Abstract
Exosomes exhibit high bioavailability, biological stability, targeted specificity, low toxicity, and low immunogenicity in shuttling various bioactive molecules such as proteins, lipids, RNA, and DNA. Natural exosomes, however, have limited production, targeting abilities, and therapeutic efficacy in clinical trials. On the other hand, engineered exosomes have demonstrated long-term circulation, high stability, targeted delivery, and efficient intracellular drug release, garnering significant attention. The engineered exosomes bring new insights into developing next-generation drug delivery systems and show enormous potential in therapeutic applications, such as tumor therapies, diabetes management, cardiovascular disease, and tissue regeneration and repair. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advancements associated with engineered exosomes by focusing on the state-of-the-art strategies for cell engineering and exosome engineering. Exosome isolation methods, including traditional and emerging approaches, are systematically compared along with advancements in characterization methods. Current challenges and future opportunities are further discussed in terms of the preparation and application of engineered exosomes.

[PMID: 38579591 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
Exosomes, as nanoscale extracellular vesicles (EVs), are secreted by all types of cells to facilitate intercellular communication in living organisms. After being taken up by neighboring or distant cells, exosomes can alter the expression levels of target genes in recipient cells and thereby affect their pathophysiological outcomes depending on payloads encapsulated therein. The functions and mechanisms of exosomes in cardiovascular diseases have attracted much attention in recent years and are thought to have cardioprotective and regenerative potential. This review summarizes the biogenesis and molecular contents of exosomes and details the roles played by exosomes released from various cells in the progression and recovery of cardiovascular disease. The review also discusses the current status of traditional exosomes in cardiovascular tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, pointing out several limitations in their application. It emphasizes that some of the existing emerging industrial or bioengineering technologies are promising to compensate for these shortcomings, and the combined application of exosomes and biomaterials provides an opportunity for mutual enhancement of their performance. The integration of exosome-based cell-free diagnostic and therapeutic options will contribute to the further development of cardiovascular regenerative medicine.

Abstract
From their humble discovery as cellular debris to cementing their natural capacity to transfer functional molecules between cells, the long-winded journey of extracellular vesicles (EVs) now stands at the precipice as a next-generation cell-free therapeutic tool to revolutionize modern-day medicine. This perspective provides a snapshot of the discovery of EVs to their emergence as a vibrant field of biology and the renaissance they usher in the field of biomedical sciences as therapeutic agents for cardiovascular pathologies. Rapid development of bioengineered EVs is providing innovative opportunities to overcome biological challenges of natural EVs such as potency, cargo loading and enhanced secretion, targeting and circulation half-life, localized and sustained delivery strategies, approaches to enhance systemic circulation, uptake and lysosomal escape, and logistical hurdles encompassing scalability, cost, and time. A multidisciplinary collaboration beyond the field of biology now extends to chemistry, physics, biomaterials, and nanotechnology, allowing rapid development of designer therapeutic EVs that are now entering late-stage human clinical trials.

Abstract
Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are known to be secreted by a vast majority of cells. These sEVs, specifically exosomes, induce specific cell-to-cell interactions and can activate signaling pathways in recipient cells through fusion or interaction. These nanovesicles possess several desirable properties, making them ideal for regenerative medicine and nanomedicine applications. These properties include exceptional stability, biocompatibility, wide biodistribution, and minimal immunogenicity. However, the practical utilization of sEVs, particularly in clinical settings and at a large scale, is hindered by the expensive procedures required for their isolation, limited circulation lifetime, and suboptimal targeting capacity. Despite these challenges, sEVs have demonstrated a remarkable ability to accommodate various cargoes and have found extensive applications in the biomedical sciences. To overcome the limitations of sEVs and broaden their potential applications, researchers should strive to deepen their understanding of current isolation, loading, and characterization techniques. Additionally, acquiring fundamental knowledge about sEVs origins and employing state-of-the-art methodologies in nanomedicine and regenerative medicine can expand the sEVs research scope. This review provides a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art exosome-based strategies in diverse nanomedicine domains, encompassing cancer therapy, immunotherapy, and biomarker applications. Furthermore, we emphasize the immense potential of exosomes in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Heart failure is a root cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Due to the limited regenerative capacity of the heart following myocardial injury, stem cell-based therapies have been considered a hopeful approach for improving cardiac regeneration. In recent years, different kinds of cell products have been investigated regarding their potential to treat patients with heart failure. Despite special attention to cell therapy and its products, therapeutic efficacy has been disappointing, and clinical application is not affordable. In the past few years, a subset of small extracellular vehicles (EVs), commonly known as "exosomes," was reported to grant regenerative and cardioprotective signals at a value similar to their donor cells. The conceptual advantage is that they may be ideally used without evoking a relevant recipient immune response or other adverse effects associated with viable cells. The evidence related to their beneficial effects in animal models of heart failure is rapidly growing. However, there is remarkable heterogeneity regarding source cells, isolation process, effective dosage, and delivery mode. This brief review will focus on the latest research and debates on regenerative potential and cardiac repair of exosomes from different sources, such as cardiac/non-cardiac stem, somatic cells, and progenitor cells. Overall, the current state of research on exosomes as an experimental therapy for heart diseases will be discussed.

Abstract
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy, characterized by the enlargement of cardiac muscle cells, leads to serious cardiac conditions and stands as a major global health issue. Exosomes, comprising small lipid bilayer vesicles, are produced by various cell types and found in numerous bodily fluids. They play a pivotal role in intercellular communication by transferring bioactive cargos to recipient cells or activating signaling pathways in target cells. Exosomes from cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and stem cells are key in regulating processes like cardiac hypertrophy, cardiomyocyte survival, apoptosis, fibrosis, and angiogenesis within the context of cardiovascular diseases. This review delves into exosomes' roles in pathological cardiac hypertrophy, first elucidating their impact on cell communication and signaling pathways. It then advances to discuss how exosomes affect key hypertrophic processes, including metabolism, fibrosis, oxidative stress, and angiogenesis. The review culminates by evaluating the potential of exosomes as biomarkers and their significance in targeted therapeutic strategies, thus emphasizing their critical role in the pathophysiology and management of cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
Congenital heart disease (CHD) represents a significant risk factor with profound implications for neonatal survival rates and the overall well-being of adult patients. The emergence of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and their derived cells, combined with CRISPR technology, high-throughput experimental techniques, and organoid technology, which are better suited to contemporary research demands, offer new possibilities for treating CHD. Prior investigations have indicated that the paracrine effect of exosomes may hold potential solutions for therapeutic intervention. This review provides a summary of the advancements in iPSC-based models and clinical trials associated with CHD while elucidating potential therapeutic mechanisms and delineating clinical constraints pertinent to iPSC-based therapy, thereby offering valuable insights for further deliberation.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) and its associated poor prognosis pose significant risks to human health. Nanomaterials hold great potential for the treatment of MI due to their targeted and controlled release properties, particularly biomimetic nanomaterials. The utilization of biomimetic strategies based on extracellular vesicles (EVs) and cell membranes will serve as the guiding principle for the development of nanomaterial therapy in the future. In this review, we present an overview of research progress on various exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells, cardiomyocytes, or induced pluripotent stem cells in the context of myocardial infarction (MI) therapy. These exosomes, utilized as cell-free therapies, have demonstrated the ability to enhance the efficacy of reducing the size of the infarcted area and preventing ischaemic reperfusion through mechanisms such as oxidative stress reduction, polarization modulation, fibrosis inhibition, and angiogenesis promotion. Moreover, EVs can exert cardioprotective effects by encapsulating therapeutic agents and can be engineered to specifically target the infarcted myocardium. Furthermore, we discuss the use of cell membranes derived from erythrocytes, stem cells, immune cells and platelets to encapsulate nanomaterials. This approach allows the nanomaterials to camouflage themselves as endogenous substances targeting the region affected by MI, thereby minimizing toxicity and improving biocompatibility. In conclusion, biomimetic nano-delivery systems hold promise as a potentially beneficial technology for MI treatment. This review serves as a valuable reference for the application of biomimetic nanomaterials in MI therapy and aims to expedite the translation of NPs-based MI therapeutic strategies into practical clinical applications.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is an end-stage of many cardiac diseases and one of the main causes of death worldwide. The current management of this disease remains suboptimal. The adult mammalian heart was considered a post-mitotic organ. However, several reports suggest that it may possess modest regenerative potential. Adult cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs), the main players in the cardiac regeneration, constitute, as it may seem, a heterogenous group of cells, which remain quiescent in physiological conditions and become activated after an injury, contributing to cardiomyocytes renewal. They can mediate their beneficial effects through direct differentiation into cardiac cells and activation of resident stem cells but majorly do so through paracrine release of factors. CPCs can secrete cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors as well as exosomes, rich in proteins, lipids and non-coding RNAs, such as miRNAs and YRNAs, which contribute to reparation of myocardium by promoting angiogenesis, cardioprotection, cardiomyogenesis, anti-fibrotic activity, and by immune modulation. Preclinical studies assessing cardiac progenitor cells and cardiac progenitor cells-derived exosomes on damaged myocardium show that administration of cardiac progenitor cells-derived exosomes can mimic effects of cell transplantation. Exosomes may become new promising therapeutic strategy for heart regeneration nevertheless there are still several limitations as to their use in the clinic. Key questions regarding their dosage, safety, specificity, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and route of administration remain outstanding. There are still gaps in the knowledge on basic biology of exosomes and filling them will bring as closer to translation into clinic.

Abstract
Cell therapies involving c-kit+ progenitor cells (CPCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been actively studied for cardiac repair. The benefits of such therapies have more recently been attributed to the release of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) from the parent cells. These sEVs are 30-180 nm vesicles containing protein/nucleic acid cargo encapsulated within an amphiphilic bilayer membrane. Despite their pro-reparative effects, sEV composition and cargo loading is highly variable, making it challenging to develop robust therapies with sEVs. Synthetic alternatives have been developed to allow cargo modulation, including prior work from the laboratory, to design sEV-like vehicles (ELVs). ELVs are synthesized from the sEV membrane but allow controlled cargo loading. It is previously shown that loading pro-angiogenic miR-126 into CPC-derived ELVs significantly increases endothelial cell angiogenesis compared to CPC-sEVs alone. Here, they expand on this work to design MSC-derived ELVs and study the role of the parent cell type on ELV composition and function. It is found that ELV origin does affect the ELV potency and that ELV membrane composition can affect outcomes. This study showcases the versatility of ELVs to be synthesized from different parent cells and highlights the importance of selecting ELV source cells based on the desired functional outcomes.

Int J Nanomedicine 2024; 19:2005-2024. [PMID: 38469055 PMCID: PMC10926597 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s441307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-exo) have been considered as a promising cell-free therapeutic strategy for ischemic heart disease. Cardioprotective drug pretreatment could be an effective approach to improve the efficacy of MSC-exo. Nicorandil has long been used in clinical practice for cardioprotection. This study aimed to investigate whether the effects of exosomes derived from nicorandil pretreated MSC (MSCNIC-exo) could be enhanced in facilitating cardiac repair after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods MSCNIC-exo and MSC-exo were collected and injected into the border zone of infarcted hearts 30 minutes after coronary ligation in rats. Macrophage polarization was detected 3 days post-infarction, cardiac function as well as histological pathology were measured on the 28th day after AMI. Macrophages were separated from the bone marrow of rats for in vitro model. Exosomal miRNA sequencing was conducted to identify differentially expressed miRNAs between MSCNIC-exo and MSC-exo. MiRNA mimics and inhibitors were transfected to MSCs or macrophages to explore the specific mechanism. Results Compared to MSC-exo, MSCNIC-exo showed superior therapeutic effects on cardiac functional and structural recovery after AMI and markedly elevated the ratio of CD68+ CD206+/ CD68+cells in infarcted hearts 3 days post-infarction. The notable ability of MSCNIC-exo to promote macrophage M2 polarization was also confirmed in vitro. Exosomal miRNA sequencing and both in vivo and in vitro experiments identified and verified that miR-125a-5p was an effector of the roles of MSCNIC-exo in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, we found miR-125a-5p promoted macrophage M2 polarization by inhibiting TRAF6/IRF5 signaling pathway. Conclusion This study suggested that MSCNIC-exo could markedly facilitate cardiac repair post-infarction by promoting macrophage M2 polarization by upregulating miR-125a-5p targeting TRAF6/IRF5 signaling pathway, which has great potential for clinical translation.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy, a formidable cardiovascular complication linked to diabetes, is witnessing a relentless surge in its incidence. Despite extensive research efforts, the primary pathogenic mechanisms underlying this condition remain elusive. Consequently, a critical research imperative lies in identifying a sensitive and dependable marker for early diagnosis and treatment, thereby mitigating the onset and progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Exosomes (EXOs), minute vesicles enclosed within bilayer lipid membranes, have emerged as a fascinating frontier in this quest, capable of transporting a diverse cargo that mirrors the physiological and pathological states of their parent cells. These exosomes play an active role in the intercellular communication network of the cardiovascular system. Within the realm of exosomes, MicroRNA (miRNA) stands as a pivotal molecular player, revealing its profound influence on the progression of DCM. This comprehensive review aims to offer an introductory exploration of exosome structure and function, followed by a detailed examination of the intricate role played by exosome-associated miRNA in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Our ultimate objective is to bolster our comprehension of DCM diagnosis and treatment strategies, thereby facilitating timely intervention and improved outcomes.

Abstract
Exosomes are nano-sized membrane vesicles that transfer bioactive molecules between cells and modulate various biological processes under physiological and pathological conditions. By applying bioengineering technologies, exosomes can be modified to express specific markers or carry therapeutic cargo and emerge as novel platforms for the treatment of cancer, neurological, cardiovascular, immune, and infectious diseases. However, there are many challenges and uncertainties in the clinical translation of exosomes. This review aims to provide an overview of the recent advances and challenges in the translation of engineered exosomes, with a special focus on the methods and strategies for loading drugs into exosomes, the pros and cons of different loading methods, and the optimization of exosome production based on the drugs to be encapsulated. Moreover, we also summarize the current clinical applications and prospects of engineered exosomes, as well as the potential risks and limitations that need to be addressed in exosome engineering, including the standardization of exosome preparation and engineering protocols, the quality and quantity of exosomes, the control of drug release, and the immunogenicity and cytotoxicity of exosomes. Overall, engineered exosomes represent an exciting frontier in nanomedicine, but they still face challenges in large-scale production, the maintenance of storage stability, and clinical translation. With continuous advances in this field, exosome-based drug formulation could offer great promise for the targeted treatment of human diseases.

Abstract
Microvesicles known as exosomes have a diameter of 40 to 160 nm and are derived from small endosomal membranes. Exosomes have attracted increasing attention over the past ten years in part because they are functional vehicles that can deliver a variety of lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids to the target cells they encounter. Because of this function, exosomes may be used for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of many diseases. All throughout the world, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) continue to be a significant cause of death. Because exosomes are mediators of communication between cells, which contribute to many physiological and pathological aspects, they may aid in improving CVD therapies as biomarkers for diagnosing and predicting CVDs. Many studies demonstrated that exosomes are associated with CVDs, such as coronary artery disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy and atrial fibrillation. Exosomes participate in the progression or inhibition of these diseases mainly through the contents they deliver. However, the application of exosomes in diferent CVDs is not very mature. So further research is needed in this field.

Abstract
Exosomes, as potent intercellular communication tools, have garnered significant attention due to their unique cargo-carrying capabilities, which enable them to influence diverse physiological and pathological functions. Extensive research has illuminated the biogenesis, secretion, and functions of exosomes. These vesicles are secreted by cells in different states, exerting either protective or harmful biological functions. Emerging evidence highlights their role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) by mediating comprehensive interactions among diverse cell types. This review delves into the significant impacts of exosomes on CVD under stress and disease conditions, including coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial infarction, heart failure, and other cardiomyopathies. Focusing on the cellular signaling and mechanisms, we explore how exosomes mediate multifaceted interactions, particularly contributing to endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in CVD pathogenesis. Additionally, exosomes show great promise as biomarkers, reflecting differential expressions of NcRNAs (miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs), and as therapeutic carriers for targeted CVD treatment. However, the specific regulatory mechanisms governing exosomes in CVD remain incomplete, necessitating further exploration of their characteristics and roles in various CVD-related contexts. This comprehensive review aims to provide novel insights into the biological implications of exosomes in CVD and offer innovative perspectives on the diagnosis and treatment of CVD.

Abstract
Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are promising for cell-based cardiac repair after myocardial infarction. These sEVs encapsulate potent cargo, including microRNAs (miRs), within a bilayer membrane that aids sEV uptake when administered to cells. However, despite their efficacy, sEV therapies are limited by inconsistencies in the sEV release from parent cells and variability in cargo encapsulation. Synthetic sEV mimics with artificial bilayer membranes allow for cargo control but suffer poor stability and rapid clearance when administered in vivo. Here, we developed an sEV-like vehicle (ELV) using an electroporation technique, building upon our previously published work, and investigated the potency of delivering electroporated ELVs with pro-angiogenic miR-126 both in vitro and in vivo to a rat model of ischemia-reperfusion. We show that electroporated miR-126+ ELVs improve tube formation parameters when administered to 2D cultures of cardiac endothelial cells and improve both echocardiographic and histological parameters when delivered to a rat left ventricle after ischemia reperfusion injury. This work emphasizes the value of using electroporated ELVs as vehicles for delivery of select miR cargo for cardiac repair.

Abstract
Cardiac-derived c-kit+ progenitor cells (CPCs) are under investigation in the CHILD phase I clinical trial (NCT03406884) for the treatment of hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). The therapeutic efficacy of CPCs can be attributed to the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs). To understand sources of cell therapy variability we took a machine learning approach: combining bulk CPC-derived EV (CPC-EV) RNA sequencing and cardiac-relevant in vitro experiments to build a predictive model. We isolated CPCs from cardiac biopsies of patients with congenital heart disease (n = 29) and the lead-in patients with HLHS in the CHILD trial (n = 5). We sequenced CPC-EVs, and measured EV inflammatory, fibrotic, angiogeneic, and migratory responses. Overall, CPC-EV RNAs involved in pro-reparative outcomes had a significant fit to cardiac development and signaling pathways. Using a model trained on previously collected CPC-EVs, we predicted in vitro outcomes for the CHILD clinical samples. Finally, CPC-EV angiogenic performance correlated to clinical improvements in right ventricle performance.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are widely recognized for their potential as drug delivery systems. EVs are membranous nanoparticles shed from cells. Among their natural features are their ability to shield cargo molecules against degradation and enable their functional internalization into target cells. Especially biological or bio-inspired large molecules (LMs), like nucleic acids, proteins, peptides, and others, may profit from encapsulation in EVs for drug delivery purposes. In the last years, a variety of loading protocols are explored for different LMs. The lack of standardization in the EV drug delivery field has impeded their comparability so far. Currently, the first reporting frameworks and workflows for EV drug loading are proposed. The aim of this review is to summarize these evolving standardization approaches and set recently developed methods into context. This will allow for enhanced comparability of future work on EV drug loading with LMs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The possible beneficial effects of stem cell-derived EV on ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in organ transplantation have been frequently investigated; however, the source of EV, as well as the methods of isolation and administration vary widely. We conducted a systematic review to summarize current pre-clinical evidence on stem cell-derived EV therapy for IRI of transplantable organs. METHODS PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched from inception until August 19th, 2022, for studies on stem cell-derived EV therapy for IRI after heart, kidney, liver, pancreas, lung and intestine transplantation. The Systematic Review Center for Laboratory animal Experiments (SYRCLE) guidelines were followed to assess potential risk of bias. RESULTS The search yielded 4153 unique articles, of which 96 were retained. We identified 32 studies on cardiac IRI, 38 studies on renal IRI, 21 studies on liver IRI, four studies on lung IRI and one study on intestinal IRI. Most studies used rodent models of transient ischemic injury followed by in situ reperfusion. In all studies, EV therapy was associated with improved outcome albeit to a variable degree. EV-therapy reduced organ injury and improved function while displaying anti-inflammatory-, immunomodulatory- and pro-regenerative properties. CONCLUSION A multitude of animal studies support the potential of stem cell-derived EV-therapy to alleviate IRI after solid organ transplantation but suffer from low reporting quality and wide methodological variability. Future studies should focus on determining optimal stem cell source, dosage, and timing of treatment, as well as long-term efficacy in transplant models.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are emerging mediators of intracellular and inter-organ communications in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), especially in the pathogenesis of heart failure through the transference of EV-containing bioactive substances. microRNAs (miRNAs) are contained in EV cargo and are involved in the progression of heart failure. Over the past several years, a growing body of evidence has suggested that the biogenesis of miRNAs and EVs is tightly regulated, and the sorting of miRNAs into EVs is highly selective and tightly controlled. Extracellular miRNAs, particularly circulating EV-miRNAs, have shown promising potential as prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers for heart failure and as therapeutic targets. In this review, we summarize the latest progress concerning the role of EV-miRNAs in HF and their application in a therapeutic strategy development for heart failure.

Abstract
Exosomes contain multiple bioactive molecules and maintain the connection between cells. Recent advances in exosome-based therapeutics have witnessed unprecedented opportunities in treating ophthalmic diseases, including traumatic diseases, autoimmune diseases, chorioretinal diseases and others. Utilization of exosomes as delivery vectors to encapsulate both drugs and therapeutic genes could yield higher efficacy and avoid the unnecessary immune responses. However, exosome-based therapies also come with some potential ocular risks. In this review, we first present a general introduction to exosomes. Then we provide an overview of available applications and discuss their potential risks. Moreover, we review recently reported exosomes as delivery vectors for ophthalmic diseases. Finally, we put forward future perspectives to grapple with its translation and underlying issues.

Abstract
Despite considerable improvement in diagnostic modalities and therapeutic options over the last few decades, the global burden of ischemic heart disease is steadily rising, remaining a major cause of death worldwide. Thus, new strategies are needed to lessen cardiovascular events. Researchers in different areas such as biotechnology and tissue engineering have developed novel therapeutic strategies such as stem cells, nanotechnology, and robotic surgery, among others (3D printing and drugs). In addition, advances in bioengineering have led to the emergence of new diagnostic and prognostic techniques, such as quantitative flow ratio (QFR), and biomarkers for atherosclerosis. In this review, we explore novel diagnostic invasive and noninvasive modalities that allow a more detailed characterization of coronary disease. We delve into new technological revascularization procedures and pharmacological agents that target several residual cardiovascular risks, including inflammatory, thrombotic, and metabolic pathways.

Abstract
microRNA-21 (miR-21) serves a multitude of functions at the molecular level through its regulation of messenger RNA. Previous research has sparked interest in the role of miR-21 as a potential therapeutic target in cardiovascular diseases. miR-21 expression contributes to the differentiation, proliferation, and maturation of many cell types, such as fibroblasts, endothelial cells, cardiomyocytes, and endothelial progenitor cells. The function of miR-21 depends upon its expression level in the specific cell types and downstream targets, which determine cell fate. Under pathological conditions, the expression level of miR-21 is altered, leading to abnormal gene regulation of downstream signaling and cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, atherosclerosis, and heart failure. Agomirs or antagomirs can be introduced into the respective tissue type to reverse or stop the progression of the disease. Exosomes in the extracellular vesicles, which mediate many cellular events with high biocompatibility, have a high potential of efficiently delivering miR-21 to their targeted cells. The critical role of miR-21 in cardiovascular disease (CVD) is indisputable, but there are controversial reports on the function of miR-21 in the same disease. This discrepancy sparks interest in better understanding the role of miR-21 in different tissues under different stages of various diseases and the mechanism of how miR-21 inhibitors work.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to identify the potential diagnostic biomarkers of coronary heart disease (CHD) from exosome-derived circRNA. Methods The microarray data of circRNA derived from the exosomes of patients with CHD and mRNA in acute myocardial infarction was retrieved from exoRBase website and GEO database (GSE61144), respectively, to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Our findings detected the differentially expressed circRNAs and mRNAs and predicted their correlation with microRNAs using the microRNA target prediction website, thus ascertaining the corresponding circ-microRNA and micro-mRNAs. Then, we performed systematic Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis on the differentially expressed mRNA. Protein-Protein Interactions (PPI) of these DEGs were examined using STRING. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to validate the diagnostic efficacy of circRNA in patients with CHD. Finally, the RNAs identified in this study were verified by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results A total of 85 differentially expressed circRNAs (4 up-regulated and 81 down-regulated) were identified by screening the circRNAs in exosome of CHD patients. Based on the prediction data of circRNA, mRNA, and the corresponding microRNA, a ceRNA network was constructed, including 7 circRNA nodes, 5 microRNA nodes, and 2 mRNA nodes. Finally, validated by qRT-PCR testing, we found circRNA0001785, circRNA0000973, circRNA0001741, and circRNA0003922 to be the promising candidate for the effective prediction of CHD. These potential diagnostic markers can provide insight for further research on the occurrence of CHD or even acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Abstract
Objective. Myocardial infarction is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Angiogenesis in the infarct border zone is vital for heart function restoration after myocardial infarction. Hypoxia-induced MSC modification is a safe and effective approach for angiogenesis in clinical therapy; however, the mechanism still requires further investigation. In our study, we preconditioned human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (huMSCs) with hypoxia and isolated the small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) to promote cardiac repair. We also investigated the potential mechanisms. Method. huMSCs were preconditioned with hypoxia (1% O2 and 5% CO2 at 37°C for 48 hours), and their sEVs were isolated using the Total Exosome Isolation reagent kit. To explore the role of miR-214 in MSC-derived sEVs, sEVs with low miR-214 expression were prepared by transfecting miR-214 inhibitor into huMSCs before hypoxia pretreatment. Scratch assays and tube formation assays were performed in sEVs cocultured with HUVECs to assess the proangiogenic capability of MSC-sEVs and MSChyp-sEVs. Rat myocardial infarction models were used to investigate the ability of miR-214-differentially expressed sEVs in cardiac repair. Echocardiography, Masson’s staining, and immunohistochemical staining for CD31 were performed to assess cardiac function, the ratio of myocardial fibrosis, and the capillary density after sEV implantation. The potential mechanism by which MSChyp-sEVs enhance angiogenesis was explored in vitro by RT–qPCR and western blotting. Results. Tube formation and scratch assays demonstrated that the proangiogenic capability of huMSC-derived sEVs was enhanced by hypoxia pretreatment. Echocardiography and Masson’s staining showed greater improvements in heart function and less ventricular remodeling after MSChyp-sEV transplantation. The angiogenic capability was reduced following miR-214 knockdown in MSChyp-sEVs. Furthermore, Sufu, a target of miR-214, was decreased, and hedgehog signaling was activated in HUVECs. Conclusion. We found that hypoxia induced miR-214 expression both in huMSCs and their sEVs. Transplantation of MSChyp-sEVs into a myocardial infarction model improved cardiac repair by increasing angiogenesis. Mechanistically, MSChyp-sEVs promote HUVEC tube formation and migration by transferring miR-214 into recipient cells, inhibiting Sufu expression, and activating the hedgehog pathway. Hypoxia-induced vesicle modification is a feasible way to restore heart function after myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Shuttling various bioactive substances across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) bidirectionally, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been opening new frontiers for the diagnosis and therapy of central nervous system (CNS) diseases. However, clinical translation of EV-based theranostics remains challenging due to difficulties in effective EV engineering for superior imaging/therapeutic potential, ultrasensitive EV detection for small sample volume, as well as scale-up and standardized EV production. In the past decade, continuous advancement in nanotechnology provided extensive concepts and strategies for EV engineering and analysis, which inspired the application of EVs for CNS diseases. Here we will review the existing types of EV-nanomaterial hybrid systems with improved diagnostic and therapeutic efficacy for CNS diseases. A summary of recent progress in the incorporation of nanomaterials and nanostructures in EV production, separation, and analysis will also be provided. Moreover, the convergence between nanotechnology and microfluidics for integrated EV engineering and liquid biopsy of CNS diseases will be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The identification in murine bone marrow (BM) of CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells, possessing several features of pluripotent stem cells, encouraged us to investigate if similar population of cells could be also isolated from the swine BM. Heart failure is the terminal stage of many cardiovascular diseases, and its key pathological basis is cardiac fibrosis (CF). Research showed that stem cell derived exosomes may play a critical role in cardiac fibrosis. The effect of exosomes (Exos) on CF has remained unclear. OBJECTIVE To establish an isolation and amplification method of CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells from newbron swine BM in vitro, explore an highly efficient method to enrich swine bone marrow derived CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells and probe into their biological characteristics further. Furher more, to extract exosomes from it and explore its effect on CF. METHODS The mononuclear cells isolated from swine bone marrow by red blood cell (RBC) lysing buffer were coated by adding FcR blocking solution and coupled with CD133 antibody immunomagnetic beads, obtaining CD133 + cell group via Magnetic Activated Cell Sorting (MACS). In steps, the CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells were collected by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) labeled with CD133, Lin and CD45 antibodies, which were cultured and amplified in vitro. The biological features of CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells were studied in different aspects, including morphological trait observed with inverted microscope, ultrastructural characteristics observed under transmission electron microscope, expression of pluripotent markersidentified by immunofluorescent staining and Alkaline phosphatase staining. The Exos were extracted using a sequential centrifugation approach and its effects on CF were analyzed in Angiotensin II (Ang-II) induced-cardiac fibrosis in vivo. Rats in each group were treated for 4 weeks, and 2D echocardiography was adopted to evaluate the heart function. The degree of cardiac fibrosis was assessed by Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) and Masson's trichrome staining. RESULTS The CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells accounted for about 0.2%-0.5% of the total mononuclear cells isolated from swine bone marrow. The combination of MACS and FACS to extract CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells could improved efficiency and reduced cell apoptosis. The CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells featured typical traits of pluripotent stem cells, the nucleus is large, mainly composed of euchromatin, with less cytoplasm and larger nucleoplasmic ratio, which expressed pluripotent markers (SSEA-1, Oct-4, Nanog and Sox-2) and alkaline phosphatase staining was positive.Animal experiment indicated that the cardiac injury related indexes (BNP、cTnI、CK-MB and TNF-α), the expression of key gene Smad3 and the degree of cardiac fibrosis in Exo treatment group were significantly reduced compared with the control group. 4 weeks after the treatment, cardiac ejection fraction (EF) value in the model group showed a remarkable decrease, indicating the induction of HF model. While Exo elevated the EF values, demonstrating cardio-protective effects. CONCLUSION The CD133 + /Lin-/CD45- cells derived from swine bone marrow were successfully isolated and amplified, laying a good foundation for further research on this promising therapeutic cell. The Exos may be a promising potential treatment strategy for CF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status and development trend of research on exosomes in cardiovascular disease (CVD) using bibliometric analysis and to elucidate trending research topics. METHODS Research articles on exosomes in CVD published up to April 2022 were retrieved from the Web of Science database. Data were organized using Microsoft Office Excel 2019. CiteSpace 6.1 and VOSviewer 1.6.18 were used for bibliometric analysis and result visualization. RESULTS Overall, 256 original research publications containing 190 fundamental research publications and 66 clinical research publications were included. "Extracellular vesicle" was the most frequent research keyword, followed by "microrna," "apoptosis," and "angiogenesis." Most publications were from China (187, 73.05%), followed by the United States (57, 22.27%), the United Kingdom (7, 2.73%), and Japan (7, 2.73%). A systematic review of the publications revealed that myocardial infarction and stroke were the most popular topics and that exosomes and their contents, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), play positive roles in neuroprotection, inhibition of autophagy and apoptosis, promotion of angiogenesis, and protection of cardiomyocytes. CONCLUSION Research on exosomes in CVD has attracted considerable attention, with China having the most published studies. Fundamental research has focused on CVD pathogenesis; exosomes regulate the progression of CVD through biological processes, such as the inflammatory response, autophagy, and apoptosis. Clinical research has focused on biomarkers for CVD; studies on using miRNAs in exosomes as disease markers for diagnosis could become a future trend.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EV) are small (100-1000 nm) particles that cells release into the extracellular space that have become increasingly famous for their potential in regenerative medicine and for their alterations in diseases such as cancer to promote disease progression, in particular for their potential for intercellular communication. However, studying EV can be challenging due to the broad diversity of both the EV themselves as well as the methods used to study them. This chapter aims to help investigators new to the EV field by describing challenges with studying EV, methods for enriching EV, and a simple EV enrichment protocol using differential ultracentrifugation.

Abstract
Cardiac diseases such as myocardial infarction and heart failure have been the leading cause of death worldwide for more than 20 years, and new treatments continue to be investigated. Heart transplantation, a curative treatment for severe cardiac dysfunction, is available to only a small number of patients due to the rarity of donors and high costs. Cardiac regenerative medicine using embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells is expected to be a new alternative to heart transplantation, but it has problems such as induction of immune response, tumor formation, and low survival rate of transplanted cells. On the other hand, there has been a focus on cell-free therapy using extracellular vesicles (EVs) due to their high biocompatibility and target specificity. Exosomes, one type of EV, play a role in the molecular transport system in vivo and can be considered a drug delivery system (DDS) innate to all living things. Exosomes contain nucleic acids and proteins, which are transported from secretory cells to recipient cells. Molecules in exosomes are encapsulated in a lipid bilayer, which allows them to exist stably in body fluids without being affected by nuclease degradation enzymes. Therefore, the therapeutic use of exosomes as DDSs has been widely explored and is being used in clinical trials and other clinical settings. This review summarizes the current topics of EVs as DDSs in cardiac disease.

Abstract
Exosomes, which contain miRNA, have been receiving growing attention in cardiovascular therapy because of their role in mediating cell-cell communication, autophagy, apoptosis, inflammation, and angiogenesis. Several studies have suggested that miRNA derived from exosomes can be used to detect myocardial infarctions (MI) in patients. Basic research also suggests that exosomes could serve as a potential therapeutic target for treating acute myocardial infarction. Ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury is associated with adverse cardiac events after acute MI. We aim to review the potential benefits and mechanisms of exosomes in treating MI and IR injury.

Abstract
AbstractBased on clinical observations, stroke is touted as one of the specific pathological conditions, affecting an individual’s life worldwide. So far, no effective treatment has been introduced to deal with stroke post-complications. Production and release of several neurotrophic factors by different cells exert positive effects on ischemic areas following stroke. As a correlate, basic and clinical studies have focused on the development and discovery of de novo modalities to introduce these factors timely and in appropriate doses into the affected areas. Exosomes (Exo) are non-sized vesicles released from many cells during pathological and physiological conditions and participate in intercellular communication. These particles transfer several arrays of signaling molecules, like several neurotrophic factors into the acceptor cells and induce specific signaling cascades in the favor of cell bioactivity. This review aimed to highlight the emerging role of exosomes as a therapeutic approach in the regeneration of ischemic areas.

Abstract
Insulin replacement is an available treatment for autoimmune type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). There are multiple limitations in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as T1DM by immunosuppression using drugs and chemicals. The advent of extracellular vesicle (EV)-based therapies for the treatment of various diseases has attracted much attention to the field of bio-nanomedicine. Tolerogenic nanoparticles can induce immune tolerance, especially in autoimmune diseases. EVs can deliver cargo to specific cells without restrictions. Accordingly, EVs can be used to deliver tolerogenic nanoparticles, including iron oxide-peptide-major histocompatibility complex, polyethylene glycol-silver-2-(1'H-indole-3'-carbonyl)-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester, and carboxylated poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles coupled with or encapsulating an antigen, to effectively treat autoimmune T1DM. The present work highlights the advances in exosome-based delivery of tolerogenic nanoparticles for the treatment of autoimmune T1DM.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Accumulating evidences have highlighted the importance of exosomes and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in cardiac physiology and pathology. It is in general consensus that exosomes and ncRNAs play a crucial role in the maintenance of normal cellular function; and interestingly it is envisaged that their potential as prospective therapeutic candidates and biomarkers are increasing rapidly. Considering all these aspects, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the recent understanding of exosomes and ncRNAs in CVDs. We provide a great deal of discussion regarding their role in the cardiovascular system, together with providing a glimpse of ideas regarding strategies exploited to harness their potential as a therapeutic intervention and prospective biomarker against CVDs. Thus, it could be envisaged that a thorough understanding of the intricacies related to exosomes and ncRNA would seemingly allow their full exploration and may lead clinical settings to become a reality in near future.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common sustained tachyarrhythmias worldwide, and its prevalence is positively correlated with aging. AF not only significantly reduces the quality of life of patients but also causes a series of complications, such as thromboembolism, stroke, and heart failure, increases the average number of hospitalizations of patients, and places a huge economic burden on patients and society. Traditional drug therapy and ablation have unsatisfactory success rates, high recurrence rates, and the risk of serious complications. Surgical treatment is highly traumatic. The nano drug delivery system has unique physical and chemical properties, and in the application of AF treatment, whether it is used to assist in enhancing the ablation effect or for targeted therapy, it provides a safer, more effective and more economical treatment strategy.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Despite recent advances in diagnosis and interventions, there is still a crucial need for new multifaceted therapeutics that can address the complicated pathophysiological mechanisms driving CVD. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanovesicles that are secreted by all types of cells to transport molecular cargo and regulate intracellular communication. EVs represent a growing field of nanotheranostics that can be leveraged as diagnostic biomarkers for the early detection of CVD and as targeted drug delivery vesicles to promote cardiovascular repair and recovery. Though a promising tool for CVD therapy, the clinical application of EVs is limited by the inherent challenges in EV isolation, standardization, and delivery. Hence, this review will present the therapeutic potential of EVs and introduce bioengineering strategies that augment their natural functions in CVD.

Abstract
The progression of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction leads to serious vascular injury, highlighting the urgent need for targeted regenerative therapy. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) composed of a lipid bilayer containing nuclear and cytosolic materials are relevant to the progression of cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, EVs can deliver bioactive cargo in pathological cardiovascular and regulate the biological function of recipient cells, such as inflammation, proliferation, angiogenesis and polarization. However, because the targeting and bioactivity of natural EVs are subject to several limitations, bioengineered EVs have achieved wide advancements in biomedicine. Bioengineered EVs involve three main ways to acquire including (i) modification of the EVs after isolation; (ii) modification of producer cells before EVs’ isolation; (iii) synthesize EVs using natural or modified cell membranes, and encapsulating drugs or bioactive molecules into EVs. In this review, we first summarize the cardiovascular injury-related disease and describe the role of different cells and EVs in vascular regeneration. We also discuss the application of bioengineered EVs from different producer cells to cardiovascular diseases. Finally, we summarize the surface modification on EVs which can specifically target abnormal cells in injured vascular.

Abstract
Cardiac remodeling is a pathophysiological process activated by diverse cardiac stress, which impairs cardiac function and leads to adverse clinical outcome. This remodeling partly attributes to cardiac fibrosis, which is a result of differentiation of cardiac fibroblasts to myofibroblasts and the production of excessive extracellular matrix within the myocardium. Non-coding RNAs mainly include microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs. These non-coding RNAs have been proved to have a profound impact on biological behaviors of various cardiac cell types and play a pivotal role in the development of cardiac fibrosis. This review aims to summarize the role of microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs in cardiac fibrosis associated with pressure overload, ischemia, diabetes mellitus, aging, atrial fibrillation and heart transplantation, meanwhile shed light on the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of non-coding RNAs for cardiac fibrosis.

Abstract
Background Prophylactic exercise improves clinical outcomes in patients experiencing severe ischemic diseases. Previous studies have shown that exercise could alter the amount or content of circulating exosomes. However, little is known about the role of precursory exercise-derived circulating exosomes (Exe-Exo) in ischemic diseases. We therefore aimed to explore the function and mechanism of Exe-Exo in endogenous revascularization and perfusion recovery in peripheral arterial disease. Methods and Results We first determined that 4 weeks of precursory treadmill exercise improved perfusion recovery on days 7, 14 and 21 after unilateral femoral artery ligation (FAL) but had no effect immediately after ligation. Then, local muscle delivery of Exe-Exo promotes arteriogenesis, angiogenesis and perfusion recovery, which could be abolished by GW4869, a well-recognized pharmacological agent inhibiting exosome release. This suggests that Exe-Exo mediated exercise-induced revascularization. In vitro, Exe-Exo enhanced endothelial cell proliferation, migration and tube formation. In addition, we identified miR-125a-5p as a novel exerkine through exosomal miRNA sequencing and RT-qPCR validation. Inhibition of miR-125a-5p abrogated the beneficial effects of Exe-Exo both in vivo and in vitro. Mechanistically, these exercise-afforded benefits were attributed to the exosomal miR-125a-5p downregulation of ECE1 expression and the subsequent activation of the AKT/eNOS downstream signaling pathway. Specifically, skeletal muscle may be a major tissue source of exercise-induced exosomal miR-125a-5p via fluorescence in situ hybridization. Conclusions Endogenous circulating exosomal miR-125a-5p promotes exercise-induced revascularization via targeting ECE1 and activating AKT/eNOS downstream signaling pathway. Identify exosomal miR-125a-5p as a novel exerkine, and highlight its potential therapeutic role in the prevention and treatment of peripheral arterial disease.

Abstract
Till date, cardiovascular diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality across the globe. Several commonly used treatment methods are unable to offer safety from future complications and longevity to the patients. Therefore, better and more effective treatment measures are needed. A potential cutting-edge technology comprises stem cell-derived exosomes. These nanobodies secreted by cells are intended to transfer molecular cargo to other cells for the establishment of intercellular communication and homeostasis. They carry DNA, RNA, lipids, and proteins; many of these molecules are of diagnostic and therapeutic potential. Several stem cell exosomal derivatives have been found to mimic the cardioprotective attributes of their parent stem cells, thus holding the potential to act analogous to stem cell therapies. Their translational value remains high as they have minimal immunogenicity, toxicity, and teratogenicity. The current review highlights the potential of various stem cell exosomes in cardiac repair, emphasizing the recent advancements made in the development of cell-free therapeutics, particularly as biomarkers and as carriers of therapeutic molecules. With the use of genetic engineering and biomimetics, the field of exosome research for heart treatment is expected to solve various theranostic requirements in the field paving its way to the clinics.

OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:8215842.

Abstract
Background Exosomes derived from cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) under hypoxia can mediate cardiac repair functions and alleviate pyroptosis and oxidative stress during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study is aimed at investigating the effect and mechanism of miR-27b-3p underlying hypoxic CMECs-derived exosomes against I/R injury. Methods CMECs were isolated from the left ventricle of Sprague-Dawley rats, followed by culturing under hypoxic conditions or pretreatment with the miR-27b-3p inhibitor. CMECs-derived exosomes were added into H9C2 cells before hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) or injected into the rat heart before I/R injury. An in vivo I/R injury model was established by ligating and releasing the left anterior descending coronary artery. Expression of pyroptosis-related factors was detected using Western blot, and heart infarcted size was determined by the 2,3,5-triphenyl-2H-tetrazpinolium chloride staining method. Dual-Luciferase Reporter assays were performed to analyze the interactions of nmiR-27b-3p-forkhead box O1 (Foxo1) and Gasdermin D- (GSDMD-) Foxo1. Chromatin-immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays were performed to validate the interactions between forkhead box O1 (Foxo1) and Gasdermin D (GSDMD) and Foxo1-mediated histone acetylation of GSDMD. Results CMECs were successfully identified from left ventricle of Sprague-Dawley rats. The expressions of Foxo1 and pyroptosis-related proteins (GSDMD, NLPR3, cleaved caspase 1, IL-1β, and IL-18) were upregulated in the rat heart after I/R injury. Treatment of CMEC-derived exosomes, especially that under hypoxic conditions, significantly reduced pyroptosis in the rat heart. miR-27b-3p was significantly upregulated in CMEC-derived exosomes under hypoxic conditions, and miR-27b-3p inhibition in exosomes alleviated its cytoprotection and inhibited oxidative stress in H9C2 cells. Treatment with Foxo1 overexpression plasmids aggravated in vitro H/R and in vivo I/R injury by upregulating pyroptosis-related proteins. Further experiments validated that miR-27b-3p negatively targeted Foxo1, which bound to the promoter region of GSDMD.

Abstract
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Diabetic heart disease (DHD) comprises coronary artery disease, heart failure, cardiac autonomic neuropathy, peripheral arterial disease, and diabetic cardiomyopathy. The onset and progression of DHD have been attributed to molecular alterations in response to hyperglycemia in diabetes. In this context, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been demonstrated to have a significant role in the development and progression of DHD. In addition to their effects on the host cells, miRNAs can be released into circulation after encapsulation within the exosomes. Exosomes are extracellular nanovesicles ranging from 30 to 180 nm in diameter secreted by all cell types. They carry diverse cargos that are altered in response to various conditions in their parent cells. Exosomal miRNAs have been extensively studied in recent years due to their role and therapeutic potential in DHD. This review will first provide an overview of exosomes, their biogenesis and function, followed by the role of exosomes in cardiovascular disease and then focuses on the known role of exosomes and associated miRNAs in DHD.

Impaired regulation of MMP2/16-MLCK3 by miR-146a-5p increased susceptibility to myocardial ischemic injury in aging mice. Cardiovasc Res 2022; 119:786-801. [PMID: 35727952 PMCID: PMC10153423 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvac104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2020] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Aging impairs cardiac function and increases susceptibility to myocardial ischemic injury. Cardiac myosin light chain kinase (MLCK3) phosphorylates cardiac myosin regulatory light chain (MLC2), controlling sarcomere organization and cardiomyocyte contraction. Dysregulation of MLCK3 and phosphorylated MLC2 (p-MLC2) contributes to heart failure after myocardial infarction (MI). We aimed at exploring how the MLCK3-p-MLC2 axis changes in aging hearts post MI and at investigating the underlying regulatory mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS We generated adult (3 months) and aged (30 months) MI mouse models to compare their cardiac performance, and then detected MLCK3 expression and MLC2 activity. Aging increased the size of MI-induced infarctions and promoted cardiac contractile dysfunction. Furthermore, MLCK3 expression and MLC2 activity increased in adult hearts after MI, but not in aged hearts. miR-146a was found consistently increased in adult and aged hearts post-MI. Mechanistic analyses performed in vitro demonstrated that miR-146a-5p downregulated matrix metalloprotease (MMP)2/16 expression in cardiomyocytes. This downregulation in turn increased MLCK3 expression and MLC2 activity. However, miR-146a-5p failed to regulate the MMP2/16-MLCK3-p-MLC2 axis in senescent cardiomyocytes or in cardiac miR-146a conditional knockout mice, with the latter experiencing an exacerbated deterioration of cardiac function post-MI. CONCLUSION These results suggest that increase of MLCK3 and p-MLC2 contents through decreasing MMP2/16 by miR-146a-5p represents a compensatory mechanism that can protect cardiac contractile function after MI. Aging impairs this miR-146a-5p-regulated MMP2/16-MLCK3-p-MLC2 contractile axis, leading to compromised contractile function and increased susceptibility to heart failure.

Abstract
Vascular age-related diseases describe a group of age-related chronic diseases that result in a considerable healthcare burden to society. Vascular aging includes structural changes and dysfunctions of endothelial cells (ECs) and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in blood vessels. Compared with conventional treatment for vascular age-related diseases, stem cell (SC) therapy elicits better anti-aging effects viathe inhibition/delay ECs and SMCs from entering senescence. Exosomal noncoding RNA (ncRNAs) in vascular aging and stem cell-derived exosomal microRNAs (SCEV-miRNAs), especially in mesenchymal stem cells, have an important role in the development of age-related diseases. This review summarizes SCEV-miRNAs of diverse origins that may play a vital role in treating subclinical and clinical stages of vascular age-related disorders. We further explored possible age-related pathways and molecular targets of SCEV-miRNA, which are associated with dysfunctions of ECs and SMCs in the senescent stage. Moreover, the perspectives and difficulties of SCEV-miRNA clinical translation are discussed. This review aims to provide greater understanding of the biology of vascular aging and to identify critical therapeutic targets for SCEV-miRNAs. Though still in its infancy, the potential value of SCEV-miRNAs for vascular age-related diseases is clear.

Abstract
The heart is the core organ of the circulatory system. Through the blood circulation system, it has close contact with all tissues and cells in the body. An exosome is an extracellular vesicle enclosed by a phospholipid bilayer. A variety of heart tissue cells can secrete and release exosomes, which transfer RNAs, lipids, proteins, and other biomolecules to adjacent or remote cells, mediate intercellular communication, and regulate the physiological and pathological activities of target cells. Cardiogenic exosomes play an important role in regulating almost all pathological and physiological processes of the heart. In addition, they can also reach distant tissues and organs through the peripheral circulation, exerting profound influence on their functional status. In this paper, the composition and function of cardiogenic exosomes, the factors affecting cardiogenic exosomes and their roles in cardiovascular physiology and pathophysiology are discussed, and the close relationship between cardiovascular system and motor system is innovatively explored from the perspective of exosomes. This study provides a reference for the development and application of exosomes in regenerative medicine and sports health, and also provides a new idea for revealing the close relationship between the heart and other organ systems.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) represents a fatal public threat. The involvement of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in CAD has been documented. This study explored the regulation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs)-derived EVs-hnRNPU-actin complex in human coronary artery endothelial cell (HCAEC) growth. Firstly, in vitro HCAEC hypoxia models were established. EVs were extracted from ESCs by ultracentrifugation. HCAECs were treated with EVs and si-VEGF for 24 h under hypoxia, followed by assessment of cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and tube formation. Uptake of EVs by HCAECs was testified. Additionally, hnRNPU, VEGF, and RNA Pol II levels were determined using Western blotting and CHIP assays. Interaction between hnRNPU and actin was evaluated by Co-immunoprecipitation assay. HCAEC viability and proliferation were lowered, apoptosis was enhanced, wound fusion was decreased, and the number of tubular capillary structures was reduced under hypoxia, whereas ESC-EVs treatment counteracted these effects. Moreover, EVs transferred hnRNPU into HCAECs. EVs-hnRNPU-actin complex increased RNA Pol II level on the VEGF gene promoter and promoted VEGF expression in HCAECs. Inhibition of hnRNPU or VEGF both annulled the promotion of EVs on HCAEC growth. Collectively, ESC-EVs-hnRNPU-actin increased RNA Pol II phosphorylation and VEGF expression, thus promoting HCAEC growth.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Current pharmacological interventions for the CVDs suffer from low bioavailability, low retention rate, poor targeting, drug resistance complicated side effects. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), which are lipid vesicles secreted by cells, play key roles in pathological processes of CVDs. Engineered EVs and EV mimics with superior properties can overcome limitations of traditional medicine, thus emerging as alternative therapeutic options for the CVDs. In this Review, we summarized basic concepts of EVs and EV mimics, highlighted engineering strategies, and lastly discussed applications of engineered EVs and EV mimics against the CVDs. We believe this Review can provide some new insights on engineering EVs and EV mimics and facilitate their application in precise control of CVDs.

Abstract
Stem/progenitor cells, including cardiac-derived c-kit+ progenitor cells (CPCs), are under clinical evaluation for treatment of cardiac disease. Therapeutic efficacy of cardiac cell therapy can be attributed to paracrine signaling and the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) carrying diverse cargo molecules. Despite some successes and demonstrated safety, large variation in cell populations and preclinical/clinical outcomes remains a problem. Here, we investigated this variability by sequencing coding and non-coding RNAs of CPCs and CPC-EVs from 30 congenital heart disease patients and used machine learning methods to determine potential mechanistic insights. CPCs retained RNAs related to extracellular matrix organization and exported RNAs related to various signaling pathways to CPC-EVs. CPC-EVs are enriched in miRNA clusters related to cell proliferation and angiogenesis. With network analyses, we identified differences in non-coding RNAs which give insight into age-dependent functionality of CPCs. By taking a quantitative computational approach, we aimed to uncover sources of CPC cell therapy variability.

Abstract
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles that are secreted by almost all types of cells and exist in almost all extracellular spaces. As an important mediator of intercellular communication, exosomes encapsulate the miRNA, lncRNA, cirRNA, mRNA, cytokine, enzyme, lipid, and other components from the cytoplasm into its closed single membrane structure and transfer them to recipient units in an autocrine, paracrine, or endocrine manner. Hypoxia is a state of low oxygen tension and is involved in many pathological processes. Hypoxia influences the size, quantity, and expression of exosome cargos. Exosomes derived from hypoxic tumor cells transfer genetics, proteins, and lipids to the recipient units to exert pleiotropic effects. Different donor cells produce different cargo contents, target different recipient units and lead to different biological effects. Hypoxic exosomes derived from tumor cells uptaken by normoxic tumor cells lead to promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion; uptaken by extracellular space or liver lead to promoted metastasis; uptaken by endothelial cells lead to promoted angiogenesis; uptaken by immune cells lead to promoted macrophage polarization and changed tumor immune microenvironment. In addition to various types of tumors, hypoxic exosomes also participate in the development of diseases in the cardiovascular system, neuron system, respiratory system, hematology system, endocrine system, urinary system, reproduction system, and skeletomuscular system. Understanding the special characteristics of hypoxic exosomes provide new insight into elaborating the pathogenesis of hypoxia related disease. This review summarizes hypoxia induced cargo changes and the biological effects of hypoxic exosomes in tumors and non-malignant diseases in different systems.

Abstract
Exosomes are a type of small Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) and play crucial roles in cancer and other diseases. Exosomes role in various diseases has been studied as they regulate intercellular communication and are obtained from almost any part of the body. Exosomes use is complicated in diseases as they promote pathogenesis but also act as a very good therapeutic agent in most diseases. The presence of a complex molecular cargo consisting of nucleic acids (DNA, RNA, miRNA, siRNA, etc.,) makes it a very good delivery agent and acts as a biomarker for many cancers, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. They can be used to selectively target cells and activate immune cell responses depending on the source obtained. Exosomes based immunotherapy is an area of gaining importance due to the proteins present in them and their specificity to the targeted cells. The role of exosomes in the diagnosis and treatment of non-infectious diseases is discussed in detail in this article.
