Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11040615. [PMID: 35453300 PMCID: PMC9029526 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11040615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2022] [Revised: 03/15/2022] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress mediates the effects of obesity on aggravating sepsis-induced lung injury. We investigated whether exosomes from human placenta choriodecidual membrane-derived mesenchymal stem cells (pcMSCs) can mitigate pulmonary ER stress, lung injury, and the mechanisms of inflammation, oxidation, and apoptosis in lipopolysaccharide-treated obese mice. Diet-induced obese (DIO) mice (adult male C57BL/6J mice fed with a 12-week high-fat diet) received lipopolysaccharide (10 mg/kg, i.p.; DIOLPS group) or lipopolysaccharide plus exosomes (1 × 108 particles/mouse, i.p.; DIOLPSExo group). Our data demonstrated lower levels of ER stress (upregulation of glucose-regulated protein 78, phosphorylated eukaryotic initiation factor 2α, and C/EBP homologous protein; p = 0.038, <0.001, and <0.001, respectively), inflammation (activation of nuclear factor-kB, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, macrophages, and NLR family pyrin domain containing 3; upregulation of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, and interleukin-6; p = 0.03, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, and <0.001, respectively), lipid peroxidation (p < 0.001), and apoptosis (DNA fragmentation, p = 0.003) in lung tissues, as well as lower lung injury level (decreases in tidal volume, peak inspiratory flow, and end expiratory volume; increases in resistance, injury score, and tissue water content; p < 0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, and =0.002, respectively) in the DIOLPSExo group than in the DIOLPS group. In conclusion, exosomes from human pcMSCs mitigate pulmonary ER stress, inflammation, oxidation, apoptosis, and lung injury in lipopolysaccharide-treated obese mice.

Astrocyte-derived exosomes protect hippocampal neurons after traumatic brain injury by suppressing mitochondrial oxidative stress and apoptosis. Aging (Albany NY) 2021; 13:21642-21658. [PMID: 34516406 PMCID: PMC8457605 DOI: 10.18632/aging.203508] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2021] [Accepted: 08/23/2021] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
In this study, we investigated the mechanisms through which astrocyte-derived exosomes (AS-Exos) alleviate traumatic brain injury (TBI)-induced neuronal defects in TBI model rats and mice. Treatment with AS-Exos alleviated neurobehavioral deficits, cognitive impairment, and brain edema in TBI rats. AS-Exos also significantly reduced neuronal cell loss and atrophy in the TBI rats. AS-Exos significantly reduced oxidative stress and mitochondrial H2O2 levels by increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in the hippocampal neurons of TBI rats. TUNEL-staining assays showed that AS-Exos significantly reduced TBI-induced neuronal apoptosis. Mechanistically, AS-Exos ameliorated oxidative stress by activating Nrf2/HO-1 signaling in the hippocampus of TBI rats. In addition, the neuroprotective effects of AS-Exos were abrogated in brain-specific Nrf2-knockout mice subjected to TBI. These findings demonstrate that AS-Exos protects against TBI-induced oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis by activating Nrf2 signaling in both rat and mouse models.
