Abstract
Multiple studies have indicated a potential correlation between immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) and Frozen shoulder (FS). To explore the genetic causal relationship between IMIDs and FS using 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary data for FS were obtained from Green's study, while data for 10 IMIDs were sourced from the FinnGen Consortium. The MR analysis was performed using inverse variance weighting, MR Egger, and weighted median methods. IVW, as the primary MR analysis technique, was complemented with other sensitivity analyses to validate the robustness of the results. Additionally, reverse MR analysis was further conducted to investigate the presence of reverse causal relationships. In the forward MR analysis, genetically determined 4 IMIDs are causally associated with FS: rheumatoid arthritis (odds ratio [OR] (95% confidence interval [95% CI]) = 1.05 [1.02-1.09], P < .01); type 1 diabetes (OR [95% CI] = 1.06 [1.03-1.09], P < .01); hypothyroidism (OR [95% CI] = 1.07 [1.01-1.14], P = .02); and Celiac disease (OR [95% CI] = 1.02 [1.01-1.04], P = .01). However, no causal relationship was found between 6 IMIDs (autoimmune hyperthyroidism, Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, sicca syndrome and systemic lupus erythematosus) and FS. Sensitivity analyses did not detect any heterogeneity or horizontal pleiotropy. In the reverse MR analysis, no causal relationship was observed between FS and IMIDs. In conclusion, this MR study suggests a potential causal relationship between rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes, hypothyroidism, and Celiac disease in the onset and development of FS. Nevertheless, more basic and clinical research will be needed in the future to support our findings.

Abstract
Obesity and its related metabolic complications represent a significant global health challenge. Central to this is the dysregulation of glucolipid metabolism, with a predominant focus on glucose metabolic dysfunction in the current research, whereas adipose metabolism impairment garners less attention. Exosomes (EXs), small extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by various cells, have emerged as important mediators of intercellular communication and have the potential to be biomarkers, targets, and therapeutic tools for diverse diseases. In particular, EXs have been found to play a role in adipose metabolism by transporting cargoes such as noncoding RNAs (ncRNA), proteins, and other factors. This review article summarizes the current understanding of the role of EXs in mediating adipose metabolism disorders in obesity. It highlights their roles in adipogenesis (encompassing adipogenic differentiation and lipid synthesis), lipid catabolism, lipid transport, and white adipose browning. The insights provided by this review offer new avenues for developing exosome-based therapies to treat obesity and its associated comorbidities.

Abstract
Obesity is a global health crisis that contributes to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Obesity's comorbid association with a variety of diseases, from metabolic syndrome to neurodegenerative disease, underscores the critical need to better understand the pathobiology of obesity. Adipose tissue, once seen as an inert storage depot, is now recognized as an active endocrine organ, regulating metabolic and systemic homeostasis. Recent studies spotlight the theranostic utility of extracellular vesicles (EVs) as novel biomarkers and drivers of disease, including obesity-related complications. Adipose-derived EVs (ADEVs) have garnered increased interest for their roles in diverse diseases, however robust isolation and characterization protocols for human, cell-specific EV subsets are limited. Herein, we directly address this technical challenge by establishing a multiparametric analysis framework that leverages bulk and single EV characterization, mRNA phenotyping and proteomics of human ADEVs directly from paired visceral adipose tissue, cultured mature adipocyte conditioned media, and plasma from obese subjects undergoing bariatric surgery. Importantly, rigorous EV phenotyping at the tissue and cell-specific level identified top 'adipose liquid biopsy' candidates that were validated in circulating plasma EVs from the same patient. In summary, our study paves the way toward a tissue and cell-specific, multiparametric framework for studying tissue and circulating adipose EVs in obesity-driven disease.

Abstract
Obesity is associated with a wide range of complications, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, hypertension and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Obesity also increases the incidence and progression of cancers, autoimmunity and infections, as well as lowering vaccine responsiveness. A unifying concept across these differing diseases is dysregulated immunity, particularly inflammation, in response to metabolic overload. Herein, we review emerging mechanisms by which obesity drives inflammation and autoimmunity, as well as impairing tumour immunosurveillance and the response to infections. Among these mechanisms are obesity-associated changes in the hormones that regulate immune cell metabolism and function and drive inflammation. The cargo of extracellular vesicles derived from adipose tissue, which controls cytokine secretion from immune cells, is also dysregulated in obesity, in addition to impairments in fatty acid metabolism related to inflammation. Furthermore, an imbalance exists in obesity in the biosynthesis and levels of polyunsaturated fatty acid-derived oxylipins, which control a range of outcomes related to inflammation, such as immune cell chemotaxis and cytokine production. Finally, there is a need to investigate how obesity influences immunity using innovative model systems that account for the heterogeneous nature of obesity in the human population.

Abstract
Exosomes are the smallest subset of extracellular signaling vesicles secreted by most cells with the ability to communicate with other tissues and cell types over long distances. Their use in regenerative medicine has gained tremendous momentum recently due to their ability to be utilized as therapeutic options for a wide array of diseases/conditions. Over 5000 publications are currently being published yearly on this topic, and this number is only expected to dramatically increase as novel therapeutic strategies continue to be developed. Today exosomes have been applied in numerous contexts including neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer's disease, central nervous system, depression, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, post-traumatic stress disorders, traumatic brain injury, peripheral nerve injury), damaged organs (heart, kidney, liver, stroke, myocardial infarctions, myocardial infarctions, ovaries), degenerative processes (atherosclerosis, diabetes, hematology disorders, musculoskeletal degeneration, osteoradionecrosis, respiratory disease), infectious diseases (COVID-19, hepatitis), regenerative procedures (antiaging, bone regeneration, cartilage/joint regeneration, osteoarthritis, cutaneous wounds, dental regeneration, dermatology/skin regeneration, erectile dysfunction, hair regrowth, intervertebral disc repair, spinal cord injury, vascular regeneration), and cancer therapy (breast, colorectal, gastric cancer and osteosarcomas), immune function (allergy, autoimmune disorders, immune regulation, inflammatory diseases, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis). This scoping review is a first of its kind aimed at summarizing the extensive regenerative potential of exosomes over a broad range of diseases and disorders.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a highly prevalent chronic inflammatory skin condition involving abnormal proliferation and differentiation of keratinocytes, together with substantial infiltration of immune cells. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), which are released spontaneously into the extracellular space by virtually all cell types, play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication by delivering bioactive cargos such as mRNA nucleic acids and proteins to recipient cells. Numerous studies have highlighted the significant contributions of EVs to both the pathogenesis and treatment of psoriasis. This review provides a concise overview of skin-derived EVs and their involvement in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a common pathological condition in otorhinolaryngology. Its prevalence has been increasing worldwide and is becoming a major burden to the world population. Dendritic cells (DCs) are typically activated and matured after capturing, phagocytosing, and processing allergens during the immunopathogenesis of AR. In addition, the process of DC activation and maturation is accompanied by the production of exosomes, which are cell‑derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) that can carry proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and other cargoes involved in intercellular communication and material transfer. In particular, DC‑derived exosomes (Dex) can participate in allergic immune responses, where the biological substances carried by them can have potentially important implications for both the pathogenesis and treatment of AR. Dex can also be exploited to carry anti‑allergy agents to effectively treat AR. This provides a novel method to explore the pathogenesis of and treatment strategies for AR further. Therefore, the present review focuses on the origin, composition, function, and biological characteristics of DCs, exosomes, and Dex, in addition to the possible relationship between Dex and AR.

Abstract
The body partially maintains metabolic homeostasis through interorgan communication between metabolic organs under physiological conditions. This crosstalk is known to be mediated by hormones or metabolites, and has recently been expanding to include extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs participate in interorgan communication under physiological and pathological conditions by encapsulating various bioactive cargoes, including proteins, metabolites, and nucleic acids. In this review we summarize the latest findings about the metabolic regulation of EV biogenesis, secretion, and components, and highlight the biological role of EV cargoes in interorgan communication in cancer, obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. We also discuss the potential application of EVs as diagnostic markers, and corresponding therapeutic strategies by EV engineering for both early detection and treatment of metabolic disorders.

Effects of plasma-derived exosomes from the normal and thin Bactrian camels on hepatocellular carcinoma and their differences at transcriptome and proteomics levels. Front Oncol 2023; 13:994340.

Abstract
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant primary tumor. Bactrian camels have high economic and social values, but their potential medical value has not been studied. This study aimed to investigate the effects of Bactrian camel plasma-derived exosomes on HCC. Methods Plasma was obtained from thin and normal Bactrian camels, and used to isolate exosomes by ultracentrifugation. The exosomes were then characterized by transmission electron microscopy and Nano particle tracking analyzer. In vivo imaging of nude mice and hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining of liver tissues were used to explore the effects of the exosomes on tumor growth. Finally, the differences of the two exosomes were further analyzed using small RNA sequencing and proteomics. Results In vivo imaging and HE staining showed that no significant differences were found in fluorescence value and liver tissue morphology between the control mice and the mice treated with the exosomes from thin Bactrian camels; while the fluorescence value and the live histology changes were alleviated in the mice with the exosomes from normal Bactrian camels. After sequencing and proteomic analysis, 40 differentially expressed miRNAs (DE-miRNAs, 15 down-regulated and 25 up-regulated) and 172 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs, 77 up-regulated and 95 down-regulated) were identified in the plasma-derived exosomes from normal Bactrian camels. These identified DE-miRNAs and DEPs were significantly enriched in many signaling pathways. Conclusions Normal Bactrian camel plasma-derived exosomes may inhibit the growth of HCC cells through regulating pathways of Ras, Ras-Association Proximate 1 (Rap1), phosphoinositide 3-kinase-protein kinase B (PI3K-Akt), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and canonical Wnt signaling pathways.

Abstract
Epiphyseal plate injury, a common problem in pediatric orthopedics, may result in poor bone repair or growth defects. Epiphyseal plate, also known as growth plate is a layer of hyaline cartilage tissue between the epiphysis and metaphyseal and has the ability to grow longitudinally. Under normal physiological conditions, the epiphyseal plate has a certain axial resistance to stress, but it is fragile in growth phase and can be damaged by excessive stress, leading to detachment or avulsion of the epiphysis, resulting in life-long devastating consequences for patients. There is an obvious inflammatory response in the phase of growth plate injury, the limited physiological inflammatory response locally favors tissue repair and the organism, but uncontrolled chronic inflammation always leads to tissue destruction and disease progression. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), as representative inflammatory factors, not only affect the inflammatory phase response to bone and soft tissue injury, but have a potentially important role in the later repair phase, though the exact mechanism is not fully understood. At present, epiphyseal plate injuries are mainly treated by corrective and reconstructive surgery, which is highly invasive with limited effectiveness, thus new therapeutic approaches are urgently needed, so a deeper understanding and exploration of the pathological mechanisms of epiphyseal plate injuries at the cellular molecular level is an entry point. In this review, we fully introduced the key role of IL-1 in the progression of epiphyseal plate injury and repair, deeply explored the mechanism of IL-1 on the molecular transcript level and endocrine metabolism of chondrocytes from multiple aspects, and summarized other possible mechanisms to provide theoretical basis for the clinical treatment and in-depth study of epiphyseal plate injury in children.

Abstract
Excess body weight has been considered beneficial to bone health because of its anabolic effect on bone formation; however, this results in a poor quality bone structure. In this context, we evaluated the involvement of circulating extracellular vesicles in the impairment of the bone phenotype associated with obesity. Circulating extracellular vesicles were collected from the plasma of participants with normal weight, as well as overweight and obese participants, quantified by flow cytometry analysis and used to treat mesenchymal stromal cells and osteoblasts to assess their effect on cell differentiation and activity. Children with obesity had the highest amount of circulating extracellular vesicles compared to controls. The treatment of mesenchymal stromal cells with extracellular vesicles from obese participants led to an adipogenic differentiation in comparison to vesicles from controls. Mature osteoblasts treated with extracellular vesicles from obese participants showed a reduction in differentiation markers in comparison to controls. Children with obesity who regularly performed physical exercise had a lower circulating extracellular vesicle amount in comparison to those with a sedentary lifestyle. This pilot study demonstrates how the high amount of circulating extracellular vesicles in children with obesity affects the bone phenotype and that physical activity can partially rescue this phenotype.

Abstract
Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) encompass several entities such as "classic" autoimmune disorders or immune-mediated diseases with autoinflammatory characteristics. Adult stem cells including mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are by far the most commonly used type in clinical practice. However, due to the possible side effects of MSC-based treatments, there is an increase in interest in the MSC-secretome (containing large extracellular vesicles, microvesicles, and exosomes) as an alternative therapeutic option in IMIDs. A wide spectrum of MSC-secretome-related biological activities has been proven thus far including anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and immunomodulatory properties. In comparison with MSCs, the secretome is less immunogenic but exerts similar biological actions, so it can be considered as an ideal cell-free therapeutic alternative. Additionally, since the composition of the MSC-secretome can be engineered, for a future perspective, it could also be viewed as part of a potential delivery system within nanomedicine, allowing us to specifically target dysfunctional cells or tissues. Although many encouraging results from pre-clinical studies have recently been obtained that strongly support the application of the MSC-secretome in IMIDs, human studies with MSC-secretome administration are still in their infancy. This article reviews the immunomodulatory effects of the MSC-secretome in IMIDs and provides insight into the interpretation of its beneficial biological actions.

Abstract
Toll-like receptors were discovered as proteins playing a crucial role in the dorsoventral patterning during embryonic development in the Drosophila melanogaster (D. melanogaster) almost 40 years ago. Subsequently, further research also showed a role of the Toll protein or Toll receptor in the recognition of Gram-positive bacterial and fungal pathogens infecting D. melanogaster. In 1997, the human homolog was reported and the receptor was named the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) that recognizes lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of the Gram-negative bacteria as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP). Identification of TLR4 in humans filled the long existing gap in the field of infection and immunity, addressing the mystery surrounding the recognition of foreign pathogens/microbes by the immune system. It is now known that mammals (mice and humans) express 13 different TLRs that are expressed on the outer cell membrane or intracellularly, and which recognize different PAMPs or microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) and death/damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) to initiate the protective immune response. However, their dysregulation generates profound and prolonged pro-inflammatory immune responses responsible for different inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases. This chapter provides an overview of TLRs in the control of the immune response, their association with different diseases, including TLR single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), interactions with microRNAs (miRs), use in drug development and vaccine design, and expansion in neurosciences to include pain, addiction, metabolism, reproduction, and wound healing.
