Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) show significant promise in treating immune diseases due to their ability to differentiate into various cell types and their immunomodulatory properties. However, the mechanisms by which MSCs regulate CD4T cells, essential for immune responses, are not yet fully understood. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of how MSCs and their secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs) modulate CD4T cells in immune diseases. We begin by discussing the immunomodulatory properties of MSCs and the factors contributing to their effectiveness. Following this, we explore how MSCs interact with CD4T cells through various pathways, including the secretion of soluble factors, direct cell-cell contact, and EV-mediated communication. A key focus is on the therapeutic potential of MSC-derived EVs, which are rich in bioactive molecules such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. These molecules can regulate the phenotype and function of CD4T cells. The challenges and future perspectives in utilizing MSCs and EVs for immune-disease therapy are also addressed. Overall, this research aims to enhance our understanding of the mechanisms behind MSC-mediated regulation of CD4T cells and provide insights into the potential use of MSCs and EVs as therapeutic tools in immune diseases. In summary, understanding how MSCs and their EVs control CD4T cells can offer valuable perspectives for developing innovative immunotherapeutic approaches. Leveraging the immunomodulatory capacity of MSCs and EVs holds promise for managing immune-related disorders.
间充质干细胞(MSCs)因其能够分化为多种细胞类型以及具有免疫调节特性,在治疗免疫疾病方面显示出巨大的潜力。然而,MSCs调节对免疫反应至关重要的CD4T细胞的机制尚未完全明确。本研究旨在全面概述MSCs及其分泌的细胞外囊泡(EVs)在免疫疾病中如何调节CD4T细胞。我们首先讨论MSCs的免疫调节特性以及影响其有效性的因素。在此之后,我们探究MSCs如何通过多种途径与CD4T细胞相互作用,包括可溶性因子的分泌、直接的细胞间接触以及EV介导的通讯。一个关键重点是源自MSCs的EVs的治疗潜力,这些EVs富含蛋白质、脂质和核酸等生物活性分子。这些分子可以调节CD4T细胞的表型和功能。同时也探讨了利用MSCs和EVs进行免疫疾病治疗所面临的挑战和未来前景。总体而言,本研究旨在加深我们对MSCs介导的CD4T细胞调节机制的理解,并为将MSCs和EVs作为免疫疾病治疗工具的潜在应用提供见解。总之,了解MSCs及其EVs如何控制CD4T细胞可为开发创新的免疫治疗方法提供有价值的观点。利用MSCs和EVs的免疫调节能力有望治疗免疫相关疾病。
