images from control (shScr) or endoglin-KD (shEng) B16F1 cell lines incubated for 18 hr with no EVs (left panels), or with SEVs purified from control (+shScr SEVs) or shEng cell lines (+shEng SEVs) (right panels). Arrowheads indicate example filopodia. Scale bar = 10 mm. ( E ) Quantification of filopodia in control (shScr) and endoglin knockdown (shEng) cells treated with the indicated number of LEVs or SEVs for 18 hr (≥20 cells per condition per biological replicate, from three biological replicates). ( F ) Filopodia number in B16F1 control (shLacZ) or exosome-depleted (shHrs) cells treated with indicated numbers of LEVs, control (shScr) SEVs, or endoglin-KD (shEng1) SEVs for 18 hr. ≥20 cells per condition per biological replicate, from three biological replicates. Representative images for this experiment are shown in . ( G, H ) B16F1 cells were transfected with tdTomato-F-Tractin and imaged live every 30 s for 15 min. Only filopodia that form and fully retract during the duration of each video were quantified. ( G ) De novo filopodia formation. ( H ) Filopodia lifetime, defined as the time from initial filopodia formation to full retraction. Bars represent mean and error bars are SEM.
