Do BMSC-derived exosomes alleviate ischemic myocardial injury via the miR-125b-5p/BTG2 pathway in murine models?
This preclinical study investigates the mechanistic role of the miR-125b-5p/BTG2 pathway in how BMSC-derived exosomes protect against ischemic myocardial injury.
MicroRNAs mediate the protective effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (BMSC-Exos) against myocardial injury. This study aimed to elucidate the specific role of exosomal miR-125b-5p in ischemic myocardial injury, focusing on its regulatory interaction with B-cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2). Murine BMSCs were transfected with miR-125b-5p inhibitor or negative-control (NC) oligonucleotides and then used to generate miR-125b-5p-knockdown (miR-125b-5p
