Proteomic analysis of urinary extracellular vesicles from high Gleason score prostate cancer Kazutoshi Fujita1, Hideaki Kume2, Kyosuke Matsuzaki1, Atsunari Kawashima1, Takeshi Ujike1, Akira Nagahara1, Motohide Uemura1, Yasushi Miyagawa1, Takeshi Tomonaga2 & Norio Nonomura1 Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are microvesicles secreted from various cell types. We aimed to discover a new biomarker for high Gleason score (GS) prostate cancer (PCa) in urinary EVs via quantitative proteomics. EVs were isolated from urine after massage from 18 men (negative biopsy [n = 6], GS 6 PCa [n = 6], or GS 8–9 PCa [n = 6]). EV proteins were labeled with iTRAQ and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. We identified 4710 proteins and quantified 3528 proteins in the urinary EVs. Eleven proteins increased in patients with PCa compared to those with negative biopsy (ratio >1.5, p-value
