CD73+ ucMSC-EVs augment M2/M1 polarization via A2b adenosine receptor activation. A and B BV2 cells are treated with 1 μg/ml LPS in the presence or absence of 30 μg/ml CD73+hucMSC-EVs, and together with 1 μM MRS1706 (A2bR inhibitor) or 1 μM SCH58261 (A2aR inhibitor). A Intracellular cAMP levels are measured after 10 min stimulation (n = 5). B PKA protein expression in BV2 cells is detected (n = 3). (*p < 0.05 versus control, #p < 0.05 versus CD73+ hucMSC-EVs) CF BV2 cells are treated with 1 μg/ml LPS or 5 μg/ml IL-4 in the presence or absence of 30 μg/ml CD73+hucMSC-EVs, and together with the indicated dose of MRS1706 or SCH58261. The iNOS/Arg-1 protein expression in BV2 cells was either investigated. G The mRNA relative expression level of M1 phase is detected, including TNF-α, IL-1β, iNOS, and CD86. H The mRNA relative expression level of M2 phase is detected, including arginase 1, IL-10, and CD206. (*p < 0.05 versus LPS/IL-4, #p < 0.05 versus LPS/IL-4 + CD73+hucMSC-EVs, n = 3)
