Exosomal microRNA-139-5p from mesenchymal stem cells accelerates trophoblast cell invasion and migration by motivation of the ERK/MMP-2 pathway via downregulation of protein tyrosine phosphatase.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

Exosomes present essential roles for intercellular interaction via extracellular pathways during systemic dysfunctions, including preeclampsia (PE). Here, we assessed the specific mechanism of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC)-originated exosomes in PE.

Methods

The effects of exosomes on trophoblasts were studied by EdU, wound healing, Transwell and TUNEL assays. By microarray analysis, we found that exosomes enhanced the microRNA-139-5p (miR-139-5p) in trophoblasts, and confirmed the target gene of miR-139-5p by bioinformatics prediction and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. At the same time, ERK/MMP-2 pathway-related biomolecules were assessed through Western blot analysis. The pathway inhibitor was used for rescue experiments. Finally, the effect of exosomes on the pathology of PE rats was verified by in vivo experiments.

Results

The exosomes originated from hucMSC fostered the trophoblast cell migration, invasion and proliferation and obstructed apoptosis. Moreover, miR-139-5p could be transmitted to trophoblasts through hucMSC-secreted exosomes. miR-139-5p targeted protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTEN), which regulated the ERK/MMP-2 pathway. Inhibition of the ERK/MMP-2 pathway significantly reduced the promoting effect of exosomes on trophoblasts. Treatment with exosomes significantly lowered blood pressure values and reduced 24-h proteinuria in PE rats.

Conclusion

hucMSC-originated exosomes overexpressing miR-139-5p activated the ERK/MMP-2 pathway via PTEN downregulation, thus accelerating trophoblast cell invasion and migration, and blocking apoptosis. These results demonstrated that hucMSC-derived exosomes overexpressing miR-139-5p might be an innovative direction for therapeutic approaches against PE.

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.

Project description:BackgroundThe biological effects of cerium dioxide nanoparticles (CeO2NPs), a novel material in the biomedical field, have attracted widespread attention. Our previous study confirmed that exposure to CeO2NPs during pregnancy led to abnormal trophoblast invasion during early placental development, thereby impairing placental development. The potential mechanisms may be related to low-quality decidualization triggered by CeO2NPs exposure, such as an imbalance in trophoblast invasion regulators secreted by decidual cells. However, the intermediate link mediating the "dialogue" between decidual cells and trophoblasts during this process remains unclear. As an important connection between cells, exosomes participate in the "dialogue" between endometrial cells and trophoblasts. Exosomes transfer bioactive microRNA into target cells, which can target and regulate the level of mRNA in target cells.ResultsHere, we constructed a mice primary uterine stromal cell-induced decidualization model in vitro, and detected the effect of CeO2NPs exposure on the expression of decidual-derived exosomal miRNAs by high-throughput sequencing. Bioinformatics analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assays were performed to identify target genes of the screened key miRNAs in regulating trophoblast invasion. Finally, the role of the screened miRNAs and their target genes in regulating trophoblast (HTR-8/SVneo cells) invasion was confirmed. The results showed that CeO2NPs exposure inhibited trophoblast invasion by promoting miR-99a-5p expression in decidual-derived exosomes, and Ppp2r5a is a potential target gene for miR-99a-5p to inhibit trophoblast invasion.ConclusionsThis study revealed the molecular mechanism by which CeO2NPs exposure inhibits trophoblast invasion from the perspective of decidual derived exosomal miRNAs. These results will provide an experimental basis for screening potential therapeutic targets for the negative biological effects of CeO2NPs exposure and new ideas for studying the mechanism of damage to trophoblast cells at the decidual-foetal interface by harmful environmental or occupational factors.
