Abstract (original English)
Background Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) are an important source of cells for regenerative medicine. Evidence of extensive interactions with the surrounding microenvironment has led researchers to focus more on hADSCs as activating agents of regenerative pathways, rather than simply replacing damaged cells. Several studies have found that functional miRNAs can be packaged into exosomes and transferred from donor cells into recipient cells, indicating that transported miRNAs may be a new class of cell-to-cell regulatory species. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the exosome-derived miRNAs secreted by hADSCs are capable of influencing angiogenesis, a key step in tissue regeneration. Methods Exosomes were purified from hADSCs followed by the characterization of their phenotype and angiogenic potential in vitro. RNA sequencing was performed to detect the miRNAs that were enriched in the hADSC-derived exosomes. A miRNA-mimic experiment was used to detect the key miRNAs in the proangiogenic activity of hADSC-derived exosomes. Results Exosomes isolated from hADSCs were characterized as round membrane vesicles with a size of approximately 100 nm and were positive for CD9 and flotillin. The exosomes were internalized by primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and stimulated HUVEC proliferation and migration. Remarkably, the exosomes promote
