Anti-CHAC1 exosomes for nose-to-brain delivery of miR-760-3p in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury mice inhibiting neuron ferroptosis

Abstract Ferroptosis plays a critical role in ischemic stroke, and anti-ferroptosis strategies were regarded as potentially effective measures. Based on ferroptosis-related mechanisms, this study aims to design and prepare anti-ferroptosis exosomes from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC-E...

description Abstract Ferroptosis plays a critical role in ischemic stroke, and anti-ferroptosis strategies were regarded as potentially effective measures. Based on ferroptosis-related mechanisms, this study aims to design and prepare anti-ferroptosis exosomes from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC-Exo) for treating ischemic brain injury via intranasal (IN) administration. According to the bioinformatic analysis, CHAC1 was a key gene in the progress of ferroptosis in ischemic stroke. miR-760-3p can inhibit the expression of CHAC1 and may be abundant in ADSC-Exo. Therefore, ADSC-Exo were successfully isolated and the immunofluorescence showed that they can be efficiently delivered to the brain via IN administration. Additionally, IN administration of ADSC-Exo can effectively improve the neurobehavior function of mice after I/R, and improve the ferroptosis-related outcomes. As the immunofluorescence showed the co-localization of NeuN with CHAC1 obviously, we further evaluated the systematic effect of ADSC-Exo in an oxygen–glucose deprivation (OGD) mouse neuroblastoma cell line N2a model. The results showed that miR-760-3p in ADSC‐Exo contributed to their function in inhibiting ferroptosis by targeting CHAC1 in neurons. Collectively, the present study successfully designed and prepared anti-CHAC1 ADSC-Exo and suggested a promising exosome-based strategy for anti-ferroptosis therapy in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.
