M2 macrophage-derived exosomal miR-145-5p protects against the hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced pyroptosis of cardiomyocytes by inhibiting TLR4 expression.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Exosomes carrying micro ribonucleic acids (miRNAs) protect against myocardial ischemic injury. In the study, we sought to investigate the protective effect mechanism of M2 macrophage-derived exosome miR-145-5p in hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R)-induced cardiomyocytes.

Methods

M2 macrophages were isolated and induced from blood donated by healthy donors. M2 macrophages were transfected with or without miR-145-5p. Exosomes derived from M2 macrophages were isolated and identified by flow cytometry, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). AC16 cells were used to establish an H/R model, and cell activity was detected using a Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK-8). Western blot was used to detect the expression of gasdermin D (GSDMD), nucleotide-bin
