Human multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells cytokine priming promotes RAB27B-regulated secretion of small extracellular vesicles with immunomodulatory cargo.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The paracrine effects of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are mediated by their secretome composed by soluble factors (i.e., cytokines, growth factors, hormones) and extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs promote intercellular communication, and the EV cargoes [e.g., proteins, soluble factors, microRNAs (miRNAs), messenger RNA (mRNA), DNA] reflect the molecular and functional characteristics of their parental cells. MSC-derived EVs (MSC-EVs) are currently evaluated as subcellular therapeutics. A key function of the MSC secretome is its ability to promote immune tolerance (i.e., immunopotency), a property that is enhanced by priming approaches (e.g., cytokines, hypoxia, chemicals) and inversely correlates with the age of the MSC donors. We evaluated mechanisms underlying MSC vesiculation and the effects of inflammation and aging on this process.

Methods

We evaluated the effects of interferon gamma (IFN-?) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) on human adipose-derived MSC: (a) vesiculation (custom RT² Profiler PCR Array), (b) EV profiles (Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis and Nanoparticle Flow Cytometry), (c) EV cargo (proteomic analysis and Western blot analysis), and (d) immunopotency (standard MSC:CD4 T cell proliferation inhibition assay). We confirmed the role of RAB27B on MSC vesiculation (RAB27B siRNA) and assessed its differential contribution to vesiculation in adult and pediatric MSCs (qPCR).

Results

Cytokine priming upregulated RAB27B in adipose-derived MSCs increasing their secretion of exosome-like small EVs (sEVs; ConclusionsCytokine priming is a useful strategy to harvest anti-inflammatory MSC-sEVs for clinical applications. Of relevance, donor age should be considered in the selection of MSC-sEVs for clinical applications.

Project description:The onset and progression of human inflammatory joint diseases are strongly associated with the activation of resident synovium/infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) pro-inflammatory and pain-transmitting signaling. We recently reported that intra-articularly injected IFP-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (IFP-MSC) acquire a potent immunomodulatory phenotype and actively degrade substance P (SP) via neutral endopeptidase CD10 (neprilysin). Our hypothesis is that IFP-MSC robust immunomodulatory therapeutic effects are largely exerted via their CD10-bound small extracellular vesicles (IFP-MSC sEVs) by attenuating synoviocyte pro-inflammatory activation and articular cartilage degradation. Herein, IFP-MSC sEVs were isolated from CD10High- and CD10Low-expressing IFP-MSC cultures and their sEV miRNA cargo was assessed using multiplex methods. Functionally, we interrogated the effect of CD10High and CD10Low sEVs on stimulated by inflammatory/fibrotic cues synoviocyte monocultures and cocultures with IFP-MSC-derived chondropellets. Finally, CD10High sEVs were tested in vivo for their therapeutic capacity in an animal model of acute synovitis/fat pad fibrosis. Our results showed that CD10High and CD10Low sEVs possess distinct miRNA profiles. Reactome analysis of miRNAs highly present in sEVs showed their involvement in the regulation of six gene groups, particularly those involving the immune system. Stimulated synoviocytes exposed to IFP-MSC sEVs demonstrated significantly reduced proliferation and altered inflammation-related molecular profiles compared to control stimulated synoviocytes. Importantly, CD10High sEV treatment of stimulated chondropellets/synoviocyte cocultures indicated significant chondroprotective effects. Therapeutically, CD10High sEV treatment resulted in robust chondroprotective effects by retaining articular cartilage structure/composition and PRG4 (lubricin)-expressing cartilage cells in the animal model of acute synovitis/IFP fibrosis. Our study suggests that CD10High sEVs possess immunomodulatory miRNA attributes with strong chondroprotective/anabolic effects for articular cartilage in vivo. The results could serve as a foundation for sEV-based therapeutics for the resolution of detrimental aspects of immune-mediated inflammatory joint changes associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis (OA).
