Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Huntington's disease (HD), stroke, and aneurysms, are characterized by the abnormal accumulation and aggregation of disease-causing proteins in the brain and spinal cord. Recent research suggests that proteins linked to these conditions can be secreted and transferred among cells using exosomes. The transmission of abnormal protein buildup and the gradual degeneration in the brains of impacted individuals might be supported by these exosomes. Furthermore, it has been reported that neuroprotective functions can also be attributed to exosomes in neurodegenerative diseases. The potential neuroprotective functions may play a role in preventing the formation of aggregates and abnormal accumulation of proteins associated with the disease. The present review summarizes the roles of exosomes in neurodegenerative diseases as well as elucidating their therapeutic potential in AD, PD, ALS, HD, stroke, and aneurysms. By elucidating these two aspects of exosomes, valuable insights into potential therapeutic targets for treating neurodegenerative diseases may be provided.

Extracellular vesicles derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells alleviate neurological deficit and endothelial cell dysfunction after subarachnoid hemorrhage via the KLF3-AS1/miR-83-5p/TCF7L2 axis. Exp Neurol 2022; 356:114151. [PMID: 35738418 DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2022.114151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2021] [Revised: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND New data are accumulating on the effects of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) in cerebrovascular diseases. We explored the potential role of KLF3-AS1-containing bone marrow MSC-EVs (BMSC-EVs) in a rat model of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). METHODS A rat model of SAH was established by endovascular perforation method, into which KLF3-AS1-containing EVs from BMSCs or miR-183-5p mimic were injected. Further, brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) were induced by oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb) to simulate in vitro setting, which were co-cultured with KLF3-AS1-containing EVs from BMSCs. Effects of KLF3-AS1 on neurological deficits in vivo and endothelial cell dysfunction in vitro were investigated. We also performed bioinformatics analysis to predict downstream factors miR-183-5p and TCF7L2, which were verified by RIP, RNA pull-down and luciferase activity assays. RESULTS BMSC-EVs was demonstrated to alleviate neurological deficits in SAH rats and endothelial cell dysfunction in OxyHb-induced BMECs. In addition, BMSC-EVs were shown to deliver KLF3-AS1 to BMECs, where KLF3-AS1 bound to miR-183-5p and miR-183-5p targeted TCF7L2. In vivo results confirmed that BMSC-EVs regulated the KLF3-AS1/miR-183-5p/TCF7L2 signaling axis to attenuate neurological deficit and endothelial dysfunction after SAH. CONCLUSION Overall, KLF3-AS1 delivered by BMSC-EVs upregulate TCF7L2 expression by binding to miR-138-5p, thus attenuating neurological deficits and endothelial dysfunction after SAH.
