Article Title: Tracking the EMT-like phenotype switching during targeted therapy in melanoma by analyzing extracellular vesicle phenotypes.

doi: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115819

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 1. Working scheme of tracking EMT-like phenotype switching during MAPKi therapy. (A) Melanoma cells undergo EMT-like phenotype switching in response to MAPKi therapy and secret EVs into blood circulation. (B) Serum EVs are captured by anti-MCSP and anti-MCAM antibodies immobilized on an electrode and subsequently labeled with SERS nanotags against EMT-associated biomarkers N-cadherin, E-cadherin, THBS1 and ABCB5 under the applied ac-EHD field. (C) EV phenotypes are characterized by SERS mapping. Under the laser excitation, SERS nanotags with MBA, TFMBA, DTNB, and MPY molecules generate characteristic peaks at 1075, 1375, 1335, and 1005 cm−1, respectively. The false-color SERS spectral images are established based on the characteristic Raman signals of four SERS nanotags, indicating the expression of four biomarkers (N-cadherin-MBA, red; E-cadherin-TFMBA, blue; THBS1-DTNB, green; ABCB5-MPY, yellow). The expression levels of four target biomarkers are determined by calculating the average signal spectra of false-color SERS spectral images. (D) EMT-associated EV phenotypic evolution in response to MAPKi treatment.
