ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Stroke is a devastating disease affecting populations worldwide and is the primary cause of long-term disability. The inflammatory storm plays a crucial role in the progression of stroke. In the acute phase of ischemic stroke, there is a transient increase in anti-inflammatory M2 microglia followed by a rapid decline. Due to the abundant phospholipid in brain tissue, lipid peroxidation is a notable characteristic of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), constituting a structural foundation for ferroptosis in M2 microglia. Slowing down the decrease in M2 microglia numbers and controlling the inflammatory microenvironment holds significant potential for enhancing stroke recovery.

RESULTS:

We found that the ferroptosis inhibitor can modulate inflammatory response in MCAO mice, characterizing that the level of M2 microglia-related cytokines was increased. We then confirmed that different subtypes of microglia exhibit distinct sensitivities to I/R-induced ferroptosis. Adipose-derived stem cells derived exosome (ADSC-Exo) effectively decreased the susceptibility of M2 microglia to ferroptosis via Fxr2/Atf3/Slc7a11, suppressing the inflammatory microenvironment and promoting neuronal survival. Furthermore, through plasmid engineering, a more efficient M2 microglia-targeted exosome, termed M2pep-ADSC-Exo, was developed. In vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrated that M2pep-ADSC-Exo exhibits significant targeting specificity for M2 microglia, further inhibiting M2 microglia ferroptosis and improving neurological function in ischemic stroke mice.

CONCLUSION:

Collectively, we illustrated a novel potential therapeutic mechanism that Fxr2 in ADSC-Exo could alleviate the M2 microglia ferroptosis via regulating Atf3/Slc7all expression, hence inhibiting the inflammatory microenvironment, improving neurofunction recovery in cerebral I/R injury. We obtained a novel exosome, M2pep-ADSC-Exo, through engineered modification, which exhibits improved targeting capabilities toward M2 microglia. This provides a new avenue for the treatment of stroke.
