Formation of extracellular vesicles (EVs) has emerged as a novel paradigm in cell‐to‐cell communication in health and disease. EVs are notably produced during cell death but it had remained unclear whether different modalities of regulated cell death (RCD) influence the biogenesis and composition of EVs. To this end, we performed a comparative analysis of steady‐state (ssEVs) and cell death‐associated EVs (cdEVs) following TNF‐induced necroptosis (necEVs), anti‐Fas‐induced apoptosis (apoEVs), and ML162‐induced ferroptosis (ferEVs) using the same cell line. For each RCD condition, we determined the biophysical and biochemical characteristics of the cell death‐associated EVs (cdEVs), the protein cargo, and the presence of methylated ribosomal RNA. We found that the global protein content of all cdEVs was increased compared to steady‐state EVs. Qualitatively, the isolated exosomal ssEVs and cdEVs, contained a largely overlapping protein cargo including some quantitative differences in particular proteins. All cdEVs were enriched for proteins involved in RNA splicing and nuclear export, and showed distinctive rRNA methylation patterns compared to ssEVs. Interestingly, necEVs and apoEVs, but strikingly not ferEVs, showed enrichment of proteins involved in ribosome biogenesis. Altogether, our work documents quantitative and qualitative differences between ssEVs and cdEVs.
