Aging impairs liver regeneration after hepatic surgery in the elderly population, and no effective treatment is available for clinical administration. Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have shown therapeutic potential in liver diseases. This study found that MSCs can reduce senescence-associated markers and promote liver regeneration in aged mice through the secretion of MSC-EVs. Mechanistically, these effects were partially attributed to inducing mitophagy via the Atg4B pathway. The presence of DEAD-Box Helicase 5 (DDX5) in MSC-EVs was found to interact with E2F1 and activate the expression of Atg4B. These findings highlight the clinical application potential of MSC-EVs in preventing severe complications in aged individuals undergoing liver surgery.
Aging is one of the critical factors to impair liver regeneration leading to a high incidence of severe complications after hepatic surgery in the elderly population without any effective treatment for clinical administration. As cell -free nanotherapeutics, mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have been demonstrated the therapeutic potentials on liver diseases. However, the effects of MSC-EVs on the proliferation of aged he-patocytes are largely unclear. In this study, we found MSCs could reduce the expression of senescence-associated markers in the liver and stimulate its regeneration in aged mice after receiving a two-thirds partial hepatectomy (PHx) through their secreted MSC-EVs. Using RNA-Seq and AAV9 vector, we mechanistically found that these effects of UC-MSC-EVs partially attributed to inducing Atg4B-related mitophagy. This effect repairs the mito-chondrial status and functions of aged hepatocytes to promote their proliferation. And protein mass spectrum analysis uncovered that DEAD-Box Helicase 5 (DDX5) enriches in UC-MSC-EVs, which interacts with E2F1 to facilitate its nuclear translocation for activating the expression of Atg4B. Collectively, our data show that MSC-EVs act nanotherapeutic potentials in anti-senescence and promoting regeneration of aged liver by transferring DDX5 to regulate E2F1-Atg4B signaling pathway that induce mitophagy, which highlights the clinical applica-tion valuation of MSC-EVs for preventing severe complications in aged population receiving liver surgery.
