Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-bound vesicles secreted by all cell types that play a central role in cell-to-cell communication. Since these vesicles serve as vehicles of cellular content (nucleic acids, proteins and lipids) with the potential to cross biological barriers, they represent a novel attractive window into an otherwise inaccessible organ, such as the brain. The composition of EVs is cell-type specific and mirrors the physiological condition of the cell-of-origin. Consequently, during viral infection, EVs undergo significant changes in their content and morphology, thereby reflecting alterations in the cellular state. Here, we briefly summarize the potential of brain-derived EVs as a lens into viral infection in the central nervous system, thereby: 1) uncovering underlying pathophysiological processes at play and 2) serving as liquid biopsies of the brain, representing a non-invasive source of biomarkers for monitoring disease activity. Although translating the potential of EVs from research to diagnosis poses complexities, characterizing brain-derived EVs in the context of viral infections holds promise to enhance diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, offering new avenues for managing infectious neurological diseases.

Gestational Hypoxia Impaired Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthesis Via miR-155-5p/NADPH Oxidase/Reactive Oxygen Species Axis in Male Offspring Vessels. J Am Heart Assoc 2024; 13:e032079.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nitric oxide (NO) is the most important vasodilator secreted by vascular endothelial cells, and its abnormal synthesis is involved in the development of cardiovascular disease. The prenatal period is a critical time for development and largely determines lifelong vascular health in offspring. Given the high incidence and severity of gestational hypoxia in mid-late pregnancy, it is urgent to further explore whether it affects the long-term synthesis of NO in offspring vascular endothelial cells. METHODS AND RESULTS Pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were housed in a normoxic or hypoxic (10.5% O2) chamber from gestation days 10 to 20. The thoracic aortas of fetal and adult male offspring were isolated for experiments. Gestational hypoxia significantly reduces the NO-dependent vasodilation mediated by acetylcholine in both the fetal and adult offspring thoracic aorta rings. Meanwhile, acetylcholine-induced NO synthesis is impaired in vascular endothelial cells from hypoxic offspring thoracic aortas. We demonstrate that gestational hypoxic offspring exhibit a reduced endothelial NO synthesis capacity, primarily due to increased expression of NADPH oxidase 2 and enhanced reactive oxygen species. Additionally, gestational hypoxic offspring show elevated levels of miR-155-5p in vascular endothelial cells, which is associated with increased expression of NADPH oxidase 2 and reactive oxygen species generation, as well as impaired NO synthesis. CONCLUSIONS The present study is the first to demonstrate that gestational hypoxia impairs endothelial NO synthesis via the miR-155-5p/NADPH oxidase 2/reactive oxygen species axis in offspring vessels. These novel findings indicate that the detrimental effects of gestational hypoxia on fetal vascular function can persist into adulthood, providing new insights into the development of vascular diseases.

[PMID: 37957914 PMCID: PMC11082070 DOI: 10.2174/011574888x266357230923113642] [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: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stem cell-released exosomes (EXs) have shown beneficial effects on regenerative diseases. Our previous study has revealed that EXs of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC-EXs) can elicit favorable effects on endothelial function. EXs may vary greatly in size, composition, and cargo uptake rate depending on the origins and stimulus; notably, EXs are promising vehicles for delivering microRNAs (miRs). Since miR-210 is known to protect cerebral endothelial cell mitochondria by reducing oxidative stress, here we study the effects of miR-210-loaded EPC-EXs (miR210-EPC-EXs) on ischemic brain damage in acute ischemic stroke (IS). METHODS The miR210-EPC-EXs were generated from EPCs transfected with miR-210 mimic. Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) surgery was performed to induce acute IS in C57BL/6 mice. EPC-EXs or miR210-EPC-EXs were administrated via tail vein injection 2 hrs after IS. To explore the potential mechanisms, inhibitors of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2)/PI3 kinase (PI3K) or tyrosine receptor kinase B (TrkB)/PI3k pathways were used. The brain tissue was collected after treatments for infarct size, cell apoptosis, oxidative stress, and protein expression (VEGFR2, TrkB) analyses on day two. The neurological deficit score (NDS) was evaluated before collecting the samples. RESULTS 1) As compared to EPC-EXs, miR210-EPC-EXs profoundly reduced the infarct volume and improved the NDS on day two post-IS. 2) Fewer apoptosis cells were detected in the peri-infarct brain of mice treated with miR210-EPC-EXs than in EPC-EXs-treated mice. Meanwhile, the oxidative stress was profoundly reduced by miR210-EPC-EXs. 3) The ratios of p-PI3k/PI3k, p- VEGFR2/VEGFR2, and p-TrkB/TrkB in the ipsilateral brain were raised by miR210-EPC-EXs treatment. These effects could be significantly blocked or partially inhibited by PI3k, VEGFR2, or TrkB pathway inhibitors. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that miR210-EPC-EXs protect the brain from acute ischemia- induced cell apoptosis and oxidative stress partially through the VEGFR2/PI3k and TrkB/PI3k signal pathways.

Abstract
This study investigated the underlying mechanism of miR-18a-5p regulating the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells in vitro and in vivo to indicate the pathogenesis of NPC. Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was utilized to determine miR-18a-5p expression level in NPC tissues and cell lines. Besides, 2,5-diphenyl-2 H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and colony formation assays were employed to detect the effect of miR-18a-5p expression level on NPC cell proliferation. Wound healing and Transwell assays were utilized to detect the effect of miR-18a-5p on NPC cell invasion and migration. The expression levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related proteins (Vimentin, N-cadherin, and E-cadherin) were identified by Western blot assay. After collecting exosomes from CNE-2 cells, it was found that exosomal miR-18a-5p secreted from NPC cells promoted NPC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT, whereas inhibition of miR-18a-5p expression level led to the opposite results. The dual-luciferase reporter assay showed that BTG anti-proliferation factor 3 (BTG3) was the target gene of miR-18a-5p, and BTG3 could overturn the effect of miR-18a-5p on NPC cells. Xenograft mouse model of NPC nude mice showed that miR-18a-5p promoted NPC growth and metastasis in vivo. This study revealed that exosomal miR-18a-5p derived from NPC cells promoted angiogenesis via targeting BTG3 and activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Combination of EPC-EXs and NPC-EXs with miR-126 and miR-210 overexpression produces better therapeutic effects on ischemic stroke by protecting neurons through the Nox2/ROS and BDNF/TrkB pathways. Exp Neurol 2023; 359:114235. [PMID: 36174747 DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2022.114235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Revised: 09/17/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUNDS/AIMS Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and endothelial progenitor cell (EPCs) exhibit synergistical effects on protecting endothelial cell functions. MiR-126 and miR-210 can protect cell activities by regulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Exosomes (EXs) mediate the beneficial effects of stem cells via delivering microRNAs (miRs). Here, we investigated the combination effects of EXs from EPCs (EPC-EXs) and NPCs (NPC-EXs), and determined whether these EXs with miR-126 (EPC-EXsmiR-126) and miR-210 overexpression (NPC-EXsmiR-210) had better effects on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-injured neurons and ischemic stroke (IS). METHODS Cultured neurons were subjected to hypoxia for 6 h and then co-cultured with culture medium, NPC-EXs, EPC-EXs, NPC-EXs + EPC-EXs or NPC-EXsmiR-210 + EPC-EXsmiR-126 under normoxia for 24 h. Cell apoptosis, ROS production, neurite outgrowth and BDNF level were analyzed. Permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was performed on C57BL/6 mice to build IS model. The mice were injected with PBS or various EXs via tail vein 2 h after MCAO operation. After 24 h, infarct volume and neurological deficits score (NDS), neuronal apoptosis, ROS production and spine density of dendrites, and brain BDNF level were analyzed. For mechanism study, NADPH oxidase 2(Nox2) and BDNF receptor tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB) were determined, and TrkB inhibitor k-252a was used in in vitro and in vivo study. RESULTS 1) The level of miR-210 or miR-126 was increased after NPC-EXs or EPC-EXs treatment respectively. 2) In H/R-injured neurons, NPC-EXs or EPC-EXs decreased cell apoptosis and ROS production and promoted neurite outgrowth, which were associated with the downregulation of Nox2 and the increase of BDNF and p-TrkB/TrkB level. 3) In MCAO mice, NPC-EXs or EPC-EXs decreased infarct volume and NDS, reduced neural apoptosis and ROS production, and promoted the spine density of dendrites. The levels of Nox2, BDNF and p-TrkB/TrkB in mouse brain tissues changed in similar patterns as seen in the in vitro study. 4) In both cell and mouse models, combination of NPC-EXs and EPC-EXs was more effective than NPC-EXs or EPC-EXs alone on all of these effects. 5) EPC-EXsmiR-126 + NPC-EXsmiR-210 had better effects compared to NPC-EXs + EPC-EXs, which were inhibited by k-252a. CONCLUSION EPC-EXsmiR-126 combined NPC-EXsmiR-210 further orchestrate the combinative protective effects of EPC-EXs and NPC-EXs on IS, possibly by protecting H/R-injured neurons through the Nox2/ ROS and BDNF/TrkB pathways.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) provide beneficial effects on ischemic stroke by reducing oxidative stress, which could be through EPCs-released exosomes (EPC-EXs). EXs are emerging as a bioagent for mediating cell-cell communications via their carried microRNAs (miR). miR-210 is shown to provide a neuroprotection effect against ischemic stroke. Here, we aimed to determine whether the combination of EPC-EXs and miR-210 would provide an enhanced protective effect on neurons. The hypoxia and reoxygenation (H/R) model were applied to neurons to mimic the ischemic injury of neurons. EPCs were transfected with miR-210 mimic to elevate the level of miR-210 in cells and EPC-EXs (miR210-EPC-EXs). For functional studies, EPC-EXs were co-incubated with H/R-injured neurons, then the cell viability and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production were determined. The results showed 1) H/R induced apoptosis and ROS overproduction in neurons; 2) miR-210 mimic increased the level of miR-210 in both EPCs and EPC-EXs; 3) EPCs cultured in serum-free medium released more exosomes in comparison with cells grown in complete growth media, suggesting serum starving induce the release of EXs; 4) After transfection, EPCs grown in complete media had almost 50 times higher miR-210 level than EPCs had in serum-free media, while the EPCs-EXs isolated from the complete media has lower miR-210 expression than from the serum-free media in a time-dependent manner, suggesting the transfer of miR-210 through EXs; 5) After co-incubation, EPC-EXs and miR210-EPC-EXs were uptaken by neurons, and the miR-210 level in neurons was elevated by miR210-EPC-EXs; 6) miR210-EPC-EXs were more effective in promoting cell viability and decreasing apoptosis and ROS production than EPC-EXs. The present study demonstrated that EPCs-carried miR-210 could be released and transferred to neurons in a time-dependent manner and that miR-210 loading can enhance the protective effects of EPC-EXs on H/R-induced neuron apoptosis, oxidative stress, and decreased viability.

Crosstalk between Oxidative Stress and Exosomes. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:3553617.

Abstract
Mammals have several organs comprising various cells with different functions. Furthermore, eukaryotic cells are compartmentalized into functionally distinct organelles. Thus, for good organismal health, exosomes, which play an important role in cell-to-cell communication, interact closely with oxidative stress. Oxidative stress, which is recognized as a type of intracellular second signal, is aggravated by reactive species. As a subtype of reactive species, reactive oxygen species (ROS) can be produced on the extracellular face of the plasma membrane by NADPH oxidases, via the mitochondrial electron transport chain, in peroxisomes, and in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. The scavenging of ROS is mainly dependent on peroxiredoxins, including GSH peroxidases, peroxiredoxins 3 and 5, and thioredoxin reductase. Intracellular ROS increase the number of intracellular multivesicular bodies (MVBs) by restraining their degradation in lysosomes, thereby enhancing the release of exosomes under the synergy of the depletion of exofacial GSH, which can be regulated by oxidative stress. In contrast, higher ROS levels can decrease the yield of exosomes by activating cellular autophagy to degrade MVBs. Moreover, exosomes can transfer the characteristics of parent cells to recipient cells. Here, we review the interaction between oxidative stress and exosomes in the hope of providing insights into their interplay.

Abstract
Introduction Multicellular crosstalk within the brain tissue has been suggested to play a critical role in maintaining cerebral vascular homeostasis. Exosomes (EXs) mediated cell–cell communication, but its role in cerebral ischemic injury is largely unknown. Rab27a is one of the major genes controlling EX release. Here, we explored the role of Rab27a in regulating brain EXs secretion, and the effects of Rab27a‐mediated EXs on ischemia evoked cerebral vascular disruption and brain injury. Methods Cerebral ischemia was induced in Rab27a knockout (Rab27a−/−) and wide type (WT) mice by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO). Differential gene expression analysis was performed in ischemic brain tissue by using mRNA sequencing. EXs isolated from brain tissue of Rab27a−/− and WT mice (EXWT or EXRab27a−/−) were pre‐administrated into tMCAO operated Rab27a−/− mice or oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) treated primary brain vascular endothelial cells (ECs). Results We demonstrated that Rab27a expression in the peri‐infarct area of brain was significantly elevated, which was associated with local elevation in EXs secretion. Rab27a deficiency dramatically decreased the level of EXs in brain tissue of normal and tMCAO‐treated mice, and Rab27a−/− mice displayed an increase in infarct volume and NDS, and a decrease in cMVD and CBF following tMCAO. Pre‐infusion of EXWT increased the brain EXs levels in the tMCAO operated Rab27a−/− mice, accompanied with an increase in cMVD and CBF, and a decrease in infarct volume, NDS, ROS production, and apoptosis. The effects of EXRab27a−/− infusion were much diminished although in a dose‐dependent manner. In OGD‐treated ECs, EXRab27a−/− showed less effectivity than EXWT in decreasing ROS overproduction and apoptosis, paralleling with down‐regulated expression of NOX2 and cleaved caspase‐3. Conclusion Our study demonstrates that Rab27a controls brain EXs secretion and functions, contributing to cerebral vascular protection from ischemic insult by preventing oxidative stress and apoptosis via down‐regulating NOX2 and cleaved caspase‐3 expression.

Abstract
Significance: microRNA-210 (miR-210) is the master hypoxia-inducible miRNA (hypoxamiR) since it has been found to be significantly upregulated under hypoxia in a wide range of cell types. Recent advances: Gene ontology analysis of its targets indicates that miR-210 modulates several aspects of cellular response to hypoxia. Due to its high pleiotropy, miR-210 not only plays a protective role by fine-tuning mitochondrial metabolism and inhibiting red-ox imbalance and apoptosis, but it can also promote cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration, substantially contributing to angiogenesis. Critical issues: As most miRNAs, modulating different gene pathways, also miR-210 can potentially lead to different and even opposite effects, depending on the physio-pathological contexts in which it acts. Future direction: The use of miRNAs as therapeutics is a fast growing field. This review aimed at highlighting the role of miR-210 in angiogenesis in the context of ischemic cardiovascular diseases and diabetes in order to clarify the molecular mechanisms underpinning miR-210 action. Particular attention will be dedicated to experimentally validated miR-210 direct targets involved in cellular processes related to angiogenesis and diabetes mellitus, such as mitochondrial metabolism, redox balance, apoptosis, migration, and adhesion.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a significant cause of death and disability, and sevoflurane (sevo) can protect myocardium in clinic. We aim to assess the effects of miR-210-3p on MI rats undergoing sevo treatment with the involvement of adenylyl cyclase type 9 (ADCY9). Rat MI models were constructed by ligation of the left anterior descending, and the modeled rats were respectively treated with sevo, miR-210-3p agomir, antagomir, or overexpressed ADCY9. Then, miR-210-3p and ADCY9 expression, cardiac function, myocardial injury and fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in rats were evaluated. Target relation between miR-210-3p and ADCY9 was detected. miR-210-3p was downregulated while ADCY9 was upregulated in MI rats. Sevo was able to promote cardiac function and attenuate myocardial injury and fibrosis, as well as cardiomyocyte apoptosis in MI rats. These effects of sevo were strengthened by miR-210-3p elevation but abolished by miR-210-3p inhibition in MI rats. The role of elevated miR-210-3p in MI rats was reversed by overexpression of ADCY9. Upregulated miR-210-3p improves sevo-induced protective effect on ventricular remodeling in rats with MI through inhibiting ADCY9.

Abstract
Oxidative stress within the vascular endothelium, due to excess generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), is thought to be fundamental to the initiation and progression of the cardiovascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus. The term ROS encompasses a variety of chemical species including superoxide anion (O2•-), hydroxyl radical (OH-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). While constitutive generation of low concentrations of ROS are indispensable for normal cellular function, excess O2•- can result in irreversible tissue damage. Excess ROS generation is catalysed by xanthine oxidase, uncoupled nitric oxide synthases, the mitochondrial electron transport chain and the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases. Amongst enzymatic sources of O2•- the Nox2 isoform of NADPH oxidase is thought to be critical to the oxidative stress found in type 2 diabetes mellitus. In contrast, the transcriptionally regulated Nox4 isoform, which generates H2O2, may fulfil a protective role and contribute to normal glucose homeostasis. This review describes the key roles of Nox2 and Nox4, as well as Nox1 and Nox5, in glucose homeostasis, endothelial function and oxidative stress, with a key focus on how they are regulated in health, and dysregulated in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
With a diverse set of neuronal and glial cell populations, Central Nervous System (CNS) has one of the most complex structures in the body. Intercellular communication is therefore highly important to coordinate cell-to-cell interactions. Besides electrical and chemical messengers, CNS cells also benefit from another communication route, what is known as extracellular vesicles, to harmonize their interactions. Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) and their subtype exosomes are membranous particles secreted by cells and contain information packaged in the form of biomolecules such as small fragments of DNA, lipids, miRNAs, mRNAs, and proteins. They are able to efficiently drive changes upon their arrival to recipient cells. EVs actively participate in all stages of CNS development by stimulating neural cell proliferation, differentiation, synaptic formation, and mediating reciprocal interactions between neurons and oligodendrocyte for myelination process. The aim of the present review is to enlighten the presence and contribution of EVs at each CNS developmental milestone.

Abstract
At present, emerging evidence shows that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play crucial roles for development of multiple tumors. Amongst these ncRNAs, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play prominent roles in physiological and pathological processes. LncRNAs are RNA transcripts larger than 200 nucleotides and have been shown to serve important regulatory roles in different types of cancer via interactions with DNA, RNA and proteins. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most malignant tumors with low survival rates in advanced stages. Recently, lncRNAs have been demonstrated to be involved in a wide range of biological processes, including proliferation, metastasis, and prognosis of HNSCC. Therefore, this review describes molecular mechanisms of up- or down-regulation of lncRNAs and expounds their functions in pathology and clinical practices in HNSCC. It also highlights their potential clinical applications as biomarkers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of HNSCC. However, studies on lncRNAs are still not comprehensive, and more investigations are needed in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic stroke is a destructive cerebrovascular disorder related to oxidative stress; NOX2 is a major source for ROS production; and miR-126a-5p is involved in several diseases, such as abdominal aortic aneurysm. We investigated the role of miR-126a-5p in regulating NOX2 in ischemic stroke. METHODS MiR-126a-5p and NOX2 were examined in the brains of rats subjected to cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) by RT-PCR and Western blot. MiR-126a-5p agomir was delivered to examine the effects of miR-126a-5p on I/R injury. The neurological deficit, infarct volume, and brain water content were evaluated. NOX activity, ROS production, and MDA and SOD levels were detected to assess oxidative stress. H&E staining was used to examine cell state. Apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL, caspase-3 activity, and cleaved-caspase-3 protein level. The relationship between miR-126a-5p and NOX2 was analyzed by bioinformatics and luciferase reporter assay. MiR-126a-5p mimic, miR-126a-5p inhibitor, or pcDNA-NOX2 were transfected in SH-SY5Y cells to further assess the effects of miR-126a-5p on OGD/R-induced cells injury. RESULTS NOX2 was upregulated and miR-126a-5p was down-regulated in the brains of I/R rats. MiR-126a-5p agomir obviously reduced the neurological deficit, infarct volume, brain water content, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in I/R rats. MiR-126a-5p targeted NOX2 directly and regulated NOX2 negatively. Moreover, miR-126a-5p mimic elevated cell viability and inhibited oxidative stress and apoptosis in OGD/R-treated SH-SY5Y cells, while miR-126a-5p inhibitor had the opposite effects. NOX2 overexpression antagonized the protective effects of miR-126a-5p mimic on OGD/R-induced cell injury. CONCLUSION MiR-126a-5p is a novel potential target for ischemic stroke therapy due to its protection against cerebral I/R injury via directly targeting NOX2.

Abstract
Exosomes, a subgroup of extracellular vesicles, are important mediators of long-distance intercellular communication and are involved in a diverse range of biological processes such as the transport of lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Researchers, seeing the problems caused by the toxic effects and clearance of synthetic nanoparticles, consider exosomes as an interesting alternative to such nanoparticles in the specific and controlled transport of drugs. In recent years, there have been remarkable advances in the use of exosomes in cancer therapeutics or for treating neurological diseases, among other applications. The objective of this work is to analyze studies focused on exosomes used in drug delivery system, present and future applications in this field of research are discussed based on the results obtained.

Abstract
Eph receptors and their ephrin ligands are important guidance molecules during neurological and vascular development. In recent years, it has become clear that the Eph protein family remains functional in adult physiology. A subset of Ephs and ephrins is highly expressed by endothelial cells. As endothelial cells form the first barrier between the blood and surrounding tissues, maintenance of a healthy endothelium is crucial for tissue homeostasis. This review gives an overview of the current insights of the role of ephrin ligands and receptors in endothelial function and leukocyte recruitment in the (patho)physiology of adult vascular biology.

Abstract
Backgrounds/aims Mesenchymal stromal cell-derived exosomes (MSC-EXs) could exert protective effects on recipient cells by transferring the contained microRNAs (miRs), and miR-132-3p is one of angiogenic miRs. However, whether the combination of MSC-EXs and miR-132-3p has better effects in ischemic cerebrovascular disease remains unknown. Methods Mouse MSCs transfected with scrambler control or miR-132-3p mimics were used to generate MSC-EXs and miR-132-3p-overexpressed MSC-EXs (MSC-EXsmiR-132-3p). The effects of EXs on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-injured ECs in ROS generation, apoptosis, and barrier function were analyzed. The levels of RASA1, Ras, phosphorylations of PI3K, Akt and endothelial nitric oxide synthesis (eNOS), and tight junction proteins (Claudin-5 and ZO-1) were measured. Ras and PI3K inhibitors were used for pathway analysis. In transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) mouse model, the effects of MSC-EXs on the cerebral vascular ROS production and apoptosis, cerebral vascular density (cMVD), Evans blue extravasation, brain water content, neurological deficit score (NDS), and infarct volume were determined. Results MSC-EXs could deliver their carried miR-132-3p into target ECs, which functionally downregulated the target protein RASA1, while upregulated the expression of Ras and the downstream PI3K phosphorylation. Compared to MSC-EXs, MSC-EXsmiR-132-3p were more effective in decreasing ROS production, apoptosis, and tight junction disruption in H/R-injured ECs. These effects were associated with increased levels of phosphorylated Akt and eNOS, which could be abolished by PI3K inhibitor (LY294002) or Ras inhibitor (NSC 23766). In the tMCAO mouse model, the infusion of MSC-EXsmiR-132-3p was more effective than MSC-EXs in reducing cerebral vascular ROS production, BBB dysfunction, and brain injury. Conclusion Our results suggest that miR-132-3p promotes the beneficial effects of MSC-EXs on brain ischemic injury through protecting cerebral EC functions.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane bound vesicles released into the extracellular environment by eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. EVs are enriched in active biomolecules and they can horizontally transfer cargo to recipient cells. In recent years EVs have demonstrated promising clinical applications due to their theragnostic potential. Although EVs have promising therapeutic potential, there are several challenges associated with using EVs before transition from the laboratory to clinical use. Some of these challenges include issues around low yield, isolation and purification methodologies, and efficient engineering (loading) of EVs with therapeutic cargo. Also, to achieve higher therapeutic efficiency, EV architecture and cargo may need to be manipulated prior to clinical application. Some of these issues have been addressed by developing biomimetic EVs. EV mimetic-nanovesicles (M-NVs) are a type of artificial EVs which can be generated from all cell types with comparable characteristics as EVs for an alternative therapeutic modality. In this review, we will discuss current techniques for modifying EVs and methodology used to generate and customize EV mimetic-nanovesicles.

Maternal Diet-Induced Obesity Compromises Oxidative Stress Status and Angiogenesis in the Porcine Placenta by Upregulating Nox2 Expression. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2019; 2019:2481592.

Abstract
Maternal obesity is associated with placental oxidative stress. However, the mechanism underlying this association remains poorly understood. In the present study, a gilt obesity model was developed by exposure to different energy diets and used to investigate the role of NADPH oxidase 2 (Nox2) in the placenta. Specifically, 99 gilts (Guangdong Small-ear Spotted pig) at day 60 of gestation were randomly assigned to one of the following three treatments: low-energy group (L, DE = 11.50 MJ/kg), medium-energy group (M, DE = 12.41 MJ/kg), and high-energy group (H, DE = 13.42 MJ/kg), with 11 replicate pens per treatment and 3 gilts per pen. At the start of the study, maternal body weight and backfat thickness were not significantly different in the three treatments. After the study, data indicated that the H group had higher body weight and backfat thickness gain for gilts during gestation and lower piglet birth weight compared with the other two groups. Additionally, the H group showed glucolipid metabolic disorders and increased triglyceride and nonesterified fatty acid contents in the placenta of gilts. Compared with the L group, the H group exhibited lower mitochondrial biogenesis and increased oxidative damage in the placenta. Importantly, increased mRNA expression and protein abundance of Nox2 were observed for the first time in H group placentae. Furthermore, compared with the L group, the H group showed a decrease in the density of placental vessels and the protein levels of vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), and phosphorylation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (p-VEGFR2) as well as the immunostaining intensity of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD31). Our findings suggest that maternal high-energy diet-induced obesity increases placental oxidative stress and decreases placental angiogenesis possibly through the upregulation of Nox2.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS), which includes several clinical components such as abdominal obesity, insulin resistance (IR), dyslipidemia, microalbuminuria, hypertension, proinflammatory state, and oxidative stress (OS), has become a global epidemic health issue contributing to a high risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In recent years, microRNAs (miRNAs), used as noninvasive biomarkers for diagnosis and therapy, have aroused global interest in complex processes in health and diseases, including MetS and its components. MiRNAs can exist stably in serum, liver, skeletal muscle (SM), heart muscle, adipose tissue (AT), and βcells, because of their ability to escape the digestion of RNase. Here we first present an overall review on recent findings of the relationship between miRNAs and several main components of MetS, such as IR, obesity, diabetes, lipid metabolism, hypertension, hyperuricemia, and stress, to illustrate the targeting proteins or relevant pathways that are involved in the progress of MetS and also help us find promising novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are heterogeneous, nano-sized vesicles that are shed into the blood and other body fluids, which disperse a variety of bioactive molecules (e.g., protein, mRNA, miRNA, DNA and lipids) to cellular targets over long and short distances. EVs are thought to be produced by nearly every cell type, however this review will focus specifically on EVs that originate from cells at the interface of CNS barriers. Highlighted topics include, EV biogenesis, the production of EVs in response to neuroinflammation, role in intercellular communication and their utility as a therapeutic platform. In this review, novel concepts regarding the use of EVs as biomarkers for BBB status and as facilitators for immune neuroinvasion are also discussed. Future directions and prospective are covered along with important unanswered questions in the field of CNS endothelial EV biology.

Abstract
Vascular calcification (VC) is caused by hydroxyapatite deposition in the intimal and medial layers of the vascular wall, leading to severe cardiovascular events in patients with hypertension, chronic kidney disease and diabetes mellitus. VC occurrences involve complicated mechanism networks, such as matrix vesicles or exosomes production, osteogenic differentiation, reduced cell viability, aging and so on. However, with present therapeutic methods targeting at VC ineffectively, novel targets for VC treatment are demanded. Exosomes are proven to participate in VC and function as initializers for mineral deposition. Secreted exosomes loaded with microRNAs are also demonstrated to modulate VC procession in recipient vascular smooth muscle cells. In this review, we targeted at the roles of exosomes during VC, especially at their effects on transporting biological information among cells. Moreover, we will discuss the potential mechanisms of exosomes in VC.

Abstract
Recent evidence has suggested that extracellular microRNAs have crucial roles in intercellular communications and are promising as minimally invasive biomarkers for various diseases including cancers. Oxidative stress also plays an essential role in homeostasis and disease development. This systematic review aims to clarify the current evidence on the interaction between oxidative stress and extracellular microRNAs. We identified 32 studies that provided information regarding the association between oxidative stress and extracellular microRNAs: 9 focused on the central nervous system, 11 focused on cardiovascular diseases, and 4 focused on liver injury. Endothelial cell-specific miR-126-3p was the most studied extracellular miRNA associated with oxidative stress. In addition, we highlight some reports that describe the mechanisms of how oxidative stress affects extracellular microRNA profiles in liver injury. In liver injury, the levels of miR-122-5p, miR-192-5p, miR-223-3p, and miR-1224-5p were reported to be elevated in the sera. The release of miR-122-5p, miR-192-5p, and miR-1224-5p from hepatocytes may be attributed to oxidative stress. miR-223-3p could be released from neutrophils and suppress oxidative stress in the liver. Elucidation of the mechanisms of the interaction between extracellular microRNAs and oxidative stress would improve our pathophysiological understanding as well as future medical practice.

Abstract
Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles that serve as mediators for intercellular communication through the delivery of cargo, including protein, lipids, nucleic acids or other cellular components, to neighboring or distant cells. Exosomal cargo may vary in response to different physiological or pathological conditions. The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) family has been widely accepted as a key mechanism in biogenesis and cargo sorting. On the other hand, accumulating evidence show that ESCRT-independent pathways exist. Due to the critical role of exosomes in intercellular communications in delivering cargo to recipient cells, exosomes have been investigated as a vector for the delivery of endogenous or exogenous cargo for therapeutic purposes. But the number of exosomes produced by cells is limited, which hampers their application. Synthetic exosome-mimics have been fabricated and investigated as a therapeutic tool for drug delivery. This review focuses on ESCRT-independent regulation of cargo loading into exosomes, including lipid raft and ceramide-mediated mechanisms, and reported exosomes or exosome-mimics with therapeutic effects.

Abstract
Exosomes are nanosized (30-100nm) membrane microvesicles secreted through a complex cellular process. Exosomes contain a variety of bioactive molecules, such as proteins, microRNAs(miRNAs or miRs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), playing an important role in the cell-to-cell substance transportation and signal transduction. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma-related exosomes (NPC-Exo) have been identified in circulating blood and contribute to tumor cell proliferation, angiopoiesis, and immune tolerance through remodeling of tumor microenvironment (TME). Nasopharyngeal carcinoma-related exosomes may also induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), thus promoting tumor metastasis and chemoradioresistance. Clinically, the exosomes may serve as novel biomarkers for diagnosis and targeted therapies of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. This review article updates the understanding of exosomes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are secreted membrane-enclosed nano-sized particles (40-1,000 nm) that deliver biological information between cells. The molecular composition of these subcellular particles includes growth factor receptors, ligands adhesion proteins, mRNA, miRNAs, lncRNA and lipids that are derived from donor cells. A number of studies demonstrated that stem cell-derived EVs are the key mediator of tissue repair and regeneration in multiple animal disease models. In addition, the composition of these particles is known to be altered in cancer and disease pathology suggesting them for useful in diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Their endogenous origin and biological properties offer benefits over conventional drug delivery systems (DDS), such as liposome, synthetic nanoparticles and prompted the further application of EVs as drug delivery vehicles for chemical drugs, genetic materials and proteins. The contents of EVs can be efficiently modified by chemical, biological or physical means. Thus, EVs can be an innovative DDS as it can overcome physical and biological barriers and safely deliver therapeutic drugs to target tissues. In this minireview, we summarized current progress on the strategies of drug loading onto EVs; ex vivo and in vivo loading.
