Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles exert pro-angiogenic and pro-lymphangiogenic effects in ischemic tissues by transferring various microRNAs and proteins including ITGa5 and NRP1

Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells/stromal cells (MSCs)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate pro-regenerative effects in damaged ischemic tissues by regulating angiogenesis. MSCs-EVs modulate functions of cells including endogenous mature cells, progenitors and stem cells, resulting in restorat...

description Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells/stromal cells (MSCs)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate pro-regenerative effects in damaged ischemic tissues by regulating angiogenesis. MSCs-EVs modulate functions of cells including endogenous mature cells, progenitors and stem cells, resulting in restoration of blood flow. However, the mechanisms underlying such MSC-EV activity still remain poorly understood. The present study analyzes biological effects of bone marrow (BM) MSC-EVs on endothelial cells (ECs) in ischemic tissues both in in vitro and in vivo conditions and elucidates the molecular mechanisms underlying the tissue repair. MSC-EVs were isolated from murine BM-derived MSCs and their morphological, antigenic and molecular composition regarding protein and microRNA levels were evaluated to examine their properties. Global proteomic analysis demonstrated the presence in MSC-EVs of proteins regulating pro-regenerative pathways, including integrin α5 (Itgα5) and neuropilin-1 (NRP1) involved in lymphangiogenesis. MSC-EVs were also enriched in microRNAs regulating angiogenesis, TGF-β signaling and processes guiding cellular adhesion and interactions with extracellular matrix. The functional effects of MSC-EVs on capillary ECs in vitro included the increase of capillary-like tube formation and cytoprotection under normal and inflammatory conditions by inhibiting apoptosis. Notably, MSC-EVs enhanced also capillary-like tube formation of lymphatic ECs, which may be regulated by Itgα5 and NRP1. Moreover, in a mouse model of critical hind limb ischemia, MSC-EVs increased the recovery of blood flow in ischemic muscle tissue, which was accompanied with increased vascular density in vivo. This pro-angiogenic effect was associated with an increase in nitric oxide (NO) production via endothelial NO-synthase activation in ischemic muscles. Interestingly, MSC-EVs enhanced lymphangiogenesis, which has never been reported before. The study provides evidence on pro-angiogenic and novel pro-lymphangiogenic role of MSC-EVs on ECs in ischemic tissue mediated by their protein and miRNA molecular cargos. The results highlight Itgα5 and NRP1 carried by MSC-EVs as potential therapeutic targets to boost lymphangiogenesis. Graphical Abstract
