Endothelial cell damage is an important feature of preeclampsia (PE). Human umbilical mesenchymal stem-cell-derived extracellular vesicles (HUMSCs-derived EVs) have been shown to have therapeutic effects on a variety of diseases and tissue damage. However, the therapeutic effect of HUMSCs-derived EVs on endothelial injury in PE remains unclear. This study explored the possible mechanism of HUMSCs-derived EVs in the treatment of endothelial cell injury. Tumor necrosis factor α- and lipopolysaccharide-induced endothelial dysfunction models were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of HUMSCs-derived EVs on endothelial injury. We further constructed PE mouse models to explore the function of HUMSCs-derived EVs in vivo. The changes of metabolites in endothelial cells after HUMSCs-derived EVs treatment were analyzed by metabolomics analysis and further validated by cell experiments. HUMSCs-derived EVs treatment can alleviate endothelial cell injury in PE, involving cell proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, and anti-inflammatory. Importantly, administration of HUMSCs-derived EVs improves hypertension and proteinuria in PE mice, alleviates kidney damage, and promotes vascularization in the placenta. Furthermore, metabolomics analysis found that the arginine metabolic pathway is activated after HUMSCs-derived EVs treatment. We also observed increased arginine level, nitric oxide content, and nitric oxide synthase activity, and further experiments proved that activating the arginine metabolic pathway could alleviate endothelial dysfunction. Our results reveal that HUMSCs-derived EVs could ameliorate PE endothelial dysfunction by activating the arginine metabolic pathway and may serve as a therapeutic method for treating PE.
