Abstract
Myocardial infraction (MI) is a severe disease with great mortality. Mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes display protection against MI. MicroRNA-129-5p was reported to exert anti-inflammation activity by targeting high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1). In the present study, the effects of MSCs derived exosomes overexpressing miR-129-5p on MI were evaluated. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were transfected with miR-129-5p for exosomes isolation. Myocardial infraction mice model was established and administrated exosomes overexpressing miR-129-5p. The cardiac function, expression of HMGB1, inflammatory cytokines, apoptosis and fibrosis in heart tissues were measured. miR-129-5p inhibited HMGB1 expression in BMSCs. Myocardial infraction mice treated with exosomes overexpressing miR-129-5p had enhanced cardiac function and decreased expression of HMGB1 and production of inflammatory cytokines. Exosomes overexpressing miR-129-5p further prevented apoptosis and fibrosis. Exosome-mediated transfer of miR-129-5p suppressed inflammation in MI mice by targeting HMGB1.
