| Objective: To explore the changes in miR-106b-5p expression in exosomes derived from macrophages infected Mtb and its effect on the survival of Mtb in macrophages and the molecular mechanism.Methods:(1)Exosomes from macrophages were extracted and identified by electron microscopy,Western blot and particle size analysis.(2)Exosomes were injected by caudal vein.The mice are divided into three groups,the normal control group(Control),the infected macrophage-derived exosome group(IM-exo),and the normal macrophage-derived exosome group(M-exo).The fluorescence intensities of living bodies and organs(lung,spleen,liver,kidney)at different injection times(12h,36 h,72h)were detected by in vivo imaging to evaluate the organ enrichment of Mtb-infected macrophage-derived exosomes.(3)HE staining to observe the pathological changes of various organs 72 hours after the tail vein injection of different exosomes.(4)Establish an exosomal co-culture macrophage model,laser confocal detection of the exosomal uptake of macrophages;infection after co-culture,colony count and acid-fast staining to detect its influence on Mtb in macrophages;CCK-8,Hoechst/PI,electron microscopy,and oil red O staining were used to detect their effects on the viability,necrosis,apoptosis,and lipid metabolism of macrophages.(5)Expression profile analysis and bioinformatics analysis,select the differentially expressed gene miR-106b-5p and its target gene Creb5 in exosomes,RT-PCR was used to detect the expression changes of miR-106b-5p in serum exosomes,alveolar lavage fluid exosomes,macrophage exosomes,macrophages and serum.(6)RT-PCR verifies the correlation between exosomes and changes in miRNA expression in macrophages.(7)Construct miR-106b-5p overexpression and inhibition model,Creb5 inhibition model,miR-106b-5p and Creb5 dual regulation model,RT-PCR and FAM-siRNA verify the transfection efficiency and miR-106b-5p and The regulatory relationship between Creb5,the effect of colony count and acid-fast staining on Mtb in macrophages;CCK-8,Hoechst/PI,Western blot,and oil red O staining on macrophage viability and macrophage apoptosis,The influence of lipid metabolism pathway.Results:(1)The results of particle size analysis showed that the diameter of exocrine body was about 100 nm,typical tray-like exocrine vesicles could be observed under electron microscope,and four transmembrane protein CD63 could be detected by Western blot.(2)In vivo imaging showed that the body surface fluorescence of IM-Exo group was stronger than that of PBS group and M-Exo group at 12 h,36H and72 h.Organ imaging showed that the lung fluorescence appeared earliest in IM-Exo group at 12 h,36H and 72 h,and was stronger than that in M-Exo group and PBS group.(3)HE staining showed that inflammatory cells gathered in the lungs of mice in IM-Exo group.(4)The exosomal co-culture macrophage model was successfully constructed.The acid-fast staining

macrophage-derived exosomes have a smaller diameter and higher accumulation in the lungs,which can positively regulate the survival of Mtb.(2)MiR-106b-5p is up-regulated in serum exosomes,alveolar lavage fluid exosomes and macrophage exosomes after infection in patients with PTB,and the up-regulation in macrophages is time-dependent and bacterial population-dependent.(3)The positive regulation of Mtb by exosomes may be related to miR-106b-5p targeting the inhibition of Creb5 expression,thereby negatively regulating the expression of CASP9 and CASP3 and positively regulating the expression of SOAT1 and CIDEC,which caused the decrease of macrophage apoptosis and lipid droplets Accumulation increased. |
