Abstract (original English)
Although accumulating evidence indicates that exosomes have a positive therapeutic effect on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI), studies focusing on the alleviation of liver injury by exosomes derived from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs-Exo) based on the inhibition of cell pyroptosis have not yet been reported. Exosomes contain different kinds of biologically active substances such as proteins, lipids, mRNAs, miRNAs, and signaling molecules. These molecules are widely involved in cell-cell communication, cell signal transmission, proliferation, migration, and apoptosis. Therefore, we investigated the positive effects exerted by ADSCs-Exo after hepatic ischemia-reperfusion with partial resection injury in rats. In this study, we found that the post-operative tail vein injection of ADSCs-Exo could effectively inhibit the expression of pyroptosis-related factors such as NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, and GSDMD-N, and promote the expression of regeneration-related factors such as Cyclin D1 and VEGF. Moreover, we found that the above cellular activities were associated with the NF-κB and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways. According to the results, ADSCs and ADSCs-Exo can reduce pyroptosis in the injured liver and promote the expression of those factors related to liver regeneration, while they can inhibit the NF-κB pathway and activate the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
