LncRNA-MIAT in ADSC-Exos alleviates endometrial fibrosis by targeting miR-150. (A) Schematic representation of the miR-150 site in lncRNA-MIAT-3’UTR. (B) Luciferase activity was assayed in TGF-β1-induced ESC injury co-transfected with miR-150 and luciferase reporters containing lncRNA-MIAT-3’UTR. (C) Western blot analysis of CK19, TGFβR1, and α-SMA protein expression in TGF-β1-induced ESC injury co-cultured with or without ADSC-Exos in the absence or presence of miR-150 mimic. Data are presented as the mean ± SD (n = 3). Two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-test, **P < 0.01; ****P < 0.0001. ADSC-Exos, adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells-exosome; TGF-β1, transforming growth factor-β1; ESC, endometrial epithelial cells; CK19, cytokeratin 19; TGFβR1, Homo sapiens transforming growth factor beta receptor 1; α-SMA, alpha smooth muscle actin. SD, standard deviation.
