Abstract (original English)

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell derivatives containing diverse cellular molecules, have various physiological properties and are also present in stem cells used for regenerative therapy. We selected a "multiplexed target" that demonstrates multiple effects on various cardiovascular cells, while functioning as a cargo of EVs. We screened various microRNAs (miRs) and identified miR-210 as a candidate target for survival and angiogenic function. We confirmed the cellular and biological functions of EV-210 (EVs derived from ASC miR-210 ) secreted from adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) transfected with miR-210 (ASC miR-210 ). Under hypoxic conditions, we observed that ASC miR-210 inhibits apoptosis by modulating protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) and death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1). In hypoxic endothelial cells, EV-210 exerted its angiogenic capacity by inhibiting Ephrin A (EFNA3). Furthermore, EV-210 enhanced cell survival under the control of PTP1B and induced antiapoptotic effects in hypoxic H9c2 cells. In cardiac fibroblasts, the fibrotic ratio was reduced after exposure to EV-210, but EVs derived from ASC miR-210 did not communicate with fibroblasts. Finally, we observed the functional restoration of the ischemia/reperfusion-injured heart by maintaining the intercommunication of EVs and cardiovascular cells derived from ASC miR-210 . These results suggest t
