Background: Ischemia-reperfusion injury(IR)can cause changes in cell structure and function in various tissues and organs,causing cell death.Among them,cardiomyocyte apoptosis is the main cause of cell death caused by ischemia-reperfusion injury.Bone Mesenchymal Stem cells(BMSCs)are stem cells that can significantly repair infarcted myocardium and improve myocardial remodeling and cardiac function.Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are now widely used in basic research,mainly because of its high proliferative activity,easy availability,anti-inflammatory effects,and minimal immune rejection.Transplantation of MSCs for myocardial infarction can improve ventricular remodeling and cardiac function.Its main role is the paracrine mechanism of cells,and exosomes(exo),which play a major role in the paracrine effect of stem cells.Exosomes are cell-derived microbubble structures that exert cellular information transmission by transferring proteins and genetic material.Endogenous stem cells secrete exosomes to the injured site to repair the myocardium during ischemia-reperfusion injury.Previous studies on the pathophysiology of hypoxia-hypoxia reoxygenation(HR)have focused on oxygen free radicals,calcium overload,inflammatory response,mitochondrial damage,apoptosis,and autophagy.Among them,autophagy and mitochondrial autophagy are thought to play a very important role in myocardial HR.Autophagy is a process in which damaged,denatured,aging long-lived proteins and organelles are transported to a lysosome for enzymatic digestion,and the substrate is reduced to its constituent components for reuse by the cells.The occurrence of mitochondrial autophagy is mainly caused by the production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and the damage of mitochondria.Depolarization of the mitochondria in the cells is damaged,and the damaged mitochondria are specifically encapsulated into the autophagosome and fused with the lysosome to complete the degradation and maintain the stability of the intracellular environment.Oxidative stress can both activate mitochondrial autophagy and inhibit autophagy by disrupting the autophagy regulatory pathway.In vivoand in vitro experiments have confirmed that in the process of ischemia-reperfusion injury,moderately elevated levels of autophagy in hypoxia stage can alleviate the damage caused by hypoxia.When ischemic myocardial tissue restores nutrient and oxygen supply,A large accumulation of ROS shows that autophagy is significantly up-regulated,and with the excessive increase of autophagy levels,it is usually accompanied by an increase in autophagic death and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.At present,no studies have been reported on the regulation of cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by hypoxia-reoxygenation(HR)by autophagy and mitochondrial autophagy in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosomes.This study was to investigate the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosomes on H9c2 apoptosis,autophagy and mitochondrial autophagy based on HR-induced H9c2 cardiomyocyte apoptosis.To explore the mutual regulation mechanism of exosomes on the microenvironment of injured tissues,and provide new therapeutic targets and strategies for non-cell therapy of stem cells.Part Ⅰ Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosome can improve cardiac function after myocardial infarction in ratsObjective: To investigate the effects of exosome from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)on cardiac function in rats after acute myocardial infarction.Methods:(1)Rat MSCs required for the experiment were cultured by differential marrow centrifugation.Flow cytometry(FCM)was used to identify MSCs surface marker antigens(CD29 and CD90 and CD45)grown to P3-P6 generation;(2)Extracellular centrifugation(UC)was used to extract MSCs from cell culture media.Exo;Western Blot was used to detect the expression of transmembrane transmembrane proteins CD9,CD63 and Alix on exosomes;TEM was used to observe the morphological characteristics of exosomes;nanoparticle tracking analysis(NTA)The inner diameter and inner diameter distribution range of Exo were analyzed.(3)24 SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: SHAM group,MI group,PBS group and EXO group,6 rats in each group were established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery.Rat myocardial infarction model,exudate and PBS were injected into the peripheral area of myocardial infarction;(4)The improvement of cardiac function in rats 28 days after myocardialinfarction was observed;(5)HE staining and MASSON staining were performed for 14 days after myocardial infarction.Myocardial tissue and fibrinogen changes;(6)Myocardial protein was extracted on day 3 of myocardial infarction to observe changes in autophagy in myocardial tissue;(7)Heart tissue protein was extracted on day 14 of myocardial infarction to determine changes in apoptotic protein levels.Results:(1)Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells isolated and cultured in vitro showed that some cells began to adhere to the wall after 48 hours of culture.The cells in the P3-P6 generation showed fish-like and swirling growth.The surface cells of FCM showed that the mesenchymal stem cells The positive surface markers CD29 and CD90 were up to 96.91% and 97.66%,respectively,and the negative marker CD45 was 1.45%(P<0.05).(2)The exosome of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was extracted by ultracentrifugation(UC).The results of protein electrophoresis showed that the surface markers of Exosome were positive for CD9,CD63 and Alix(P<0.05).TEM can observe different sizes,typical tea tray-like,double-layer membrane structure;NTA results show: Exosome average particle size is 87.5nm;(3)ECG results show ST-lead ST elevation after ligation of coronary artery,TTC The results showed that the heart became white after ligation of the coronary artery.(4)The cardiogram of the rats after 28 days of myocardial infarction showed that the ejection fraction of cardiac function in the EXO group was increased by 30.32%±7.21% compared with the MI group.Up to 55.31%±8.33%(P<0.05);(5)14 days after myocardial infarction,HE staining and MASSON staining were performed on the heart tissue.HE staining showed that the myocardial tissue of the MI group was disordered,and some of the myocardial cells had disappeared.The formation of a large number of fibrous tissues,the integrity of myocardial tissue in the EXO group was better than MI,and the fibrous scar tissue was less.The results of MASSON staining showed that the number of collagen fibers in the EXO group was significantly lower than that in the MI group.(6)The autophagy-associated protein in the myocardial tissue of each group was measured on the third day after myocardial infarction: the MI compared with the SHAM group.The ratio of LC3-II/ LC3-I in the group was significantly increased,and the P62 was decreased(P<0.05).Compared with MI group,the ratio of LC3-II/LC3-I protein in EXO group decreased,and the expression of P62 protein increased(P<0.05).(7)Apoptotic protein in myocardial tissue of each group was determined on the 7th day after myocardial infarction.The expression of the results showed that compared with the SHAM group,the ratio of active/pro caspase3 and Bax protein in the MI group were increased(P<0.05)and Bcl-2 was decreased(P<0.05),compared with the MI group.The ratio of active/pro caspase3 in EXO group,Bax protein expression level decreased,and Bcl-2 increased(P<0.05).Conclusion: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosomes can improve ventricular remodeling and cardiac function in rats after acute m yocardial infarction.Part Ⅱ Role of autophagy and mitochondrial autophagy in cardiomyocyte-derived mesenchymal stem cell exosome miR--19 b in
