Abstract
Microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer (MSS-CRC) exhibits resistance to programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) therapy. Improving the infiltration and tumor recognition of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) is a promising strategy, but it encounters huge challenges from drug delivery and mechanisms aspects. Here, a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) coated with apoptotic body membranes derived from MSS-CRC cells is engineered for the co-delivery of ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) and atractylenolide-I (Att) to MSS-CRC, named as Ab@Rg1/Att-ZIF. This system is selectively engulfed by Ly-6C+ monocytes during blood circulation and utilizes a "hitchhiking" mechanism to migrate toward the core of MSS-CRC. Ab@Rg1/Att-ZIF undergoes rapid disassembly in the tumor, released Rg1 promotes the processing and transportation of tumor antigens in dendritic cells (DCs), enhancing their maturation. Meanwhile, Att enhances the activity of the 26S proteasome complex in tumor cells, leading to increased expression of major histocompatibility complex class-I (MHC-I). These coordinated actions enhance the infiltration and recognition of CTLs in the center of MSS-CRC, significantly improving the tumor inhibition of PD-1 treatment from ≈5% to ≈69%. This innovative design, involving inflammation-guided precise drug co-delivery and a rational combination, achieves synergistic engineering of the tumor microenvironment, providing a novel strategy for successful PD-1 treatment of MSS-CRC.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative whole-joint disease in which the synovium and joint cartilage become inflamed and damaged. The essential role of inflammation in the development of OA has been recognized recently. Accordingly, simultaneous regulation of local inflammation and tissue degeneration is proposed as a promising therapeutic strategy. Herein, multifunctional biomimetic apoptotic nanovesicles (Apo-NVs) are constructed with plasma membrane derived from apoptotic T cells. The anti-inflammatory microRNA-124 is further encapsulated into Apo-NVs in the hope of achieving an enhanced immunomodulatory effect. It is found that apoptotic nanovesicles, including Apo-NVs and Apo-NVs-miR-124, both efficiently promote the M2 repolarization of M1 macrophages and inhibit the degenerative phenotype of chondrocytes. Further in vivo studies show that Apo-NVs and Apo-NVs-miR-124 alleviate synovial inflammation and protect cartilage tissue from degeneration in OA mice. The study highlights the potential of Apo-NVs in treating OA and other inflammation-related diseases.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have great potential in oncology drug delivery because of their unique biological origin. Apoptotic bodies (ABs), as a member of the EV family, offer distinct advantages in terms of size, availability and membrane properties, but have been neglected for a long time. Here, using ABs and Ti2N nanosheets, we propose a novel drug delivery system (Ti2N-DOX@ABs), which exhibit a homologous targeting ability for dual-strategy tumor therapy with intrinsic biological property. The experimental results demonstrate that such a drug delivery system possesses a drug loading capacity of 496.5% and a near-infrared photothermal conversion efficiency of 38.4%. In addition, the investigation of drug internalization process proved that Ti2N-DOX@ABs featured a supreme biocompatibility. Finally, the dual-strategy response based on photothermal and chemotherapeutic effects was studied under near-infrared laser radiation. This work explores the opportunity of apoptosome membranes in nanomedicine systems, which provides a technical reference for cancer-oriented precision medicine research.

Abstract
Radiation enteritis is the most common complication of pelvic radiotherapy, but there is no effective prevention or treatment drug. Apoptotic T cells and their products play an important role in regulating inflammation and maintaining physiological immune homeostasis. Here it is shown that systemically infused T cell-derived apoptotic extracellular vesicles (ApoEVs) can target mice irradiated intestines and alleviate radiation enteritis. Mechanistically, radiation elevates the synthesis of intestinal 2'3' cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) and activates cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) proinflammatory pathway. After systemic infusion of ApoEVs, the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) enriches on the surface of ApoEVs hydrolyze extracellular cGAMP, resulting in inhibition of the cGAS-STING pathway activated by irradiation. Furthermore, after ApoEVs are phagocytosed by phagocytes, ENPP1 on ApoEVs hydrolyzed intracellular cGAMP, which serves as an intracellular cGAMP hydrolyzation mode, thereby alleviating radiation enteritis. The findings shed light on the intracellular and extracellular hydrolysis capacity of ApoEVs and their role in inflammation regulation.

Abstract
Apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) play a vital role in various pathological conditions; however, we have yet to fully understand their precise biological effects in rescuing impaired mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and regulating tissue homeostasis. Here, we proved that systemic infusion of bone marrow MSCs derived from wild-type (WT) mice effectively improved the osteopenia phenotype and hyperimmune state in ovariectomized (OVX) mice. Importantly, the WT MSCs rescued the impairment of OVX MSCs both in vivo and in vitro, whereas OVX MSCs did not show the same efficacy. Interestingly, treatment with apoVs derived from WT MSCs (WT apoVs) restored the impaired biological function of OVX MSCs and their ability to improve osteoporosis. This effect was not observed with OVX MSCs-derived apoVs (OVX apoVs) treatment. Mechanistically, the reduced miR-145a-5p expression hindered the osteogenic differentiation and immunomodulatory capacity of OVX MSCs by affecting the TGF-β/Smad 2/3-Wnt/β-catenin signaling axis, resulting in the development of osteoporosis. WT apoVs directly transferred miR-145a-5p to OVX MSCs, which were then reused to restore their impaired biological functions. Conversely, treatment with OVX apoVs did not produce significant effects due to their limited expression of miR-145a-5p. Overall, our findings unveil the remarkable potential of apoVs in rescuing the biological function and therapeutic capability of MSCs derived from individuals with diseases. This discovery offers a new avenue for exploring apoVs-based MSC engineering and expands the application scope of stem cell therapy, contributing to the maintenance of bone homeostasis through a previously unrecognized mechanism.

Abstract
Flare and multiple recurrences pose significant challenges in gouty arthritis. Traditional treatments provide temporary relief from inflammation but fail to promptly alleviate patient pain or effectively prevent subsequent recurrences. It should also be noted that both anti-inflammation and metabolism of uric acid are necessary for gouty arthritis, calling for therapeutic systems to achieve these two goals simultaneously. In this study, we propose a biomimetic integrated nanozyme, HMPB-Pt@MM, comprising platinum nanozyme and hollow Prussian blue. It demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties by eliminating reactive oxygen species and reducing infiltration of inflammatory macrophages. Additionally, it rapidly targets inflamed ankles through the camouflage of macrophage membranes. Furthermore, HMPB-Pt@MM exhibits urate oxidase-like capabilities, continuously metabolizing locally elevated uric acid concentrations, ultimately inhibiting multiple recurrences of gouty arthritis. In summary, HMPB-Pt@MM integrates ROS clearance with uric acid metabolism, offering a promising platform for the treatment of gouty arthritis.

Abstract
Oxygen therapy cannot rescue local lung hypoxia in patients with severe respiratory failure. Here, an inhalable platform is reported for overcoming the aberrant hypoxia-induced immune changes and alveolar damage using camouflaged poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) microparticles with macrophage apoptotic body membrane (cMAB). cMABs are preloaded with mitochondria-targeting superoxide dismutase/catalase nanocomplexes (NCs) and modified with pathology-responsive macrophage growth factor colony-stimulating factor (CSF) chains, which form a core-shell platform called C-cMAB/NC with efficient deposition in deeper alveoli and high affinity to alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) after CSF chains are cleaved by matrix metalloproteinase 9. Therefore, NCs can be effectively transported into mitochondria to inhibit inflammasome-mediated AECs damage in mouse models of hypoxic acute lung injury. Additionally, the at-site CSF release is sufficient to rescue circulating monocytes and macrophages and alter their phenotypes, maximizing synergetic effects of NCs on creating a pro-regenerative microenvironment that enables resolution of lung injury and inflammation. This inhalable platform may have applications to numerous inflammatory lung diseases.

Abstract
Despite improvements in clinical outcomes following acute myocardial infarction, mortality remains high, especially in patients with severely reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF <30%), emphasizing the need for effective cardioprotective strategies adjunctive to recanalization. Traditional cell therapy has shown equivocal success, shifting the focus to innovative cardioactive biologicals and cell mimetic therapies, particularly extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs, as carriers of non-coding RNAs and other essential biomolecules, influence neighbouring and remote cell function in a paracrine manner. Compared to cell therapy, EVs possess several clinically advantageous traits, including stability, ease of storage (enabling off-the-shelf clinical readiness), and decreased immunogenicity. Allogeneic EVs from mesenchymal and/or cardiac stromal progenitor cells demonstrate safety and potential efficacy in preclinical settings. This review delves into the translational potential of EV-based therapeutic approaches, specifically highlighting findings from large-animal studies, and offers a synopsis of ongoing early-stage clinical trials in this domain.

Abstract
The dynamic balance between hypoxia and oxidative stress constitutes the oxygen-related microenvironment in injured tissues. Due to variability, oxygen homeostasis is usually not a therapeutic target for injured tissues. It is found that when administered intravenously, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and in vitro induced apoptotic vesicles (ApoVs) exhibit similar apoptotic markers in the wound microenvironment where hypoxia and oxidative stress co-existed, but MSCs exhibited better effects in promoting angiogenesis and wound healing. The derivation pathway of ApoVs by inducing hypoxia or oxidative stress in MSCs to simulate oxygen homeostasis in injured tissues is improved. Two types of oxygen-related environmental stressed ApoVs are identified that directly target endothelial cells (ECs) for the accurate regulation of vascularization. Compared to normoxic and hypoxic ones, oxidatively stressed ApoVs (Oxi-ApoVs) showed the strongest tube formation capacity. Different oxygen-stressed ApoVs deliver similar miRNAs, which leads to the broad upregulation of EC phosphokinase activity. Finally, local delivery of Oxi-ApoVs-loaded hydrogel microspheres promotes wound healing. Oxi-ApoV-loaded microspheres achieve controlled ApoV release, targeting ECs by reducing the consumption of inflammatory cells and adapting to the proliferative phase of wound healing. Thus, the biogenerated apoptotic vesicles responding to oxygen-related environmental stress can target ECs to promote vascularization.

[PMID: 38627392 PMCID: PMC11021547 DOI: 10.1038/s41368-024-00293-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 03/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs; MSC-apoVs) are vital for bone regeneration, and possess superior capabilities compared to MSCs and other extracellular vesicles derived from MSCs (such as exosomes). The osteoinductive effect of MSC-apoVs is attributed to their diverse contents, especially enriched proteins or microRNAs (miRNAs). To optimize their osteoinduction activity, it is necessary to determine the unique cargo profiles of MSC-apoVs. We previously established the protein landscape and identified proteins specific to MSC-apoVs. However, the features and functions of miRNAs enriched in MSC-apoVs are unclear. In this study, we compared MSCs, MSC-apoVs, and MSC-exosomes from two types of MSC. We generated a map of miRNAs specific to MSC-apoVs and identified seven miRNAs specifically enriched in MSC-apoVs compared to MSCs and MSC-exosomes, which we classified as apoV-specific miRNAs. Among these seven specific miRNAs, hsa-miR-4485-3p was the most abundant and stable. Next, we explored its function in apoV-mediated osteoinduction. Unexpectedly, hsa-miR-4485-3p enriched in MSC-apoVs inhibited osteogenesis and promoted adipogenesis by targeting the AKT pathway. Tailored apoVs with downregulated hsa-miR-4485-3p exhibited a greater effect on bone regeneration than control apoVs. Like releasing the brake, we acquired more powerful osteoinductive apoVs. In summary, we identified the miRNA cargos, including miRNAs specific to MSC-apoVs, and generated tailored apoVs with high osteoinduction activity, which is promising in apoV-based therapies for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Sepsis poses a significant challenge in clinical management. Effective strategies targeting iron restriction, toxin neutralization, and inflammation regulation are crucial in combating sepsis. However, a comprehensive approach simultaneously targeting these multiple processes has not been established. Here, an engineered apoptotic extracellular vesicles (apoEVs) derived from macrophages is developed and their potential as multifunctional agents for sepsis treatment is investigated. The extensive macrophage apoptosis in a Staphylococcus aureus-induced sepsis model is discovered, unexpectedly revealing a protective role for the host. Mechanistically, the protective effects are mediated by apoptotic macrophage-released apoEVs, which bound iron-containing proteins and neutralized α-toxin through interaction with membrane receptors (transferrin receptor and A disintegrin and metalloprotease 10). To further enhance therapeutic efficiency, apoEVs are engineered by incorporating mesoporous silica nanoparticles preloaded with anti-inflammatory agents (microRNA-146a). These engineered apoEVs can capture iron and neutralize α-toxin with their natural membrane while also regulating inflammation by releasing microRNA-146a in phagocytes. Moreover, to exploit the microcosmic movement and rotation capabilities, erythrocytes are utilized to drive the engineered apoEVs. The erythrocytes-driven engineered apoEVs demonstrate a high capacity for toxin and iron capture, ultimately providing protection against sepsis associated with high iron-loaded conditions. The findings establish a multifunctional agent that combines natural and engineered antibacterial strategies.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common degenerative bone disease. The treatment of osteoporosis remains a clinical challenge in light of the increasing aging population. Human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), a type of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), are easy to obtain and have a high proliferation ability, playing an important role in the treatment of osteoporosis. However, MSCs undergo apoptosis within a short time when used in vivo; therefore, apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) have attracted increasing attention. Currently, the osteogenic effect of DPSC-derived apoVs is unknown; therefore, this study aimed to determine the role of DPSC-derived apoVs and their potential mechanisms in bone regeneration. We found that MSCs could take up DPSC-derived apoVs, which then promoted MSC osteogenesis in vitro. Moreover, apoVs could increase the trabecular bone count and bone mineral density in the mouse osteoporosis model and could promote bone formation in rat cranial defects in vivo. Mechanistically, apoVs promoted MSC osteogenesis by activating the extracellular regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 signaling pathway. Consequently, we propose a novel therapy comprising DPSC-derived apoVs, representing a promising approach to treat bone loss and bone defects.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) exacerbates irreversible bone loss in periodontitis, but the mechanism of impaired bone regeneration caused by the abnormal metabolic process of T2DM remains unclear. Exosomes are regarded as the critical mediator in diabetic impairment of regeneration via organ or tissue communication. Here, we find that abnormally elevated exosomes derived from metabolically impaired liver in T2DM are significantly enriched in the periodontal region and induced pyroptosis of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs). Mechanistically, fatty acid synthase (Fasn), the main differentially expressed molecule in diabetic exosomes results in ectopic fatty acid synthesis in PDLCs and activates the cleavage of gasdermin D. Depletion of liver Fasn effectively mitigates pyroptosis of PDLCs and alleviates bone loss. Our findings elucidate the mechanism of exacerbated bone loss in diabetic periodontitis and reveal the exosome-mediated organ communication in the "liver-bone" axis, which shed light on the prevention and treatment of diabetic bone disorders in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose tissue-derived stem cell-derived apoptotic bodies (ADSC-ABs) have shown great potential for immunomodulation and regeneration, particularly in diabetic wound therapy. However, their local application has been limited by unclear regulatory mechanisms, rapid clearance, and short tissue retention times. METHODS We analyzed the key role molecules and regulatory pathways of ADSC-ABs in regulating inflammatory macrophages by mRNA sequencing and microRNA (miRNA) sequencing and then verified them by gene knockdown. To prevent rapid clearance, we employed microfluidics technology to prepare methacrylate-anhydride gelatin (GelMA) microspheres (GMS) for controlled release of ABs. Finally, we evaluated the effectiveness of ADSC-AB-laden GMSs (ABs@GMSs) in a diabetic rat wound model. FINDINGS Our results demonstrated that ADSC-ABs effectively balanced macrophage inflammatory polarization through the janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway, mediated by miR-20a-5p. Furthermore, we showed that AB@GMSs had good biocompatibility, significantly delayed local clearance of ABs, and ameliorated diabetic wound inflammation and promoted vascularization, thus facilitating its healing. CONCLUSIONS Our study reveals the regulatory mechanism of ADSC-ABs in balancing macrophage inflammatory polarization and highlightsthe importance of delaying their local clearance by GMSs. These findings have important implications for the development of novel therapies for diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membrane-enclosed structures that have gained much attention from researchers across varying scientific fields in the past few decades. Cells secrete diverse types of EVs into the extracellular milieu which include exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies. These EVs play a crucial role in facilitating intracellular communication via the transport of proteins, lipids, DNA, rRNA, and miRNAs. It is well known that a number of viruses hijack several cellular pathways involved in EV biogenesis to aid in their replication, assembly, and egress. On the other hand, EVs can also trigger host antiviral immune responses by carrying immunomodulatory molecules and viral antigens on their surface. Owing to this intricate relationship between EVs and viruses, intriguing studies have identified various EV-mediated viral infections and interrogated how EVs can alter overall viral spread and longevity. This review provides a comprehensive overview on the EV-virus relationship, and details various modes of EV-mediated viral spread in the context of clinically relevant enveloped and non-enveloped viruses.

Comparison of the ability of exosomes and ectosomes derived from adipose-derived stromal cells to promote cartilage regeneration in a rat osteochondral defect model. Stem Cell Res Ther 2024; 15:18. [PMID: 38229196 PMCID: PMC10792834 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-024-03632-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) offer promising prospects for stimulating cartilage regeneration. The different formation mechanisms suggest that exosomes and ectosomes possess different biological functions. However, little attention has been paid to the differential effects of EV subsets on cartilage regeneration. METHODS Our study compared the effects of the two EVs isolated from adipose-derived MSCs (ASCs) on chondrocytes and bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs) in vitro. Additionally, we loaded the two EVs into type I collagen hydrogels to optimize their application for the treatment of osteochondral defects in vivo. RESULTS In vitro experiments demonstrate that ASC-derived exosomes (ASC-Exos) significantly promoted the proliferation and migration of both cells more effectively than ASC-derived ectosomes (ASC-Ectos). Furthermore, ASC-Exos facilitated a stronger differentiation of BMSCs into chondrogenic cells than ASC-Ectos, but both inhibited chondrocyte apoptosis to a similar extent. In the osteochondral defect model of rats, ASC-Exos promoted cartilage regeneration in situ better than ASC-Ectos. At 8 weeks, the hydrogel containing exosomes group (Gel + Exo group) had higher macroscopic and histological scores, a higher value of trabecular bone volume fraction (BV/TV), a lower value of trabecular thickness (Tb.Sp), and a better remodeling of extracellular matrix than the hydrogel containing ectosomes group (Gel + Ecto group). At 4 and 8 weeks, the expression of CD206 and Arginase-1 in the Gel + Exo group was significantly higher than that in the Gel + Ecto group. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that administering ASC-Exos may be a more effective EV strategy for cartilage regeneration than the administration of ASC-Ectos.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show great potential for immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory treatments. Clinical trials have been performed for the treatment of Type 1 diabetes, graft-versus-host disease and organ transplantation, which offer a promise of MSCs as an immunomodulatory therapy. Nevertheless, their unstable efficacy and immunogenicity concerns present challenges to clinical translation. It has emerged that the MSC-derived secretome, which includes secreted proteins, exosomes, apoptotic bodies (ABs) and other macromolecules, may have similar therapeutic effects to parent MSCs. Among all of the components of the MSC-derived secretome, most interest thus far has been garnered by exosomes for their therapeutic potential. However, since MSCs were reported to undergo apoptosis after in vivo transplantation and release ABs, we speculated as to whether ABs have immunomodulatory effects. In this study, cytokine licensing was used to enhance the immunomodulatory potency of MSCs and ABs derived from licensed MSCs in vitro were isolated to explore their immunomodulatory effects as an effective non-viable cell therapy. RESULTS IFN-γ and IFN-γ/TGF-β1 licensing enhanced the immunomodulatory effect of MSCs on T cell proliferation. Further, TGF-β1 and IFN-γ licensing strengthened the immunomodulatory effect of MSC on reducing the TNF-α and IL-1β expression by M1 macrophage-like THP-1 cells. Additionally, we discovered the immunomodulatory effect mediated by MSC-derived apoptotic bodies. Licensing impacted the uptake of ABs by recipient immune cells and importantly altered their phenotypes. CONCLUSION ABs derived from IFN-γ/TGF-β1-licensed apoptotic MSCs significantly inhibited T cell proliferation, induced more regulatory T cells, and maintained immunomodulatory T cells but reduced pro-inflammatory T cells.

ApoSEVs-Mediated Modulation of Versatile Target Cells Promotes Diabetic Wound Healing: Unveiling a Promising Strategy. Int J Nanomedicine 2023; 18:6955-6977.

Abstract
Background Diabetic chronic wounds present a formidable challenge in clinical management, lacking effective treatment options. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation has emerged as a promising therapy for tissue repair and regeneration. However, transplanted MSCs often undergo rapid apoptosis, giving rise to heterogeneous extracellular vesicles (EVs), including apoptotic bodies (apoBDs) and apoptotic small extracellular vesicles (apoSEVs). The potential stimulatory role of these EVs in diabetic wound healing remains unknown. Methods In this study, we investigated the effects of apoSEVs derived from adipose-derived mesenchymal/stromal cells (ADSCs) on the recovery of diabetic wounds by modulating the function of versatile target cells. First, we characterized the apoSEVs and apoBDs derived from apoptotic ADSCs. Subsequently, we evaluated the effects of apoSEVs and apoBDs on macrophages, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts, three essential cell types in wound healing, under high-glucose conditions. Furthermore, we developed a gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel for the sustained release of apoSEVs and investigated its therapeutic effects on wound healing in type 2 diabetic mice in vivo. Results apoSEVs facilitated the polarization of M1 phenotype macrophages to M2 phenotype, promoted proliferation, migration, and tube formation of endothelial cells, and enhanced fibroblast proliferation and migration. However, apoBDs failed to improve the function of endothelial cells and fibroblasts. In vivo, the apoSEVs-loaded GelMA effectively promoted wound healing by facilitating collagen fiber deposition, angiogenesis, and immune regulation. Conclusion Our study elucidates the beneficial effects of apoSEVs on wound recovery in diabetes and introduces a novel strategy for diabetic wound treatment based on apoSEVs.

Abstract
Chronic wounds are wounds that cannot heal properly due to various factors, such as underlying diseases, infection or reinjury, and improper healing of skin wounds and ulcers can cause a serious economic burden. Numerous studies have shown that extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem/progenitor cells promote wound healing, reduce scar formation and have significant advantages over traditional treatment methods. EVs are membranous particles that carry various bioactive molecules from their cellular origins, such as cytokines, nucleic acids, enzymes, lipids and proteins. EVs can mediate cell-to-cell communication and modulate various physiological processes, such as cell differentiation, angiogenesis, immune response and tissue remodelling. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in EV-based wound healing, focusing on the signalling pathways that are regulated by EVs and their cargos. We discuss how EVs derived from different types of stem/progenitor cells can promote wound healing and reduce scar formation by modulating the Wnt/β-catenin, phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin, vascular endothelial growth factor, transforming growth factor β and JAK-STAT pathways. Moreover, we also highlight the challenges and opportunities for engineering or modifying EVs to enhance their efficacy and specificity for wound healing.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapies are increasingly recognized as promising cellular therapeutics and show the ability to treat various diseases. However, the underlying mechanism is not fully elucidated. Some recent studies have shown an unexpected result whereby MSCs undergo rapid apoptosis following administration but still exert therapeutic effects in some disease treatments. Such a therapeutic mechanism is believed to associate with the released apoptotic vesicles from apoptotic MSCs (MSC-ApoVs). This finding inspires a novel therapeutic strategy for using MSC-ApoVs for disease treatment. The present review aims to summarize the biogenesis, physiological functions, therapeutic potentials, and related mechanisms of apoptotic vesicles in MSC-based therapy. In addition, the potential applications of MSC-ApoVs as natural therapeutic agents and natural drug delivery vehicles are proposed and highlighted. The present review is hoped to provide a general understanding of MSC-ApoVs in disease treatment and inspire potential applications in targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
Cardiorenal syndrome type 4 (CRS type 4) occurs when chronic kidney disease (CKD) leads to cardiovascular damage, resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates. Mitochondria, vital organelles responsible for essential cellular functions, can become dysfunctional in CKD. This dysfunction can trigger inflammatory responses in distant organs by releasing Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). These DAMPs are recognized by immune receptors within cells, including Toll-like receptors (TLR) like TLR2, TLR4, and TLR9, the nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-containing family pyrin domain-containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, and the cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-adenosine monophosphate (AMP) synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) pathway. Activation of these immune receptors leads to the increased expression of cytokines and chemokines. Excessive chemokine stimulation results in the recruitment of inflammatory cells into tissues, causing chronic damage. Experimental studies have demonstrated that chemokines are upregulated in the heart during CKD, contributing to CRS type 4. Conversely, chemokine inhibitors have been shown to reduce chronic inflammation and prevent cardiorenal impairment. However, the molecular connection between mitochondrial DAMPs and inflammatory pathways responsible for chemokine overactivation in CRS type 4 has not been explored. In this review, we delve into mechanistic insights and discuss how various mitochondrial DAMPs released by the kidney during CKD can activate TLRs, NLRP3, and cGAS-STING immune pathways in the heart. This activation leads to the upregulation of chemokines, ultimately culminating in the establishment of CRS type 4. Furthermore, we propose using chemokine inhibitors as potential strategies for preventing CRS type 4.

Abstract
Diabetic wound is a great threat to patient's health and lives. The refractory diabetic wound shows spatial inflammation patterns, in which the early-wound pattern depicts a deprived acute inflammatory response, and the long-term non-healing wound pattern delineates an excessive and persistent inflammation due to the delayed immune cell infiltration in a positive feedback loop. In this work, we give points to some strategies to normalize the dysregulated immune process based on the spatial inflammation pattern differences in diabetic wound healing. First of all, inhibiting inflammatory response to avoid subsequent persistent and excessive immune infiltration for the early diabetic wound is proposed. However, diabetic wounds are unperceptive trauma that makes patients miss the best treatment time. Therefore, we also introduce two strategies for the long-term non-healing diabetic wound. One strategy is about changing chronic wounds to acute ones, which aims to rejuvenate M1 macrophages in diabetic wounds and make spontaneous M2 polarization possible. To activate the controllable proinflammatory response, western medicine delivers proinflammatory molecules while traditional Chinese medicine develops "wound-pus promoting granulation tissue growth theory". Another strategy to solve long-term non-healing wounds is seeking switches that target M1/M2 transition directly. These investigations draw a map that delineates strategies for enhancing diabetic wound healing from the perspective of spatial inflammation patterns systematically.

Abstract
Biologically active and nanoscale extracellular vesicles (EVs) participate in a variety of cellular physiological and pathological processes in a cell-free manner. Unlike cells, EVs not only do not cause acute immune rejection, but are much smaller and have a low risk of tumorigenicity or embolization. Because of their unique advantages, EVs show promise in applications in the diagnosis and treatment of reproductive disorders. As research broadens, engineering strategies for EVs have been developed, and engineering strategies for EVs have substantially improved their application potential while circumventing the defects of natural EVs, driving EVs toward clinical applications. In this paper, we will review the engineering strategies of EVs, as well as their regulatory effects and mechanisms on reproductive disorders (including premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA), intrauterine adhesion (IUA), and endometriosis (EMS)) and their application prospects. This work provides new ideas for the treatment of female reproductive disorders by engineering EVs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Apoptotic vesicles are extracellular vesicles generated by apoptotic cells that were previously regarded as containing waste or harmful substances but are now thought to play an important role in signal transduction and homeostasis regulation. METHODS In the present review, we reviewed many articles published over the past decades on the subtypes and formation of apoptotic vesicles and the existing applications of these vesicles. RESULTS Apoptotic bodies were once regarded as vesicles released by apoptotic cells, however, apoptotic vesicles are now regarded to include apoptotic bodies, apoptotic microvesicles and apoptotic exosomes, which exhibit variation in terms of biogenesis, sizes and properties. Applications of apoptotic vesicles were first reported long ago, but such reports have been rarer than those of other extracellular vesicles. At present, apoptotic vesicles have been utilized mainly in four aspects, including in direct therapeutic applications, in their engineering as carriers, in their construction as vaccines and in their utilization in diagnosis. CONCLUSION Building on a deeper understanding of their composition and characteristics, some studies have utilized apoptotic vesicles to treat diseases in more novel ways. However, their limitations for clinical translation, such as heterogeneity, have also emerged. In general, apoptotic vesicles have great application potential, but there are still many barriers to overcome in their investigation. Video Abstract.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-enclosed subcellular bodies produced by most, if not all cells. Research over the last two decades has recognised the importance of EVs in intercellular communication and horizontal transfer of biological material. EVs range in diameter from tens of nanometres up to several micrometres and are able to transfer a spectrum of biologically active cargoes - from whole organelles, through macromolecules including nucleic acids and proteins, to metabolites and small molecules - from their cells of origin to recipient cells, which may consequently become physiologically or pathologically altered. Based on their modes of biogenesis, the most renowned EV classes are (1) microvesicles, (2) exosomes (both produced by healthy cells), and (3) EVs from cells undergoing regulated death by apoptosis (ApoEVs). Microvesicles bud directly from the plasma membrane, while exosomes are derived from endosomal compartments. Current knowledge of the formation and functional properties of ApoEVs lags behind that of microvesicles and exosomes, but burgeoning evidence indicates that ApoEVs carry manifold cargoes, including mitochondria, ribosomes, DNA, RNAs, and proteins, and perform diverse functions in health and disease. Here we review this evidence, which demonstrates substantial diversity in the luminal and surface membrane cargoes of ApoEVs, permitted by their very broad size range (from around 50 nm to >5 μm; the larger often termed apoptotic bodies), strongly suggests their origins through both microvesicle- and exosome-like biogenesis pathways, and indicates routes through which they interact with recipient cells. We discuss the capacity of ApoEVs to recycle cargoes and modulate inflammatory, immunological, and cell fate programmes in normal physiology and in pathological scenarios such as cancer and atherosclerosis. Finally, we provide a perspective on clinical applications of ApoEVs in diagnostics and therapeutics. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Apoptosis, a form of programmed cell death, is essential for growth and tissue homeostasis. Apoptotic bodies (ApoBDs) are a form of extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by dying cells in the last stage of apoptosis and were previously regarded as debris of dead cells. Recent studies unraveled that ApoBDs are not cell debris but the bioactive treasure left behind by the dying cells with an important role in intercellular communications related to human health and various diseases. Defective clearance of ApoBDs and infected-cells-derived ApoBDs are possible etiology of some diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the function and mechanism of the action of ApoBDs in different physiological and pathological conditions. Recent advances in ApoBDs have elucidated the immunomodulatory, virus removal, vascular protection, tissue regenerative, and disease diagnostic potential of ApoBDs. Moreover, ApoBDs can be used as drug carriers enhancing drug stability, cellular uptake, and targeted therapy efficacy. These reports from the literature indicate that ApoBDs hold promising potential for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of various diseases, including cancer, systemic inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and tissue regeneration. This review summarizes the recent advances in ApoBDs-related research and discusses the role of ApoBDs in health and diseases as well as the challenges and prospects of ApoBDs-based diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a global disease with rising incidence worldwide, and its debilitating symptoms and dissatisfactory therapies have brought heavy burdens for patients. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), a heterogeneous population of lipid bilayer membranes containing abundant bioactive molecules, have been indicated to play important roles in the pathogenesis and treatment of many diseases. However, to our knowledge, comprehensive reviews summarizing the various roles of diverse source-derived EVs in the pathogenesis and treatment of IBD are still lacking. This review, not only summarizes the EV characteristics, but also focuses on the multiple roles of diverse EVs in IBD pathogenesis and their treatment potential. In addition, hoping to push forward the research frontiers, we point out several challenges that the researchers are faced, about EVs in current IBD research and future therapeutic applications. We also put forward our prospects on future exploration regarding EVs in IBD treatment, including developing IBD vaccines and paying more attention on apoptotic vesicles. This review is aimed to enrich the knowledge on the indispensable roles of EVs in IBD pathogenesis and treatment, providing ideas and reference for future therapeutic strategy for IBD treatment.

Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most aggressive oral and maxillofacial malignancy with a high incidence and low survival rate. OSCC is mainly diagnosed by tissue biopsy, which is a highly traumatic procedure with poor timeliness. Although there are various options for treating OSCC, most of them are invasive and have unpredictable therapeutic outcomes. Generally, early diagnosis and noninvasive treatment cannot be always satisfied simultaneously in OSCC. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are involved in intercellular communication. EVs facilitate disease progression and reflect the location and status of the lesions. Therefore, EVs are relatively less invasive diagnostic tools for OSCC. Furthermore, the mechanisms by which EVs are involved in tumorigenesis and tumor treatment have been well studied. This article dissects the involvement of EVs in the diagnosis, development, and treatment of OSCC, providing new insight into the treatment of OSCC by EVs. Different mechanisms, such as inhibiting EV internalization by OSCC cells and constructing engineered vesicles, with potential applications for treating OSCC will be discussed in this review article.

Abstract
Background: Glioma as a highly lethal tumor is difficult to treat since the blood-brain barrier (BBB) restricts drug delivery into the brain. It remains a huge need for developing strategies allowing drug passage across the BBB with high efficacy. Methods: Herein, we engineered drug-loaded apoptotic bodies (Abs) loaded with doxorubicin (Dox) and indocyanine green (ICG) to cross the BBB for the treatment of glioma. The confocal laser scanning microscopy was used to characterize the structure and evaluate the hitchhiking effect of the Abs. The in vivo BBB-crossing ability and photothermal-chemotherapeutic effect of the drug-loaded Abs were investigated in mice orthotopic glioma model. Results: Engineered Abs loaded with Dox and ICG were successfully prepared. The Abs were phagocytized by macrophages, actively penetrate the BBB in vitro and in vivo utilizing the hitchhiking effect. The whole in vivo process was visualized by near-infrared fluorescence signal with a signal-to-background ratio of 7 in a mouse model of orthotopic glioma. The engineered Abs achieved a combined photothermal-chemotherapeutic effect, leading to a median survival time of 33 days in glioma-bearing mice compared to 22 days in the control group. Conclusions: This study presents engineered drug carriers with the ability to hitchhike across the BBB, providing new opportunities for the treatment of glioma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Changes of macrophage in the local immune microenvironment of periodontitis cause alveolar bone resorption. This study aims to investigate the effect of a new drug delivery method of aspirin on the immune microenvironment of periodontitis to promote alveolar bone repair, and to explore mechanism of aspirin's effect on macrophage. METHODS We isolated extracellular vesicles (EVs) from periodontal stem cells (PDLSCs) and loaded with aspirin by sonication, and then evaluated the treatment efficacy of aspirin-loaded vesicles (EVs-ASP) in periodontitis model in mice. In vitro, we explored the role of EVs-ASP in the regulation of LPS-induced macrophages. The underlying mechanism by which EVs-ASP regulates phenotypic remodeling of macrophages in periodontitis was further investigated. RESULTS EVs-ASP inhibited the inflammatory environment of LPS-induced macrophage, and promoted anti-inflammatory macrophages formation both in vivo and in vitro, and reduced bone loss in periodontitis models. Moreover, EVs-ASP enhanced oxidative phosphorylation and suppressed glycolysis in macrophages. CONCLUSIONS Consequently, EVs-ASP improves the periodontal immune microenvironment by enhancing oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in macrophages, resulting in a certain degree of regeneration of alveolar bone height. Our study provides a new potential strategy for bone repair in periodontitis therapy.

[PMID: 37214784 PMCID: PMC10195177 DOI: 10.1155/2023/4586398] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells have shown noticeable potential for unlimited self-renewal. They can differentiate into specific somatic cells, integrate into target tissues via cell-cell contact, paracrine effects, exosomes, and other processes and then regulate the target cells and tissues. Studies have demonstrated that transplantation of MSCs could decrease the expression and concentration of collagen in the liver, thereby reducing liver fibrosis. A growing body of evidence indicates that apoptotic MSCs could inhibit harmful immune responses and reduce inflammatory responses more effectively than viable MSCs. Accumulating evidence suggests that mitochondrial transfer from MSCs is a novel strategy for the regeneration of various damaged cells via the rescue of their respiratory activities. This study is aimed at reviewing the functions of MSCs and the related roles of the programmed cell death of MSCs, including autophagy, apoptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis, as well as the regulatory pathogenic mechanisms of MSCs in liver fibrosis. Research has demonstrated that the miR-200B-3p gene is differentially expressed gene between LF and normal liver samples, and that the miR-200B-3p gene expression is positively correlated with the degree of liver fibrosis, suggesting that MSCs could inhibit liver fibrosis through pyroptosis. It was confirmed that circulating monocytes could deliver MSC-derived immunomodulatory molecules to different sites by phagocytosis of apoptotic MSCs, thereby achieving systemic immunosuppression. Accordingly, it was suggested that characterization of the programmed cell death-mediated immunomodulatory signaling pathways in MSCs should be a focus of research.

Red blood cell membrane-camouflaged poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microparticles as a potential controlled release drug delivery system for local stellate ganglion microinjection. Acta Biomater 2023; 161:201-212. [PMID: 36858164 PMCID: PMC10066835 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.02.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2023]
Abstract
The stellate ganglion (SG) is a part of the sympathetic nervous system that has important regulatory effects on several human tissues and organs in the upper body. SG block and intervention have been clinically and preclinically implemented to manage chronic pain in the upper extremities, neck, head, and upper chest as well as chronic heart failure. However, there has been very limited effort to develop and investigate polymer-based drug delivery systems for local delivery to the SG. In this study, we fabricated red blood cell (RBC) membrane-camouflaged poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) (PLGAM) microparticles for use as a potential long-term controlled release system for local drug delivery. The structure, size, and surface zeta potential results indicated that the spherical PLGAM microparticles were successfully fabricated. Both PLGA and PLGAM microparticles exhibited biocompatibility with human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSC) and satellite glial cells and showed hemocompatibility. In addition, both PLGA and PLGAM displayed no significant effects on the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines by human monocyte derived macrophages in vitro. We microinjected microparticles into rat SGs and evaluated the retention time of microparticles and the effects of the microparticles on inflammation in vivo over 21 days. Subsequently, we fabricated drug-loaded PLGAM microparticles by using GW2580, a colony stimulating factor-1 receptor inhibitor, as a model drug and assessed its encapsulation efficiency, drug release profiles, biocompatibility, and anti-inflammatory effects in vitro. Our results demonstrated the potential of PLGAM microparticles for long-term controlled local drug release in the SG. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: SG block by locally injecting therapeutics to inhibit the activity of the sympathetic nerves provides a valuable benefit to manage chronic pain and chronic heart failure. We describe the fabrication of RBC membrane-camouflaged PLGA microparticles with cytocompatibility, hemocompatibility, and low immunogenicity, and demonstrate that they can be successfully and safely microinjected into rat SGs. The microparticle retention time within SG is over 21 days without eliciting detectable inflammation. Furthermore, we incorporate a CSF-1R inhibitor as a model drug and demonstrate the capacities of long-term drug release and regulation of macrophage functions. The strategies demonstrate the feasibility to locally microinject therapeutics loaded microparticles into SGs and pave the way for further efficacy and disease treatment evaluation.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane vesicles released into the extracellular milieu by cells of various origins. They contain different biological cargoes, protecting them from degradation by environmental factors. There is an opinion that EVs have a number of advantages over synthetic carriers, creating new opportunities for drug delivery. In this review, we discuss the ability of EVs to function as carriers for therapeutic nucleic acids (tNAs), challenges associated with the use of such carriers in vivo, and various strategies for tNA loading into EVs.

Abstract
Impaired wound healing in chronic wounds has been a significant challenge for clinicians and researchers for decades. Traditional herbal medicine (THM) has a long history of promoting wound healing, making them culturally accepted and trusted by a great number of people in the world. However, for a long time, the understanding of herbal medicine has been limited and incomplete, particularly in the allopathic medicine-dominated research system. The therapeutic effects of individual components isolated from THM are found less pronounced compared to synthetic chemical medicine, and the clinical efficacy is always inferior to herbs. In the present article, we review and discuss underlying mechanisms of the skin microbiome involved in the wound healing process; THM in regulating immune responses and commensal microbiome. We additionally propose few pioneer ideas and studies in the development of therapeutic strategies for controlled delivery of herbal medicine. This review aims to promote wound care with a focus on wound microbiome, immune response, and topical drug delivery systems. Finally, future development trends, challenges, and research directions are discussed.

Sci Bull (Beijing) 2023; 68:826-837. [PMID: 36973107 DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2023.03.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023]
Abstract
Endothelial cell (EC) injury plays a key role in the chronic wound process. A long-term hypoxic microenvironment hinders the vascularization of ECs, thus delaying wound healing. In this study, CX3CL1-functionalized apoptotic body nanovesicles (nABs) were constructed. The "Find-eat" strategy was implemented through a receptor-ligand combination to target ECs that highly express CX3CR1 in the hypoxic microenvironment, therefore amplifying the "Find-eat" signal and promoting angiogenesis. Apoptotic bodies (ABs) were obtained by chemically inducing apoptosis of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), and then functionalized nABs containing deferoxamine (DFO-nABs) were obtained through a series of steps, including optimized hypotonic treatment, mild ultrasound, drug mixing and extrusion treatment. In vitro experiments showed that nABs had good biocompatibility and an effective "Find-eat" signal via CX3CL1/CX3CR1 to induce ECs in the hypoxic microenvironment, thereby promoting cell proliferation, cell migration and tube formation. In vivo experiments showed that nABs could promote the rapid closure of wounds, release the "Find-eat" signal to target ECs and realize the sustained release of angiogenic drugs to promote new blood vessel formation in diabetic wounds. These receptor-functionalized nABs, which can target ECs by releasing dual signals and achieve the sustained release of angiogenic drugs, may provide a novel strategy for chronic diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
A wide array of biocompatible micro/nanorobots are designed for targeted drug delivery and precision therapy largely depending on their self-adaptive ability overcoming complex barriers in vivo. Here, we report a twin-bioengine yeast micro/nanorobot (TBY-robot) with self-propelling and self-adaptive capabilities that can autonomously navigate to inflamed sites for gastrointestinal inflammation therapy via enzyme-macrophage switching (EMS). Asymmetrical TBY-robots effectively penetrated the mucus barrier and notably enhanced their intestinal retention using a dual enzyme-driven engine toward enteral glucose gradient. Thereafter, the TBY-robot was transferred to Peyer's patch, where the enzyme-driven engine switched in situ to macrophage bioengine and was subsequently relayed to inflamed sites along a chemokine gradient. Encouragingly, EMS-based delivery increased drug accumulation at the diseased site by approximately 1000-fold, markedly attenuating inflammation and ameliorating disease pathology in mouse models of colitis and gastric ulcers. These self-adaptive TBY-robots represent a safe and promising strategy for the precision treatment of gastrointestinal inflammation and other inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Chronic non-healing wounds have posed a severe threat to patients mentally and physically. Behavior dysregulation of remaining cells at wound sites is recognized as the chief culprit to destroy healing process and hinders wound healing. Therefore, regulating and restoring normal cellular behavior is the core of chronic non-healing wound treatment. In recent years, the therapy with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has become a promising option for chronic wound healing and the efficacy has increasingly been attributed to their exocrine functions. Small extracellular vesicles derived from MSCs (MSC-sEVs) are reported to benefit almost all stages of wound healing by regulating the cellular behavior to participate in the process of inflammatory response, angiogenesis, re-epithelization, and scarless healing. Here, we describe the characteristics of MSC-sEVs and discuss their therapeutic potential in chronic wound treatment. Additionally, we also provide an overview of the application avenues of MSC-sEVs in wound treatment. Finally, we summarize strategies for large-scale production and engineering of MSC-sEVs. This review may possibly provide meaningful guidance for chronic wound treatment with MSC-sEVs.

Abstract
Immediate restriction of iron initiated by the host is a critical process to protect against bacterial infections and has been described in the liver and spleen, but it remains unclear whether this response also entails a humoral mechanism that would enable systemic sequestering of iron upon infection. Here we show that upon bacterial invasion, host macrophages immediately release extracellular vesicles (EVs) that capture circulating iron-containing proteins. Mechanistically, in a sepsis model in female mice, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium induces endoplasmic reticulum stress in macrophages and activates inositol-requiring enzyme 1α signaling, triggering lysosomal dysfunction and thereby promoting the release of EVs, which bear multiple receptors required for iron uptake. By binding to circulating iron-containing proteins, these EVs prevent bacteria from iron acquisition, which inhibits their growth and ultimately protects against infection and related tissue damage. Our findings reveal a humoral mechanism that can promptly regulate systemic iron metabolism during bacterial infection.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a process of over-extracellular matrix (ECM) aggregation and angiogenesis, which develops into cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). With the increasing pressure of liver fibrosis, new therapeutics to cure this disease requires much attention. Exosome-cargoed microRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging approaches in the precision of the liver fibrotic paradigm. In this review, we outlined the different types of hepatic cells derived miRNAs that drive intra-/extra-cellular interactive communication in liver fibrosis with different physiological and pathological processes. Specifically, we highlighted the possible mechanism of liver fibrosis pathogenesis associated with immune response and angiogenesis. In addition, potential clinical biomarkers and different stem cell transplant-derived miRNAs-based therapeutic strategies in liver fibrosis were summarized in this review. miRNAs-based approaches might help researchers devise new candidates for the cell-free treatment of liver fibrosis. This article is categorized under: RNA in Disease and Development > RNA in Disease.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes tremendous harm to a patient's physical, mental, and financial health. Moreover, recovery of SCI is affected by many factors, inflammation is one of the most important as it engulfs necrotic tissue and cells during the early stages of injury. However, excessive inflammation is not conducive to damage repair. Macrophages are classified into either blood-derived macrophages or resident microglia based on their origin, their effects on SCI being two-sided. Microglia first activate and recruit blood-derived macrophages at the site of injury-blood-borne macrophages being divided into pro-inflammatory M1 phenotypes and anti-inflammatory M2 phenotypes. Among them, M1 macrophages secrete inflammatory factors such as interleukin-β (IL-β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-6, and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) at the injury site, which aggravates SCIs. M2 macrophages secrete IL-4, IL-10, IL-13, and neurotrophic factors to inhibit the inflammatory response and inhibit neuronal apoptosis. Consequently, modulating phenotypic differentiation of macrophages appears to be a meaningful therapeutic target for the treatment of SCI. Biomaterials are widely used in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering due to their targeting and bio-histocompatibility. In this review, we describe the effects of biomaterials applied to modulate macrophage phenotypes on SCI recovery and provide an outlook.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are non-hematopoietic progenitor cells with self-renewal ability and multipotency of osteogenic, chondrogenic, and adipogenic differentiation. MSCs have appeared as a promising approach for tissue regeneration and immune therapies, which are attributable not only to their differentiation into the desired cells but also to their paracrine secretion. MSC-sourced secretome consists of soluble components including growth factors, chemokines, cytokines, and encapsulated extracellular vesicles (EVs). Apoptotic bodies (ABs) are large EVs (diameter 500𠀓2000 nm) harboring a variety of cellular components including microRNA, mRNA, DNA, protein, and lipids related to the characteristics of the originating cell, which are generated during apoptosis. The released ABs as well as the genetic information they carry are engulfed by target cells such as macrophages, dendritic cells, epithelial cells, and fibroblasts, and subsequently internalized and degraded in the lysosomes, suggesting their ability to facilitate intercellular communication. In this review, we discuss the current understanding of the biological functions and therapeutic potential of MSC-derived ABs, including immunomodulation, tissue regeneration, regulation of inflammatory response, and drug delivery system.

Abstract
Cancer vaccine, which can promote tumor-specific immunostimulation, is one of the most important immunotherapeutic strategies and holds tremendous potential for cancer treatment/prevention. Here, we prepare a series of nanoparticles composed of doxorubicin- and tyrosine kinase inhibitor-loaded and hyaluronic acid-coated dendritic polymers (termed HDDT nanoparticles) and find that the HDDT nanoparticles can convert various cancer cells to micrometer-sized vesicles (1.6-3.2 μm; termed HMVs) with ~100% cell-to-HMV conversion efficiency. We confirm in two tumor-bearing mouse models that the nanoparticles can restrain tumor growth, induce robust immunogenic cell death, and convert the primary tumor into an antigen depot by producing HMVs in situ to serve as personalized vaccines for cancer immunotherapy. Furthermore, the HDDT-healed mice show a strong immune memory effect and the HDDT treatment can realize long-term protection against tumor rechallenge. Collectively, the present work provides a general strategy for the preparation of tumor-associated antigen-containing vesicles and the development of personalized cancer vaccines.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a class of nanoparticles that are derived from almost any type of cell in the organism tested thus far and are present in all body fluids. With the capacity to transfer "functional cargo and biological information" to regulate local and distant intercellular communication, EVs have developed into an attractive focus of research for various physiological and pathological conditions. The oral cavity is a special organ of the human body. It includes multiple types of tissue, and it is also the beginning of the digestive tract. Moreover, the oral cavity harbors thousands of bacteria. The importance and particularity of oral function indicate that EVs derived from oral cavity are quite complex but promising for further research. This review will discuss the extensive source of EVs in the oral cavity, including both cell sources and cell-independent sources. Besides, accumulating evidence supports extensive biomedical applications of extracellular vesicles in oral tissue regeneration and development, diagnosis and treatment of head and neck tumors, diagnosis and therapy of systemic disease, drug delivery, and horizontal gene transfer (HGT). The immune cell source, odontoblasts and ameloblasts sources, diet source and the application of EVs in tooth development and HGT were reviewed for the first time. In conclusion, we concentrate on the extensive source and potential applications offered by these nanovesicles in oral science.

Abstract
Background Lactate has long been considered an intermediate by-product of glucose metabolism. However, in recent years, accumulating evidence reveals that lactate has unique biological activities. In previous studies, lactate signaling was shown to inhibit inflammation. Furthermore, in vitro experiments have shown that lactate can promote the transformation of pro-inflammatory macrophages into anti-inflammatory macrophages. However, no in vivo studies have shown whether lactate can alleviate inflammation. Methods RAW 264.7 macrophages were stimulated by LPS to induce an M1 phenotype, and cultured with low and high concentrations of lactate. The cells were then observed for phenotypic transformations and expression of inflammatory mediators and surface markers. The expression of inflammatory factors was also analyzed in the cell-free supernatant fraction. Further, a mouse model of DSS-induced colitis was established and treated with lactate. Colonic tissue injury was monitored by histopathological examinations. Results The in vitro experiments showed that lactate promoted the transformation of activated macrophages to M2 phenotype and decreased the expression of TLR4-mediated NF-κB signaling proteins and inflammatory factors. In the DSS-induced colitis mouse model, lactate promoted the phenotypic transformation of macrophages in colonic tissue, reduced inflammation and organ damage, inhibited the activation of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway, decreased the serum levels of pro-inflammatory factors, increased the expression of anti-inflammatory factors, promoted the repair of the intestinal mucosal barrier and reduced the severity of colitis. Conclusions Lactate inhibits the TLR/NF-κB signaling pathway and the production of pro-inflammatory factors by promoting polarization of macrophages. In addition, lactate promotesthe repair of the intestinal mucosal barrier and protects intestinal tissue in inflammation. Furthermore, lactate is relatively safe. Therefore, lactate is a promising and effective drug for treating inflammation through immunometabolism regulation.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been a life threat for patients in ICUs. Vast efforts have been devoted, while no medication has proved viable, which may be ascribed to inadequate drug delivery to damaged tissues and insufficient control of lung inflammation. Given the anti-inflammatory role of M2-type macrophages, M2 macrophage-derived nanovesicles and lung-targeting liposomes are cofused to fabricate hybrid liposomes-nanovesicles (LNVs). Benefiting from the incorporated lung-homing moiety, LNVs demonstrate high pulmonary accumulation with a lung/liver ratio of 14.9, which is approximately 53.3-fold of free nanovesicles. Thus, M2 macrophage-derived nanovesicles can be delivered to lung tissues for executing immunoregulatory functions. LNVs display phagocytosis by the infiltrated neutrophils and macrophages, exhibiting sustained release of preloaded IKK-2 inhibitor (TPCA-1). The integrated nanosystems demonstrate multidimensional suppression of the overwhelming inflammation, such as decreasing infiltration of inflammatory cells, achieving restraint on cytokine storms and alleviating oxidative stress. Therefore, the improved therapeutic outcome in ARDS mice is obtained. Altogether, the hybrid nanoplatform provides a versatile drug delivery paradigm for integrating biological nanovesicles and therapeutic molecules by cofusion of nanovesicles with liposomes, improving lung biodistribution and accomplishing a boosted anti-inflammatory response for ARDS therapy.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as promising candidates for multiple biomedical applications. Major types of EVs include exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies (ABs). ABs are conferred most properties from parent cells in the final stages of apoptosis. A wide variety of sources and stable morphological features are endowed to ABs by the rigorous apoptotic program. ABs accommodate more functional biomolecules by relying on the larger volume and maintaining their naturalness in circulation. The predominant body surface ratio of ABs facilitates their recognition by recipient cells and is advantageous for interactions with microenvironments. ABs can modulate and alleviate symptoms of numerous diseases for their origins, circulation, and high biocompatibility. In addition, ABs have been emerging in disease diagnosis, immunotherapy, regenerative therapy, and drug delivery. Here, we aim to present a thorough discussion on current knowledge about ABs. Of particular interest, we will summarize the application of AB-based strategies for diagnosis and disease therapy. Perspectives for the development of ABs in biomedical applications are highlighted.

Abstract
Apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) are specific extracellular vesicles generated during apoptosis and play important roles in multiple physiological and pathophysiological settings. Here, we present a protocol using differential centrifugation to separate apoVs from human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) after induction of apoptosis. We describe how to characterize apoV size and morphology by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and determination of specific biomarker expression by immunoblotting. Our protocol will be useful for preparing apoVs for further functional analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Zheng et al. (2021).
