While the crosstalk between TvEVs and human cells has led to insight into host:parasite interactions, roles for TvEVs in infection have largely been one-sided, with little known about the effect of TvEV uptake by\n                    <jats:italic>T. vaginalis<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Approximately 11% of infections are found to be coinfections of multiple\n                    <jats:italic>T. vaginalis<\/jats:italic>\n                    strains. Clinical isolates often differ in their adherence to and cytolysis of host cells, underscoring the importance of understanding the effects of TvEV uptake within the parasite population. To address this question, our lab tested the ability of a less adherent strain of\n                    <jats:italic>T. vaginalis<\/jats:italic>\n                    , G3, to take up fluorescently labeled TvEVs derived from both itself (G3-EVs) and TvEVs from a more adherent strain of the parasite (B7RC2-EVs). Here, we showed that TvEVs generated from the more adherent strain are internalized more efficiently compared to the less adherent strain. Additionally, preincubation of G3 parasites with B7RC2-EVs increases parasite aggregation and adherence to host cells. Transcriptomics revealed that TvEVs up-regulate expression of predicted parasite membrane proteins and identified an adherence factor, heteropolysaccharide binding protein (HPB2). Finally, using comparative proteomics and superresolution microscopy, we demonstrated direct transfer of an adherence factor, cadherin-like protein, from TvEVs to the recipient parasite\u2019s surface. This work identifies TvEVs as a mediator of parasite:parasite communication that may impact pathogenesis during mixed infections.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.2401159121","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,12]],"date-time":"2024-06-12T12:46:56Z","timestamp":1718196416000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1073\/pnas.cm10313","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["<i>Trichomonas vaginalis<\/i>\n                    extracellular vesicles up-regulate and directly transfer adherence factors promoting host cell colonization"],"prefix":"10.1073","volume":"121","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7260-3159","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joshua A.","family":"Kochanowsky","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4093-2809","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Portia M.","family":"Mira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Samira","family":"Elikaee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katherine","family":"Muratore","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anand Kumar","family":"Rai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Angelica M.","family":"Riestra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095"},{"name":"Department of Biology, San Diego State University, San Diego, CA 92182"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patricia J.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"341","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/cells8070727"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrmicro.2016.110"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cell.2013.04.029"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.chom.2013.04.009"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41467-023-42103-x"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/IAI.72.7.4127-4137.2004"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/pmic.201600477"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/pim.12571"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.actatropica.2021.105915"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jri.2023.103957"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/IAI.00705-18"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.celrep.2022.111121"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00436-013-3655-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cell.2015.11.051"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.ppat.1006245"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/IAI.00349-20"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms24119559"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jprot.2014.02.012"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jev2.12317"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ncomms6488"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00436-015-4373-7"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_22_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13071-016-1845-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_23_2","first-page":"57514","article-title":"Isolation and characterization of extracellular vesicles from adult Schistosoma japonicum","volume":"135","author":"Liu J.","year":"2018","unstructured":"J.
