BMSC-Derived Exosomes Ameliorate LPS-Induced Acute Lung Injury by miR-384-5p-Controlled Alveolar Macrophage Autophagy

Figure 7

Exosomes regulated LPS-induced inflammatory cytokines in ALI rats. (a) Serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 were measured by ELISA. (b) BALF levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 were also measured. The results showed that exosomes attenuated LPS-induced TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 elevation, and promoted IL-10 production in serum and BALF. Values obtained from three independent experiments are expressed as mean ± SD and compared using ANOVA followed by LSD test. vs. sham group; vs. sham group; #P <0.05 vs. LPS group; ##P <0.01 vs. LPS group.
