ABSTRACT
Immunoregulation and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) play pivotal roles in the rejection of allogeneic organ transplantation. This study aims to elucidate the immune-related functional mechanisms of exosomes (Exos) derived from bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) overexpressing IDO1 in the context of allogeneic heart transplantation (HTx) rejection. A rat model of allogeneic HTx was established. Exos were extracted after transfection with oe-IDO1 and oe-NC from rat BMSCs. Exos were administered via the caudal vein for treatment. The survival of rats was analyzed, and reverse transcription qualitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) were employed to detect the expression of related genes. Histopathological examination was conducted using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, and flow cytometry was utilized to analyze T-cell apoptosis. Proteomics and RNA-seq analyses were performed on Exos. The data were subjected to functional enrichment analysis using the R language. A protein interaction network was constructed using the STRING database, and miRWalk, TargetScan, and miRDB databases predicted the target genes, differentially expressed miRNAs, and transcription factors (TFs). Exos from BMSCs overexpressing IDO1 prolonged the survival time of rats undergoing allogeneic HTx. These Exos reduced inflammatory cell infiltration, mitigated myocardial damage, induced CD4 T-cell apoptosis, and alleviated transplantation rejection. The correlation between Exos from BMSCs overexpressing IDO1 and immune regulation was profound. Notably, 13 immune-related differential proteins (Anxa1, Anxa2, C3, Ctsb, Hp, Il1rap, Ntn1, Ptx3, Thbs1, Hspa1b, Vegfc, Dcn, and Ptpn11) and 10 significantly different miRNAs were identified. Finally, six key immune proteins related to IDO1 were identified through common enrichment pathways, including Thbs1, Dcn, Ptpn11, Hspa1b, Il1rap, and Vegfc. Thirteen TFs of IDO1-related key miRNAs were obtained, and a TF-miRNA-mRNA-proteins regulatory network was constructed. Exosome miRNA derived from BMSCs overexpressing IDO1 may influence T-cell activation and regulate HTx rejection by interacting with mRNA.
