Dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) has been found to disrupt the progression of oral cancer. However, which miRNAs are most effective against oral cancer and how these miRNAs should be delivered are major unanswered problems. We aimed at investigating if human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs)-derived exosomes affect oral cancer development, and the potential regulatory mechanism associated with COL10A1 and miR-101-3p. COL10A1 was upregulated, while miR-101-3p was downregulated in oral cancer, and miR-101-3p targeted COL10A1 as verified by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Meanwhile, exosomes derived from hBMSCs were isolated and then co-cultured with oral cancer cells to identify the role of exosomes, and the results suggested that hBMSCs-derived exosomes overexpressing miR-101-3p inhibited oral cancer progression. Furthermore, tumorigenicity assay in nude mice further confirmed the inhibitory effects of hBMSCs-derived exosomes, loaded with miR-101-3p, on oral cancer, which provides a new theoretical basis in the treatment of oral cancer.
