ABSTRACT
The exact mechanisms underlying the initiation and exacerbation of Parkinson's disease (PD) by paraquat remain unclear. We have revealed that exosomes mediate neurotoxicity induced by low dose paraquat exposure by transmitting intercellular signaling. Exposure to 40 µM paraquat promoted exosome release from mouse microglia cells (BV2) in vitro. Paraquat exposure at 100 µM caused degeneration of mouse dopaminergic MN9D cells and inhibited microglia exosome uptake by fluorescently labeling exosomes. We established an incubation model for exosomes and dopaminergic neuron cells under PQ treatment. The results indicated that microglial exosomes alleviated degeneration, increasing proliferation and PD-related protein expression of dopaminergic neurons; however, paraquat reversed this effect. Then, through exosome high-throughput sequencing and qRT-PCR experiments, miR-92a-3p and miR-24-3p were observed to transfer from exosomes to dopaminergic neurons, inhibited by paraquat. The specificity of miR-92a-3p and miR-24-3p was verified in PD patients exosomes, indicating the potential diagnostic value of the exosomal miRNAs in paraquat-induced PD. These results suggest glia-neuron communication in paraquat-induced neurodegeneration and may identify stable paraquat-mediated PD biomarkers, offering clues for early recognition and prevention of pesticide-induced degenerative diseases.
