description <i>Cysticercus pisiformis</i>, the larval stage of <i>Taenia pisiformis</i>, causes serious illness in rabbits that severely impacts the rabbit breeding industry. An inhibitive Th2 immune response can be induced by let-7-enriched exosomes derived from <i>T. pisiformis</i> cysticercus. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not completely understood. Here, we report that exosomal miR-let-7-5p released by <i>T. pisiformis</i> cysticercus played a critical role in the activation of M2 macrophages. We found that overexpression of let-7-5p in M1 macrophages decreased M1 phenotype expression while promoting polarization to the M2 phenotype, which is consistent with experimental data in exosome-treated macrophages alone. In contrast, knockdown of let-7-5p in exosome-like vesicles promoted M1 polarization and decreased M2 phenotype expression. Furthermore, down-regulation of transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP)-δ resulted in the decrease of M1 phenotype markers and increase of M2 phenotype markers. These results suggested that let-7 enriched in exosome-like vesicles from <i>T. pisiformis</i> metacestodes can induce M2 macrophage polarization via targeting C/EBP δ, which may be involved in macrophage polarization induced by <i>T. pisiformis</i> metacestodes. The finding helps to expand our knowledge of the molecular mechanism of immunosuppression and Th2 immune response induced by metacestodes.
