    Abstract:
    Intriguingly, microRNAs (miRs) transferred as cargo in extracellular vesicles (EVs) can modulate wound healing through their regulation of fibroblast functions. In this study, we investigated the effects of miR-106b transfer via EVs derived from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) on skin wound healing. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay identified that miR-106b could target and inhibit JMJD3. RT-qPCR analysis showed EVs isolated from HUVECs had enriched expression of miR-106b. LL29 fibroblast cells and HaCaT keratinocytes were co-cultured with HUVEC-derived EVs, in which miR-106b had been up-regulated or down-regulated by its mimic or inhibitor. The co-culture with HUVEC-derived EVs increased miR-106b expression, and reduced the viability and adhesion of LL29 and HaCaT cells, whereas the inhibition of miR-106b in HUVEC-derived EVs enhanced the viability and adhesion of LL29 and HaCaT cells through up-regulation of JMJD3. Next, we showed that JMJD3 overexpression enhanced LL29 and HaCaT cell viability and adhesion through elevating RIPK3, which induced the phosphorylation of AKT during the wound-healing process. We next developed a mouse skin wound model to investigate the actions of miR-106b in vivo after 14 days. The delivery of miR-106b via HUVEC-derived EVs delayed wound healing through suppression of collagen I content and angiogenesis, but had no effects on pro-inflammatory cytokines. In conclusion, miR-106b from HUVEC-derived EVs inhibits JMJD3 and RIPK3, leading to the inhibition of skin wound healing, thus constituting a new therapeutic target.
