Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) represent the next generation of biomedical applications, offering advantages over MSCs such as higher stability and lower immunogenicity. As cell-free nanoparticles MSC-EVs have demonstrated both efficacy and safety in the treatment of a range of diseases. This article discussed the applications of MSC-EVs in hair regeneration, immunomodulation, and the treatment of acute kidney injury. MSC-EVs promote hair regeneration by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and migration. They also modulate immune responses and mitigate inflammation through immune-related signaling pathways. Additionally, MSC-EVs contribute to improved renal function by modulating multiple signaling pathways. Despite these promising applications challenges remain in the clinical translation of MSC-EVs. Overcoming these challenges requires extensive research to fully optimize the therapeutic potential of MSC-EVs and advance their translation into clinical practice.
间充质干细胞(MSC)衍生的细胞外囊泡(MSC-EV)代表了下一代生物医学应用,与MSC相比具有更高的稳定性和更低的免疫原性等优势。作为无细胞纳米颗粒,MSC-EV已在一系列疾病的治疗中展现出疗效和安全性。本文讨论了MSC-EV在毛发再生、免疫调节和急性肾损伤治疗中的应用。MSC-EV通过增强毛乳头细胞增殖和迁移来促进毛发再生。它们还通过免疫相关信号通路调节免疫反应并减轻炎症。此外,MSC-EV通过调节多种信号通路有助于改善肾功能。尽管有这些有前景的应用,但MSC-EV的临床转化仍面临挑战。克服这些挑战需要广泛的研究,以充分优化MSC-EV的治疗潜力并推动其转化为临床实践。
