Exosomal miR-365a-5p derived from HUC-MSCs regulates osteogenesis in GIONFH through the Hippo signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: The pathogenesis of glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (GIONFH) is still disputed, and abnormal bone metabolism caused by GCs may be an important factor. In vitro, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) staining were used to evaluate cellular proliferation, and western blotting was used to investigate osteogenesis. In vivo, we used micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), H&E staining, Masson staining, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis to evaluate the impact of exosomes. In addition, the mechanism by which exosomes regulate osteogenesis through the miR-365a-5p/Hippo signaling pathway was investigated using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), luciferase reporter assays, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and western blotting. The results of western blotting verified that the relevant genes in osteogenesis, including BMP2, Sp7, and Runx2, were upregulated. RNA-seq and qPCR of the exosome and Dex-treated exosome groups showed that miR-365a-5p was upregulated in the exosome group. Furthermore, we verified that miR-365a-5p promoted osteogenesis by targeting SAV1. Additional in vivo experiments revealed that exosomes prevented GIONFH in a rat model, as shown by micro-CT scanning and histological and IHC analysis. We concluded that exosomal miR-365a-5p was effective in promoting osteogenesis and preventing the development of GIONFH via activation of the Hippo signaling pathway in rats.

Project description:BackgroundChronic inflammatory pain significantly reduces the quality of life and lacks effective interventions. In recent years, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (huc-MSCs)-derived exosomes have been used to relieve neuropathic pain and other inflammatory diseases as a promising cell-free therapeutic strategy. However, the therapeutic value of huc-MSCs-derived exosomes in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced inflammatory pain remains to be confirmed. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic effect and related mechanisms of huc-MSCs-derived exosomes in a chronic inflammatory pain model.MethodsC57BL/6J male mice were used to establish a CFA-induced inflammatory pain model, and huc-MSCs-derived exosomes were intrathecally injected for 4 consecutive days. BV2 microglia cells were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) plus adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to investigate the effect of huc-MSCs-derived exosomes on pyroptosis and autophagy. Bioinformatic analysis and rescue experiments were used to demonstrate the role of miR-146a-5p/ TRAF6 in regulating pyroptosis and autophagy. Western blotting, RT-qPCR, small interfering RNA and Yo-Pro-1 dye staining were performed to investigate the related mechanisms.ResultsHuc-MSCs-derived exosomes alleviated mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia in CFA-induced inflammatory pain. Furthermore, huc-MSCs-derived exosomes attenuated neuroinflammation by increasing the expression of autophagy-related proteins (LC3-II and beclin1) and inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes in the spinal cord dorsal horn. In vitro, NLRP3 inflammasome components (NLRP3, caspase1-p20, ASC) and gasdermin D (GSDMD-F, GSDMD-N) were inhibited in BV2 cells pretreated with huc-MSCs-derived exosomes. Western blot and Yo-Pro-1 dye staining demonstrated that 3-MA, an autophagy inhibitor, weakened the protective effect of huc-MSCs-derived exosomes on BV2 cell pyroptosis. Importantly, huc-MSCs-derived exosomes transfected with miR-146a-5p mimic promoted autophagy and inhibited BV2 cell pyroptosis. TRAF6, as a target gene of miR-146a-5p, was knocked down via small-interfering RNA, which increased pyroptosis and inhibited autophagy.ConclusionHuc-MSCs-derived exosomes attenuated inflammatory pain via miR-146a-5p/TRAF6, which increased the level of autophagy and inhibited pyroptosis.

Project description:Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) plays a crucial role in the pathophysiological process associated with diabetes-related complications. The effect of high glucose levels on macrophage-derived exosomal MALAT1 is unknown. Therefore, we investigated the molecular regulatory mechanisms controlling exosomal MALAT1 in macrophages under high glucose treatment and the therapeutic target of macrophage-derived exosomal MALAT1 using a balloon injury model of vascular disease in diabetic rats. High glucose (25 mM) significantly increased MALAT1 expression in macrophage-derived exosomes. MALAT1 suppressed miR-150-5p expression in macrophage-derived exosomes under high-glucose conditions. Silencing MALAT1 using MALAT1 siRNA significantly reversed miR-150-5p expression induced by macrophage-derived exosomes. Macrophage-derived exosomes under high-glucose treatment significantly increased resistin expression in macrophages. Silencing MALAT1 and overexpression of miR-150-5p significantly decreased resistin expression induced by macrophage-derived exosomes. Overexpression of miR-150-5p significantly decreased resistin luciferase activity induced by macrophage-derived exosomes. Macrophage-derived exosome significantly decreased glucose uptake in macrophages and silencing MALAT1, resistin or overexpression of miR-150-5p significantly reversed glucose uptake. Balloon injury to the carotid artery significantly increased MALAT1 and resistin expression and significantly decreased miR-150-5p expression in arterial tissue. Silencing MALAT1 significantly reversed miR-150-5p expression in arterial tissue after balloon injury. Silencing MALAT1 or overexpression of miR-150-5p significantly reduced resistin expression after balloon injury. In conclusion, high glucose up-regulates MALAT1 to suppress miR-150-5p expression and counteracts the inhibitory effect of miR-150-5p on resistin expression in macrophages to promote vascular disease. Macrophage-derived exosomes containing MALAT1 may serve as a novel cell-free approach for the treatment of vascular disease in diabetes mellitus.
