Exosomes from circRNA-Ptpn4 can modify ADSC treatment and repair nerve damage caused by cerebral infarction by shifting microglial M1/M2 polarization

This study showed that exosomes from hypoxia pretreatment of ADSCs had significant effects in promoting functional recovery following in vivo MCAO, through suppressed inflammatory factor expression, and shifting the microglial from M1 to M2 polarization activation. The results showed that circRNA-Ptpn4 was highly expressed during hypoxia pretreatment of ADSCs exosomes. Exosomes from circ-Ptpn4-modified ADSCs had a greater ability to promote functional recovery. The circ-Ptpn4 delivered from ADSC exosomes induced microglia/macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 by suppressing miR-153-3p and enhancing Nrf2 expressions. Taken together, the results showed that exosomes from circRNA-Ptpn4 modified ADSC treatment repaired nerve damage caused by cerebral infarction by inducing microglial M1/M2 polarization.PMID:37632638 | DOI:10.1007/s11010-023-04824-x
