Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Alleviate M1 Microglial Activation in Brain Injury of Mice With Subarachnoid Hemorrhage via microRNA-140-5p Delivery.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It is documented that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs) to modulate subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) development. miR-140-5p expression has been detected in MSC-derived EVs, while the mechanism of MSC-derived EVs containing miR-140-5p in SAH remains unknown. We aim to fill this void by establishing SAH mouse models and extracting MSCs and MSC-EVs.

Methods

After ALK5 was silenced in SAH mice, neurological function was evaluated, neuron apoptosis was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling with NeuN staining, and expression of serum inflammatory factors (interleukin-6, interleukin-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α) was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The effect of ALK5 on NOX2 expression was assessed by wes
