Abstract

Background Osteoblast differentiation is a vital process for fracture healing, and exosomes are nanosized membrane vesicles that can deliver therapeutic drugs easily and safely. Macrophages participate in the regulation of various biological processes in vivo, and macrophage-derived exosomes (MD-Exos) have recently been a topic of increasing research interest. However, few study has explored the link between MD-Exos and osteoblast differentiation. Herein, we sought to identify miRNAs differentially expressed between M1 and M2 macrophage-derived exosomes, and to evaluate their roles in the context of osteoblast differentiation. Results We found that microRNA-5106 (miR-5106) was significantly overexpressed in M2 macrophage-derived exosomes (M2D-Exos), while its expression was decreased in M1 macrophage-derived exosomes (M1D-Exos), and we found that this exosomal miRNA can induce bone mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) osteogenic differentiation via directly targeting the Salt-inducible kinase 2 and 3 ( SIK2 and SIK3 ) genes. In addition, the local injection of both a miR-5106 agonist or M2D-Exos to fracture sites was sufficient to accelerate healing in vivo. Conclusions Our study demonstrates that miR-5106 is highly enriched in M2D-Exos, and that it can be transferred to BMSCs wherein it targets SIK2 and SIK3 genes to promote osteoblast differentiation.
