MicroRNA-206 antagomiR‒enriched extracellular vesicles attenuate lung ischemia‒reperfusion injury through CXCL1 regulation in alveolar epithelial cells.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Our hypothesis is that the immunomodulatory capacities of mesenchymal stem cell‒derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) can be enhanced by specific microRNAs (miRNAs) to effectively attenuate post-transplant lung ischemia‒reperfusion (IR) injury.

Methods

The expression of miR-206 was analyzed in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of patients on Days 0 and 1 after lung transplantation. Lung IR injury was evaluated in C57BL/6 mice using a left lung hilar-ligation model with or without treatment with EVs or antagomiR-206‒enriched EVs. Murine lung tissue was used for miRNA microarray hybridization analysis, and cytokine expression, lung injury, and edema were evaluated. A donation after circulatory death and murine orthotopic lung transplantation model was used to evalua
