Validation of JUP as a potential biomarker for diabetic retinopathy. JUP protein levels in retinal EVs (A) and urinary EVs (B) from Non-diabetic and Diabetic patients, obtained from the proteomic datasets. (C) JUP, CD63, CD81 and Pan-Actin levels in urinary EVs pooled from Non-DR, DR and Non-Diabetic patients. Each lane contains 30ug of EV proteins obtained from a pool of three independent samples. A network diagram representing protein-protein interaction showing (D) proteins that are involved in the organization and disruption of anchoring junction and (E) proteins involved in the development of vasculature. (F) Prediction analysis to determine protein subcellular localization. Pathway (G) and biological process (H) enrichment analysis of shared proteins between DR.EVs and DR.UrEVs.
