However, the mechanism underlying such injury remains elusive.Methods: The 150 male C57 mice underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) for 1 h and reperfusion for 24 h,Among them, 50 MCAO mice were further treated with Mitochondrial division inhibitor 1(Mdivi-1) and 50 MCAO mice were further treated with N-acetylcysteine(NAC). SH-SY5Y cells were cultured in a low-glucose culture medium for 4 h under hypoxic conditions and then transferred to normal conditions for 12 h. Then, cerebral blood flow, mitochondrial structure, mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA) copy number, intracellular and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species(ROS),autophagic flux, aggresome and exosome expression profiles, cardiac tissue structure, mitochondrial length and cristae density, mtDNA and ROS content, as well as the expression of Drp1-Ser616/Drp1, RIP1/RIP3, LC3 II/I, TNF-α,IL-1β, etc., were detected under normal or Drp1 interference conditions.Results: The mtDNA content, ROS levels, and Drp1-Ser616/Drp1 were elevated by 2.2, 1.7 and 2.7 times after CIRI(P<0.05). However, the high cytoplasmic LC3 II/I ratio and increased aggregation of p62 could be reversed by 44%and 88% by Drp1 short hairpin RNA(shRNA)(P<0.05). The low fluorescence intensity of autophagic flux and the increased phosphorylation of RIP3 induced by CIRI could be attenuated by ROS scavenger, NAC(P<0.05). RIP1/RIP3inhibitor Necrostatin-1(Nec-1) restored 75% to a low LC3 II/I ratio and enhanced 2 times to a high RFP-LC3 after Drp1 activation(P<0.05). In addition, although CIRI-induced ROS production caused no considerable accumulation of autophagosomes(P>0.05), it increased the packaging and extracellular secretion of exosomes containing p62 by 4–5 times, which could be decreased by Mdivi-1, Drp1 shRNA, and Nec-1(P<0.05). Furthermore, TNF-α and IL-1βincreased in CIRI-derived exosomes could increase RIP3 phosphorylation in normal or oxygen–glucose deprivation/reoxygenation(OGD/R) conditions(P<0.05).Conclusions: CIRI activated Drp1 and accelerated the p62-mediated formation of autophagosomes while inhibiting the transition of autophagosomes to autolysosomes via the RIP1/RIP3 pathway activation. Undegraded autophagosomes were secreted extracellularly in the form of exosomes, leading to inflammatory cascades that further damaged mitochondria, resulting in excessive ROS generation and the blockage of autophagosome degradation,triggering a vicious cycle.展开更多
本研究通过高通量测序技术,分析正常培养和氧糖剥夺再复氧(oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation,OGD/R)培养星形胶质细胞来源外泌体的差异微小RNA(microRNA,miRNA)。采用超速离心法提取正常组和OGD/R组星形胶质细胞培养基上...本研究通过高通量测序技术,分析正常培养和氧糖剥夺再复氧(oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation,OGD/R)培养星形胶质细胞来源外泌体的差异微小RNA(microRNA,miRNA)。采用超速离心法提取正常组和OGD/R组星形胶质细胞培养基上清的外泌体,透射电镜观察到提取的外泌体呈典型囊泡状,包膜完整,含有低电子密度的物质;纳米颗粒追踪技术(NTA)检测到星形胶质细胞外泌体大小为100.5±31.1 nm,占比为96.8%;免疫印迹检测显示,提取物中有外泌体标志性蛋白肿瘤易感蛋白(tumour-susceptibility protein,TSG101)、热休克蛋白60(heat shock proteins 60,Hsp60)、ALG-2相互作用蛋白X(ALG-2-interacting protein X,ALIX)的表达。与正常组相比,OGD/R组共有41个miRNA发生显著改变,其中20个miRNA显著升高,21个miRNA显著降低(P<0.05)。基因本体功能(GO)分析显示,差异靶基因主要参与蛋白质糖基化、脂质代谢过程、磷酸化作用、高尔基体、内质网、内吞体、细胞质囊泡和细胞突起等生物学过程;京都基因与基因组百科全书(KEGG)通路分析发现,差异靶基因主要与丁酸代谢、β-丙氨酸代谢、脂肪酸降解、线粒体自噬和P53信号通路等代谢途径和信号通路有关。通过对正常组和OGD/R组的星形胶质细胞来源的外泌体miRNA测序并进一步施行靶基因功能富集分析,为后续研究星形胶质细胞外泌体对氧糖剥夺再灌注神经元发挥的保护作用的具体机制提供了一定的研究基础。展开更多
