ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2024:104529. [PMID: 39127435 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2024.104529] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2024] [Revised: 07/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
Inhaled particulate matter (PM) is a key factor in millions of yearly air pollution-related deaths worldwide. The oxidative potential of PM indicates its ability to promote an oxidative environment. Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause cell damage via oxidative stress, leading to inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, airway remodeling, and various cell death modes (apoptosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis). ROS can also interact with macromolecules, inducing DNA damage and epigenetic modifications, disrupting homeostasis. These effects have been studied extensively in vitro and confirmed in vivo. This review explores the oxidative potential of airborne particles and PM-induced ROS-mediated cellular damage observed in vitro, highlighting the link between oxidative stress, inflammation, and cell death modes described in the latest literature. The review also analyzes the effects of ROS on DNA damage, repair, carcinogenicity, and epigenetics. Additionally, the latest developments on the potential of antioxidants to prevent ROS's harmful effects are described, providing future perspectives on the topic.

Abstract
This comprehensive review inspects the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) across multiple organ systems. Examining their impact on the integumentary, respiratory, cardiovascular, urinary, and skeletal systems, the study highlights the versatility of MSC-EVs in addressing diverse medical conditions. Key pathways, such as Nrf2/HO-1, consistently emerge as central mediators of their antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. From expediting diabetic wound healing to mitigating oxidative stress-induced skin injuries, alleviating acute lung injuries, and even offering solutions for conditions like myocardial infarction and renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, MSC-EVs demonstrate promising therapeutic efficacy. Their adaptability to different administration routes and identifying specific factors opens avenues for innovative regenerative strategies. This review positions MSC-EVs as promising candidates for future clinical applications, providing a comprehensive overview of their potential impact on regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a primary air pollutant recognized worldwide as a serious threat to public health. PM2.5, which has a diameter of less than 2.5 μm, is known to cause various diseases, including cardiovascular, respiratory, metabolic, and neurological diseases. Studies have shown that the respiratory system is particularly susceptible to PM2.5 as it is the first line of defense against external pollutants. PM2.5 can cause oxidative stress, which is triggered by the catalyzation of biochemical reactions, the activation of oxidases and metabolic enzymes, and mitochondrial dysfunction, all of which can lead to lung injury and aggravate various respiratory diseases including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and cancer. Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the harmful effects and mechanisms of PM2.5 on the respiratory system by activating several detrimental pathways related to inflammation and cellular damage. However, experimental studies have shown that antioxidative therapy methods can effectively cure PM2.5-induced lung injury. This review aims to clarify how PM2.5 induces oxidative stress and the mechanisms by which it is involved in the aggravation of various lung diseases. Additionally, we have listed antioxidant treatments to protect against PM2.5-induced lung injury.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative disease and the primary pathogenic consequence of OA is inflammation, which can affect a variety of tissues including the synovial membrane, articular cartilage, and subchondral bone. The development of the intra-articular microenvironment can be significantly influenced by the shift of synovial macrophages between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory phenotypes. By regulating macrophage inflammatory responses, the NF-κB signaling route is essential in the therapy of OA; whereas, the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway appears to manage the relationship between oxidative stress and inflammation. Additionally, it has been demonstrated that under oxidative stress and inflammation, there is a significant interaction between transcriptional pathways involving Nrf2 and NF-κB. Studying how Nrf2 signaling affects inflammation and cellular metabolism may help us understand how to treat OA by reprogramming macrophage behavior because Nrf2 signaling is thought to affect cellular metabolism. The candidates for treating OA by promoting an anti-inflammatory mechanism by activating Nrf2 are also reviewed in this paper.

Complex urban atmosphere alters alveolar stem cells niche properties and drives lung fibrosis. Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 2023; 325:L447-L459. [PMID: 37529852 PMCID: PMC10639009 DOI: 10.1152/ajplung.00061.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 08/03/2023] Open
Abstract
There is growing evidence suggesting that urban pollution has adverse effects on lung health. However, how urban pollution affects alveolar mesenchymal and epithelial stem cell niches remains unknown. This study aimed to determine how complex representative urban atmospheres alter alveolar stem cell niche properties. Mice were placed in an innovative chamber realistically simulating the atmosphere of a megalopolis, or "clean air," for 7 days. Lungs were collected, and fibroblasts and epithelial cells (EpCAM+) were isolated. Proliferative capacities of fibroblasts were tested by population doubling levels (PDL), and microarray analyses were performed. Fibroblasts and EpCAM+ cells from exposed, nonexposed, or naive mice were cocultured in organoid assays to assess the stem cell properties. Collagen deposition (Sirius red), lipofibroblasts (ADRP, COL1A1), myofibroblasts (αSMA), alveolar type 2 cells (AT2, SFTPC+), and alveolar differentiation intermediate cell [ADI, keratin-8-positive (KRT8+)/claudin-4-positive (CLDN4+)] markers were quantified in the lungs. Fibroblasts obtained from mice exposed to urban atmosphere had lower PDL and survival and produced fewer and smaller organoids. Microarray analysis showed a decrease of adipogenesis and an increase of genes associated with fibrosis, suggesting a lipofibroblast to myofibroblast transition. Collagen deposition and myofibroblast number increased in the lungs of urban atmosphere-exposed mice. AT2 number was reduced and associated with an increase in ADI cells KRT8+/CLDN4+. Furthermore, EpCAM+ cells from exposed mice also produced fewer and smaller organoids. In conclusion, urban atmosphere alters alveolar mesenchymal stem cell niche properties by inducing a lipofibroblast to myofibroblast shift. It also results in alveolar epithelial dysfunction and a fibrotic-like phenotype.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Urban pollution is known to have major adverse effects on lung health. To assess the effect of pollution on alveolar regeneration, we exposed adult mice to a simulated high-pollution urban atmosphere, using an innovative CESAM simulation chamber (Multiphase Atmospheric Experimental Simulation Chamber, https://cesam.cnrs.fr/). We demonstrated that urban atmosphere alters alveolar mesenchymal stem cell niche properties by inducing a lipofibroblast to myofibroblast shift and induces alveolar epithelial dysfunction.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that extracellular vesicles (EVs) serve powerful and complex functions in metabolic regulation and metabolic-associated disease, although this field of research is still in its infancy. EVs are released into the extracellular space from all cells and carry a wide range of cargo including miRNAs, mRNA, DNA, proteins, and metabolites that have robust signaling effects in receiving cells. EV production is stimulated by all major stress pathways and, as such, has a role in both restoring homeostasis during stress and perpetuating disease. In metabolic regulation, the dominant stress signal is a lack of energy due to either nutrient deficits or damaged mitochondria from nutrient excess. This stress signal is termed "energetic stress," which triggers a robust and evolutionarily conserved response that engages major cellular stress pathways, the ER unfolded protein response, the hypoxia response, the antioxidant response, and autophagy. This article proposes the model that energetic stress is the dominant stimulator of EV release with a focus on metabolically important cells such as hepatocytes, adipocytes, myocytes, and pancreatic β-cells. Furthermore, this article will discuss how the cargo in stress-stimulated EVs regulates metabolism in receiving cells in both beneficial and detrimental ways. © 2023 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cell transplantation alone is insufficient when motor dysfunction is severe; combination therapy with rehabilitation could improve motor function. Here, we aimed to analyze the characteristics of adipose-derived MSCs (AD-MSCs) and determine their effectiveness in severe spinal cord injury (SCI) treatment. A severe SCI model was created and motor function were compared. The rats were divided into AD-MSC-transplanted treadmill exercise-combined (AD-Ex), AD-MSC-transplanted non-exercise (AD-noEx), PBS-injected exercise (PBS-Ex), and no PBS-injected exercise (PBS-noEx) groups. In cultured cell experiments, AD-MSCs were subjected to oxidative stress, and the effects on the extracellular secretion of AD-MSCs were investigated using multiplex flow cytometry. We assessed angiogenesis and macrophage accumulation in the acute phase. Spinal cavity or scar size and axonal preservation were assessed histologically in the subacute phase. Significant motor function improvement was observed in the AD-Ex group. Vascular endothelial growth factor and C-C motif chemokine 2 expression in AD-MSC culture supernatants increased under oxidative stress. Enhanced angiogenesis and decreased macrophage accumulation were observed at 2 weeks post-transplantation, whereas spinal cord cavity or scar size and axonal preservation were observed at 4 weeks. Overall, AD-MSC transplantation combined with treadmill exercise training improved motor function in severe SCI. AD-MSC transplantation promoted angiogenesis and neuroprotection.

Abstract
The determination of endogenous Fe, Cu and Zn in exosomes (<200 nm extracellular vesicles) secreted by an in vitro model of the human retinal pigment epithelium (HRPEsv cell line) was carried out by inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Results for cells treated with 2,2'-azobis (2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AAPH) inducing oxidative stress (OS) conditions were compared with non-treated (control) cells in order to evaluate possible differences in the metal composition between both groups. Three sample introduction systems were tested for ICP-MS analysis: a micronebulizer and two single cell nebulization systems (as total consumption set-ups), being found one of the single cell systems (operating in bulk mode) as the most suitable. Two protocols for the isolation of exosomes from cell culture media were investigated based on differential centrifugation and precipitation with a polymer-based reagent. Transmission electron microscopy measurements showed smaller and more homogeneous sizes (15-50 nm versus 20-180 nm size range) together with a higher particle concentration for exosomes purified by precipitation compared to differential centrifugation. However, it was observed that the contribution of polymer-based protocol to the Fe, Cu and Zn blank was significant as compared to the differential centrifugation protocol. Therefore, considering the low concentrations of the evaluated endogenous elements in exosomes from the HRPEsv cell line, the polymer-based precipitation method was discarded. When comparing metal levels in samples from control versus OS-treated HRPEsv cells, results for Fe and Cu were statistically similar. However, upregulation of Zn was found during OS conditions (11 versus 34 μg L-1 in control and OS-treatment, respectively), showing Zn depletion through secretory activity induced by OS, underlying the antioxidant ability of RPE cells.

A cross-talk between sestrins, chronic inflammation and cellular senescence governs the development of age-associated sarcopenia and obesity. Ageing Res Rev 2023; 86:101852.

Abstract
The rapid increase in both the lifespan and proportion of older adults is accompanied by the unprecedented rise in age-associated chronic diseases, including sarcopenia and obesity. Aging is also manifested by increased susceptibility to multiple endogenous and exogenous stresses enabling such chronic conditions to develop. Among the main physiological regulators of cellular adaption to various stress stimuli, such as DNA damage, hypoxia, and oxidative stress, are sestrins (Sesns), a family of three evolutionarily conserved proteins, Sesn1, 2, and 3. Age-associated sarcopenia and obesity are characterized by two key processes: (i) accumulation of senescent cells in the skeletal muscle and adipose tissue and (ii) creation of a systemic, chronic, low-grade inflammation (SCLGI). Presumably, failed SCLGI resolution governs the development of these chronic conditions. Noteworthy, Sesns activate senolytics, which are agents that selectively eliminate senescent cells, as well as specialized pro-resolving mediators, which are factors that physiologically provide inflammation resolution. Sesns reveal clear beneficial effects in pre-clinical models of sarcopenia and obesity. Based on these observations, we propose a novel treatment strategy for age-associated sarcopenia and obesity, complementary to the conventional therapeutic modalities: Sesn activation, SCLGI resolution, and senescent cell elimination.

Abstract
Ambient particulate matter (PM) can cause adverse health effects via their ability to produce Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). Water-Soluble Organic Compounds (WSOCs), a complex mixture of organic compounds which usually coexist with Transition Metals (TMs) in PM, have been found to contribute to ROS formation. However, the interaction between WSOCs and TMs and its effect on ROS generation are still unknown. In this study, we examined the ROS concentrations of V, Zn, Suwannee River Fulvic Acid (SRFA), Suwannee River Humic Acid (SRHA) and the mixtures of V/Zn and SRFA/SRHA by using a cell-free 2',7'-Dichlorodihydrofluorescein (DCFH) assay. The results showed that V or Zn synergistically promoted ROS generated by SRFA, but had an antagonistic effect on ROS generated by SRHA. Fluorescence quenching experiments indicated that V and Zn were more prone to form stable complexes with aromatic humic acid-like component (C1) and fulvic acid-like component (C3) in SRFA and SRHA. Results suggested that the underlying mechanism involving the fulvic acid-like component in SRFA more tending to complex with TMs to facilitate ROS generation through π electron transfer. Our work showed that the complexing ability and complexing stability of atmospheric PM organics with metals could significantly affect ROS generation. It is recommended that the research deploying multiple analytical methods to quantify the impact of PM components on public health and environment is needed in the future.

Abstract
Most eukaryotic cells, including hepatocytes, secrete exosomes into the extracellular space, which are vesicles facilitating horizontal cell-to-cell communication of molecular signals and physiological cues. The molecular cues for cellular functions are carried by exosomes via specific mRNAs, microRNAs, and proteins. Exosomes released by liver cells are a vital part of biomolecular communication in liver diseases. Importantly, exosomes play a critical role in mediating alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) and are potential biomarkers for ALD. Moreover, alcohol exposure itself promotes exosome biogenesis and release from the livers of humans and rodent models. However, the mechanisms by which alcohol promotes exosome biogenesis in hepatocytes are still unclear. Of note, alcohol exposure leads to liver injury by modulating various cellular processes, including autophagy, ER stress, oxidative stress, and epigenetics. Evidence suggests that there is a link between each of these processes with exosome biogenesis. The aim of this review article is to discuss the interplay between ethanol exposure and these altered cellular processes in promoting hepatocyte exosome biogenesis and release. Based on the available literature, we summarize and discuss the potential mechanisms by which ethanol induces exosome release from hepatocytes, which in turn leads to the progression of ALD.

Abstract
Particulate matter (PM) pollution is one of the major public health problems worldwide, given the high mortality attributable to exposure to PM pollution and the high pathogenicity that is found above all in the respiratory, cardiovascular, and neurological systems. The main sources of PM pollution are the daily use of fuels (wood, coal, organic residues) in appliances without emissions abatement systems, industrial emissions, and vehicular traffic. This review aims to investigate the causes of PM pollution and classify the different types of dust based on their size. The health effects of exposure to PM will also be discussed. Particular attention is paid to the measurement method, which is unsuitable in the risk assessment process, as the evaluation of the average PM compared to the evaluation of PM with punctual monitoring significantly underestimates the health risk induced by the achievement of high PM values, even for limited periods of time.

Wang L, He C. Nrf2-mediated anti-inflammatory polarization of macrophages as therapeutic targets for osteoarthritis. Front Immunol 2022; 13:967193. [PMID: 36032081 PMCID: PMC9411667 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.967193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Macrophages are the most abundant immune cells within the synovial joints, and also the main innate immune effector cells triggering the initial inflammatory responses in the pathological process of osteoarthritis (OA). The transition of synovial macrophages between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory phenotypes can play a key role in building the intra-articular microenvironment. The pro-inflammatory cascade induced by TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 is closely related to M1 macrophages, resulting in the production of pro-chondrolytic mediators. However, IL-10, IL1RA, CCL-18, IGF, and TGF are closely related to M2 macrophages, leading to the protection of cartilage and the promoted regeneration. The inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway is central in OA treatment via controlling inflammatory responses in macrophages, while the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway appears not to attract widespread attention in the field. Nrf2 is a transcription factor encoding a large number of antioxidant enzymes. The activation of Nrf2 can have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, which can also have complex crosstalk with NF-κB signaling pathway. The activation of Nrf2 can inhibit the M1 polarization and promote the M2 polarization through potential signaling transductions including TGF-β/SMAD, TLR/NF-κB, and JAK/STAT signaling pathways, with the regulation or cooperation of Notch, NLRP3, PI3K/Akt, and MAPK signaling. And the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and the negative regulation of Nrf2 for NF-κB can be the main mechanisms for promotion. Furthermore, the candidates of OA treatment by activating Nrf2 to promote M2 phenotype macrophages in OA are also reviewed in this work, such as itaconate and fumarate derivatives, curcumin, quercetin, melatonin, mesenchymal stem cells, and low-intensity pulsed ultrasound.

Exogenous Melatonin Activating Nuclear Factor E2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) Pathway via Melatonin Receptor to Reduce Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in Antler Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27082515. [PMID: 35458712 PMCID: PMC9029981 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27082515] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Revised: 04/09/2022] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Antler growth depends on the proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and this process may be adversely affected by oxidative stress. Melatonin (MLT) has antioxidant functions, but its role in Cervidae remains largely unknown. In this article, flow cytometry, reactive oxygen species (ROS) identification, qPCR, and other methods were used to investigate the protective mechanism of MLT in H2O2-induced oxidative stress of antler MSCs. The results showed that MLT significantly increases cell viability by relieving the oxidative stress of antler MSCs. MLT inhibits cell apoptosis by protecting mitochondrial function. We blocked the melatonin receptor with luzindole (Luz) and found that the receptor blockade significantly increases H2O2-induced hyperoxide levels and causes significant inhibition of mitochondrial function. MLT treatment activates the nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) antioxidant signaling pathway, up-regulates the expression of NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) and other genes and it could inhibit apoptosis. In contrast, the melatonin receptor blockade down-regulates the expression of Nrf2 pathway-related genes, but significantly up-regulates the expression of apoptotic genes. It was indicated that MLT activates the Nrf2 pathway through the melatonin receptor and alleviates H2O2-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in antler MSCs. This study provides a theoretical basis for further studying the oxidative stress and antioxidant process of antler MSCs and, thereby, increasing antler yields.

Abstract
Respiratory diseases are leading causes of death and disability in developing and developed countries. The burden of acute and chronic respiratory diseases has been rising throughout the world and represents a major problem in the public health system. Acute respiratory diseases include pneumonia, influenza, SARS-CoV-2 and MERS viral infections; while chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma and, occupational lung diseases (asbestosis, pneumoconiosis) and other parenchymal lung diseases namely lung cancer and tuberculosis are examples of chronic respiratory diseases. Importantly, chronic respiratory diseases are not curable and treatments for acute pathologies are particularly challenging. For that reason, the integration of nanotechnology to existing drugs or for the development of new treatments potentially benefits the therapeutic goals by making drugs more effective and exhibit fewer undesirable side effects to treat these conditions. Moreover, the integration of different nanostructures enables improvement of drug bioavailability, transport and delivery compared to stand-alone drugs in traditional respiratory therapy. Notably, there has been great progress in translating nanotechnology-based cancer therapies and diagnostics into the clinic; however, researchers in recent years have focused on the application of nanostructures in other relevant pulmonary diseases as revealed in our database search. Furthermore, polymeric nanoparticles and micelles are the most studied nanostructures in a wide range of diseases; however, liposomal nanostructures are recognized to be some of the most successful commercial drug delivery systems. In conclusion, this review presents an overview of the recent and relevant research in drug delivery systems for the treatment of different pulmonary diseases and outlines the trends, limitations, importance and application of nanomedicine technology in treatment and diagnosis and future work in this field.

Abstract
Background We explored the therapeutic effects of Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) and Synovial‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (SDMSCs) on osteoarthritis (OA). Methods SDMSCs and ADMSCs were co‐cultured with chondrocytes and stimulated with interleukin (IL)‐1β. An OA model was established on rats by intra‐articular injection with ADMSCs and SDMSCs. After 8 weeks, the joint diameter difference was detected, and histological staining was used to observe the pathological changes in cartilage tissue. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the expressions of IL‐6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α and IL‐1β in joint fluid. The expressions of COL2A1, Aggrecan, Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐13, SOX9, IL‐6, TNF‐α and IL‐1β were detected by qRT‐PCR and Western blotting in cartilage tissue. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) content in cells and cartilage tissues was detected by ROS kit. Results SDMSCs and ADMSCs co‐cultured with chondrocytes could reduce MMP‐13 expression, increase the expressions of COL2A1, Aggrecan and SOX9, as well as reverse the effects of IL‐1β on promoting ROS content and inflammatory factors levels. After the OA model was established, the injection of ADMSCs and SDMSCs reduced the differences in joint diameter and tissue lesions in OA rats. The OA model led to increased levels of IL‐6, TNF‐α and IL‐1β in joint fluid and cartilage tissue, while the injection of ADMSCs and SDMSCs inhibited the inflammatory factor levels in OA rats, and increased the expressions of COL2A1, Aggrecan and SOX9 in OA rats. Conclusion ADMSCs and SDMSCs improve osteoarthritis in rats by reducing chondrocyte ROS and inhibiting inflammatory response.

Differential Lung Protective Capacity of Exosomes Derived from Human Adipose Tissue, Bone Marrow, and Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Sepsis-Induced Acute Lung Injury. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:7837837. [PMID: 35265265 PMCID: PMC8898768 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7837837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2021] [Accepted: 01/29/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Exosomes derived from human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) have the capacity to regulate various biological events associated with sepsis-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), including cellular immunometabolism, the production of proinflammatory cytokines, allowing them to exert therapeutic effects. However, little is known about which type of hMSC-derived exosomes (hMSC-exo) is more effective and suitable for the treatment of sepsis-induced ARDS. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of hMSC-derived exosomes from human adipose tissue (hADMSC-exo), human bone marrow (hBMMSC-exo), and human umbilical cord (hUCMSC-exo) in the treatment of sepsis-induced ARDS. We cocultured lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells with the three kinds of hMSCs and found that all hMSCs reduced the glycolysis level and the content of lactic acid in macrophages. Accordingly, the expression of proinflammatory cytokines also decreased. Notably, the protective effects of hMSCs from adipose tissue were more obvious than those of bone marrow and umbilical cord hMSCs. However, this protective effect was eliminated when an exosome inhibitor, GW4869, was added. Subsequently, we extracted and cocultured hMSC-derived exosomes with LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells and found that all three kinds of exosomes exerted a similar protective effect as their parental cells, with exosomes from adipose hMSCs showing the strongest protective effect. Finally, an experimental sepsis model in mice was established, and we found that all three types of hMSCs have obvious lung-protective effects, in reducing lung injury scores, lactic acid, and proinflammatory cytokine levels in the lung tissues and decreasing the total protein content and inflammatory cell count in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and also can attenuate the systemic inflammatory response and improve the survival rate of mice. Intravenous injection of three types of hMSC-exo, in particular those derived from adipose hADMSCs, also showed lung-protective effects in mice. These findings revealed that exosomes derived from different sources of hMSCs can effectively downregulate sepsis-induced glycolysis and inflammation in macrophages, ameliorate the lung pathological damage, and improve the survival rate of mice with sepsis. It is worth noting that the protective effect of hADMSC-exo is better than that of hBMMSC-exo and hUCMSC-exo.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment is a serious side effect of post-myocardial infarction (MI) course. We have recently demonstrated that human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) ameliorated myocardial injury after MI by attenuating reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Here, we studied whether the beneficial effects of intramyocardial hADSC transplantation can extend to the brain and how they may attenuate cognitive dysfunction via modulating ROS after MI. After coronary ligation, male Wistar rats were randomized via an intramyocardial route to receive either vehicle, hADSC transplantation (1 × 106 cells), or the combination of hADSCs and 3-Morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1, a peroxynitrite donor). Whether hADSCs migrated into the hippocampus was assessed by using human-specific primers in qPCR reactions. Passive avoidance test was used to assess cognitive performance. Postinfarction was associated with increased oxidative stress in the myocardium, circulation, and hippocampus. This was coupled with decreased numbers of dendritic spines as well as a significant downregulation of synaptic plasticity consisting of synaptophysin and PSD95. Step-through latency during passive avoidance test was impaired in vehicle-treated rats after MI. Intramyocardial hADSC injection exerted therapeutic benefits in improving cardiac function and cognitive impairment. None of hADSCs was detected in rat's hippocampus at the 3rd day after intramyocardial injection. The beneficial effects of hADSCs on MI-induced histological and cognitive changes were abolished after adding SIN-1. MI-induced ROS attacked the hippocampus to induce neurodegeneration, resulting in cognitive deficit. The remotely intramyocardial administration of hADSCs has the capacity of improved synaptic neuroplasticity in the hippocampus mediated by ROS, not the cell engraftment, after MI. KEY MESSAGES: Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) ameliorated injury after myocardial infarction by attenuating reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Intramyocardial administration of hADSCs remotely exerted therapeutic benefits in improving cognitive impairment after myocardial infarction. The improved synaptic neuroplasticity in the hippocampus was mediated by hADSC-inhibiting ROS, not by the stem cell engraftment.

Abstract
Hepatic ischaemia reperfusion injury (HIRI) is a major factor leading to liver dysfunction after liver resection and liver transplantation. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have potential therapeutic effects on HIRI. Exosomes derived from ADSCs (ADSCs-exo) have been widely studied as an alternative of ADSCs therapy. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential protective effect and related mechanism of ADSCs-exo on HIRI subsequent to hepatectomy. Rats were randomly divided into four groups: Sham, I30R+PH, ADSCs and ADSCs-exo group. After 24 h of reperfusion, liver and serum of the rats were immediately collected. ADSCs-exo improved liver function, inhibited oxidative stress and reduced apoptosis of hepatocytes in HIRI subsequent to hepatectomy in rats. ADSCs-exo significantly promoted the recovery of mitochondrial function, markedly increased the content of ATP in the liver tissue, and improved the ultrastructure of mitochondria in hepatocytes. Moreover, ADSCs-exo significantly increased the expression of OPA-1, MFN-1 and MFN-2 proteins related to mitochondrial fusion, while DRP-1 and Fis-1 mRNA and protein expression associated with mitochondrial fission were significantly decreased after the treatment with ADSCs-exo. In addition, ADSCs-exo significantly increased the expression of PGC-1α, NRF-1 and TFAM genes and proteins related to mitochondrial biogenesis. ADSCs-exo improves liver function induced by HIRI subsequent to hepatectomy in rats and maintains mitochondrial homeostasis by inhibiting mitochondrial fission, promoting mitochondrial fusion and promoting mitochondrial biogenesis. Therefore, ADSCs-exo may be considered as a potential promising alternative to ADSCs in the treatment of HIRI subsequent to hepatectomy.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles are cellular secretory particles that can be used as natural drug delivery carriers. They have successfully delivered drugs including chemotherapeutics, proteins, and genes to treat various diseases. Oxidative stress is an abnormal physiological phenomenon, and it is associated with nearly all diseases. In this short review, we summarize the regulation of EVs on oxidative stress. There are direct effects and indirect effects on the regulation of oxidative stress through EVs. On the one hand, they can deliver antioxidant substances or oxides to recipient cells, directly relieving or aggravating oxidative stress. On the other hand, regulate factors of oxidative stress-related signaling pathways can be delivered to recipient cells by the mediation of EVs, realizing the indirect regulation of oxidative stress. To the best of our knowledge, however, only endogenous drugs have been delivered by EVs to regulate oxidative stress till now. And the heterogeneity of EVs may complicate the regulation of oxidative stress. Therefore, this short review aims to draw more attention to the EVs-based regulation of oxidative stress, and we hope excellent EVs-based delivery carriers that can deliver exogenous drugs to regulate oxidative stress can be exploited.

Abstract
This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (https://www.elsevier.com/about/our-business/policies/article-withdrawal). The authors have requested that this paper be retracted as they were unable to replicate the experimental data reported in Figure 1A. The authors posit that changes in reagents or experimental conditions might be the source of their inability to do so. Additional concerns were raised about the reliability of the Western blot results in Figure 1E, Figure 4B and F, Figure 5B, and Figure 6B, as regarding ‘morphology space’ similarities contained within a series of papers with distinctive eyebrow blots, tabulated here (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/149EjFXVxpwkBXYJOnOHb6RhAqT4a2llhj9LM60MBffM/edit#gid=0 [nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com] [nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com]). The journal requested the authors comment on these concerns and provide raw data. However, the authors were not able to fulfil this request and therefore the Editor-in-Chief decided to retract the article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The adverse health effects of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure are associated with marked inflammatory responses. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have immunosuppressive effects, and ADSC transplantation could attenuate pulmonary fibrosis in different animal disease models. However, whether ADSCs affect PM2.5-induced lung injury has not been investigated. METHOD C57BL/6 mice were exposed to PM2.5 every other day via intratracheal instillation for 4 weeks. After that, the mice received tail vein injections of ADSCs every 2 weeks. RESULTS ADSC transplantation significantly attenuated systemic and pulmonary inflammation, cardiac dysfunction, fibrosis, and cell death in PM2.5-exposed mice. RNA-sequencing results and bioinformatic analysis suggested that the downregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were mainly enriched in inflammatory and immune pathways. Moreover, ADSC transplantation attenuated PM2.5-induced cell apoptosis and pyroptosis in the lungs and hearts. CONCLUSION ADSCs protect against PM2.5-induced adverse health effects through attenuating pulmonary inflammation and cell death. Our findings suggest that ADSC transplantation may be a potential therapeutic approach for severe air pollution-associated diseases.

Front Cell Dev Biol 2021; 9:607341. [PMID: 33644046 PMCID: PMC7907455 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2021.607341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2020] [Accepted: 01/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Increasing evidence demonstrated that PM2.5 could cross the placenta and fetal blood-brain barrier, causing neurotoxicity of embryonic development. The retina, an embryologic extension of the central nervous system, is extremely sensitive and vulnerable to environmental insults. The adverse effects of PM2.5 exposure on the retina during embryonic neurodevelopment are still largely unknown. Our goal was to investigate the effect of PM2.5 on human retinal development, which was recapitulated by human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived retinal organoids (hEROs). In the present study, using the hEROs as the model, the influences and the mechanisms of PM2.5 on the developing retina were analyzed. It demonstrated that the formation rate of the hERO-derived neural retina (NR) was affected by PM2.5 in a concentration dosage-dependent manner. The areas of hEROs and the thickness of hERO-NRs were significantly reduced after PM2.5 exposure at the concentration of 25, 50, and 100 μg/ml, which was due to the decrease of proliferation and the increase of apoptosis. Although we did not spot significant effects on retinal differentiation, PM2.5 exposure did lead to hERO-NR cell disarranging and structural disorder, especially retinal ganglion cell dislocation. Transcriptome analysis showed that PM2.5 treatment was significantly associated with the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathways and reduced the level of the fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), particularly FGF8 and FGF10. These results provided evidence that PM2.5 exposure potentially inhibited proliferation and increased apoptosis at the early development stage of the human NR, probably through the MAPK and PI3K/Akt pathway. Our study suggested that exposure to PM2.5 suppressed cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis, thereby contributing to abnormal human retinal development.
