PURPOSE: Our previous study indicated that exosomes derived from mouse adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (mADSC-Exos) alleviated the benzalkonium chloride (BAC)-induced mouse dry eye model. However, the specific active molecules in mADSC-Exos that contribute to anti-dry eye therapy remain unidentified. In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy and mechanisms of miR-223-3p derived from mADSC-Exos in dry eye models.
METHODS: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) experiments were conducted to determine miR-223-3p derived from mADSC-Exos that exerted anti-inflammatory effects on hyperosmolarity-induced mouse corneal epithelial cells (MCECs). The therapeutic efficacy of miR-223-3p was evaluated in mice with dry eye induced by either BAC or scopolamine (Scop). Mice were randomly assigned to 5 groups: sham, model, miR-223-3p overexpression, miR-223-3p knockdown, and 0.1% pranoprofen (positive group). Post-treatment, the severity of dry eye symptoms, and the pro-inflammatory cytokine levels were assessed. The effect of miR-223-3p on silencing the target gene was verified using ELISA and dual luciferase reporter assays.
RESULTS: The mADSC-Exos that knocked out miR-223-3p did not reduce interleukin (IL)-6 content. Supplementing with miR-223-3p could restore the reduction of IL-6. The miR-223-3p effectively ameliorated ocular surface damage and decreased pro-inflammatory cytokines or chemokines in both BAC- and Scop-induced mouse dry eye models. Furthermore, miR-223-3p inhibited cell apoptosis. F-box and WD repeat domain-containing 7 (Fbxw7) was the potential direct target of miR-223-3p. The miR-223-3p suppressed the 3'-untranslated region of Fbxw7. The Fbxw7 knockdown suppressed hyperosmolarity-induced inflammation in MCECs.
CONCLUSIONS: The mADSC-derived exosomal miR-223-3p mitigates ocular surface damage and inflammation, indicating its potential as a promising treatment option for dry eye.
