Extracellular Vesicles (Secretomes) from Human Trophoblasts Promote the Regeneration of Skin Fibroblasts
2021
To date, placental trophoblasts have been of interest in the fields of obstetrics and gynecology, mainly due to their involvement in the formation of a connection between the mother and fetus that aids in placental development and fetal survival. However, the regenerative capacities of trophoblasts for application in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering are poorly understood. Here, we aim to determine the skin regeneration and anti-aging capacities of trophoblast-derived conditioned medium (TB-CM) and exosomes (TB-Exos) using human normal dermal fibroblasts (HNDFs). TB-CM and TB-Exos treatments significantly elevated the migration and proliferation potencies of HNDF cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. When RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to investigate the mechanism underlying TB-CM-induced cell migration on scratch-wounded HNDFs, the increased expression of genes associated with C-X-C motif ligand (CXCL) chemokines, toll-like receptors, and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling was observed. Furthermore, treatment of intrinsically/extrinsically senescent HNDFs with TB-CM resulted in an enhanced rejuvenation of HNDFs via both protection and restoration processes. Gene expression of extracellular matrix components in the skin dermis significantly increased in TB-CM- and TB-Exos-treated HNDFs. These components are involved in the TB-CM and Exo-mediated regeneration and anti-aging of HNDFs. Thus, this study demonstrated the regenerative and anti-aging efficacies of trophoblast-derived secretomes, suggesting their potential for use in interventions for skin protection and treatment.
