Exosomes Released from CaSR-Stimulated PMNs Reduce Ischaemia/Reperfusion Injury.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury caused by acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can initiate a strong inflammatory response. Polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) are the most important inflammatory cells. Our previous studies found that the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) regulates the proinflammatory effects of PMNs. However, the role and mechanism of CaSR-regulated PMNs in I/R injury remain uncertain. A rat AMI model was developed in this study and showed that the expression of CaSR on PMNs increased in AMI; however, the levels of Bcl-xl and SOD in myocardial tissue decreased, while Bax and MDA levels increased. Then, after coculture with CaSR-stimulated PMNs, the expression of Bcl-xl in cardiomyocytes significantly increased, Bax expression and the apoptotic rate decreased, and ROS production was significantly inhibited. At the same time, the cardiomyocyte damage caused by hypoxia-reoxygenation was reduced. Furthermore, we found that exosomes derived from PMNs could be taken up by cardiomyocytes. Additionally, the exosomes secreted by CaSR-stimulated PMNs had the same effect on cardiomyocytes as CaSR-stimulated PMNs, while the increased phosphorylation level of AKT in cardiomyocytes could be revered by AKT transduction pathway inhibitors. Subsequently, we identified the exosomes derived from CaSR-stimulated PMNs by second-generation sequencing technology, and increased expression of lncRNA ENSRNOT00000039868 was noted. The data show that this lncRNA can prevent the hypoxia-reoxygenation injury by upregulating the expression of PDGFD in cardiomyocytes. In vivo, exosomes from CaSR-stimulated PMNs played a significant role against AMI and reperfusion injury in myocardial tissue. Thus, we propose that exosomes derived from CaSR-stimulated PMNs can reduce I/R injury in AMI, and this effect may be related to the AKT signaling pathway.
