Resveratrol (RSV) has been shown to prevent epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in different diseases by modulating several signaling pathways, and RSV can prevent EMT by modulating the signaling of the TGF-β/Smad axis. In the development of renal ischemia‒reperfusion injury (RIRI), RSV and MSC-derived exosomes could ameliorate RIRI via different signaling pathways. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of RSV plus MSC-derived exosomes on the prognosis of RIRI. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to measure the expression of E-CAD, SMA, COL10A1, VMT and MMP-7 mRNA in TCMK-1 cells and mice under various conditions. HE and Masson staining were used to evaluate kidney injury and fibrosis in mice under various conditions. RSV effectively maintained the TGF-β- and AA-induced upregulation of E-CAD, SMA, COL10A1, VMT and MMP-7 mRNA expression in TCMK-1 cells. Moreover, MSC-derived exosomes effectively reinforced the effect of RSV on reducing the TGF-β- and AA-induced upregulation of E-CAD, SMA, COL10A1, VMT and MMP-7 mRNA expression in TCMK-1 cells. Furthermore, MSC-derived exosomes enhanced the capability of RSV to maintain the RIRI-induced increases in Cr and BUN, as well as the upregulation of E-CAD, SMA, COL10A1, VMT and MMP-7 mRNA expression in mice. In addition, MSC-derived exosomes enhanced the capability of RSV to decrease RIRI-induced kidney injury and fibrosis in mice. Our findings showed that the administration of MSC-derived exosomes and RSV could suppress the TGF-β-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition. This suppressive effect was promoted by the coadministration of MSC-derived exosomes and RSV.

Resveratrol reinforces the therapeutic effect of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes against renal ischemia‒reperfusion injury (RIRI)-associated fibrosis by suppressing TGF-β-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
