الوصف: | Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most frequent and severe idiopathic interstitial pneumonia. It is a chronic and progressive disease with a poor prognosis and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. This disease has no cure; therefore, there is a clinical need to search for alternative treatments with greater efficacy. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from Zingiber officinale (EVZO) in a murine model of bleomycin (BLM)-induced IPF administered through an osmotic minipump. EVZO had an average size of 373 nm and a spherical morphology, as identified by scanning electron microscopy. Label-free proteomic analysis of EVZOs was performed by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry, and 20 proteins were identified. In addition, we demonstrated the protease activity of EVZO by gelatin-degrading zymography assay and the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of EVZO by an enzymatic assay. In the BLM-induced IPF mouse model, nasal administration of 50 μg of EVZO induced recovery of alveolar space size and decreased cellular infiltrate, collagen deposition, and expression of α-SMA-positive cells. Additionally, EVZO inhibited inflammatory markers such as iNOS and COX-2, lipid peroxidation, and apoptotic cells. These results show that EVZO may represent a novel natural delivery mechanism to treat IPF. |
