Abstract (original English)

Background Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is an underestimated sleep disorder that leads to multiple organ damages, including lung injury (LI). This paper sought to analyze the molecular mechanism of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) in OSAHS-induced lung injury (LI) via the miR-22-3p/histone lysine demethylase 6 B (KDM6B)/high mobility group AT-hook 2 (HMGA2) axis. Methods ADSCs and ADSCs-EVs were separated and characterized. Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) was used to mimic OSAHS-LI, followed by ADSCs-EVs treatment and hematoxylin and eosin staining, TUNEL, ELISA, and assays of inflammation and oxidative stress (MPO/ROS/MDA/SOD). The CIH cell model was established and treated with ADSCs-EVs. Cell injury was assessed by the assays of MTT, TUNEL, ELISA, and others. Levels of miR-22-3p, KDM6B, histone H3 trimethylation at lysine 27 (H3K27me3), and HMGA2 were determine by RT-qPCR or Western blot analysis. The transfer of miR-22-3p by ADSCs-EVs was observed by fluorescence microscopy. Gene interactions were analyzed by dual-luciferase assay or chromatin immunoprecipitation. Results ADSCs-EVs effectively alleviated OSAHS-LI by reducing lung tissue injury, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation. In vitro , ADSCs-EVs increased cell viability and reduced apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress. ADSCs-EVs
