Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Three-Dimensional-Cultured Human Umbilical Cord Blood Mesenchymal Stem Cells Prevent Inflammation and Dedifferentiation in Pancreatic Islets.
It is unclear whether extracellular vesicles (EVs) from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have a direct protective effect on pancreatic islets. In addition, whether culturing MSCs in three dimensions (3D) instead of a monolayer (2D) can induce changes in the cargo of EVs that facilitate the polarization of macrophages into an M2 phenotype has not been investigated. We sought to determine whether EVs from MSCs cultured in 3D can prevent inflammation and dedifferentiation in pancreatic islets and, if so, whether the protective effect is superior to that of EVs from 2D MSCs. Human umbilical cord blood- (hUCB-) MSCs cultured in 3D were optimized according to cell density, exposure to hypoxia, and cytokine treatment based on the ability of the hUCB-MSC-derived EVs to induce the M2 polarization of macrophages. Islets isolated from human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) heterozygote transgenic mice were cultured in serum-deprived conditions with hUCB-MSC-derived EVs. EVs derived from 3D hUCB-MSCs had more abundant microRNAs involved in M2 polarization of macrophages and had an enhanced M2 polarization ability on macrophages, which was optimized when the 3D culture condition was 2.5 × 104 cells per spheroid without preconditioning with hypoxia and cytokine exposure. When islets isolated from hIAPP heterozygote transgenic mice were cultured in serum-deprived conditions with hUCB-MSC-derived EVs, the EVs derived from 3D hUCB-MSCs suppressed the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and caspase-1 in pancreatic islets and increased the proportion of M2-polarized islet-resident macrophages. They improved glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, reduced the expression of Oct4 and NGN3, and induced the expression of Pdx1 and FoxO1. The greater suppression of IL-1 β , NLRP3 inflammasome, caspase-1, and Oct4 and induction of Pdx1 and FoxO1 were found in islets cultured with the EVs derived from 3D hUCB-MSCs. In conclusion, EVs derived from 3D hUCB-MSCs optimized for M2 polarization attenuated nonspecific inflammation and preserved β -cell identity of pancreatic islets.
