摘要

How extracellular vesicles (EVs) may contribute to mechanisms of primary intracellular pathogenesis in Parkinson’s disease (PD) remains unknown. To critically advance our understanding of how EVs influence early-stage PD pathogenesis, we tested the hypothesis that rats acutely exposed to the PD neurotoxin rotenone would produce differential miRNAs in CSF/serum-derived EVs and that such modulation would be responsible for PD-relevant functional alterations in recipient neuronal cells. We discovered that acute rotenone treatment produced significant and specific serum miRNA alterations. Primary midbrain neurons treated with serum EVs from rotenone-exposed rats produced oxidative stress, mitochondrial toxicity, and cell loss in neuronal culture. These mechanisms were dependent on miR-30a-5p and miR-484. Thus, this study has elucidated that differential expression of miRNAs in circulating EVs from serum/CSF of rats is a potential early diagnostic marker for PD, and that the modulation of cellular functions and viability due to extracellular vesicles determines the pathological fate.
