BACKGROUND: Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a cerebrovascular disease with a high disability rate; however, its pathogenesis remains unknown. Endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) is the pathological basis of many vascular diseases; however, the key role of EndMT in MMD has not yet been reported.
METHOD: We collected vascular tissues from three control samples and six patients with MMD to detect the expression of EndMT-related genes. To elucidate the mechanism of EndMT in MMD, we performed in vitro cell experiments. Plasma-derived exosomes (PDEs) can transmit information between cells and tissues and are of considerable importance in several disease studies. PDEs were used to stimulate EndMT phenotype in cerebrovascular endothelial cells.
RESULTS: Multiplex fluorescent immunohistochemistry staining confirmed that CD31, VE-cadherin and E-cadherin down-regulated, whereas α-SMA and vimentin were significantly up-regulated in moyamoya vascular endothelial cells than in control samples. PDEs from MMD patients significantly promoted cell proliferation and migration, resulting in slender cells. PDEs induce EndMT-related phenotype changes in cerebral vascular endothelial cells, including decreased endothelial cell marker expression and increased mesenchymal cell marker expression. We demonstrated that EndMT phenotypic alterations are mediated, in part, by microRNA(miRNAs).
CONCLUSION: This study was the first to propose that EndMT may exist in the vessels of patients with MMD. PDEs induce the EndMT phenotype to promote the development of MMD. This study aimed to provide a new theoretical basis for elucidating the pathogenesis of MMD.
