Figure 4.
Purine metabolites are enriched in exosomes isolated from the plasma of HNSCC patients compared to those isolated from normal donors (ND). (A) Total exosomal protein levels (μg/mL) in samples isolated from the plasma of patients with HNSCC or ND. (B) Comparison of purine metabolite levels in exosomes isolated from the plasma samples of HNSCC patients or ND. Values are presented in ng normalized to 100 μg of total exosomal protein. (C) Individual values of adenosine levels in exosomes isolated from HNSCC or ND. Values correspond with the data marked with the red frame presented in (B). All values represent means ± SEM.
