Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 175:116672. [PMID: 38677249 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.116672] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Revised: 04/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most common microvascular complications in diabetic patients, with its incidence continuously increasing in recent years. DN causes renal tissue damage and functional decline, expedites the aging process of the kidneys, and may ultimately progress leading to end-stage renal disease, severely impacting the patient's quality of life and prognosis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are highly valued for their multipotent differentiation, paracrine functions, immunomodulatory effects, and capacity for tissue repair. Particularly, exosomes (Exo) derived from MSCs (MSCs-Exo) are rich in bioactive molecules and facilitate intercellular communication, participating in various physiological and pathological processes. MSCs and MSCs-Exo, in particular, have been demonstrated to have therapeutic effects in DN treatment research by encouraging tissue repair, fibrosis inhibition, and inflammation reduction. Research has shown that MSCs and MSCs-Exo have therapeutic effects in DN treatment by promoting tissue repair, inhibiting fibrosis, and reducing inflammation. Recent studies underscore the potential of MSCs and MSCs-Exo, highlighting their broad applicability in DN treatment. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the scientific developments in treating DN using MSCs and MSCs-Exo from diverse sources, while also exploring their future therapeutic possibilities in detail.

Bioinspired engineering ADSC nanovesicles thermosensitive hydrogel enhance autophagy of dermal papilla cells for androgenetic alopecia treatment. Bioact Mater 2024; 36:112-125. [PMID: 38440324 PMCID: PMC10911949 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.02.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 01/27/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Androgenic alopecia (AGA) is a highly prevalent form of non-scarring alopecia but lacks effective treatments. Stem cell exosomes have similar repair effects to stem cells, suffer from the drawbacks of high cost and low yield yet. Cell-derived nanovesicles acquired through mechanical extrusion exhibit favorable biomimetic properties similar to exosomes, enabling them to efficiently encapsulate substantial quantities of therapeutic proteins. In this study, we observed that JAM-A, an adhesion protein, resulted in a significantly increased the adhesion and resilience of dermal papilla cells to form snap structures against damage caused by dihydrotestosterone and macrophages, thereby facilitating the process of hair regrowth in cases of AGA. Consequently, adipose-derived stem cells were modified to overexpress JAM-A to produce engineered JAM-A overexpressing nanovesicles (JAM-AOE@NV). The incorporation of JAM-AOE@NV into a thermosensitive hydrogel matrix (JAM-AOE@NV Gel) to effectively addresses the limitations associated with the short half-life of JAM-AOE@NV, and resulted in the achievement of a sustained-release profile for JAM-AOE@NV. The physicochemical characteristics of the JAM-AOE@NV Gel were analyzed and assessed for its efficacy in promoting hair regrowth in vivo and vitro. The JAM-AOE@NV Gel, thus, presents a novel therapeutic approach and theoretical framework for promoting the treatment of low cell adhesion diseases similar to AGA.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent disorder of synovial joint affecting multiple joints. In the past decade, we have witnessed conceptual switch of OA pathogenesis from a 'wear and tear' disease to a disease affecting entire joint. Extensive studies have been conducted to understand the underlying mechanisms of OA using genetic mouse models and ex vivo joint tissues derived from individuals with OA. These studies revealed that multiple signalling pathways are involved in OA development, including the canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling and its interaction with other signalling pathways, such as transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), bone morphogenic protein (BMP), Indian Hedgehog (Ihh), nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and Notch. The identification of signalling interaction and underlying mechanisms are currently underway and the specific molecule(s) and key signalling pathway(s) playing a decisive role in OA development need to be evaluated. This review will focus on recent progresses in understanding of the critical role of Wnt/β-catenin signalling in OA pathogenesis and interaction of β-catenin with other pathways, such as TGF-β, BMP, Notch, Ihh, NF-κB, and FGF. Understanding of these novel insights into the interaction of β-catenin with other pathways and its integration into a complex gene regulatory network during OA development will help us identify the key signalling pathway of OA pathogenesis leading to the discovery of novel therapeutic strategies for OA intervention.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint condition that contributes to years lived with disability. Current therapeutic approaches are limited as there are no disease-modifying interventions able to delay or inhibit the progression of disease. In recent years there has been an increasing interest in the immunomodulatory and regenerative properties of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) to develop new OA therapies. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate many of the biological effects of these cells and may represent an alternative avoiding the limitations of cell-based therapy. There is also a growing interest in EV modifications to enhance their efficacy and applications. Recent preclinical studies have provided strong evidence supporting the potential of MSC EVs for the development of OA treatments. Thus, MSC EVs may regulate chondrocyte functions to avoid cartilage destruction, inhibit abnormal subchondral bone metabolism and synovial tissue alterations, and control pain behavior. EV actions may be mediated by the transfer of their cargo to target cells, with an important role for proteins and non-coding RNAs modulating signaling pathways relevant for OA progression. Nevertheless, additional investigations are needed concerning EV optimization, and standardization of preparation procedures. More research is also required for a better knowledge of possible effects on different OA phenotypes, pharmacokinetics, mechanism of action, long-term effects and safety profile. Furthermore, MSC EVs have a high potential as vehicles for drug delivery or as adjuvant therapy to potentiate or complement the effects of other approaches.

Abstract
Degenerative orthopaedic diseases pose a notable worldwide public health issue attributable to the global aging population. Conventional medical approaches, encompassing physical therapy, pharmaceutical interventions, and surgical methods, face obstacles in halting or reversing the degenerative process. In recent times, exosome-based therapy has gained widespread acceptance and popularity as an effective treatment for degenerative orthopaedic diseases. This therapeutic approach holds the potential for "cell-free" tissue regeneration. Exosomes, membranous vesicles resulting from the fusion of intracellular multivesicles with the cell membrane, are released into the extracellular matrix. Addressing challenges such as the rapid elimination of natural exosomes in vivo and the limitation of drug concentration can be effectively achieved through various strategies, including engineering modification, gene overexpression modification, and biomaterial binding. This review provides a concise overview of the source, classification, and preparation methods of exosomes, followed by an in-depth analysis of their functions and potential applications. Furthermore, the review explores various strategies for utilizing exosomes in the treatment of degenerative orthopaedic diseases, encompassing engineering modification, gene overexpression, and biomaterial binding. The primary objective is to provide a fresh viewpoint on the utilization of exosomes in addressing bone degenerative conditions and to support the practical application of exosomes in the theranosis of degenerative orthopaedic diseases.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative disease of the joint with irreversible cartilage damage as the main pathological feature. With the development of regenerative medicine, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been found to have strong therapeutic potential. However, intraarticular MSCs injection therapy is limited by economic costs and ethics. Exosomes derived from MSC (MSC-Exos), as the important intercellular communication mode of MSCs, contain nucleic acid, proteins, lipids, microRNAs, and other biologically active substances. With excellent editability and specificity, MSC-Exos function as a targeted delivery system for OA treatment, modulating immunity, inhibiting apoptosis, and promoting regeneration. This article reviews the mechanism of action of MSC-Exos in the treatment of osteoarthritis, the current research status of the preparation of MSC-Exos and its application of drug delivery in OA therapy.

Mater Today Bio 2023; 23:100813. [PMID: 37822452 PMCID: PMC10562164 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2023.100813] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 08/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Exosomes (Exos) secreted by adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have shown potential in alleviating osteoarthritis (OA). Previous studies indicated that infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) derived stem cells (IPFSCs) may be more suitable for the treatment of OA than subcutaneous adipose tissue (ScAT) derived stem cells (ScASCs). However, it remains unclear which type of Exos offers superior therapeutic benefit for OA. This study first compared the differences between Exos derived from IPFP stem cells (ExosIPFP) and ScAT stem cells (ExosScAT) in OA treatment. Results suggested that ExosIPFP significantly inhibit the degradation of cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) than ExosScAT, following this, the differences in microRNA (miRNA) expression between the two types of Exos using small RNA sequencing were performed. Subsequently, miR-99 b-3p was chosen and over-expressed in ExosScAT (ExosScAT-99b-3p), both in vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrated its efficacy in inhibiting the expression of ADAMTS4, promoting the repair of the ECM in OA. Finally, microfluidic technology was performed to fabricate a hyaluronan-based hydrogel microparticles (HMPs) for encapsulating Exos (HMPs@exos), the injectability, sustained release of Exos and long-term therapeutic effect on OA were validated. In summary, these results suggest miR-99 b-3p regulates the degradation of cartilage ECM by targeting ADAMTS4, the upregulation of miR-99 b-3p in ExosScAT would enable them to exhibit comparable or even superior effectiveness to ExosIPFP for OA treatment, making it a promising approach for OA treatment. Considering the abundant resources of ScAT and the limited availability of IPFP, ScAT harvested through liposuction could be genetically engineered to yield Exos for OA treatment. Furthermore, the encapsulation of Exos in HMPs provides an injectable sustained local drug release system, which could potentially enhance the efficacy of Exos and hold potential as future therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease involving cartilage. Exosomes derived from Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy improves articular cartilage repair, but subcutaneous fat (SC) stromal cells derived exosomes (MSCsSC-Exos), especially engineering MSCsSC-Exos for drug delivery have been rarely reported in OA therapy. This objective of this study was to clarify the underlying mechanism of MSCsSC-Exos on cartilage repair and therapy of engineering MSCsSC-Exos for drug delivery in OA. MSCsSC-Exos could ameliorate the pathological severity degree of cartilage via miR-199a-3p, a novel molecular highly enriched in MSCsSC-Exos, which could mediate the mTOR-autophagy pathway in OA rat model. Intra-articular injection of antagomiR-199a-3p dramatically attenuated the protective effect of MSCsSC-Exos-mediated on articular cartilage in vivo. Furthermore, to achieve the superior therapeutic effects of MSCsSC-Exos on injured cartilage, engineering exosomes derived from MSCsSC as the chondrocyte-targeting miR-199a-3p delivery vehicles were investigated in vitro and in vivo. The chondrocyte-binding peptide (CAP) binding MSCsSC-Exos could particularly deliver miR-199a-3p into the chondrocytes in vitro and into deep articular tissues in vivo, then exert the excellent protective effect on injured cartilage in DMM-induced OA mice. As it is feasible to obtain human subcutaneous fat from healthy donors by liposuction operation in clinic, meanwhile engineering MSCsSC-Exos to realize targeted delivery of miR-199a-3p into chondrocytes exerted excellent therapeutic effects in OA animal model in vivo. Through combining MSCsSC-Exos therapy and miRNA therapy via an engineering approach, we develop an efficient MSCsSC-Exos-based strategy for OA therapy and promote the application of targeted-MSCsSC-Exos for drug delivery in the future.
