Secreted proteins enclosed in extracellular vesicles can act as intercellular messengers. The objective of this study was to elucidate the role of proteins secreted from synovial sarcoma cells in the regulatory network underlying pazopanib response. We performed a comprehensive analysis of expression of proteins secreted from four synovial sarcoma cell lines (SYO-1, HS-SYll, 1273/99, and YaFuSS) using mass spectroscopy. Comparison of up-regulated proteins in cells, extracellular vesicles-free conditioned media, and extracellular vesicles revealed significantly up-regulated Wnt in synovial sarcoma vesicles. Furthermore, we compared protein signatures of cells, conditioned media, and extracellular vesicles before and after pazopanib treatment. Interestingly, protein signatures of extracellular vesicles showed robust changes in Wnt signaling pathways in response to pazopanib. Our findings provide insight into the potential role of Wnt, a protein secreted from the extracellular vesicles of synovial sarcoma cells, making it a potential candidate for use in sarcoma diagnosis.
