Description

Use of brown adipocyte-derived exosomes in the treatment of arthritis-related disorders
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular biology, and particularly relates to application of an exosome derived from brown adipocytes transdifferentiated by human skin fibroblasts (HEF cells) in treating arthritis-related diseases.
Background
The arthritic condition includes inflammation of one or more joints, and the main symptoms are joint pain, stiffness, limited movement, fever and redness of the skin of the joint, muscle weakness, muscular atrophy and the like, and the cause of the inflammation is not completely known, but is related to multiple factors including congenital genetic factors, acquired environmental factors, age, sex, obesity, joint injury, excessive use of the joint and the like.
According to the latest epidemiological studies, at least about 6 millions of people suffering from arthritis are present in China, and the number of patients is gradually increased. Arthritis affects not only the quality of life of the patient, but such a large disease base also places a great burden on society and national production. At present, certain toxic and side effects or traumatic injury defects exist in the treatment scheme aiming at arthritis. Thus, how to benefit arthritic patients in a non-invasive and safe manner is currently a focus of attention.
With the deep research of stem cells and the general application of bioengineering technology, more and more researchers explore the application of the technology in the field of arthritis treatment, and gradually demonstrate more optimistic application prospects. However, the existing stem cell therapy for arthritis is mainly to inject stem cells in situ at a patient, but the injection mode is invasive therapy, which inevitably has a certain risk of local hemorrhage, hematoma and the like, and especially when aseptic operation is improper, local infection can be caused. In addition, if the injection is not proper, local tissue embolism may be caused, and local tissue necrosis may be caused.

Detailed Description
Aiming at a plurality of defects of the arthritis treatment modes in the prior art, the invention provides an external medicine for treating arthritis related diseases, which takes exosomes derived from brown adipocytes transdifferentiated by human skin fibroblasts as active ingredients.
The pathological changes of arthritis are mainly characterized by inflammation in joints, so that the current treatment method for arthritis mainly delivers medicines to the inflammation parts in joints (such as by injection and the like) so as to achieve the purpose of in-situ elimination of inflammation. The stratum corneum is an important barrier against external irritation, and it is well pointed out in pharmaceutics that substances with a molecular weight of more than 600Da are more difficult to pass through the stratum corneum. While exosomes are vesicles with a diameter of 40-100nm, which are generally considered to have a molecular weight of greater than 100KDa, there has been no report to date of using exosomes as external drugs for treating diseases under the stratum corneum (e.g. intra-articular) of the skin, and even though there has been a report of using exosomes for treating osteoarthritis, they are delivered to the site of intra-articular inflammation in a subject by injection. However, the present inventors have surprisingly found that when using exosomes derived from brown adipocytes transdifferentiated human skin fibroblasts as active ingredients of an external drug for treating arthritis, the results of the examples demonstrate that the external drug can treat arthritis-related disorders with good therapeutic effects, and that the external drug used is a non-invasive treatment modality, which can effectively avoid risks including local bleeding, hematoma, local infection, local tissue embolism, local tissue necrosis, etc. that may exist in invasive treatment modalities (e.g., injection) of the prior art. Based on the above, the invention provides application of exosomes derived from brown adipocytes transdifferentiated by human skin fibroblasts in preparing medicines (especially external medicines) for treating arthritis-related diseases, and provides an external medicine for treating arthritis-related diseases.
The invention is further illustrated below in conjunction with specific examples. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the invention, are intended for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
The methods used in the examples described below are conventional methods unless otherwise specified. The specific steps can be seen in: molecular cloning guidelines (Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual) Sambrook, j., russell, david w., molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual,3rd edition,2001,NY,Cold Spring Harbor).
The various biomaterials described in the examples were obtained by merely providing an experimental route for achieving the objectives of the specific disclosure and should not be construed as limiting the source of biomaterials of the present invention. In fact, the source of the biological material used is broad, and any biological material that is available without violating law and ethics may be used instead as suggested in the examples. The experimental materials used in the examples described below, unless otherwise specified, are all conventional biochemical reagents and are commercially available.
The sequences referred to in the examples below can all be synthesized using the prior art.
Example 1: modification of HEF cells (human skin fibroblasts) to precursor cells with the potential to differentiate into brown adipocytes
This example aims at engineering HEF cells into precursor cells having the potential to differentiate into brown adipocytes and identifying the characteristics of the precursor cells, and specifically comprises the following steps.
1.1 plasmid construction
The human PPARgamma cDNA sequence (the nucleotide sequence of which is shown as SEQ ID NO: 1) and the human CEBP beta cDNA sequence (the nucleotide sequence of which is shown as SEQ ID NO: 2) are cloned into a pCDH-EF1-MCS-T2A-Gfp vector (commercially available) and a pCDH-EF1-MCS-T2A-Puro vector (commercially available) respectively, and the PPARgamma virus expression vector and the CEBP beta virus expression vector are obtained respectively.
1.2 lentiviral packaging
HEK 293T cells were cultured (complete medium for cell culture was complete medium containing 10% FBS) and the cells were packed at a density of 8X 10 5 Individual cells/cm 2 The cells were evenly inoculated into 6cm dishes and ready for transfection when the cells had fused to 70-80%. DMEM serum-free medium and DMEM 10% fbs-free double antibody medium were prepared for use. Viral expression vector during packaging (obtained in step 1.1): psPAX2: the mass ratio of pMD2G was 5 μg:2 μg: 1. Mu.g as transfection mixture. Specifically, 16. Mu.l Lipofectamine2000 was added to the plasmid solution, and the mixture was homogenized and incubated at 37℃for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, the HEK 293T cell culture medium is discarded, and replaced by 2.5ml of DMEM culture medium containing 10% FBS and not containing double antibodies, and then a transfection mixture is added; after 12h, the DMEM complete culture medium is changed, after 48h, 1ml of each EP tube is supplemented, after 72h, the culture medium containing the virus is respectively transferred into a centrifuge tube, and the centrifugation is carried out at 3000r/min and 4 ℃ for 10min, so that the virus liquid is removed. The virus solutions were filtered with 0.45 μm filters, respectively, and stored in a-80℃refrigerator for use. The lentivirus producing PPARgamma and the lentivirus producing CEBP beta are obtained respectively.
1.3 HEF cell construction to stably transduce PPARgamma and CEBP beta
Recovering HEF cells stored in frozen state according to the inoculation density of 8×10 5 Individual cells/cm 2 Inoculated in 6cm dishes, 4 ml/dish. The complete medium for cell culture was 10% FBS-containing complete medium. At 5% CO 2 Culturing in an incubator at 37 ℃. After the HEF cells are fused to 80-90%, the PPARgamma-producing lentivirus and CEBP beta-producing lentivirus obtained in step 1.2 are used to infectHEF cells are subjected to GFP flow screening and PURO pressure screening after 48 hours, and HEF cells which can stably co-express PPARgamma and CEBP beta in a co-high mode are obtained, namely precursor cells with the potential of differentiating into brown adipocytes. In this step, HEF cells stably expressing GFP, HEF cells monostable expressing CEBP beta and HEF cells monostable expressing PPARgamma were constructed simultaneously in the above manner.
1.4 characterization of precursor Stem cells with potential to differentiate into brown adipocytes
The GFP-stably expressing HEF cells, CEBP β -monostabilized and pparγ -monostabilized HEF cells constructed in step 1.3 and the pparγ -stably co-expressing and CEBP β -stably co-expressing HEF cells were inoculated into 12-well plates, respectively, at a cell density of 100% (under a microscope, the cells were in contact with each other). After 24 hours, the cells were cultured by replacing them with brown adipocyte-induced differentiation medium (shown in Table 1 below) for 6 days, and the cell morphology was observed.
Table 1: brown adipocyte induced differentiation medium formula
The results are shown in FIG. 1, which show the cell morphology after induction culture of the steady GFP-expressing HEF cells, the monostable CEBP beta-expressing HEF cells, and the steady co-expressing PPARgamma and CEBP beta HEF cells, respectively, by the brown adipocyte-induced differentiation medium (since the monostable PPARgamma-expressing HEF cells were not visible after induction culture of the brown adipocyte-induced differentiation medium, no lipid droplet formation was seen), whereas the steady co-expressing CEBP beta-expressing HEF cells and the steady co-expressing PPARgamma and CEBP beta HEF cells were visible in the cells after induction culture of the brown adipocyte-induced differentiation medium (oil red staining result), whereas only a small amount of lipid droplet formation was visible after induction culture of the monostable CEBP beta-expressing HEF cells by the brown adipocyte-induced differentiation medium, compared to the results of the steady GFP-expressing HEF cells. The above results indicate that co-expression of both pparγ and CEBP β can work together, wherein CEBP β promotes conversion of HEF cells to brown adipocytes, pparγ promotes further differentiation and maturation of brown adipocytes, so that the constructed HEF cells stably co-expressing pparγ and CEBP β have a higher potential to differentiate into brown adipocytes.
Example 2: preparation of mature brown adipocyte-derived exosomes transdifferentiated HEF cells
This example aims at inducing the HEF cells stably co-expressing PPARgamma and CEBP beta, which were constructed as described in example 1 and have the potential to differentiate into brown adipocytes, to transdifferentiate into mature brown adipocytes, and preparing exosomes using the mature brown adipocytes, specifically comprising the following steps.
(2.1) HEF cells stably co-expressing PPARgamma and CEBP beta, which were obtained by constructing in example 1, were induced to differentiate in brown adipocyte-induced differentiation medium (shown in Table 1, the formulation specifically used in this example was 98% by volume of high sugar DMEM, 2% by volume of fetal bovine serum, 33. Mu.M of biotin, 0.5. Mu.M of insulin, 17. Mu.M of pantothenic acid, 0.10. Mu.M of DEX, 2. Mu.M of T3, 0.55mM of IBMX and 0.03mM of indomethacin) for 6 days.

3.1A mouse model of collagen-induced arthritis (collagen-induced arthritis, CIA) was constructed using DBA/1J mice (Male, 8 week old, purchased from Beijing Vitre Lihua laboratory animal technologies Co., ltd., and fed to the institute of China academy of sciences animal management center, SPF grade, room temperature 24.+ -. 2 ℃ for 12 hours light/dark cycle) by the following specific method: bovine type II collagen (type II collagen, CII, chondrex inc 20021) was mixed with 50. Mu.l of adjuvant (Chondrex 7001) and fully emulsified, and the first immunization was performed by subcutaneous injection at the root of DBA/1J mice, and after 21 days 50. Mu. l C II was mixed with 50. Mu.l of incomplete adjuvant (Chondrex 7002) and fully emulsified for re-immunization by subcutaneous injection at the root of mice. Treatment was performed 21 days after the first immunization, specifically, mice were randomly divided into 2 groups (10 mice per group), wherein the first group was a control group, and vitamin E milk was applied once daily to the limbs of the mice (standard, home-made); another group was treated with vitamin E milk addition of brown adipocyte-derived exosomes prepared in example 2 (wherein the total protein concentration was about 1 mg/ml) and applied once daily on the four limbs of mice for 21 consecutive days. All animal experimental schemes above have been approved by the animal welfare ethics review committee of the national academy of sciences of China, and all experiments were performed strictly according to the animal ethics guidelines and approved animal experimental system designs.
3.2, index: the extent of swelling of the joints of the limbs (expressed as average thickness of paw swelling in mice) was observed and measured on day 21 (i.e., day of treatment, 0 w), day 28 (i.e., one week of treatment, 1 w), day 35 (i.e., two weeks of treatment, 2 w) and day 42 (i.e., three weeks of treatment, 3 w), respectively, and the serum of each group was collected on day 42 (i.e., three weeks of treatment, 3 w) and the levels of inflammatory factor TNFa in the serum of each group was detected using ELISA kit (CUSABIO, CSB-E04741 m). The knee joints of the mice of the control group and the exosome treatment group on day 42 were fixed for 48 hours, rinsed with running water for 2 hours, decalcified in 10% EDTA decalcified solution, replaced 2 times per week for 4 weeks, embedded in conventional paraffin, sectioned (6 μm) for later use, stained according to safranine fast green (Soy Bao G1371) instructions, sealed and observed with a microscope.
3.3 results
(1) The curves of the average paw swelling thickness over time for each group of mice measured from day 21 to day 42 (0 w-3 w) are shown in fig. 2, and it can be seen that paw redness occurred in each group of model mice on day 21, and from day 28 (one week of treatment, 1 w), the average paw swelling thickness was significantly lower for the exosome-treated group of mice than for the control group (P < 0.05); after two weeks of treatment, the average paw swelling thickness of the mice in the exosome treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.01), wherein the average thickness of the control group at 2w was 3.23mm, and the average thickness of the exosome treatment group was 2.39mm; the average thickness of the control group at 3w was 3.28mm and the exosome treatment group was 2.64mm. The results show that the thickness of paw swelling of the mice can be obviously reduced when the mice with the model of collagen-induced arthritis are treated by external administration except for exosomes, and the mice have good effect of eliminating inflammation from appearance.
(2) The results of examination of the levels of the inflammatory factor TNFa in the serum of each group of mice are shown in FIG. 3, and it can be seen that the levels of the inflammatory factor TNFa in the serum of the mice of the exosome-treated group are significantly lower (P < 0.05) relative to the control group. The results show that when the external administration mode except for exosomes is used for treating the collagen-induced arthritis model mouse, the level of inflammatory factor TNFa in serum of the model mouse can be obviously reduced, and a good effect of eliminating inflammation is realized.
(3) Microscopic observations of paraffin embedded sections of knee joints of mice in the control group and the exosome treatment group are shown in fig. 4, and compared with knee joints of mice in the control group, cartilage surfaces at knee joints of mice in the exosome treatment group are smoother, inflammatory cell infection is obviously reduced, and the external application administration of exosomes derived from brown fat cells at knee joints is shown to have good improvement and treatment effects on arthritis symptoms of model mice.
The above results show that the brown adipocyte-derived exosomes (prepared in example 2) provided by the present invention can significantly improve their arthritic lesions indications by applying to the extremities of the CIA mouse model. In addition, compared with the injection mode reported in the prior art, which is invasive treatment, risks including local hemorrhage, hematoma, infection, local tissue embolism, local tissue necrosis and the like exist, the external medicine mode adopted by the invention is safer and more convenient.
Example 4: application of brown adipocyte-derived exosomes

9 patients with arthritic pain (signed informed consent, specific information of the patients is shown in table 3 below) were selected for treatment with brown adipocyte-derived exosomes prepared in example 2 and subsequently subjected to medical evaluation. The specific treatment mode is as follows: the patient smears brown adipocyte-derived exosomes prepared in example 2 (wherein the total protein concentration was about 1 mg/ml) once a day in the morning and evening at the painful site of the patient for 14 consecutive days, and records the pain index, the evaluation method and criteria of which are as follows:
visual simulation method (VAS line drawing method)
A long line (typically 100 mm) is drawn between painless/severe pain, and no marks, numbers or words are made on the line so as not to affect the evaluation result. One end represents no pain and the other end represents severe pain, so that the patient can draw a cross line on the line where the pain degree can be reflected by the patient.
VAS pain scoring criteria (0 min-10 min)
0 point: no pain;
less than or equal to 3 minutes: slight pain, tolerance;
4-6: the patients are painful and influence sleep, and can endure;
more than or equal to 7 minutes: patients have gradually intense pain, which is hard to endure, affects appetite and affects sleep.
The evaluation results are shown in Table 3 below. It can be seen that the pain index of arthritis-related conditions including gouty arthritis, cervical disc herniation, lumbar disc degeneration and tendinitis can be significantly reduced after applying the exosomes provided by the present invention to the pain sites of arthritis-related conditions patients for 3 days, and the pain index of these arthritis-related conditions can be significantly reduced after applying the exosomes for 7 days (especially 14 days later), and the exosomes provided by the present invention have better therapeutic effects (the pain index is generally reduced from 7-9 to 0-2) on gouty arthritis and cervical disc herniation among these arthritis-related conditions, and the pain of patients can be substantially completely relieved after applying the exosomes for 14 days. The results prove that the HEF cell transdifferentiated brown adipocyte-derived exosomes prepared by the invention have good effect of relieving pain of arthritis-related diseases.
