Project description:The graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) associated dry eye disease usually leads to refractory pain and visual impairment with limited treatments currently. Here we found exosome derived from mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC-exo) administered as eye drops significantly alleviates GVHD-associated dry eye disease in human and mouse models. To find out the essential elements during exosome treatment, we performed miRNA sequencing of exosomes derived from MSCs and L929 cells, and identified miR-204 in MSC-exo benefited the recovery of dry eye, which targeted IL-6/IL-6R/Stat3 signaling. Blockade of miR-204 abolished the therapeutic effect of MSC-exo while miR-204 overexpression from L929-exo markedly attenuates dry eye. Thus MSC-exo eye drops are efficacious in treating GVHD-associated dry eye and highlight miR-204 as a potential therapeutic agent.
