Abstract

Transplantation remains the definitive treatment for end-stage organ failures, but its efficacy is frequently compromised by immune rejection. This study introduces a novel strategy by utilizing tumor-derived exosomes from B16-F10 melanoma cells (B16-Exo), diverging from the conventional use of immune cell-derived exosomes, to alleviate post-transplantation immune rejection. Utilizing murine corneal transplantation as a model, it is demonstrated that B16-Exo significantly reduces immune rejection, evidenced by decreased corneal opacity, neovascularization, and immune dysregulation, while enhancing postoperative survival. Proteomic analyses reveal differential expression of pivotal proteins in B16-Exo, notably the JAK2 protein within the JAK-STAT signaling pathway, which has been mechanistically demonstrated to amplify the activity of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and inhibit T cell proliferation. These findings demonstrate the significant immunomodulatory effect of B16-Exo in transplant immunology, supporting the continued exploration of tumor-derived exosomes as a platform to uncover novel immunosuppressive mechanisms in transplantation.
