Abstract
The increase in the aging population has seriously affected our society. Neurodegenerative diseases caused by aging of the brain significantly impact the normal life of the elderly, and delaying brain aging is currently the focus of research. SIRT1 is a viable therapeutic target, and there is mounting evidence that it plays a significant role in the aging process. Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-Exos) have gained widespread interest as nanotherapeutic agents because of their ability to be injected at high doses to reduce the immune response. The present study focused on the ameliorative effect of MSC-Exos on aging mice and the potential mechanisms of this effect on cognitive impairment and brain aging. In this study, we first tested the neuroprotective effects of MSC-Exos in vitro on H2O2-induced oxidative damage in BV2 cells. An in vivo SAMP8 rapid senescence mouse model showed that MSC-Exos significantly increased SIRT1 gene expression in senescent mice. In addition, MSC-Exos also had an anti-apoptotic effect and reduced oxidative stress in the brains of SAMP8 senescent mice. In conclusion, MSC-Exos may exert neuroprotective effects and help prevent brain senescence in SAMP8 mice by activating the SIRT1 signaling pathway.
