## Abstract

Numerous biological processes are regulated by the intercellular communications arising from extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from cells. However, the mechanisms that regulate the quantity of EV discharged have yet to be understood. While it is known that ATP9A, a P4-ATPase, is involved in endosomal recycling, it is not clear whether it also contributes to the release of EVs and the makeup of exosomal lipids. This study is aimed at exploring the role of human ATP9A in the process of EV release and, further, to analyze the profiles of EV lipids regulated by ATP9A. Our results demonstrate that ATP9A is located in both the intracellular compartments and the plasma membrane. The percentage of ceramides and sphingosine was found to be significantly greater in the control cells than in the ATP9A overexpression and ATP9A knockout groups. However, EV release was greater in ATP9A knockout cells, indicating that ATP9A inhibits the release of EVs. This study revealed the effects of ATP9A on the release of EVs and the lipid composition of exosomes.

## Body

## 1. Introduction

As extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from cells are mediators of intercellular communications, they can transmit information between cells and are involved in tissue development and disease progression [1, 2]. EVs are categorized according to diameter, which ranges from 50 to 1000 nm. Based on the formation of EVs, they are categorized as either ectosomes or exosomes [3]. Ectosomes are created directly by the plasma membrane forming outward buds. Exosomes, however, are combination products of multivesicular endosomes (MVEs) fusing with the plasma membrane which are then discharged into extracellular space [4, 5].One distinctive characteristic of eukaryotic cells is the composition of phospholipids in the plasma membrane, which are not distributed symmetrically. This has long been recognized as a potential influence on the release of vesicles. The distribution of phospholipid species differs in the two leaflets of biological membranes. The leaflet exposed to cytosol consists of phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), whereas the exoplasmic leaflet contains mostly phosphatidylcholine (PC) and sphingomyelin [6]. This asymmetric phospholipid distribution is an important aspect in numerous diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, hepatic steatosis, and metabolic disorders. The asymmetric distribution is also involved in many physiological processes, including apoptosis, blood coagulation, apoptosis, cell signaling, cell and organelle morphology, host-virus interactions, intracellular vesicle trafficking, membrane permeability and stability, and regulation of membrane proteins [7, 8].Usually, ATP-dependent lipid transporters are responsible for maintaining homeostasis of the phospholipid distribution; however, PS can be redistributed to the exoplasmic leaflet in response to pathophysiological conditions. This has been observed in platelet activation, in exosome release from tumor tissues, and in the majority of immune cell types, such as activated B cells, bone marrow-derived monocytes, dendritic cells, and macrophages [9].The asymmetry of lipids is maintained actively by a variety of transporter families [10, 11]. One particular family is the P-type ATPase family, and the members of its largest subfamily, P4-ATPase, are known as flippases [7, 12]. These ATP-dependent enzymes relocate certain phospholipids away from the membrane’s outer leaflet and toward the inner leaflet. This maintains the membrane’s lipid asymmetry, which has been highlighted previously to be critical to several cellular processes. Mounting evidence indicates that in eukaryotic cells, P4-ATPases play a key role in the biogenesis of the transport vesicles involved in the biosynthetic and endocytic pathways [11].Models characterizing the role of P4-ATPases in lipid translocation pathways have been informed by site-directed mutagenesis and structural modeling studies [13, 14]; however, the fundamental features of the transport pathway, the electrogenic properties of the flippases, and the mechanisms by which flipping occurs remain unclear. Using TAT-5, the P4-ATPase of Caenorhabditis elegans, Wehman et al. showed that the enzyme was involved in the release of EVs and maintenance of PE asymmetry [15]. Whereas, human ATP9A and ATP9B, which are orthologous to TAT-5, are primarily found inside intracellular compartments [16]. ATP9A is recognized as a regulator for endosomal recycling [17]; whether it contributes to EV release and the lipid profiles of exosomes has not yet been determined. It is well-known that during cell division, fusion, and death, cells regulate PE asymmetry and EV release [18]. Therefore, we hypothesized that ATP9 is involved in plasma membrane biosynthesis, cell outward budding, and EV release. This study examines the effects of ATP9A on the composition of exosomal lipids and the release of EVs in a human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cell line.


## 2. Materials and Methods

### 2.1. Cell Culture

DMEM medium (DMEM; Life Technologies) plus 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Gibco) supplement was used to sustain the HEK293 cell line at 37°C and 5% CO2. Synovial fluid-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (SF-MSCs) were cultured in MesenGro Chemically Defined Medium.


### 2.2. Overexpression of ATP9A

Control for this study was provided by the lentivirus empty vector, pLenti-C-RFP, which does not contain any human genes. The 293T cells were variously transfected with pLenti-C-RFP, pMD2.G, and psPAX2. After 48 h, lentivirus was harvested and used to infect MSCs, followed by puromycin selection (used as plv-NC group). The whole length of the ATP9A gene was subcloned into the destination pLenti-C-RFP plasmids. pLenti ATP9A-RFP plasmids were then cotransfected into HEK293T cells along with psPAX2 and pMD2.G packaging vectors. Lentivirus particles released from HEK293T cells were harvested and filtered and then used to infect MSCs. Puromycin was used to select cells expressing ATP9A-OV.


### 2.3. ATP9A Knockout

The lentiCRISPRv2 plasmid was used, as this vector expresses Cas9 nuclease and inserts ATP9A-specific single-guide RNA (sgRNA) simultaneously [19]. The online tool CRISPR DESIGN (https://CRISPR.mit.edu) was used to design sgRNA. The oligo sequence 5′-AGGAGATCCGATGCTACGTG-3′ was created and then annealed before subcloning into lentiCRISPRv2. To produce the lentivirus, cloned lenti-CRISPRv2 sgATP9A plasmids were transferred into HEK293T cells with packaging plasmids pMD2.G and psPAX2 using Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). MSCs were infected with purified lentivirus, and a monoclonal cell line was selected using puromycin.


### 2.4. Confocal Microscopy

Cells were stably infected with lentivirus ATP9A-RFP on a 35 mm confocal dish at 37°C. After 48 h, cells were washed twice with PBS. To fix the cells, 4% paraformaldehyde was used. DAPI-containing mounting medium was used to mount the cells. Using a 60x oil objective, an LSM 800 confocal laser scanning microscope (Carl Zeiss) was used to collect images. The device was equipped with DAPI (405 nm) and red (568 nm) lasers.


### 2.5. Quantification of EVs in Culture Medium

To detect and analyze the concentrations and sizes of exosomes, NanoSight N3000 (Malvern, Ltd., Malvern, UK) nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) was used. The measuring duration was 60 s, and parameters were applied according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The EVs were diluted to 1 ml with PBS; the NTA 3.2 software (version 3.2.16) calculated exosome distribution and size [20].


### 2.6. Purification of Exosomes

To remove apoptotic cell bodies and cellular debris, the medium (20 ml) was centrifuged at 200 G for 10 min, and then again at 2,000 G for 20 min. To remove macrovesicles, the supernatant was ultracentrifuged at 10,000 G for 25 min. Ultracentrifugation was used at 100,000 G for 60 min to retrieve exosomes. Exosome pellets were washed once with PBS, then centrifuged again at 100,000 G for 60 min. The resultant pellets were resuspended in 500μl PBS. A Bradford assay was conducted to determine the concentration of protein. Western blotting was performed to detect exosome marker CD9, tumor susceptibility gene 101 (TSG101), Alix, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) marker calnexin.


### 2.7. Metabolite Extraction and Lipidomics

A solution of exosome pellets in chloroform/methanol/water (2/1/1,v/v/v) was vortexed for 1 min then centrifuged for 10 min at 3000 G. The organic phage was harvested and transferred to a fresh tube, and nitrogen was used to lyophilize the phage. Isopropanol/methanol (1/1, v/v) solution (400 μl) was used to reconstitute dried metabolites. These were then vortexed and centrifuged at 10,000 G for 5 min at 4°C. LC-MS and a Kinetex C18 column (100×2.1mm, 1.9 μm) were used to analyze supernatant. The flow rate was set at 0.4 ml/min. Lipidomic assays in positive mode and negative mode were conducted following the protocol described in a previous report [21].Lipid Search v 4.0.20 software (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) was used to process the raw data obtained from the LC-S analysis. Each sample’s data was normalized to total area. The sample number, normalized peak intensities, and all variate data (including retention time (rt) and charge-to-mass ratio (m/z)) were uploaded to SIMCA-P+ 12.0 software (Umetrics, Umea, Sweden). Multivariate analyses were performed to categorize the lipid samples; this included orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and principal component analysis (PCA). A permutation test with the permutation number of 200 was used to validate the OPLS-DA models [22].Using Lipid Search software (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA), a qualitative analysis of the lipid metabolites was performed. The information collected included the type of lipids, chain length, and number of saturated bonds. The screening conditions for the potential lipid biomarkers were determined by the lipid metabolites in the OPLS-DA model havingvariableimportanceintheprojectionVIPscores>1 and P values obtained from the t−test<0.05.


### 2.8. Statistical Analysis

GraphPad Prism 7.0 was used to determine whether differences between groups were significantly different. For differences between two groups, an unpaired, two-sided Student’st-test was conducted, whereas, for three or more groups, a one-way ANOVA was used. Statistical significance is set as P<0.05.

## 3. Results

To explore ATP9A’s role in EV release in HEK293 cells, the location of ATP9A in the cells was examined. Using red fluorescent protein- (RFP-) tagged ATP9A (ATP9A-OV), it was noted that the location of ATP9A in the cells was accumulated primarily in intracellular vesicles (Figure1).Figure 1
ATP9A localizes to intracellular vesicles and the plasma membrane. (a) To investigate ATP9A localization, HEK293 cells overexpressing ATP9A-RFP were detected using confocal microscopy. (b) HEK293 cells overexpressing ATP9A-RFP were labeled with general cell membrane dye PKH67-green.
(a)(b)As ATP9A was detected at the plasma membrane and intracellular vesicles, reduced expression of ATP9A could affect ectosome or exosome release. Figure2 demonstrates that the number of EVs emitted in ATP9A-KO (ATP9A knockout cells) was significantly greater than the number of EVs released by the ATP9A-OV and plv-NC groups. The ATP9A-OV group released the fewest EVs. These findings suggest that the observed increase in the number of EVs from ATP9A knockout cells is mainly caused by elevated secretion of exosomes.Figure 2
The total number of EVs is significantly greater in ATP9A knockdown cells. (a) EV secretion was evaluated in ATP9A knockdown (ATP9A-KO), ATP9A overexpression (ATP9A-OV), and plv-NC cells. (b) Exosome preparation was positive for exosome markers CD9, TSG101, and Alix and negative for ER marker calnexin. Tests were repeated in triplicate.∗P<0.05.
(a)(b)Lipidomics were performed for plv-NC, ATP9A-OV, and ATP9A-KO cells to better characterize the effects of ATP9A on exosome biosynthesis. Principal component analysis (PCA) showed that in the positive mode, theR2X and Q2 between the ATP9A-KO and plv-NC groups were 0.659 and -0.00879, respectively. Between the ATP9A-OV and plv-NC groups, the R2X and Q2 were 0.79 and 0.477, respectively. Finally, between the ATP9A-KO and ATP9A-OV groups, the R2X and Q2 values were 0.689 and 0.0479, respectively (Figure 3). As the R2X values all exceeded 0.4, the models were considered reliable. The PCA score plots obtained by comparing the three groups revealed that three clusters were separated in the positive mode by the first two components.Figure 3

(a)(b)(c)Figure4 presents the PLS-DA score plots for the comparison of the three groups. This clearly shows separation in positive mode. The respective R2X, R2Y, and Q2 between the ATP9A-KO and plv-NC groups were 0.615, 0.983, and 0.851. Similarly, the respective R2X, R2Y, and Q2 values between the ATP9A-OV and plv-NC groups were 0.783, 0.99, and 0.951. Finally, the same respective values between the ATP9A-KO and ATP9A-OV groups were 0.539, 0.98, and 0.676.Figure 4

(a)(b)(c)Figure5 presents the amount of different lipids as a percentage of the total. The percentage of Cer was significantly greater in the plv-NC group than in the ATP9A-OV and ATP9A-KO groups (P<0.05). The level of sphingosine (So) was greatest in the plv-NC group (P<0.05).Figure 5
Percentage of all classes of lipids detected in the plv-NC, ATP9A-OV, and ATP9A-KO groups. Ceramides, lysophosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, sphingomyelin, and triglycerides were the most common types of lipids. The percentage of ceramides (Cer), diacylglycerol (DG), lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), lysophosphatidylmethanol (LPMe), monoglyceride (MG), phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), sphingomyelin (SM), sphingoshine (So), and triglyceride (TG) are shown.In total, there was a difference of 7 lipid classes, comprising 49 significantly different lipid metabolites, between the ATP9A-KO and plv-NC groups. This difference increased to 8 lipid classes and 137 significantly different lipid metabolites between the ATP9A-OV and plv-NC groups. The ATP9A-KO and ATP9A-OV groups differed by 5 lipid classes and 10 significantly different lipid metabolites (Table1). The detailed differences in lipid metabolites between the plv-NC, ATP9A-KO, and ATP9A-OV groups in the positive mode are shown in Tables 2, 3, and 4. Table 5 shows the detailed differences in lipid metabolites between the ATP9A-OV and plv-NC groups in negative mode.Table 1

## 4. Discussion

ATP9A, a trafficking protein, plays a key role in the initiation of vesicle biogenesis [7, 23]. In this study, we found that the release of EVs from HEK293 cells was modulated by P4-ATPase ATP9A. The percentage of ceramides and sphingosine was significantly greater in the normal control cells than in the ATP9A overexpression and ATP9A knockout cells. The subcellular localization of mammalian P4-ATPases was observed using fluorescently labeled phospholipids to visualize the transport of phospholipids into cells. ATP9A was detected in the plasma membrane and intracellular compartments. This suggests that the presence of ATP9A in the plasma membrane is important for the purpose of assisting in the recycling of plasma membrane proteins through endocytosis [23]. EV release was increased in cell lines when ATP9A was knocked out; this implies that ATP9A plays an inhibitory role in EV release.Many biological processes, such as angiogenesis, blood clotting, and immune response, are modulated by proteins, DNA, miRNA, and mRNAs, which could be controlled via EV-instigated intercellular communication. In this study, we demonstrated that exosome secretion was inhibited by ATP9A and this could be achieved through glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and transferrin receptor, as they are recycled to the plasma membrane through ATP9A endocytic recycling [17]. The knockdown expression of ATP9A in human hepatoma cells shows that the elevated release of EVs is independent of the activation of caspase-3 [23]. The quantity of EVs was significantly reduced in ATP9A knockdown cells in which exosome release had been pharmacologically blocked [23].It is also possible that the elevated secretion of EVs is secondary to disrupting other key processes. ATP9A deficiency may be associated with cell death, proliferation, and survival pathways. Indeed, in HepG2 cells in which ATP9A was minimal, the cells underwent massive cell death approximately two weeks after ATP9A had been exhausted. As mentioned previously, ATP9A is a member of subclass 2 in P4-ATPases [11]; Neo1 (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and TAT-5 (C. elegans) are orthologs of ATP9A. While it is recognized that P4-ATPase deficiency can result in lethal consequences, it is not yet known what molecular mechanisms are responsible for this phenomenon [24]. Hela cells containing CRISPR-mediated knockout of ATP9A did not die; however, it is noted that data for long-term culture were omitted [17]. This suggests that some cell types can withstand ATP9A depletion; the pathway in which the protein is involved may determine the outcome.P4-ATPases are important to many plasma and intracellular membrane-associated processes. One of these enzymes’ primary functions is to institute and maintain a state of phospholipid asymmetry of cell membranes [7]. Increased exposure of PS in the exoplasmic leaflet of ATP9A-depleted HepG2 cells resulted in partial loss of plasma membrane asymmetry [23]. In S. cerevisiae, the asymmetry of the plasma membrane is lost as PE and PS become exposed as a consequence of NEO1 deficiency [24]. Similarly, the exposure of PE in the exoplasmic leaflet of C. elegans increases with TAT-5 deficiency; however, no external PS was detected [16]. In this study, ATP9A-depleted HEK293 cells did not exhibit an increase in PS, but ceramides (Cer) and sphingosine were decreased in cells in which ATP9A was overexpressed or knocked out. A number of pathologies are associated with dysregulated sphingolipid metabolism; these include cancer, cardiovascular disease, hepatic steatosis, metabolic disorders, neurological disease, and type 2 diabetes [25, 26]. Exosomes were exchanged between the tumor cells and other tissues; however, few studies have examined the functional roles of these exosomal lipids [27]. Cer is enriched in the exosomes, and it is also an important lipid in exosomal formation. As the center in the sphingolipid metabolism, Cer is predominantly produced via acid sphingomyelinase-mediated hydrolysis of sphingomyelin and then metabolized to sphingosine by acid ceramidase [28]. Cosker and Segal suggested that the exosomal lipids can transmit “mobile rafts” that can activate cell signaling pathways in oncogenesis and metastasis [29]. Cer can modulate the roles of these mobile rafts and their effects on the signaling pathways [29]. Sphingosine may increase the activation of the TRPML1 channel in the presence of ML-SA1. ATP9A may regulate sphingosine production and, thus, decrease TRPML1 channel activity [30]. It was previously postulated that the translocation undertaken by P4-ATPases was selective, favoring glycerophospholipids and excluding sphingolipids. Thus, the molecular relationship between ATP9A and ceramides and sphingosine are mysterious [31].
