ABSTRACT
Utilizing transplanted human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) for cartilage defects yielded advanced tissue regeneration, but the underlying mechanism remain elucidated. Early after HUMSCs delivery to the defects, we observed substantial apoptosis. The released apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) of HUMSCs promoted cartilage regeneration by alleviating the chondro-immune microenvironment. ApoVs triggered M2 polarization in macrophages while simultaneously facilitating the chondrogenic differentiation of endogenous MSCs. Mechanistically, in macrophages, miR-100-5p delivered by apoVs activated the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway to promote M2 polarization. In MSCs, let-7i-5p delivered by apoVs promoted chondrogenic differentiation by targeting the eEF2K/p38 MAPK axis. Consequently, a cell-free cartilage regeneration strategy using apoVs combined with a decellularized cartilage extracellular matrix (DCM) scaffold effectively promoted the regeneration of osteochondral defects. Overall, new mechanisms of cartilage regeneration by transplanted MSCs were unconcealed in this study. Moreover, we provided a novel experimental basis for cell-free tissue engineering-based cartilage regeneration utilizing apoVs.
