IPSC-NSCs-Derived Exosomal let-7b-5p Improves Motor Function After Spinal Cord Injury by Modulating Microglial/Macrophage Pyroptosis

ABSTRACT: Background: Following spinal cord injury (SCI), the inflammatory storm initiated by microglia/macrophages poses a significant impediment to the recovery process. Exosomes play a crucial role in the transport of miRNAs, facilitating essential cellular communication through the transfer of genetic material. However, the miRNAs from iPSC-NSCs-Exos and their potential mechanisms leading to repair after SCI remain unclear. This study aims to explore the role of iPSC-NSCs-Exos in microglia/macrophage pyroptosis and reveal their potential mechanisms. Methods: iPSC-NSCs-Exos were characterized and identified using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and Western blot. A mouse SCI model and a series of in vivo and in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the therapeutic effects of iPSC-NSCs-Exos. Subsequently, miRNA microarray analysis and rescue experiments were performed to confirm the role of miRNAs in iPSC-NSCs-Exos in SCI. Mechanistic studies were carried out using Western blot, luciferase activity assays, and RNA-ChIP. Results: Our findings revealed that iPSC-NSCs-derived exosomes inhibited microglia/macrophage pyroptosis at 7 days post-SCI, maintaining myelin integrity and promoting axonal growth, ultimately improving mice motor function. The miRNA microarray showed let-7b-5p to be highly enriched in iPSC-NSCs-Exos, and LRIG3 was identified as the target gene of let-7b-5p. Through a series of rescue experiments, we uncovered the connection between iPSC-NSCs and microglia/macrophages, revealing a novel target for treating SCI. Conclusion: In conclusion, we discovered that iPSC-NSCs-derived exosomes can package and deliver let-7b-5p, regulating the expression of LRIG3 to ameliorate microglia/macrophage pyroptosis and enhance motor function in mice after SCI. This highlights the potential of combined therapy with iPSC-NSCs-Exos and let-7b-5p in promoting functional recovery and limiting inflammation following SCI.

Project description:Rationale：Poor peri-implant osseointegration of dental implants in patients with type II diabetes has become a major clinical challenge in recent years. MSC (Mesenchymal stem cell)-derived exosomes may play an important role in peri-implant osseointegration, but the mechanism remains unclear. Enhancing the therapeutic effect of MSC-derived exosomes and exploring the potential mechanism can help provide a new therapeutic strategy to improve the clinical outcome of dental implant restorations in patients with type II diabetes. Methods：The exosomes derived from hypoxia (Hypo-exos) or normoxia (Nor-exos) preconditioned bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were co-cultured with BMSCs and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The effect of exosomes on BMSCs cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay and EdU assay, and the effect on angiogenesis ability of HUVECs was detected by wound healing assay, transwell migration assay, tube formation assay, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot. A diabetic rat dental implant model was also established and the effect of exosomes on implant osseointegration was evaluated through micro-CT scanning and histological analysis. The differentially expressed miRNAs between Hypo-exos and Nor-exos were identified by high-throughput miRNA sequencing. Subsequently, the target genes and their roles in regulating angiogenesis were predicted and analyzed by bioinformatics analysis and dual luciferase reporter assay. Results：In vitro experiments indicated that hypoxia preconditioning could elevate exosome production and promote cell proliferation of BMSCs and angiogenesis of HUVECs. Moreover, Hypo-exos promoted peri-implant osteogenesis in rats with diabetes. Further investigation revealed the vital involvement of the miR-106b-5p/HIF-1α axis in promoting peri-implant osseointegration. Conclusion: Exosomes derived from hypoxia-preconditioned BMSCs could improve the peri-implant osseointegration in rats with diabetes by promoting cell proliferation and angiogenesis, and the miR-106b-5p/ HIF-1α axis could be the underlying mechanism.
