MiR-200b in heme oxygenase-1-modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes alleviates inflammatory injury of intestinal epithelial cells by targeting high mobility group box 3.

ABSTRACT: Heme Oxygen-1 (HO-1)-modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) are effective to protect and repair transplanted small bowel and intestinal epithelial cells (IECs); however, the mechanism and the role of HO-1/BMMSCs-derived exosomes is unclear. In the present study, we aimed to verify that exosomes from a HO-1/BMMSCs and IEC-6 cells (IEC-6s) co-culture system could reduce the apoptosis of IEC-6s and decrease the expression of the tight junction protein, zona occludens 1, in the inflammatory environment. Using mass spectrometry, we revealed that high mobility group box 3 (HMGB3) and phosphorylated c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), under the influence of differentially abundant proteins identified through proteomic analysis, play critical roles in the mechanism. Further studies indicated that microRNA miR-200b, which was upregulated in exosomes derived from the co-culture of HO-1/BMMSCs and IEC-6s, exerted its role by targeting the 3' untranslated region of Hmgb3 in this biological process. Functional experiments confirmed that miR-200b overexpression could reduce the inflammatory injury of IEC-6s, while intracellular miR-200b knockdown could significantly block the protective effect of HO-1/BMMSCs exosomes on the inflammatory injury of IEC-6s. In addition, the level of miR-200b in cells and exosomes derived from HO-1/BMMSCs stimulated by tumor necrosis factor alpha was significantly upregulated. In a rat small bowel transplantation model of allograft rejection treated with HO-1/BMMSCs, we confirmed that the level of miR-200b in the transplanted small bowel tissue was increased significantly, while the level of HMGB3/JNK was downregulated significantly. In conclusion, we identified that exosomes derived from HO-1/BMMSCs play an important role in alleviating the inflammatory injury of IECs. The mechanism is related to miR-200b targeting the abnormally increased expression of the Hmgb3 gene in IECs induced by inflammatory injury. The reduced level of HMGB3 then decreases the inflammatory injury.

Project description:Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable result of liver surgery. Steatotic livers are extremely sensitive to IRI and have worse tolerance. Ferroptosis is considered to be one of the main factors of organ IRI. This study is aimed at exploring the role of ferroptosis in the effect of heme oxygenase-1-modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (HO-1/BMMSCs) on steatotic liver IRI and its mechanism. An IRI model of a steatotic liver and a hypoxia reoxygenation (HR) model of steatotic hepatocytes (SHPs) were established. Rat BMMSCs were extracted and transfected with the Ho1 gene to establish HO-1/BMMSCs, and their exosomes were extracted by ultracentrifugation. Ireb2 was knocked down to verify its role in ferroptosis and cell injury in SHP-HR. Public database screening combined with quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR identified microRNAs (miRNAs) targeting Ireb2 in HO-1/BMMSCs exosomes. miR-29a-3p mimic and inhibitor were used for functional verification experiments. Liver function, histopathology, terminal deoxynulceotidyl transferase nick-end-labeling staining, cell viability, mitochondrial membrane potential, and cell death were measured to evaluate liver tissue and hepatocyte injury. Ferroptosis was assessed by detecting the levels of IREB2, Fe2+, malondialdehyde, glutathione, lipid reactive oxygen species, glutathione peroxidase 4, prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 mRNA, and mitochondrial morphology. The results revealed that HO-1/BMMSCs improved liver tissue and hepatocyte injury and suppressed ferroptosis in vivo and in vitro. The expression of IREB2 was increased in steatotic liver IRI and SHP-HR. Knocking down Ireb2 reduced the level of Fe2+ and inhibited ferroptosis. HO-1/BMMSC exosomes reduced the expression of IREB2 and inhibited ferroptosis and cell damage. Furthermore, we confirmed high levels of miR-29a-3p in HO-1/BMMSCs exosomes. Overexpression of miR-29a-3p downregulated the expression of Ireb2 and inhibited ferroptosis. Downregulation of miR-29a-3p blocked the protective effect of HO-1/BMMSC exosomes on SHP-HR cell injury. In conclusion, ferroptosis plays an important role in HO-1/BMMSC-mediated alleviation of steatotic liver IRI. HO-1/BMMSCs could suppress ferroptosis by targeting Ireb2 via the exosomal transfer of miR-29a-3p.

Project description:BackgroundSteatotic livers tolerate ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) poorly, increasing the risk of organ dysfunction. Ferroptosis is considered the initiating factor of organ IRI. Heme oxygenase oxygen-1 (HO-1)-modified bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) (HO-1/BMMSCs) can reduce hepatic IRI; however, the role of ferroptosis in IRI of steatotic grafts and the effect of HO-1/BMMSCs-derived exosomes (HM-exos) on ferroptosis remain unknown.MethodsA model of rat liver transplantation (LT) with a severe steatotic donor liver and a model of hypoxia and reoxygenation (H/R) of steatotic hepatocytes were established. Exosomes were obtained by differential centrifugation, and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in liver after HM-exo treatment were detected using RNA sequencing. The expression of ferroptosis markers was analyzed. microRNA (miRNA) sequencing was used to analyze the miRNA profiles in HM-exos.ResultsWe verified the effect of a candidate miRNA on ferroptosis of H/R treated hepatocytes, and observed the effect of exosomes knockout of the candidate miRNA on hepatocytes ferroptosis. In vitro, HM-exo treatment reduced the IRI in steatotic grafts, and enrichment analysis of DEGs suggested that HM-exos were involved in the regulation of the ferroptosis pathway. In vitro, inhibition of ferroptosis by HM-exos reduced hepatocyte injury. HM-exos contained more abundant miR-124-3p, which reduced ferroptosis of H/R-treated cells by inhibiting prostate six transmembrane epithelial antigen 3 (STEAP3), while overexpression of Steap3 reversed the effect of mir-124-3p. In addition, HM-exos from cell knocked out for miR-124-3p showed a weakened inhibitory effect on ferroptosis. Similarly, HM-exo treatment increased the content of miR-124-3p in grafts, while decreasing the level of STEAP3 and reducing the degree of hepatic ferroptosis.ConclusionFerroptosis is involved in the IRI during LT with a severe steatotic donor liver. miR-124-3p in HM-exos downregulates Steap3 expression to inhibit ferroptosis, thereby attenuating graft IRI, which might be a promising strategy to treat IRI in steatotic grafts.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS:Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and its metabolic by-product, carbon monoxide (CO), protect against intestinal inflammation in experimental models of colitis, but little is known about their intestinal immune mechanisms. We investigated the interactions among CO, HO-1, and the enteric microbiota in mice and zebrafish. METHODS:Germ-free, wild-type, and interleukin (Il)10(-/-) mice and germ-free zebrafish embryos were colonized with specific pathogen-free (SPF) microbiota. Germ-free or SPF-raised wild-type and Il10(-/-) mice were given intraperitoneal injections of cobalt(III) protoporphyrin IX chloride (CoPP), which up-regulates HO-1, the CO-releasing molecule Alfama-186, or saline (control). Colitis was induced in wild-type mice housed in SPF conditions by infection with Salmonella typhimurium. RESULTS:In colons of germ-free, wild-type mice, SPF microbiota induced production of HO-1 via activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2-, IL-10-, and Toll-like receptor-dependent pathways; similar observations were made in zebrafish. SPF microbiota did not induce HO-1 in colons of germ-free Il10(-/-) mice. Administration of CoPP to Il10(-/-) mice before transition from germ-free to SPF conditions reduced their development of colitis. In Il10(-/-) mice, CO and CoPP reduced levels of enteric bacterial genomic DNA in mesenteric lymph nodes. In mice with S typhimurium-induced enterocolitis, CoPP reduced the numbers of live S typhimurium recovered from the lamina propria, mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen, and liver. Knockdown of HO-1 in mouse macrophages impaired their bactericidal activity against E coli, E faecalis, and S typhimurium, whereas exposure to CO or overexpression of HO-1 increased their bactericidal activity. HO-1 induction and CO increased acidification of phagolysosomes. CONCLUSIONS:Colonic HO-1 prevents colonic inflammation in mice. HO-1 is induced by the enteric microbiota and its homeostatic function is mediated, in part, by promoting bactericidal activities of macrophages.
