Extracellular Vesicles in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Abstract: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by the progression of irreversible airflow limitation and is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although several crucial mechanisms of COPD pathogenesis have been studied, the precise mechanism remains unknown. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies, are released from almost all cell types and are recognized as novel cell–cell communication tools. They have been shown to carry and tra… Show more

“…Cigarette smoke can induce macrophages to release exosomes with protease activity. Besides, exosomes containing miR-210 derived from bronchial epithelial cells induced by cigarette smoke can promote myo broblast differentiation (20). Based on this, we hypothesized that exosomes derived from alveolar macrophages of COPD may affect the function of bronchial epithelial cells through intercellular communication.…”

“…MP has been shown to participate in cell-to-cell communication for various physiological and pathophysiological functions. The communication can be mediated by surface molecules and the contents inside MP such as miRNA [ 20 21 ]. Here evidences for another role of MP as an innate mucosal defense are demonstrated.…”

“…EVs have been isolated and characterized from different body fluids, such as plasma, urine, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Of interest to respiratory medicine, EVs are reportedly released from both immune and structural cells in the lungs, and have recently been reported to play a role in pathophysiology of asthma (29), COPD (30), and pulmonary artery hypertension (29,31). Potential applications of EVs as biomarkers for lung diseases and novel therapeutic targets have emerged (32)(33)(34)(35).…”

“…In parallel, the contribution of EVs derived from macrophages, epithelial cells, and endothelial cells to COPD pathophysiology highlights their potential as novel therapeutic targets. Elimination of these EVs, which contain nucleic acids or proteins as mediators of intracellular communication involved in disease pathogenesis, may be achieved through several different therapeutic approaches, including capture of circulating EVs, disruption of EV uptake by recipient cells, and inhibition of EV production or secretion (30,84).…”
