Melanoma-Derived Exosomal miR-125b-5p Educates Tumor Associated Macrophages (TAMs) by Targeting Lysosomal Acid Lipase A (LIPA).

ABSTRACT: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are the most abundant immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, promoting tumor initiation, growth, progression, metastasis, and immune evasion. Recently it was shown that cancer cell-derived exosomes induce a tumor-promoting phenotype in TAMs. Exosome-loaded proteins, DNA, and RNAs may contribute to the macrophage reprogramming. However, the exact mediators and mechanisms, particularly in melanoma, are not known. In this study we examined the effects of cutaneous melanoma-derived exosomes on macrophage function and the underlying mechanisms. First, we showed that exposure to melanoma exosomes induces a tumor-promoting TAM phenotype in macrophages. Sequencing revealed enrichment for several miRNAs including miR-125b-5p in cutaneous melanoma exosomes. We showed that miR-125b-5p is delivered to macrophages by melanoma exosomes and partially induces the observed tumor-promoting TAM phenotype. Finally, we showed that miR-125b-5p targets the lysosomal acid lipase A (LIPA) in macrophages, which in turn contributes to their phenotype switch and promotes macrophage survival. Thus, our data show for the first time that miR-125b-5p transferred by cutaneous melanoma-derived exosomes induces a tumor-promoting TAM phenotype in macrophages.

Project description:Introduction Ischemic diseases caused by diabetes continue to pose a major health challenge and effective treatments are in high demand. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived exosomes have aroused broad attention as a cell-free treatment for ischemic diseases. However, the efficacy of exosomes from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC-Exos) in treating diabetic lower limb ischemic injury remains unclear. Methods Exosomes were isolated from ADSCs culture supernatants by differential ultracentrifugation and their effect on C2C12 cells and HUVECs was assessed by EdU, Transwell, and in vitro tube formation assays separately. The recovery of limb function after ADSC-Exos treatment was evaluated by Laser-Doppler perfusion imaging, limb function score, and histological analysis. Subsequently, miRNA sequencing and rescue experiments were performed to figure out the responsible miRNA for the protective role of ADSC-Exos on diabetic hindlimb ischemic injury. Finally, the direct target of miRNA in C2C12 cells was confirmed by bioinformatic analysis and dual-luciferase report gene assay. Results ADSC-Exos have the potential to promote proliferation and migration of C2C12 cells and to promote HUVECs angiogenesis. In vivo experiments have shown that ADSC-Exos can protect ischemic skeletal muscle, promote the repair of muscle injury, and accelerate vascular regeneration. Combined with bioinformatics analysis, miR-125b-5p may be a key molecule in this process. Transfer of miR-125b-5p into C2C12 cells was able to promote cell proliferation and migration by suppressing ACER2 overexpression. Conclusion The findings revealed that miR-125b-5p derived from ADSC-Exos may play a critical role in ischemic muscle reparation by targeting ACER2. In conclusion, our study may provide new insights into the potential of ADSC-Exos as a treatment option for diabetic lower limb ischemia.

Highlights ADSC-Exos have the potential to facilitate muscle repair in the context of diabetes. miR-125b-5p derived from ADSC-Exos played a crucial role in muscle injury. The primary biological function of miR-125b-5p is achieved by targeting ACER2. The AMPK signaling pathway may play a significant role in diabetic hindlimb ischemia.
