Angiogenesis and osteogenesis are tightly coupled during bone modeling and remodeling processes. Here we reported that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosomal miR-29a promotes angiogenesis and osteogenesis and . BMSC-derived exosomes (BMSCs-Exos) can be taken up by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and promote the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of HUVECs. MiRNA-29a level was high in BMSCs-Exos and can be transported into HUVECs to regulate angiogenesis. VASH1 was identified as a direct target of miR-29a, mediating the effects of BMSC-derived exosomal miR-29a on angiogenesis. More interestingly, miR29a-loaded exosomes from engineered BMSCs (miR-29a-loaded BMSCs-Exos) showed a robust ability of promoting angiogenesis and osteogenesis . Taken together, these findings suggest that BMSC-derived exosomal miR-29a regulates angiogenesis and osteogenesis, and miR-29a-loaded BMSCs-Exos may serve as a potential therapeutic target for osteoporosis.
在骨塑形和重塑过程中,血管生成与骨生成紧密相关。在此我们报道,骨髓间充质干细胞(BMSC)来源的外泌体miR-29a促进血管生成和骨生成。BMSC来源的外泌体(BMSCs-Exos)可被人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVECs)摄取,并促进HUVECs的增殖、迁移和管腔形成。miRNA-29a在BMSCs-Exos中水平较高,可转运至HUVECs中以调节血管生成。VASH1被鉴定为miR-29a的直接靶标,介导BMSC来源的外泌体miR-29a对血管生成的影响。更有趣的是,来自工程化BMSC的载有miR29a的外泌体(载有miR-29a的BMSCs-Exos)显示出强大的促进血管生成和骨生成的能力。综上所述,这些发现表明BMSC来源的外泌体miR-29a调节血管生成和骨生成,且载有miR-29a的BMSCs-Exos可能作为骨质疏松症的潜在治疗靶点。
