Abstract

Methods are disclosed for treating a subject with a disorder, such as, but not limited to, a) fibrosis of an organ or tissue; b) solid organ transplant rejection; or c) a cardiac disease that is not myocardial infarction or myocardial ischemia. These methods include selecting a subject having or at risk of having the disorder, and administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of isolated nanovesicles derived from an extracellular matrix, wherein the nanovesicles contain interleukin (IL)-33 and comprise lysyl oxidase, and wherein the nanovesicles a) do not express CD63 or CD81, or b) are CD63 lo CD81 lo . In additional embodiments, methods are disclosed for increasing myoblast differentiation.

Claims (19)

1. A method for treating or inhibiting heart transplant rejection in a subject who has received a hear transplant comprising:

administering to the subject who has received a heart transplant a therapeutically effective amount of isolated nanovesicles derived from an extracellular matrix, wherein the nanovesicles comprise interleukin (IL)-33 and lysyl oxidase, and wherein the nanovesicles a) do not express CD63 or CD81, or b) are CD63 lo CD81 lo ,

thereby treating or inhibiting heart transplant rejection in the subject.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the extracellular matrix is a mammalian extracellular matrix.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the mammalian extracellular matrix is a pig, cow, or sheep extracellular matrix.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the extracellular matrix is from esophageal tissue, urinary bladder, small intestinal submucosa, dermis, umbilical cord, pericardium, cardiac tissue, or skeletal muscle.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the nanovesicles comprise miR-145 and/or miR-181.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the nanovesicles are administered to the transplanted heart of the subject.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the nanovesicles are administered intravenously.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the nanovesicles are administered weekly, bimonthly or monthly to the subject.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising administering to the subject an immunosuppressive agent, wherein the immunosuppressive agent is a calcineurin inhibitor, an antiproliferative agent, an mTOR inhibitor, and/or a steroid.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the calcineurin inhibitor is tacrolimus or cyclosporine; wherein the antiproliferative agent is mycophenolate; wherein the mTOR inhibitor is sirolimus, and/or wherein the steroid is prednisone, hydrocortisone, or cortisone.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is a human.

12. The method of claim 3 , wherein the extracellular matrix is urinary bladder matrix (UBM).

13. The method of claim 3 , wherein the extracellular matrix is small intestinal submucosa (SIS) or dermis.

14. A method for treating or inhibiting chronic heart transplant rejection in a subject comprising:

administering to a subject who has received a heart transplant a therapeutically effective amount of isolated nanovesicles derived from a mammalian extracellular matrix, wherein the nanovesicles comprise interleukin (IL)-33 and lysyl oxidase, and wherein the nanovesicles a) do not express CD63 or CD81, or b) are CD63 lo CD81 lo ,

thereby treating or inhibiting chronic heart transplant rejection in the subject.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the method decreases monocyte-derived dendritic cells in the heart transplant in the subject.
