Microglial epigenetic memory is associated with accelerated resolution of inflammatory pain induced by prophylactic macrophage-derived small extracellular vesicles

Xuan Luo, Jason R. Wickman, Jason DaCunza, Y Z Tian, Ahmet Saçan, Seena K. Ajit

The paper shows that macrophage-derived sEVs reduce inflammatory pain by reprogramming microglial epigenetic memory, specifically through H3K4me1 enrichment and SETD7 inhibition.

Inflammatory pain resolution by mouse serum-derived small extracellular vesicles

Zhucheng Lin, Xuan Luo, Jason R. Wickman, Deepa Reddy, Jason DaCunza, Richa Pande, Yuzhen Tian, Ezgi Kasimoglu, Vivian Triana, Jingyun Lee, Cristina M. Furdui, Desmond Pink, Ahmet Saçan, Seena K. Ajit

This study shows that mouse serum-derived small extracellular vesicles can reduce inflammatory pain through opioid signaling and immunomodulation.
