  • TSG-Exo is derived from human MSC, a distinct immune rejection response was not observed when administered to a mouse colitis model. meant TSG-Exo substantially alleviated colitis by reducing the inflammatory response and maintaining intestinal barrier integrity in a mouse model of colitis.
  • a significant increase in Tregs and M2-type macrophages in the E. coli colon of mice treated with TSG-Exo suggests an anti-inflammatory effect of TSG-Exo.
  • similar expression occurred in exosomes and exosome-treated MNCs because anti-inflammatory factors of exosomes were efficiently delivered to MNCs when treated with Con A-stimulated MNCs (monocytes). Since TSG-Exo showed superior T cell/macrophage polarization regulation than control exosomes, the secretome of exosomes can be a reliable indicator for predicting the therapeutic effect of exosomes.
  • TSG-Exo significantly enhanced the effects of human peripheral blood-derived T cell proliferation and inhibition of Th1 and Th17 differentiation, whereas regulatory T cells and M2-type macrophages were abundant compared to the control exosome-treated group. This suggests that intestinal Tregs and macrophages may be mediators for the anti-inflammatory effects of MSC exosomes. Upregulation of Tregs and M2-type macrophages maintained intestinal homeostasis as suggested by disease activity scores, histological scores, and decreased neutrophil activity.
  • TSG treatment was sufficient to induce exosome release of WJ-MSCs and promoted the immunomodulatory properties of TSG-Exo, so TSG-treated MSCs or TSG-Exo provide a novel therapeutic method for the treatment of colitis. indicates that you can

Description

소포체 스트레스 유발 물질로 처리된 세포 유래 엑소좀 및 이의 용도Cell-derived exosomes treated with endoplasmic reticulum stress-inducing substances and uses thereof
본 출원은 2020년 12월 14일 출원된 대한민국 특허출원 제10-2020-0174576호 를 우선권으로 주장하고, 상기 명세서 전체는 본 출원의 참고문헌이다. This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0174576 filed on December 14, 2020, and the entire specification is a reference to the present application.
본 발명은 소포체 스트레스를 유도한 중간엽 줄기세포 유래 엑소좀의 치료적 용도에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to the therapeutic use of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes induced endoplasmic reticulum stress.
중간엽 줄기세포(Mesenchymal stem cells, MSC)는 면역 조절 특성을 가진 것으로 알려져 있는데, 이는 면역 억제, 혈관 조절 및 측분비 인자(paracrine factor) 활동으로 매개된다. 알려진 측분비 분비단백체(secretome)에는 면역 조절 사이토카인, 성장 인자 및 작은 막 소포의 분비가 포함된다. 그러나, 중간엽 줄기세포의 직접적인 사용은 이의 표현형 내지 기능적 안정성을 지속시키는 것 또는 높은 분리 내지 취급 비용 등의 문제점이 존재한다. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are known to have immunomodulatory properties, which are mediated by immunosuppression, vascular regulation and paracrine factor activity. Known paracrine secretomes include the secretion of immune regulatory cytokines, growth factors and small membrane vesicles. However, direct use of mesenchymal stem cells has problems such as maintaining their phenotypic or functional stability or high isolation and handling costs.
중간엽 줄기세포 분비단백체(MSC secretome) 중 엑소좀은 세포 간 통신에서 측분비 인자의 전달을 매개하여 면역 조절에 중요한 역할을 한다. 엑소좀은 세포 외 공간으로 방출되는 30 ~ 150nm 크기의 작은 막 지질 소포인데, 단백질, mRNA, microRNA (miRNA) 또는 기타 구성 요소를 표적 세포로 전달하여 면역 조절 경로의 활성화를 촉진한다. 특히, 중간엽 줄기세포에서 분비하는 엑소좀은 줄기세포가 가지는 재생의학적인 치료 효능을 보인다고 알려져 있다. 엑소좀의 기능과 전달하는 요소는 세포 유형에 따라 다르며 세포 스트레스는 엑소좀이 전달하는 요소에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. Among the mesenchymal stem cell secretome (MSC secretome), exosomes play an important role in immune regulation by mediating the delivery of paracrine factors in cell-to-cell communication. Exosomes are small membrane lipid vesicles with a size of 30 to 150 nm that are released into the extracellular space and promote the activation of immune regulatory pathways by delivering proteins, mRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs) or other components to target cells. In particular, exosomes secreted from mesenchymal stem cells are known to show regenerative medical treatment efficacy of stem cells. The functions and transduction factors of exosomes depend on the cell type, and cellular stress can affect the factors exosomes transmit.
소포체(Endoplasmic reticulum)은 세포 항상성을 보장하기 위한 신호 전달 경로 조정에 중요한 역할을 하는데, 새로 합성된 단백질은 ER 막을 통해 접힘(folding) 및 전좌(translocation)를 겪는다. 그러나 스트레스가 많은 병리학적 및 생리적 조건에서 ER이 항상성을 유지할 수 없게 된 경우, UPR(Unfolded Protein Response)이 활성화되어 세포 기능에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 장기적인 ER의 기능 장애 또는 스트레스는 대사성 질환 및 염증 관련 질환을 포함한 많은 질병의 병인에 관여한다. 탑시가르긴(TSG, thapsigargin)은 세포질 칼슘 농도를 높이고 ER 칼슘 저장을 고갈시켜 ER 스트레스를 유발하는 것으로 알려져 있다.The endoplasmic reticulum plays an important role in modulating signal transduction pathways to ensure cellular homeostasis, and newly synthesized proteins undergo folding and translocation through the ER membrane. However, when the ER becomes unable to maintain homeostasis under stressful pathological and physiological conditions, the unfolded protein response (UPR) is activated, which may affect cellular function. Long-term ER dysfunction or stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including metabolic and inflammatory-related diseases. Thapsigargin (TSG, thapsigargin) is known to induce ER stress by increasing cytosolic calcium concentration and depleting ER calcium stores.

TSG로 WJ-MSC를 자극하면 엑소좀 분비가 증가하며, IL-10, COX2 또는 IDO(Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase)와 같은 면역 조절 내지 항염증 인자의 수율 및 발현이 증가하고, 전 염증 인자(IFNγ, TNFα 또는 IL-1β의 발현 수준이 감소하거나 유사하게 유지되었다. 상기와 같은 결과는 TSG-Exo 에서도 유사하게 확인되었으며, 이는 TSG 유도 엑소좀 방출이 염증 또는 노화 관련 분비 메커니즘(SASP)과 다른 분비 메커니즘을 가짐을 시사하였다. Stimulation of WJ-MSCs with TSG increases exosome secretion, increases the yield and expression of immunomodulatory or anti-inflammatory factors such as IL-10, COX2, or IDO (Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase), and increases pro-inflammatory factors ( The expression level of IFNγ, TNFα or IL-1β decreased or remained similar.The same results were also confirmed in TSG-Exo, indicating that TSG-induced exosome release is different from inflammation or senescence-associated secretion mechanism (SASP). It was suggested to have a secretory mechanism.
또한, TSG-Exo는 인간 MSC 유래임에도 불구하고 마우스 대장염 모델에 투여되었을 때 뚜렷한 면역거부 반응이 관찰되지 않았으며, 이는 TSG-Exo가 이종 시스템에서도 숙주에 의해 면역 내성이 있어 향후 임상적용에 유리함을 의미하였다. TSG-Exo는 마우스 대장염 모델에서 염증 반응을 줄이고 장 장애물 무결성(intestinal barrier integrity)을 유지함으로써 대장염을 실질적으로 완화시켰다. TSG-Exo로 처리된 마우스의 대장균 결장에서 Tregs 및 M2 형 대식세포의 유의한 증가는 TSG-Exo의 항염증 효과를 시사한다. 또한, Con A 자극 MNC(단핵세포)와 함께 처리할 때 엑소좀의 항 염증 인자가 MNC에 효율적으로 전달되었기 때문에, 엑소좀 및 엑소좀 처리된 MNC 에 유사한 발현이 발생했다. TSG-Exo는 대조군 엑소좀보다 우수한 T 세포/대식세포 분극화 조절을 나타냈기 때문에, 엑소좀의 분비단백체(secretome)는 엑소좀의 치료 효과 예측에 대한 신뢰할 수 있는 지표가 될 수 있다.In addition, although TSG-Exo is derived from human MSC, a distinct immune rejection response was not observed when administered to a mouse colitis model. meant TSG-Exo substantially alleviated colitis by reducing the inflammatory response and maintaining intestinal barrier integrity in a mouse model of colitis. A significant increase in Tregs and M2-type macrophages in the E. coli colon of mice treated with TSG-Exo suggests an anti-inflammatory effect of TSG-Exo. In addition, similar expression occurred in exosomes and exosome-treated MNCs because anti-inflammatory factors of exosomes were efficiently delivered to MNCs when treated with Con A-stimulated MNCs (monocytes). Since TSG-Exo showed superior T cell/macrophage polarization regulation than control exosomes, the secretome of exosomes can be a reliable indicator for predicting the therapeutic effect of exosomes.
TSG-Exo는 인간 말초 혈액 유래 T 세포 증식과 Th1 및 Th17 분화 억제 효과가 현저하게 향상된 반면, 조절 T 세포 및 M2 유형 대식세포는 대조군 엑소좀 처리군에 비해 풍부했다. 이는 장의 Tregs와 대식세포가 MSC 엑소좀의 항 염증 효과에 대한 매개체가 될 수 있음을 시사한다. Tregs 및 M2 유형 대식세포의 상향 조절은 질병 활동 점수, 조직학적 점수 및 호중구 활동 감소에 의해 제안된대로 장 항상성을 유지했다.TSG-Exo significantly enhanced the effects of human peripheral blood-derived T cell proliferation and inhibition of Th1 and Th17 differentiation, whereas regulatory T cells and M2-type macrophages were abundant compared to the control exosome-treated group. This suggests that intestinal Tregs and macrophages may be mediators for the anti-inflammatory effects of MSC exosomes. Upregulation of Tregs and M2-type macrophages maintained intestinal homeostasis as suggested by disease activity scores, histological scores, and decreased neutrophil activity.
이러한 데이터는 TSG 처리가 WJ-MSC의 엑소좀 방출을 유도하기에 충분하며, TSG-Exo의 면역 조절 특성을 촉진했음을 의미하므로, TSG 처리 MSC 또는 TSG-Exo가 대장염 치료를 위한 새로운 치료방법을 제공할 수 있음을 나타낸다.These data suggest that TSG treatment was sufficient to induce exosome release of WJ-MSCs and promoted the immunomodulatory properties of TSG-Exo, so TSG-treated MSCs or TSG-Exo provide a novel therapeutic method for the treatment of colitis. indicates that you can

WJ-MSC 유래 엑조좀(Exo(s)) 은 표준 초원심분리(도 1b)에 의해 나이브(CTL-Exo) 또는 TSG-프라이밍된 WJ-MSC (TSG-Exo)의 배양 상청액으로부터 분리되었다. WJ-MSC 세포 (3×106)를 100mm 배양 접시에서 1μM 탑시가르긴(Thapsigargin, TSG; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO)으로 24 시간 동안 자극했다. 그 후 배지를 10 % Exo-고갈 FBS가 보충된 배지로 교체했다. Exo-고갈 FBS는 100,000 xg에서 18 시간 동안 초원심분리하여 얻었다. 72 시간 배양 후 배양액을 수집하여 300 xg 에서 10 분, 2,500 xg 에서 25 분, 10,000 xg 에서 1 시간 동안 4 ℃에서 원심분리하였다. 상청액을 0.22 ㎛ 필터를 통해 여과하고 100,000 xg에서 2 시간 동안 초원심분리 하였다. 그 후, Exo 펠렛을 멸균 PBS에서 100,000 xg 에서 2 시간 동안 원심분리하여 세척한 후 200 ㎕의 PBS에 현탁시켜 사용 전까지 -80 ℃에서 보관하였다. Exo 생성을 억제하기 위해 세포를 10 μM GW4869 (Santa cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX)를 포함하는 배양 배지로 12 시간 동안 처리했다. 그 후 배지를 10 % Exo-고갈 FBS가 보충된 배지로 교체했다. 72 시간 후, 배양 상층액을 초원심분리하여 Exo를 분리하고 사용할 때까지 -80 ℃에서 보관하였다(concentrated-CM; 농축-CM). 모든 마우스 실험에 대해 GW4869 처리된 MSC (Exo 분비 억제)에서 유래한 농축-CM을 용매(vehicle) 대조군으로 사용했다. Exo의 양은 총 단백질 측정을 위해 BCA 분석 키트 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA)로 결정하였다. Exo 크기와 수는 제조업체의 지침에 따라 qNano(Izon Science, Christchurch, New Zealand) 및 투과 전자 현미경(TEM; Jeol, Tokyo, Japan)으로 결정하였다. WJ-MSC-derived exosomes (Exo(s)) were isolated from culture supernatants of naive (CTL-Exo) or TSG-primed WJ-MSCs (TSG-Exo) by standard ultracentrifugation ( FIG. 1B ). WJ-MSC cells (3×10 6 ) were stimulated with 1 μM Thapsigargin (Thapsigargin, TSG; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) for 24 h in 100 mm culture dishes. The medium was then replaced with medium supplemented with 10% Exo-depleted FBS. Exo-depleted FBS was obtained by ultracentrifugation at 100,000×g for 18 h. After culturing for 72 hours, the culture medium was collected and centrifuged at 300 xg for 10 minutes, 2,500 xg for 25 minutes, and 10,000 xg for 1 hour at 4 °C. The supernatant was filtered through a 0.22 μm filter and ultracentrifuged at 100,000×g for 2 h. Thereafter, the Exo pellets were washed by centrifugation in sterile PBS at 100,000 x g for 2 hours, and then suspended in 200 μl of PBS and stored at -80° C. until use. To inhibit Exo production, cells were treated with culture medium containing 10 μM GW4869 (Santa cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX) for 12 h. The medium was then replaced with medium supplemented with 10% Exo-depleted FBS. After 72 hours, the culture supernatant was ultracentrifuged to isolate Exo and stored at -80 °C until use (concentrated-CM; concentrated-CM). Concentrated-CM derived from GW4869-treated MSC (inhibited Exo secretion) was used as a vehicle control for all mouse experiments. The amount of Exo was determined with a BCA assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) for total protein determination. Exo size and number were determined by qNano (Izon Science, Christchurch, New Zealand) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM; Jeol, Tokyo, Japan) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
웨스턴 블롯 분석은 WJ-MSC 용해물 및 Exo는 프로테아제 억제제와 함께 RIPA 완충액 (Thermo Fisher)으로 용해되었다. 동일한 양의 단백질을 SDS-PAGE에 적용하고 CD63 (SBI), COX2 (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), IDO (Merk Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany), TGFβ 및 GAPDH (Santa cruz) 1 차 항체로 분석했다. 밴드는 강화된 화학 발광 (Thermo Fisher)을 사용하여 감지되었고 이미지는 LAS-3000 시스템 (Fujifilm, Tokyo, Japan)을 사용하여 캡쳐하였다.Western blot analysis showed that WJ-MSC lysates and Exo were lysed with RIPA buffer (Thermo Fisher) together with protease inhibitors. Equal amounts of protein were subjected to SDS-PAGE and analyzed with CD63 (SBI), COX2 (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), IDO (Merk Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany), TGFβ and GAPDH (Santa cruz) primary antibodies. Bands were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence (Thermo Fisher) and images were captured using a LAS-3000 system (Fujifilm, Tokyo, Japan).
그 결과, 투과 전자 현미경 분석은 정제된 엑소좀이 직경 50-120 nm의 둥근 소포를 포함한다는 것을 보여주었다(도 2 A). 엑소좀 특이적 마커 CD63은 CTL-Exo와 TSG-Exo에서 발현되었으나 세포질 마커 β액틴은 어느 엑소좀에서도 발현되지 않았다(도 2 B). qNano 분석 결과 엑소좀의 평균 입자 직경은 CTL-Exo와 TSG-Exo 모두에서 110-120 nm 였다(도 2 C). TSG-프라이밍된 WJ-MSC 유래 엑소좀의 생산은 나이브 WJ-MSC 유래 엑소좀보다 50 % 더 높았다(도 2 C, D). TSG-Exo는 CTL-Exo에 비해 IL-10, TGFβCOX2 및 IDO의 발현 수준이 유의하게 높았지만 IFNγ, TNFα 및 IL-1β를 포함한 전 염증성 사이토 카인의 발현이 낮았다(도 3 E). mRNA 발현 결과와 일치하여 TGFβCOX2 및 IDO 단백질 발현 수준은 TSG-Exo에서 유의하게 증가했다(도 3 F).As a result, transmission electron microscopy analysis showed that the purified exosomes contained round vesicles with a diameter of 50-120 nm (Fig. 2A). The exosome-specific marker CD63 was expressed in CTL-Exo and TSG-Exo, but the cytoplasmic marker β-actin was not expressed in any exosomes ( FIG. 2B ). As a result of qNano analysis, the average particle diameter of the exosomes was 110-120 nm in both CTL-Exo and TSG-Exo ( FIG. 2C ). The production of TSG-primed WJ-MSC-derived exosomes was 50% higher than that of naive WJ-MSC-derived exosomes (Fig. 2C, D). Compared to CTL-Exo, TSG-Exo had significantly higher expression levels of IL-10, TGFβCOX2 and IDO, but lower expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines including IFNγ, TNFα and IL-1β (Fig. 3E). Consistent with the mRNA expression results, TGFβCOX2 and IDO protein expression levels were significantly increased in TSG-Exo (Fig. 3F).

세포자멸사 분석을 위한 단핵 세포 (MNC)는 비특허문헌 2에 따라 Ficoll-Hypaque (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL) 구배 원심 분리를 사용하여 hUCB에서 분리되었고, 10 % Exo-고갈 FBS가 보충된 RPMI 1640 배지에 재현탁되었다. 제대혈 (UCB) 단위는 기관 심의위원회 승인 (IRB No. 2019-0467-0003)에 따라 2019 년 4 월부터 2020 년 6 월까지 국내 가톨릭 조혈 모세포 은행 (CHSCB)에서 획득했다. MNC를 5 ㎍/㎖ Con A (Concanavalin A)로 자극하고 72 시간 동안 나이브(naive) 또는 TSG-프라이밍된 WJ-MSC 유래 Exos(4㎍)가 있거나 없는 성장 배지에서 96 웰 플레이트 (1×105/웰)에 시드했다. Annexin V/7AAD (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ) 염색을 수행하여 제조업체의 지침에 따라 세포의 세포자멸사(apoptosis)를 결정하고 유세포 분석으로 분석했다.Mononuclear cells (MNC) for apoptosis assay were isolated from hUCB using Ficoll-Hypaque (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL) gradient centrifugation according to Non-Patent Document 2, RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% Exo-depleted FBS resuspended in the medium. Cord blood (UCB) units were obtained from the National Catholic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Bank (CHSCB) from April 2019 to June 2020 under Institutional Review Board approval (IRB No. 2019-0467-0003). MNCs were stimulated with 5 μg/ml Con A (Concanavalin A) and 96 well plates (1×10 5 ) in growth medium with or without Exos (4 μg) from naive or TSG-primed WJ-MSCs for 72 h. /well). Annexin V/7AAD (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ) staining was performed to determine cell apoptosis according to the manufacturer's instructions and analyzed by flow cytometry.
다음으로 활성화된 말초 혈액 유래 단핵 세포(PBMC)의 증식에 대한 TSG-Exo의 면역 억제 효과를 테스트하고자 건강한 기증자의 인간 말초 혈액은 대한 적십자사(Seoul, Korea)에서 가톨릭 대학교 기관 심의위원회 (IRB No. 2019-2891-0003)의 승인을 받아 제공되었다. PBMC를 Ficoll-Hypaque 밀도 구배를 통해 원심 분리하여 분리하고, 10 % Exo-고갈 FBS가 보충된 RPMI 1640 배지에 재현탁되었다.Next, to test the immunosuppressive effect of TSG-Exo on the proliferation of activated peripheral blood-derived mononuclear cells (PBMC), human peripheral blood from healthy donors was collected from the Korean Red Cross (Seoul, Korea) by the Catholic University Institutional Review Board (IRB No. 2019-2891-0003) was provided with permission. PBMCs were isolated by centrifugation through a Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient and resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% Exo-depleted FBS.
T 세포의 증식은 CFSE 희석으로 정량화되었다. 분리된 PBMC를 2μM CFSE(CellTrace CFSE Cell Proliferation Kit, Thermo Fisher Scientific)로 표지했다. CFSE-표지된 PBMC(1×105/웰)는 항-CD3/CD28 마이크로비드(Gibco) 및 재조합 인간 IL-2 (30 U/㎖, Peprotech)의 존재하에 나이브(naive) 또는 TSG 프라이밍된 WJ-MSC 유래 Exos(4 ㎍)가 있거나 없는 96 웰 플레이트에서 공동 배양되었다. 6 일 배양 후, 세포를 CD45, CD3, CD4 또는 CD8(BD Biosciences)에 형광 표지된 인간 단일 클론 항체로 염색하고 유세포 분석으로 측정했다. 모든 세포는 7AAD 음성 세포에서 게이트되었다.T cell proliferation was quantified by CFSE dilution. The isolated PBMCs were labeled with 2 μM CFSE (CellTrace CFSE Cell Proliferation Kit, Thermo Fisher Scientific). CFSE-labeled PBMCs (1×10 5 /well) were treated with either naive or TSG primed WJ in the presence of anti-CD3/CD28 microbeads (Gibco) and recombinant human IL-2 (30 U/ml, Peprotech). -Co-cultured in 96 well plates with or without MSC-derived Exos (4 μg). After 6 days of culture, cells were stained with human monoclonal antibodies fluorescently labeled to CD45, CD3, CD4 or CD8 (BD Biosciences) and measured by flow cytometry. All cells were gated on 7AAD negative cells.
그 결과, Con A(concanavalin A)로 자극된 MNC를 엑소좀으로 처리하면 COX2, NOS2, IDO, IL-10 및 TGFβ의 발현 수준이 증가하는 반면 TNFα 및 IL-1β의 발현 수준은 감소했다. 이는 CTL-Exo로 처리한 것보다 TSG-Exo로 처리한 활성화된 MNC에서 더 두드러졌다(도 3 G). TSG-Exo는 MNC의 초기 세포 사멸을 약간 감소 시켰지만 후기 세포 사멸에는 영향을 미치지 않았는데, 이는 엑소좀 처리가 세포 독성을 유도하지 않았음을 시사한다(도 3 H). CFSE 희석 분석은 TSG-Exo의 첨가가 CTL-Exo보다 총 T, CD4+ T 및 CD8+ T 세포 증식을 더 강력하게 억제함을 나타냈다(도 4 A, B). TSG-Exo 처리된 PBMC에서 초기 분열주기 1에서 세포의 비율은 현저하게 증가했고, 분열주기 4와 5의 세포 비율은 현저하게 감소했다(도 4 C). 이러한 결과는 TSG-프라이밍된 엑소좀이 항염증 사이토카인 생산을 증가시켜 T 세포 증식에 상당한 억제 효과가 있음을 시사한다.As a result, when MNCs stimulated with Con A (concanavalin A) were treated with exosomes, the expression levels of COX2, NOS2, IDO, IL-10 and TGFβ were increased while the expression levels of TNFα and IL-1β were decreased. This was more pronounced in activated MNCs treated with TSG-Exo than those treated with CTL-Exo (Fig. 3G). TSG-Exo slightly reduced early apoptosis of MNCs but had no effect on late apoptosis, suggesting that exosome treatment did not induce cytotoxicity (Fig. 3H). CFSE dilution analysis showed that addition of TSG-Exo more potently inhibited total T, CD4+ T and CD8+ T cell proliferation than CTL-Exo ( FIGS. 4A, B). In TSG-Exo-treated PBMCs, the proportion of cells in early division cycle 1 was significantly increased, and the cell ratio in division cycles 4 and 5 was significantly decreased ( FIG. 4C ). These results suggest that TSG-primed exosomes have a significant inhibitory effect on T cell proliferation by increasing the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines.

It has been reported that MSC exosomes can mediate immunomodulatory effects through regulatory T cell (Tregs) differentiation. Therefore, the present inventors investigated T helper cell (Th) differentiation to confirm the effect of TSG-Exo on specific T cell subsets.
Th 세포는 엑소좀의 존재하에 인간 PBMC로부터 정제된 CD4+ 세포상의 계통-특이적 사이토카인으로 자극함으로써 유도되었다. 구체적으로, PBMC 림프구에서 CD4+ T 세포 분리는 제조업체의 프로토콜에 따라 인간 CD4 T 세포 분리 키트 (Miltenyi Biotec, Marburg, Germany)로 수행하였다. CD4+ T 세포를 항-CD3/CD28 마이크로비드 및 IL-2 (20 ng/㎖)로 자극하고 특정 Th 세포의 분화를 위해 특정 사이토카인을 첨가했다: Th1에 대한 IFNγ㎖) 및 IL-12 (25 ng/㎖); Th17 에 대한 IL-6 (50 g/㎖) 및 TGFβg/㎖); Treg에 대한 TGFβg/㎖) 및 레티노산(10nM). 사이토카인 처리된 CD4+ T 세포 (5×105/웰)는 24 웰 플레이트에 나이브(naive) 또는 TSG 프라이밍된 WJ-MSC 유래 Exos를 첨가하여 5 일 동안 배양되었다. 세포 내 염색을 위해, 염색 전 5 시간 동안 세포 자극 칵테일 (Invitrogen)로 세포를 자극하였다. 세포를 세포 표면 마커인 항-CD3, 항-CD4 및 항-CD25 항체로 염색한 다음 고정/투과화하고 형광 표지된 항-IFNγ항-IL-17A 및 항-Foxp3 항체 (BD Biosciences)로 염색했다. 염색 세포는 유세포 분석으로 분석하였다.Th cells were induced by stimulation with lineage-specific cytokines on CD4+ cells purified from human PBMCs in the presence of exosomes. Specifically, CD4+ T cell isolation from PBMC lymphocytes was performed with a human CD4 T cell isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Marburg, Germany) according to the manufacturer's protocol. CD4+ T cells were stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 microbeads and IL-2 (20 ng/ml) and specific cytokines were added for differentiation of specific Th cells: IFNγ against Th1 and IL-12 (25 ml). ng/ml); IL-6 to Th17 (50 g/ml) and TGFβg/ml); TGFβg/ml for Treg) and retinoic acid (10 nM). Cytokine-treated CD4+ T cells (5×10 5 /well) were cultured for 5 days by adding naive or TSG-primed WJ-MSC-derived Exos to a 24-well plate. For intracellular staining, cells were stimulated with Cell Stimulation Cocktail (Invitrogen) for 5 hours before staining. Cells were stained with cell surface markers anti-CD3, anti-CD4 and anti-CD25 antibodies, then fixed/permeabilized and stained with fluorescently labeled anti-IFNγ anti-IL-17A and anti-Foxp3 antibodies (BD Biosciences). . Stained cells were analyzed by flow cytometry.
그 결과, TSG-Exo와의 공동 배양은 CTL-Exo에 비해 IFNγ+CD4+Th1 및 IL-17A+CD4+Th17 세포의 유도를 크게 감소시켰고 Foxp3+CD25+CD4+ Treg 세포를 증가 시켰다(도 5 D 및 도 6). M1 형 대식세포는 둥근 모양을 보인 반면 M2 형 대식세포는 스핀들 모양의 형태를 나타냈다(도 7).As a result, co-culture with TSG-Exo significantly reduced the induction of IFNγ+CD4+Th1 and IL-17A+CD4+Th17 cells and increased Foxp3+CD25+CD4+ Treg cells compared to CTL-Exo (Fig. 5D and Fig. 6). M1-type macrophages showed a round shape, whereas M2-type macrophages showed a spindle-shaped shape (FIG. 7).
<3-2> TSG-프라이밍된 엑소좀의<3-2> TSG-primed exosome M2형 대식세포 분극 향상 확인Confirmation of improvement in polarization of M2-type macrophages
MSC 엑소좀은 M2 형 대식세포 분극화 유도를 통해 면역 조절 효과를 매개할 수 있다고 보고되었다. 따라서 본 발명자들은 특정 T 세포 하위 집합에 대한 TSG-Exo의 효과를 확인하고자 TSG-Exo가 대식세포의 표현형을 조절할 수 있는지 여부를 조사하였다. It has been reported that MSC exosomes can mediate immunomodulatory effects through the induction of M2-type macrophage polarization. Therefore, the present inventors investigated whether TSG-Exo can modulate the phenotype of macrophages in order to confirm the effect of TSG-Exo on specific T cell subsets.
GM-CSF(M1 유형의 경우)- 또는 M-CSF(M2 유형의 경우)-자극 1 차 인간 대식세포를 M1 유형 사이토카인 또는 M2 유형 사이토카인의 존재하에 엑소좀과 함께 배양했다. 구체적으로, CD14 결합된 마이크로 비드 (Miltenyi Biotec)를 사용하여 hUCB 유래 MNC로부터 CD14+ 단핵구를 분리하였다. 대식세포를 생성하기 위해 단핵구 (5×105/웰)를 GM-CSF (50 ng/㎖; Peprotech) 또는 M-CSF (100 ng/㎖)와 함께 10 % FBS를 포함하는 RPMI 1640 배지 (Gibco)에서 6 일 동안 배양했다. 24 웰 플레이트에 M1 분극화를 위해, GM-CSF 유래 대식세포는 48 시간 동안 나이브(naive) 또는 TSG 프라이밍된 WJ-MSC 유래 Exo와 함께 IFNγng/㎖) + LPS (1 ㎍/㎖)로 자극되었다. M2 분극화를 위해, M-CSF 유래 대식세포는 48 시간 동안 나이브 또는 TSG 프라이밍된 WJ-MSC 유래 Exo와 함께 IL-4 (20 ng/㎖)와 IL-13 (20 ng/㎖)으로 자극되었다. 공동 배양 후, 세포를 CD14, CD80, CD86, CD206 및 CD163 (BD Biosciences)에 형광 표지된 인간 단일 클론 항체로 염색하고 유세포 분석으로 분석했다.GM-CSF (for M1 type)- or M-CSF (for M2 type)-stimulated primary human macrophages were cultured with exosomes in the presence of either M1 type cytokines or M2 type cytokines. Specifically, CD14+ monocytes were isolated from hUCB-derived MNCs using CD14-bound microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec). To generate macrophages, monocytes (5×10 5 /well) were mixed with GM-CSF (50 ng/ml; Peprotech) or M-CSF (100 ng/ml) in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% FBS (Gibco). ) incubated for 6 days. For M1 polarization in 24-well plates, GM-CSF-derived macrophages were stimulated with IFNγng/ml) + LPS (1 μg/ml) with Exo from naive or TSG primed WJ-MSCs for 48 h. For M2 polarization, M-CSF-derived macrophages were stimulated with IL-4 (20 ng/ml) and IL-13 (20 ng/ml) along with naive or TSG-primed WJ-MSC-derived Exo for 48 h. After co-culture, cells were stained with human monoclonal antibodies fluorescently labeled CD14, CD80, CD86, CD206 and CD163 (BD Biosciences) and analyzed by flow cytometry.
그 결과, M1 유형 세포 표면 마커 CD80+ 및 CD86+ 는 CTL-Exo로 배양된 것에 비해 TSG-Exo로 배양된 M1 형 대식세포에서 현저하게 감소되었다. 그러나 M2 유형 세포 표면 마커 CD206+ 및 CD163+ 의 발현은 엑소좀과 함께 배양했을 때 증가했으며, 이 효과는 TSG-Exo 처리 그룹에서 더 컸다(도 5 E 및 도 8). 이러한 결과는 TSG-Exo가 나이브 엑소좀보다 M2 형 대식세포 표현형을 더 효과적으로 유도함을 시사한다. 따라서 MSC에 대한 TSG 처리는 개선된 면역 조절 특성을 가진 엑소좀을 생성할 수 있다.As a result, the M1-type cell surface markers CD80+ and CD86+ were significantly reduced in M1-type macrophages cultured with TSG-Exo compared to those cultured with CTL-Exo. However, the expression of the M2-type cell surface markers CD206+ and CD163+ was increased when incubated with exosomes, and this effect was greater in the TSG-Exo-treated group ( FIGS. 5E and 8 ). These results suggest that TSG-Exo induces the M2-type macrophage phenotype more effectively than naive exosomes. Therefore, TSG treatment for MSCs can generate exosomes with improved immunomodulatory properties.

TSG-프라이밍된 엑소좀의 DSS로 유도된 대장염 완화 효과 확인Confirmation of DSS-induced colitis relief effect of TSG-primed exosomes
본 발명자들은 3 % DSS로 유발된 대장염 마우스 모델에서 TSG-Exo의 잠재적인 보호 효과를 확인했다(도 9 A). The present inventors confirmed the potential protective effect of TSG-Exo in a mouse model of colitis induced by 3% DSS ( FIG. 9A ).
구체적으로, DSS로 유발된 대장염 마우스 모델 제조를 위해 7 일 동안 7 주령 C57BL/6 마우스의 식수에 3 % (w/v) DSS(Dextran sulfate sodium; MP Biomedicals, Santa Ana, CA)을 투여하여 유도하였다. 마우스는 그룹별로 10 마리씩 총 4 그룹으로 나누었다: (1) 대조군 (음성 대조군), (2) GW4869 처리 MSC에서 추출한 농축-CM(용매 대조군, 200㎕)를 투여한 DSS (양성 대조군), (3) 나이브(naive) MSC 유래 Exo를 투여한 DSS, (4) TSG 프라이밍된 MSC 유래 Exos를 투여한 DSS. (3) 및 (4) 그룹은 1 일, 3 일 및 5 일에 마우스에 200 ㎕ PBS에 희석된 200 ㎍ Exo를 복강 내 주사하였다. 10 일째에 마우스를 안락사시켰다. 체중 감소 (0-4), 대변 농도 (0-4), 대변 혈액 (0-4), 윤기(coat roughness) (0-4), 직장 탈출 (0-3), 구부러진 자세 (0-3), 침구 오염 (0-2), 호기심없음/경계없음(not inquisitive/alert) (0-2)을 포함한 질병 활동 지수(disease activity index, DAI)를 사용하여 대장염의 중증도를 매일 평가했다. 모든 동물 실험 절차는 가톨릭 대학교 동물 연구 윤리위원회 (IACUC no. 2019-0301-03)의 승인을 받았다. 용매(vehicle) 대조군으로는 엑소좀 분비를 조절하는 nSMase2(neutral sphingomyelinase supernatant 2) 억제제인 GW4869(10μM)로 처리된 MSC의 배양상청액(GW-CM)을 사용하였다.Specifically, for the preparation of a DSS-induced colitis mouse model, 3% (w/v) DSS (Dextran sulfate sodium; MP Biomedicals, Santa Ana, CA) was administered to the drinking water of 7-week-old C57BL/6 mice for 7 days. did Mice were divided into 4 groups of 10 mice per group: (1) control (negative control), (2) DSS (positive control) administered with concentrated-CM extracted from GW4869-treated MSC (solvent control, 200 μl), (3) ) DSS administered with naive MSC-derived Exo, (4) DSS administered with TSG-primed MSC-derived Exos. Groups (3) and (4) were intraperitoneally injected with 200 μg Exo diluted in 200 μl PBS into mice on days 1, 3 and 5. On day 10, mice were euthanized. Weight loss (0-4), stool consistency (0-4), stool blood (0-4), coat roughness (0-4), rectal prolapse (0-3), crouching (0-3) The severity of colitis was assessed daily using the disease activity index (DAI), which included , bedding contamination (0-2), and not inquisitive/alert (0-2). All animal testing procedures were approved by the Catholic University Animal Research Ethics Committee (IACUC no. 2019-0301-03). As a solvent (vehicle) control, the culture supernatant (GW-CM) of MSCs treated with GW4869 (10 μM), an nSMase2 (neutral sphingomyelinase supernatant 2) inhibitor that regulates exosome secretion, was used.
10 일째에 희생된 마우스의 결장 길이를 측정했다. 결장 조직은 4 % 포름 알데히드(Wako, Osaka, Japan)에 고정하고 파라핀에 묻은 다음 5㎛에서 절편했다. 조직학적 분석을 위해 결장 절편을 헤마톡실린 & 에오신 (H & E)으로 염색했다. 조직 병리학 점수는 염증 세포 침윤 정도 (0-4) 및 조직 손상 정도 (0-4)에 의해 맹검 방식으로 결정되었다.On day 10, the colon length of sacrificed mice was measured. Colonic tissues were fixed in 4% formaldehyde (Wako, Osaka, Japan), embedded in paraffin, and sectioned at 5 μm. For histological analysis, colon sections were stained with hematoxylin & eosin (H & E). Histopathology scores were determined in a blinded manner by the degree of inflammatory cell infiltration (0-4) and tissue damage (0-4).
골수세포형과산화효소(myeloperoxidase, MPO) Colorimetric Activity Assay Kit (Sigma)를 사용하여 대장 조직으로의 호중구의 침투를 측정했다. 결장을 MPO 분석 완충액에서 균질화하고 상청액을 13,000 xg에서 10 분 동안 원심 분리하여 수집했다. 상청액을 MPO 분석 완충액 및 MPO 기질과 혼합하고 25 ℃에서 120 분 동안 배양한 다음 TNB(tetramethylbenzidine) 프로브를 첨가하였다. 분광 광도계(Biotek, Winooski, WT)를 사용하여 412nm에서 흡광도를 측정했다.Infiltration of neutrophils into colonic tissues was measured using myeloperoxidase (MPO) Colorimetric Activity Assay Kit (Sigma). Colons were homogenized in MPO assay buffer and the supernatant was collected by centrifugation at 13,000 x g for 10 min. The supernatant was mixed with MPO assay buffer and MPO substrate, incubated at 25° C. for 120 minutes, and then TNB (tetramethylbenzidine) probe was added. Absorbance was measured at 412 nm using a spectrophotometer (Biotek, Winooski, WT).
그 결과, GW4869는 MSC에서 엑소좀 방출을 성공적으로 억제했다. GW-CM 처리된 대장염 마우스는 지속적인 체중 감소와 대변 일관성, 혈성 설사 및 일반적인 활동과 같은 현저하게 상승된 질병 활동 지수 (DAI)를 나타냈다. 그러나 엑소좀 처리는 특히 TSG-Exo 처리 그룹에서 체중 감소와 DAI를 개선했다(도 9 B, C). 더욱이, DSS 투여에 의한 결장 길이의 단축은 CTL-Exo 처리된 마우스에 비해 TSG-Exo 처리된 마우스에서 현저하게 개선되었다(도 10 D, E). 조직학적 검사는 TSG-Exo 처리된 마우스가 결장 조직 완전성을 유지함을 보여 주었다; 현저한 구조 파괴, 창자 샘 세포(crypt) 손실 및 염증 세포의 침윤 감소; 그리고 CTL-Exo-처리된 마우스에 비해 더 낮은 조직학적 점수를 가졌다(도 10 F, G). 더욱이, 10일째에 희생된 마우스의 호중구 침윤을 나타내는 MPO(myeloperoxidase) 활성은 CTL-Exo-처리된 마우스에 비해 TSG-Exo-처리된 마우스에서 현저하게 감소하였다(도 10 H). 이러한 결과는 TSG-Exo 가 나이브 엑소좀에 비해 DSS로 유도된 대장염에서 장 염증에 대한 보호 활성이 향상되었음을 나타낸다.As a result, GW4869 successfully inhibited exosome release from MSCs. GW-CM-treated colitis mice exhibited markedly elevated disease activity index (DAI) such as persistent weight loss and stool consistency, bloody diarrhea and general activity. However, exosome treatment improved weight loss and DAI, especially in the TSG-Exo treatment group (Fig. 9B, C). Moreover, the shortening of colon length by DSS administration was significantly improved in TSG-Exo-treated mice compared to CTL-Exo-treated mice (Fig. 10D, E). Histological examination showed that TSG-Exo treated mice maintained colonic tissue integrity; marked structural disruption, loss of intestinal crypt and reduced infiltration of inflammatory cells; and had lower histological scores compared to CTL-Exo-treated mice (Fig. 10 F, G). Moreover, MPO (myeloperoxidase) activity, which indicates neutrophil infiltration, of mice sacrificed on day 10 was significantly reduced in TSG-Exo-treated mice compared to CTL-Exo-treated mice ( FIG. 10H ). These results indicate that TSG-Exo has improved protective activity against intestinal inflammation in DSS-induced colitis compared to naive exosomes.

In addition, we next investigated the effect of TSG-primed exosomes on the immune cell profile of DSS-induced colitis mice.
구체적으로, 3 % DSS-대장염 마우스(그룹당 n = 2 ~ 4 마우스)를 10 일에 희생시키고 결장 조직을 수득한 후, 결장 조직에서 Th1, Th2, Th17 및 Treg 세포의 수준을 평가했다. 고유판(Lamina propria) 세포는 장으로부터 분리되었다. 결장 조직을 작은 조각 (3mm × 3mm)으로 자르고 진탕배양기(shaking incubator)에서 2mM EDTA (Sigma)를 포함하는 HBSS 완충액과 함께 220rpm 에서 30 분 동안 배양했다. 37 ℃에서 상피를 제거한 후, 조직을 5 % FBS, 1mg/㎖ Collagenase D (Sigma) 및 0.1 mg/㎖ DNase I (Sigma)를 포함하는 RPMI에서 220rpm 으로 37 ℃에서 60 분 동안 진탕 배양기에서 분해(digest)했다. 분해 샘플을 40 ㎛ 세포 스트레이너를 통해 여과한 다음 300 xg 에서 5 분 동안 원심분리했다. 분리된 세포를 CD11b, F4/80, CD206 및 아르기나제 1 (arginase 1, BD Biosciences)에 대한 형광 표지 항체로 염색하고 유세포 분석으로 분석했다.Specifically, 3% DSS-colitis mice (n = 2 to 4 mice per group) were sacrificed on day 10 and colonic tissues were obtained, and then the levels of Th1, Th2, Th17 and Treg cells in the colon tissues were evaluated. Lamina propria cells were isolated from the intestine. Colon tissue was cut into small pieces (3 mm × 3 mm) and incubated in a shaking incubator with HBSS buffer containing 2 mM EDTA (Sigma) at 220 rpm for 30 minutes. After removing the epithelium at 37 °C, the tissue was digested in RPMI containing 5% FBS, 1 mg/ml Collagenase D (Sigma) and 0.1 mg/ml DNase I (Sigma) at 220 rpm in a shaking incubator at 37 °C for 60 min ( digest). The lysed samples were filtered through a 40 μm cell strainer and then centrifuged at 300×g for 5 minutes. The isolated cells were stained with fluorescently labeled antibodies to CD11b, F4/80, CD206 and arginase 1 (arginase 1, BD Biosciences) and analyzed by flow cytometry.
그 결과, Th1(T-bet), Th2(GATA3) 및 Th17(RORγ계통 전사 인자의 발현 수준은 GW-CM 처리 마우스의 결장 조직에서 증가했지만 엑소좀 처리 마우스에서는 감소했다. 특히, GATA3 발현은 CTL-Exo 처리된 마우스에 비해 TSG-Exo 처리된 마우스에서 더 유의하게 감소하였다. Foxp3 및 Treg 전사 인자는 CTL-Exo 처리된 마우스와 비교하여 TSG-Exo 처리된 마우스에서 유의하게 증가하였다(도 11 A). As a result, the expression levels of Th1 (T-bet), Th2 (GATA3) and Th17 (RORγ lineage transcription factors) were increased in colonic tissues of GW-CM-treated mice, but decreased in exosome-treated mice. In particular, GATA3 expression was expressed in CTL -Exo treated mice compared to TSG-Exo treated mice were more significantly decreased.Foxp3 and Treg transcription factors were significantly increased in TSG-Exo treated mice compared to CTL-Exo treated mice (Fig. 11A) ).
또한, CXCL9, MCP1 및 iNOS의 M1 형 마커 발현은 GW-CM 처리 마우스에 비해 CTL-Exo- 및 TSG-Exo 처리 마우스에서 감소하였다. CXCL9 수준은 CTL-Exo 처리된 마우스에 비해 TSG-Exo 처리된 마우스에서 현저하게 감소하였다. Arg1 및 CD206의 M2 형 마커 발현은 엑소좀 처리에서 증가하였으며, 이 효과는 TSG-Exo 처리군에서 유의하게 더 컸다(도 11 B). In addition, the expression of M1-type markers of CXCL9, MCP1 and iNOS was decreased in CTL-Exo- and TSG-Exo-treated mice compared to GW-CM-treated mice. CXCL9 levels were significantly reduced in TSG-Exo treated mice compared to CTL-Exo treated mice. M2-type marker expression of Arg1 and CD206 was increased in exosome treatment, and this effect was significantly greater in TSG-Exo treatment group ( FIG. 11B ).
DSS로 유도된 대장염 마우스는 음성 대조군 마우스와 비교하여 대장의 고유판에서 F4/80+CD11b+ 세포(대식세포)의 비율이 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났다(도 12 C, D). 엑소좀 처리는 F4/80+CD11b+ 세포의 비율에 영향을 미치지 않았지만(도 12 C, D), 결장 대식세포에서 CD206 및 아르기나제 1의 발현 수준은 TSG-프라이밍된 엑소좀 처리 마우스에서 유의하게 상승했다(도 12 E). 이러한 데이터는 TSG-프라이밍된 엑소좀이 조절 T 세포를 유도하고 M2 형 대식세포를 분극화함으로써 점막 염증을 약화시킨다는 것을 시사한다.DSS-induced colitis mice showed a significant increase in the proportion of F4/80+CD11b+ cells (macrophages) in the lamina propria of the colon compared with the negative control mice ( FIGS. 12C, D ). Although exosome treatment did not affect the proportion of F4/80+CD11b+ cells (Fig. 12 C, D), the expression levels of CD206 and arginase 1 in colonic macrophages were significantly lower in TSG-primed exosome-treated mice. rose (Fig. 12E). These data suggest that TSG-primed exosomes attenuate mucosal inflammation by inducing regulatory T cells and polarizing M2-type macrophages.
