EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH
Female Balb/c mice were subjected to either the 9.5-week model of ovalbumin and naphthalene (OVA/NA)-induced chronic allergic airway disease (AAD) or 3-week model of bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis; then administered increasing concentrations of AEC-exosomes (5 μg or 25μg), with or without serelaxin (0.5mg/kg/day) for 7-days. 1x106 AECs co-administered with serelaxin over the corresponding time-period were included for comparison in both models, as was pirfenidone-treatment of the BLM model. Control groups received saline/corn oil or saline, respectively.KEY RESULTS
Both experimental models presented with significant tissue inflammation, remodelling, fibrosis and airway/lung dysfunction at the time-points studied. While AEC-exosome (5 μg or 25μg)-administration alone demonstrated some benefits in each model, serelaxin was required for AEC-exosomes (25μg) to rapidly normalise chronic AAD-induced airway fibrosis and airway reactivity, and BLM-induced lung inflammation, epithelial damage and subepithelial/basement membrane fibrosis. Combining serelaxin with AEC-exosomes (25μg) also demonstrated broader protection compared to co-administration of serelaxin with 1x106 AECs or pirfenidone.
