摘要
Objective:To investigate the effect of exosomes secreted by decidual macrophages on trophoblast cells and their molecular mechanism.Methods:The decidual tissues of patients with preeclampsia(PE)and normal-term pregnant women were collected.Macrophages were obtained by the density gradient method and then flow cell sorting,then the exosomes were extracted.The structure of the exosomes was observed by transmission electron microscope.The expression of CD63,a marker protein of the exocrine body,was detected by western blot,and the exosomes were identified.CCK-8 was used to detect the effect of exosomes on trophoblast cell viability.Transwell migration experiment was used to detect the influence on migration ability.The expression of miR-146a-5p in exosomes was detected by qPCR.The effect of exosomes on the expression of HIF1αprotein in trophoblasts was detected by western blot and detection of the binding site between miR-146a-5p and HIF1αby double luciferase reporter gene was conducted.Results:The exosomes of macrophages present a"cake"structure with a middle depression about 30-130 nm in diameter,and CD63 is highly expressed,which conforms to the characteristics of exosomes.Compared with the normal group,the exosomes of decidual macrophages in the PE group inhibited the activity and migration of trophoblast cells(P<0.001).The expression of miR-146a-5p in the exosomes of decidual macrophages in the PE decreased significantly,and after exosomes of PE decidual macrophages treating trophoblast cells,the protein expression of HIF1αin trophoblast cells was significantly increased.There are targeted binding sites between miR-146a-5p and HIF1α.Conclusion:PE decidual macrophage exosomes can inhibit the viability and migration of trophoblast cells,which may be related to the decreased expression of miR-146a-5p in exosomes,thus promoting HIF1αprotein expression of trophoblast cells.
