Cow and Human Milk-Derived Exosomes Ameliorate Colitis in DSS Murine Model
2020
Overview
The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of cow and human milk derived exosomes (MDEs) on colitis. We used gavage administration of fluorescent labeled MDEs to track their localization patterns in vivo and studied their therapeutic effect on colitis in a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model. MDEs attenuated the severity of colitis induced by DSS and statistically reduced the histopathological scoring grade and shortening of the colon. Likewise, treatment with MDEs reduced the expression of interleukin 6 and tumor necrosis factor-α. Moreover, miRNAs highly expressed in milk, such as miRNA-320, 375, and Let-7, were found to be more abundant in the colon of MDE-treated mice compared with untreated mice; contrastingly, the expression of their target genes, mainly DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) and DNMT3 were downregulated. Furthermore, the level of TGF-β was upregulated in the colon of MDE-treated mice. We demonstrated that MDEs have a therapeutic and anti-inflammatory effect on colitis, involving several complementary pathways in its mechanism of action. The therapeutic effects of MDEs might have implications for the possible addition of MDEs as a nutrient in enteral nutrition formulas for patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
