Mesenchymal Stem Cells Secrete Immunologically Active Exosomes
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been shown to secrete exosomes that are cardioprotective. Here, we demonstrated that MSC exosome, a secreted membrane vesicle, is immunologically active. MSC exosomes induced polymyxin-resistant, MYD88-dependent secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) expression in a THP1-Xblue, a THP-1 reporter cell line with an NFκB-SEAP reporter gene. In contrast to lipopolysaccharide, they induced high levels of anti-inflammatory IL10 and TGFβ1 transcript at 3 and 72 h, and much attenuated levels of pro-inflammatory IL1B, IL6, TNFA and IL12P40 transcript at 3-h. The 3-h but not 72-h induction of cytokine transcript was abrogated by MyD88 deficiency. Primary human and mouse monocytes exhibited a similar exosome-induced cytokine transcript profile. Exosome-treated THP-1 but not MyD88-deficient THP-1 cells polarized activated CD4(+) T cells to CD4(+)CD25(+)FoxP3(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) at a ratio of one exosome-treated THP-1 cell to 1,000 CD4(+) T cells. Infusion of MSC exosomes enhanced the survival of allogenic skin graft in mice and increased Tregs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
