Adipose Mesenchymal Stromal Cell-Derived Exosomes Carrying MiR-122-5p Antagonize the Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on Hair Follicles by Targeting the TGF-β1/SMAD3 Signaling Pathway
2023
Overview
Androgenic alopecia (AGA) is the most common type of hair loss, where local high concentrations of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the scalp cause progressive shrinkage of the hair follicles, eventually contributing to hair loss. Due to the limitations of existing methods to treat AGA, the use of multi-origin mesenchymal stromal cell-derived exosomes has been proposed. However, the functions and mechanisms of action of exosomes secreted by adipose mesenchymal stromal cells (ADSCs-Exos) in AGA are still unclear. Using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) analysis, immunofluorescence staining, scratch assays, and Western blotting, it was found that ADSC-Exos contributed to the proliferation, migration, and differentiation of dermal papilla cells (DPCs) and up-regulated the expression of cyclin, β-catenin, versican, and BMP2. ADSC-Exos also mitigated the inhibitory effects of DHT on DPCs and down-regulated transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) and its downstream genes. Moreover, high-throughput miRNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis identified 225 genes that were co-expressed in ADSC-Exos; of these, miR-122-5p was highly enriched and was found by luciferase assays to target SMAD3. ADSC-Exos carrying miR-122-5p antagonized DHT inhibition of hair follicles, up-regulated the expression of β-catenin and versican in vivo and in vitro, restored hair bulb size and dermal thickness, and promoted the normal growth of hair follicles. So, ADSC-Exos enhanced the regeneration of hair follicles in AGA through the action of miR-122-5p and the inhibition of the TGF-β/SMAD3 axis. These results suggest a novel treatment option for the treatment of AGA.
