Due to the limitations of existing methods to treat AGA, the use of multi-origin mesenchymal stromal cell-derived exosomes has been proposed. However, the functions and mechanisms of action of exosomes secreted by adipose mesenchymal stromal cells (ADSCs-Exos) in AGA are still unclear. Using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) analysis, immunofluorescence staining, scratch assays, and Western blotting, it was found that ADSC-Exos contributed to the proliferation, migration, and differentiation of dermal papilla cells (DPCs) and up-regulated the expression of cyclin, \u03b2-catenin, versican, and BMP2. ADSC-Exos also mitigated the inhibitory effects of DHT on DPCs and down-regulated transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-\u03b21) and its downstream genes. Moreover, high-throughput miRNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis identified 225 genes that were co-expressed in ADSC-Exos; of these, miR-122-5p was highly enriched and was found by luciferase assays to target SMAD3. ADSC-Exos carrying miR-122-5p antagonized DHT inhibition of hair follicles, up-regulated the expression of \u03b2-catenin and versican in vivo and in vitro, restored hair bulb size and dermal thickness, and promoted the normal growth of hair follicles. So, ADSC-Exos enhanced the regeneration of hair follicles in AGA through the action of miR-122-5p and the inhibition of the TGF-\u03b2\/SMAD3 axis. These results suggest a novel treatment option for the treatment of AGA.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms24065703","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,17]],"date-time":"2023-03-17T03:33:57Z","timestamp":1679024037000},"page":"5703","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":77,"title":["Adipose Mesenchymal Stromal Cell-Derived Exosomes Carrying MiR-122-5p Antagonize the Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on Hair Follicles by Targeting the TGF-\u03b21\/SMAD3 Signaling Pathway"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Yunxiao","family":"Liang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermato-Venereology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou 510000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Tang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermato-Venereology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou 510000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xue","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Rehabilitaion Medicine, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou 510630, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cuixiang","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermato-Venereology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou 510000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Miao","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermato-Venereology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou 510000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Miaojian","family":"Wan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermato-Venereology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou 510000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"217","DOI":"10.1007\/s40257-014-0077-5","article-title":"Androgenetic alopecia: An evidence-based treatment update","volume":"15","author":"Varothai","year":"2014","journal-title":"Am.
