Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Exosomal MicroRNA-126-3p Inhibits Pancreatic Cancer Development by Targeting ADAM9.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer is a lethal malignancy with relatively few effective therapies. Recent investigations have highlighted the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) as crucial regulators in various tumor processes including tumor progression. Hence the current study aimed to investigate the role of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosomal microRNA-126-3p (miR-126-3p) in pancreatic cancer. Initially, miRNA candidates and related genes associated with pancreatic cancer were screened. PANC-1 cells were transfected with miR-126-3p or silenced a disintegrin and a metalloproteinase-9 (ADAM9) to examine their regulatory roles in pancreatic cancer cells. Additionally, exosomes derived from BMSCs were isolated and co-cultured with pancreatic cancer cells to elucidate the effects of exosomes in pancreatic cancer. Furthermore, the effects of overexpressed miR-126-3p derived from BMSCs exosomes on proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis, tumor growth, and metastasis of pancreatic cancer cells were analyzed in connection with lentiviral packaged miR-126-3p in vivo. Restored miR-126-3p was observed to suppress pancreatic cancer through downregulating ADAM9. Notably, overexpressed miR-126-3p derived from BMSCs exosomes inhibited the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of pancreatic cancer cells, and promoted their apoptosis both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, the key findings of the study indicated that overexpressed miR-126-3p derived from BMSCs exosomes inhibited the development of pancreatic cancer through the downregulation of ADAM9, highlighting the potential of miR-126-3p as a novel biomarker for pancreatic cancer treatment.

Project description:BackgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant clonal disease of hematopoietic stem- and progenitor-cell origin. AML features massive proliferation of abnormal blasts and leukemia cells in the bone marrow and the inhibition of normal hematopoiesis at onset. Exosomes containing proteins or nucleic acids are secreted by cells; they participate in intercellular communication and serve as key modulators of hematopoiesis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on the regulation of AML and the underlying mechanisms mediated by microRNA (miRNA).MethodsDysregulated miR-7-5p in AML patients was identified using qRT-PCR and its clinical significance was explored. Bioinformatic analysis revealed the target gene OSBPL11 that could be regulated by miR-7-5p. The findings were validated using a dual-luciferase reporter assay and western blotting. The functional genes of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway were identified, and the functional significance of miR-7-5p in AML cells was determined using a functional recovery assay. AML cells were co-cultured with exosomes originating from BMSCs overexpressing miR-7-5p to determine cell-cell regulation by Exo-miR-7-5p, as well as in vitro and in vivo functional validation via gain- and loss-of-function methods.ResultsExpression of miR-7-5p was decreased in AML patients and cells. Overexpression of miR-7-5p curbed cellular proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Overexpression of OSBPL11 reversed the tumorigenic properties of miR-7-5p in AML cells in vitro. Exo-miR-7-5p derived from BMSCs induced formation of AML cells prone to apoptosis and a low survival rate, with OSBPL11 expression inhibited through the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Exo-miR-7-5p derived from BMSCs exhibited tumor homing effects in vitro and in vivo, and inhibited AML development.ConclusionsExo-miR-7-5p derived from BMSCs negatively regulates OSBPL11 by suppressing the phosphorylation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting AML proliferation and promoting apoptosis. The data will inform the development of AML therapies based on BMSC-derived exosomes.
