Summary: Previous studies have indicated the neuroprotective effect of olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem cells (OM-MSCs) on brain injury. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) models were established in rats by injecting autologous blood. SENP1 expression was enhanced in neurons but decreased in astrocytes compared to that in OM-MSCs. Overexpression of SENP1 promoted the proliferation and neuronal differentiation, while inhibiting the astrocytic differentiation of OM-MSCs. Conversely, its knockdown had the opposite effect. Moreover, OM-MSCs reduced neurological dysfunction in rats after ICH, and the neuroprotective effect of OM-MSCs could be further enhanced by SENP1 overexpression. In addition, SENP1 promoted mitophagy, which might be related to SENP1-mediated OPTN deSUMOylation. Furthermore, SENP1 promoted neuronal differentiation of OM-MSCs through mitophagy mediated by OPTN. Similar to SENP1, OPTN transfection further enhanced the remission effect of OM-MSC on ICH rats. SENP1 promoted neuronal differentiation of OM-MSCs through OPTN-mediated mitophagy to improve neurological deficits in ICH rats.
