Emerging evidence has revealed that excessive activation of macrophages may result in an adverse lung inflammation involved in sepsis-related acute lung injury (ALI). However, it has never been clearly identified whether peripheral circulating serum exosomes participate in the pathogenesis of sepsis-related ALI. Therefore, the purposes of our study were to investigate the effect of serum exosomes on macrophage activation and elucidate a novel mechanism underlying sepsis-related ALI. Here we found that exosomes were abundant in the peripheral blood from ALI mice and selectively loaded microRNAs (miRNAs), such as miR-155. In vivo experiments revealed that intravenous injection of serum exosomes harvested from ALI mice, but not control mice, increased the number of M1 macrophages in the lung, and it caused lung inflammation in naive mice. In vitro, we demonstrated that serum exosomes from ALI mice delivered miR-155 to macrophages, stimulated nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) activation, and induced the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6. Furthermore, we also showed that serum exosome-derived miR-155 promoted macrophage proliferation and inflammation by targeting SHIP1 and SOCS1, respectively. Collectively, our data suggest the important role of circulating exosomes secreted into peripheral blood as a key mediator of septic lung injury via exosome-shuttling miR-155.
