Dissolvable microneedle-based wound dressing transdermally and continuously delivers anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic exosomes for diabetic wound treatment. Bioact Mater 2024; 42:32-51. [PMID: 39280578 PMCID: PMC11399477 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.08.016] [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: 05/05/2024] [Revised: 07/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/17/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Due to overactive inflammation and hindered angiogenesis, self-healing of diabetic wounds (DW) remains challenging in the clinic. Platelet-derived exosomes (PLT-Exos), a novel exosome capable of anti-inflammation and pro-angiogenesis, show great potential in DW treatment. However, previous administration of exosomes into skin wounds is topical daub or intradermal injection, which cannot intradermally deliver PLT-Exos into the dermis layer, thus impeding its long-term efficacy in anti-inflammation and pro-angiogenesis. Herein, a dissolvable microneedle-based wound dressing (PLT-Exos@ADMMA-MN) was developed for transdermal and long-term delivery of PLT-Exos. Firstly, a photo-crosslinking methacrylated acellular dermal matrix-based hydrogel (ADMMA-GEL), showing physiochemical tailorability, fast-gelling performance, excellent biocompatibility, and pro-angiogenic capacities, was synthesized as a base material of our dressing. For endowing the dressing with anti-inflammation and pro-angiogenesis, PLT-Exos were encapsulated into ADMMA-GEL with a minimum effective concentration determined by our in-vitro experiments. Then, in-vitro results show that this dressing exhibits excellent properties in anti-inflammation and pro-angiogenesis. Lastly, in-vivo experiments showed that this dressing could continuously and transdermally deliver PLT-Exos into skin wounds to switch local macrophage into M2 phenotype while stimulating neovascularization, thus proving a low-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic microenvironment for DW healing. Collectively, this study provides a novel wound dressing capable of suppressing inflammation and stimulating vascularization for DW treatment.

[PMID: 39287127 DOI: 10.1080/09537104.2024.2397592] [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: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/19/2024]
Abstract
Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) are released by platelets in the blood circulation, which carry a rich bio-molecular cargo influential in intercellular communications. PEVs can enter the lymph, bone marrow, and synovial fluid as nano-sized particles, while platelets cannot cross tissue barriers. Considering the advantages of PEVs such as low immunogenicity, high regulation of signal transduction, and easy obtainment, PEVs may be promising therapeutic tools for medical applications. The exceptional functional roles played by PEVs explain the recent interest in exploring new cell-free therapies that could address needs in angiogenesis, regenerative medicine, and targeted drug delivery. The review takes a critical look at the main advances of PEVs in the treatment of diseases by presenting the latest knowledge from the performed studies, in order to enhance the further translation of the PEVs research into feasible therapeutic applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chondrocyte viability, apoptosis, and migration are closely related to cartilage injury in osteoarthritis (OA) joints. Exosomes are identified as potential therapeutic agents for OA. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the role of exosomes derived from osteocytes in OA, particularly focusing on their effects on cartilage repair and molecular mechanisms. METHODS An injury cell model was established by treating chondrocytes with IL-1β. Cartilage repair was evaluated using cell counting kit-8, flow cytometry, scratch test, and Western Blot. Molecular mechanisms were analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR, bioinformatic analysis, and Western Blot. An OA mouse model was established to explore the role of exosomal DLX2 in vivo. RESULTS Osteocyte-released exosomes promoted cell viability and migration, and inhibited apoptosis and extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition. Moreover, exosomes upregulated DLX2 expression, and knockdown of DLX2 activated the Wnt pathway. Additionally, exosomes attenuated OA in mice by transmitting DLX2. CONCLUSION Osteocyte-derived exosomal DLX2 alleviated IL-1β-induced cartilage repair and inactivated the Wnt pathway, thereby alleviating OA progression. The findings suggested that osteocyte-derived exosomes may hold promise as a treatment for OA.

Abstract
Natural polysaccharide-based active-ingredient carriers have been a source of great concern for a long time. In order to explore potential antibiotics and probiotics carriers, a novel injectable chondroitin sulfate/salecan (CS) hydrogel was constructed by forming dynamic hydrazone bonds. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), bacteriostatic test, and rheological experiments were used to investigate the chemical structure, inherent morphology, and enzymatic corruption of the hydrogel in vitro. The resulting hydrogels exhibited ideal probiotics loading capacity, drug release behavior, excellent antimicrobial activity and variable properties. Crucially, owing to its exceptional biocompatibility and reversible crosslinking network, this hydrogel can function as a three-dimensional extracellular matrix for cells, enabling cells to maintain high vitality and proliferation, and promote wound healing. The aforementioned findings indicated that this novel hydrogel can be a promising candidate as an active-ingredient carrier and scaffold material for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Treating cartilage damage is challenging as its ability for self-regeneration is limited. Left untreated, it can progress to osteoarthritis (OA), a joint disorder characterized by the deterioration of articular cartilage and other joint tissues. Surgical options, such as microfracture and cell/tissue transplantation, have shown promise as techniques to harness the body's endogenous regenerative capabilities to promote cartilage repair. Nonetheless, these techniques have been scrutinized due to reported inconsistencies in long-term outcomes and the tendency for the defects to regenerate as fibrocartilage instead of the smooth hyaline cartilage native to joint surfaces. Orthobiologics are medical therapies that utilize biologically derived substances to augment musculoskeletal healing. These treatments are rising in popularity because of their potential to enhance surgical standards of care. More recent developments in orthobiologics have focused on the role of exosomes in articular cartilage repair. Exosomes are nano-sized extracellular vesicles containing cargo such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, and are known to facilitate intercellular communication, though their regenerative potential still needs to be fully understood. This review aims to demonstrate the advancements in cartilage regeneration, highlight surgical and biological treatment options, and discuss the recent strides in understanding the precise mechanisms of action involved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cytokine storm triggered by sepsis can lead to the development of acute lung injury (ALI). Human umbilical cord Mesenchymal stem cells derived exosomes (HucMSCs-EXOs) have been demonstrated to possess immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory properties. Programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD-1) plays a crucial role in maintaining the inflammatory immune homeostasis. The aim of this study is to investigate the synergistic therapeutic effect of EXOs loaded with anti-PD-1 peptide on septic-ALI. METHODS This study prepares a novel EXOs-based drug, named MEP, by engineering modification of HucMSCs-EXOs, which are non-immunogenic extracellular vesicles, loaded with anti-PD-1 peptide. The therapeutic effect and potential mechanism of MEP on septic-ALI are elucidated through in vivo and in vitro experiments, providing experimental evidence for the treatment of septic acute lung injury with MEP. RESULTS We found that, compared to individual components (anti-PD-1 peptide or EXOs), MEP treatment can more effectively improve the lung injury index of septic-ALI mice, significantly reduce the expression levels of inflammatory markers CRP and PCT, as well as pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β in serum, decrease lung cell apoptosis, and significantly increase the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 and CD68+ macrophages. In vitro, MEP co-culture promotes the proliferation of CD206+ macrophages, increases the M2/M1 macrophage ratio, and attenuates the inflammatory response. GEO data analysis and qRT-PCR validation show that MEP reduces the expression of inflammasome-related genes and M1 macrophage marker iNOS. CONCLUSION In both in vitro and in vivo settings, MEP demonstrates superior therapeutic efficacy compared to individual components in the context of septic-ALI.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) compromises the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) and induces neuroinflammation, potentially exacerbating neuronal damage. This underscores the importance of maintaining BSCB integrity and mitigating neuroinflammation in SCI treatment. Our study explores an innovative approach to treating SCI by utilizing platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PRP-Exos) to stabilize BSCB function and alleviate neuroinflammation. We successfully isolated exosomes from platelet-rich plasma and conducted both in vivo and in vitro experiments to assess the therapeutic effects of PRP-Exos and explore their potential mechanisms in stabilizing the BSCB, reducing neuroinflammation, and promoting neural functional recovery.In vitro results demonstrate that PRP-Exos significantly reduce the permeability of bEnd.3 cells under hypoxic-hypoglycemic conditions, thereby restoring the integrity of tight junctions. Additionally, our study elucidates the critical role of the NF-κB signaling pathway in the amelioration of neuroinflammation by PRP-Exos. In the SCI model, local injection of hydrogel-encapsulated PRP-Exos reduced Evans blue dye leakage, enhanced the expression of tight junction proteins, alleviated the inflammatory environment in the damaged area, and improved neural functional recovery. In conclusion, PRP-Exos presents a promising and effective treatment option for SCI.

Abstract
Exosomes, a specialised type of extracellular vesicle, have attracted significant attention in the realm of tendon/ligament repair as a potential biologic therapeutic tool. While the competence of key substances responsible for the delivery function was gradually elucidated, series of shortcomings exemplified by the limited stability still need to be improved. Therefore, how to take maximum advantage of the biological characteristics of exosomes is of great importance. Recently, the comprehensive exploration and application of biomedical engineering has improved the availability of exosomes and revealed the future direction of exosomes combined with biomaterials. This review delves into the present application of biomaterials such as nanomaterials, hydrogels, and electrospun scaffolds, serving as the carriers of exosomes in tendon/ligament repair. By pinpointing and exploring their strengths and limitations, it offers valuable insights, paving the way the future direction of biomaterials in the application of exosomes in tendon/ligament repair in this field.

Abstract
Skeletal diseases impose a considerable burden on society. The clinical and tissue-engineering therapies applied to alleviate such diseases frequently result in complications and are inadequately effective. Research has shifted from conventional therapies based on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to exosomes derived from MSCs. Exosomes are natural nanocarriers of endogenous DNA, RNA, proteins, and lipids and have a low immune clearance rate and good barrier penetration and allow targeted delivery of therapeutics. MSC-derived exosomes (MSC-exosomes) have the characteristics of both MSCs and exosomes, and so they can have both immunosuppressive and tissue-regenerative effects. Despite advances in our knowledge of MSC-exosomes, their regulatory mechanisms and functionalities are unclear. Here we review the therapeutic potential of MSC-exosomes for skeletal diseases.

Abstract
Novel wound dressings with therapeutic effects are being continually designed to improve the wound healing process. In this study, the structural, chemical, physical, and biological properties of an electrospun poly glycerol sebacate/poly lactide acid/platelet-rich plasma (PGS/PLA-PRP) nanofibers were evaluated to determine its impacts on in vitro wound healing. Results revealed desirable cell viability in the Fibroblast (L929) and macrophage (RAW-264.7) cell lines as well as human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Cell migration was evident in the scratch assay (L929 cell line) so that it promoted scratch contraction to accelerate in vitro wound healing. Moreover, addition of PRP to the fiber structure led to enhanced collagen deposition (~ 2 times) in comparison with PGS/PLA scaffolds. While by addition PRP to PGS/PLA fibers not only decreased the expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α) in RAW-264.7 cells but also led to significantly increased levels of cytokine (IL-10) and the growth factor (TGF-β), which are related to the anti-inflammatory phase (M2 phenotype). Finally, PGS/PLA-PRP was found to induce a significant level of angiogenesis by forming branching points, loops, and tubes. Based on the results obtained, the PGS/PLA-PRP dressing developed might be a promising evolution in skin tissue engineering ensuring improved wound healing and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Small extracellular vesicles were shown to have similar functional roles to their parent cells without the defect of potential tumorigenicity, which made them a great candidate for regenerative medicine. The last twenty years have witnessed the rapid development of research on small extracellular vesicles. In this paper, we employed a scientometric synthesis method to conduct a retrospective analysis of small extracellular vesicles in the field of bone-related diseases. The overall background analysis consisted the visualization of the countries, institutions, journals, and authors involved in research. The current status of the research direction and future trends were presented through the analysis of references and keywords, which showed that engineering strategies, mesenchymal stem cell derived exosomes, and cartilage damage were the most concerning topics, and scaffold, osteoarthritis, platelet-rich plasma, and senescence were the future trends. We also discussed the current problems and challenges in practical applications, including the in-sight mechanisms, the building of relevant animal models, and the problems in clinical trials. By using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, and Bibliometrix, the presented data avoided subjective selectivity and tendency well, which made the conclusion more reliable and comprehensive. We hope that the findings can provide new perspectives for researchers to understand the evolution of this field over time and to search for novel research directions.

Platelet-rich plasma-derived extracellular vesicles inhibit NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway-mediated pyroptosis in intervertebral disc degeneration via the MALAT1/microRNA-217/SIRT1 axis. Cell Signal 2024; 117:111106. [PMID: 38373669 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2024.111106] [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: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a main contributor to lower back pain, and compression stress-induced apoptosis of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation has been implicated in the IDD progression. The functions of platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-derived extracellular vesicles (PRP-EVs) in regulating these biological processes remain unclear in IDD. Here, we aimed to investigate the key role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MALAT1 incorporated in PRP-EVs in IDD. METHODS Tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)-induced damage in NP cells was treated with PRP-EVs extracted from healthy volunteers, followed by MTT, EdU, TUNEL, and Western blot assays. IDD mice were also treated with PRP-EVs. Histomorphological and pathological changes were evaluated. The pyroptosis of cells and the degradation of ECM were detected by ELISA and immunohistochemistry. We screened the differentially expressed lncRNAs in NP cells after PRP-EVs treatment by microarray analysis. The downstream targets of MALAT1 in NP cells were predicted and validated by rescue experiments. FINDINGS TBHP induction reduced cell proliferation and exacerbated pyroptosis and ECM degradation, and PRP-EVs inhibited TBHP-induced cell damage. PRP-EVs-treated mice with IDD had reduced Thompson scores, increased NP tissue content, and restored ECM. PRP-EVs upregulated MALAT1 expression in vivo and in vitro, whereas MALAT1 downregulation exacerbated NP cell pyroptosis and ECM degradation. MALAT1 upregulated SIRT1 expression by downregulating microRNA (miR)-217 in NP cells. SIRT1 blocked the NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway-mediated pyroptosis, thereby alleviating IDD. INTERPRETATION PRP-EVs deliver MALAT1 to regulate miR-217/SIRT1, thereby controlling NP cell pyroptosis in IDD.

Exp Eye Res 2024; 241:109837. [PMID: 38382576 DOI: 10.1016/j.exer.2024.109837] [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: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
The lens is an avascular tissue, where epithelial cells (LECs) are the primary living cells. The role of LECs-derived exosomes (LEC-exos) is largely unknown. In our study, we determined the anti-angiogenic role of LEC-exos, manifested as regressed retinal neovascularization (NV) using the oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR), and reduced choroidal NV size and pathological vascular leakage using the laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (laser-induced CNV). Furthermore, the activation and accumulation of microglia were also restricted by LEC-exos. Based on Luminex multiplex assays, the expressions of chemokines such as SCYB16/CXCL16, MCP-1/CCL2, I-TAC/CXCL11, and MIP 3beta/CCL19 were decreased after treatment with LEC-exos. Transwell assays showed that LEC-exos restricted the migration of the mouse microglia cell line (BV2 cells). After incubation with LEC-exos-treated BV2 cells, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (hUVECs) were collected for further evaluation using tube formation, Transwell assays, and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EDU) assays. Using in vitro experiments, the pro-angiogenic effect of microglia was restricted by LEC-exos. Hence, it was investigated that LEC-exos attenuated ocular NV, which might attribute to the inhibition of microglial activation and accumulation.

Abstract
Wound healing will be enhanced using structures with therapeutic effects. This study fabricated a novel nanofibrous scaffold for skin tissue regeneration using a coaxial structure polyglycerol sebacate (PGS)/platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was embedded in the core and two different compositions were selected for the shell; in one group, polycaprolactone (PCL), and in the other group, PGS/PCL blend was used. The physical, mechanical behavior, drug delivery patterns, and cell response of scaffolds were evaluated. Results revealed that by adding PRP to the core and PGS to the shell, fiber diameters decreased to 260.8 ± 31.3 nm. It also decreased the water contact angle from 66° to 32°, that is ideal candidate for cell attachment. The drug release showed a burst release pattern in the first 30 min, followed by a continuous and slow release during the first day. Adding PGS to the shell decreased the elastic modulus, and its value reached about 500 kPa, which is near the skin elastic modulus and will lead to greater mechanical compatibility for cell proliferation. Particularly, the addition of PRP to the fiber structure enhanced the cell viability and cell adhesion with a suitable morphology. Based on the results, nanofibrous PGS-PRP/PGS-PCL dressing can enhance skin tissue regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) presents a significant clinical challenge, leading to enduring sensory-motor impairments. While mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy holds promise for PNI treatment, enhancing its neurotrophic effects remains crucial. Platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PRP-Exo), rich in bioactive molecules for intercellular communication, offer potential for modulating cellular biological activity. METHODS PRP-Exo was isolated, and its impact on MSC viability was evaluated. The effects of PRP-Exo-treated MSCs (MSCPExo) on Schwann cells (SCs) from injured sciatic nerves and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were assessed. Furthermore, the conditioned medium from MSCPExo (MSCPExo-CM) was analyzed using a cytokine array and validated through ELISA and Western blot. RESULTS PRP-Exo enhanced MSC viability. Coculturing MSCPExo with SCs ameliorated apoptosis and promoted SC proliferation following PNI. Similarly, MSCPExo-CM exhibited pro-proliferative, migratory, and angiogenic effects. Cytokine array analysis identified 440 proteins in the MSCPExo secretome, with 155 showing upregulation and 6 showing downregulation, many demonstrating potent pro-regenerative properties. ELISA confirmed the enrichment of several angiotrophic and neurotrophic factors. Additionally, Western blot analysis revealed the activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in MSCPExo. CONCLUSION Preconditioning MSCs with PRP-Exo enhanced the paracrine function, particularly augmenting neurotrophic and pro-angiogenic secretions, demonstrating an improved potential for neural repair.

Platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes boost mesenchymal stem cells to promote peripheral nerve regeneration. J Control Release 2024; 367:265-282. [PMID: 38253204 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2024.01.043] [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: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) remains a severe clinical problem with debilitating consequences. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy is promising, but the problems of poor engraftment and insufficient neurotrophic effects need to be overcome. Herein, we isolated platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PRP-Exos), which contain abundant bioactive molecules, and investigated their potential to increase the regenerative capacity of MSCs. We observed that PRP-Exos significantly increased MSC proliferation, viability, and mobility, decreased MSC apoptosis under stress, maintained MSC stemness, and attenuated MSC senescence. In vivo, PRP-Exo-treated MSCs (pExo-MSCs) exhibited an increased retention rate and heightened therapeutic efficacy, as indicated by increased axonal regeneration, remyelination, and recovery of neurological function in a PNI model. In vitro, pExo-MSCs coculture promoted Schwann cell proliferation and dorsal root ganglion axon growth. Moreover, the increased neurotrophic behaviour of pExo-MSCs was mediated by trophic factors, particularly glia-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), and PRP-Exos activated the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway in MSCs, leading to the observed phenotypes. These findings demonstrate that PRP-Exos may be novel agents for increasing the ability of MSCs to promote neural repair and regeneration in patients with PNI.

Abstract
Although platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PRP-Exos) hold significant repair potential, their efficacy in treating rotator cuff tear (RCT) remains unknown. In light of the potential for clinical translation of fibrin gel and PRP-Exos, we evaluated their combined impact on RCT healing and explored suitable gel implantation techniques. In vitro experiments demonstrated that PRP-Exos effectively enhanced key phenotypes changes in tendon stem/progenitor cells. Multi-modality imaging, including conventional ultrasound, shear wave elastography ultrasound, and micro-computed tomography, and histopathological assessments were performed to collectively evaluate the regenerative effects on RCT. The regenerated tendons exhibited a well-ordered structure, while bone and cartilage regeneration were significantly improved. PRP-Exos participated in the healing process of RCT. In-situ gelation of fibrin gel-encapsulated PRP-Exos at the bone-tendon interface during surgery proved to be a feasible gel implantation method that benefits the healing outcome. Comprehensive multi-modality postoperative evaluations were necessary, providing a reliable foundation for post-injury repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rotator cuff tear (RCT) is the most common type of shoulder joint injury, platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PRP-exos) are highly promising in tissue repair and regeneration. The purpose of this study was to determine the function of PRP-exos in rotator cuff tendon-bone healing. METHODS PRP-exos were isolated from the rabbit whole blood by differential ultracentrifugation and characterized through transmission electron microscopy assay, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blotting. Alkaline phosphatase and Von Kossa staining were used to show tendon-derived stem cell (TDSC) differentiation. RT-qPCR and western blotting were performed to detect COL II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1. To determine the therapeutic effects of PRP-exos in vivo. Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were divided into control, model, and PRP-exos groups. The RCT animal model was constructed. The changes in tendon-bone tissue were determined by HE staining. Contents of COL-II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1 were determined by immunohistochemistry staining. RESULTS PRP-exos were successfully isolated from rabbit blood. PRP-exos promoted TDSC proliferation and differentiation and also induced tendon-specific markers COL II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1 production. In vivo study revealed that PRP-exos promoted early healing of injured tendons. Rabbits treated with PRP-exos had better tissue arrangement in the tear site. Additionally, the contents of COL II, SOX-9, and TIMP-1 were also increased in the RCT rabbit model after PRP-exos treatment. CONCLUSIONS PRP-exos enhanced tendon-bone healing by promoting TDSC proliferation and differentiation. This finding indicates that PRP-exos can serve as a promising strategy to treat rotator cuff tendon-bone healing.

Abstract
Microglia are important cells that act on regulating neuroinflammation and neurofunction after the induction of ischemic stroke (IS). Consequently, the efficient accumulation of drugs within ischemic regions, particularly in microglia, serves as a valuable approach for achieving effective therapy by attenuating microglia-mediated cerebral ischemic injury. In this study, we designed mannose (man)-conjugated luteolin (lut)-loaded platelet-derived exosomes (lut/man-pEXO) as surface engineered multifunctional cascade-delivery drug carriers to target ischemic blood vessels and subsequent microglia to enhance drug accumulation and induce neuroprotection of neurovascular unit (NVU) against IS. The results revealed that as platelets naturally gathered in pathological ischemic cerebral vessels, lut/man-pEXO could bind to platelets and efficiently target ischemic injury sites. Moreover, owing to the selective binding affinity of mannose present in lut/man-pEXO towards the mannose receptor expressed on microglia, lut/man-pEXO exhibited superior microglia-targeting properties, inducing the increased uptake of lut by microglia. As a result, lut/man-pEXO regulated microglia by inhibiting the activation of detrimental M1 and promoting the transition towards the anti-inflammatory type (M2), thus attenuating ischemic damage of NVU by reducing the infarct area, rescuing the damage of blood-brain barrier (BBB) and preventing inflammatory transformation of astrocytes.

Abstract
In this scholarly review, we conduct a thorough examination of the significant role played by platelet-derived exosomes (Plt-Exos) and hydrogels in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Our detailed investigation highlights the central involvement of Plt-Exos in various physiological and pathological processes, underscoring their potential contributions to diverse areas such as wound healing, neural rejuvenation, and cancer progression. Despite the promising therapeutic aspects, the notable variability in the isolation and characterization of pEVs underscores the need for a more rigorous and standardized methodology. Shifting our focus to hydrogels, they have emerged as promising biomaterials relevant to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Their unique characteristics, especially their chemical and physical adaptability, along with the modifiability of their biochemical properties, make hydrogels a captivating subject. These exceptional features open avenues for numerous tissue engineering applications, facilitating the delivery of essential growth factors, cytokines, and microRNAs. This analysis explores the innovative integration of Plt-Exos with hydrogels, presenting a novel paradigm in tissue engineering. Through the incorporation of Plt-Exos into hydrogels, there exists an opportunity to enhance tissue regeneration endeavors by combining the bioactive features of Plt-Exos with the restorative capabilities of hydrogel frameworks. In conclusion, the cooperative interaction between platelet-derived exosomes and hydrogels indicates a promising path in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Nevertheless, the successful execution of this approach requires a deep understanding of molecular dynamics, coupled with a dedication to refining isolation techniques.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease characterized by progressive cartilage degradation and inflammation. In recent years, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived exosomes (MSCs-Exo) have attracted widespread attention for their potential role in modulating OA pathology. However, the unpredictable therapeutic effects of exosomes have been a significant barrier to their extensive clinical application. In this study, we investigated whether fucoidan-pretreated MSC-derived exosomes (F-MSCs-Exo) could better protect chondrocytes in osteoarthritic joints and elucidate its underlying mechanisms. In order to evaluate the role of F-MSCs-Exo in osteoarthritis, both in vitro and in vivo studies were conducted. MiRNA sequencing was employed to analyze MSCs-Exo and F-MSCs-Exo, enabling the identification of differentially expressed genes and the exploration of the underlying mechanisms behind the protective effects of F-MSCs-Exo in osteoarthritis. Compared to MSCs-Exo, F-MSCs-Exo demonstrated superior effectiveness in inhibiting inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix degradation in rat chondrocytes. Moreover, F-MSCs-Exo exhibited enhanced activation of autophagy in chondrocytes. MiRNA sequencing of both MSCs-Exo and F-MSCs-Exo revealed that miR-146b-5p emerged as a promising candidate mediator for the chondroprotective function of F-MSCs-Exo, with TRAF6 identified as its downstream target. In conclusion, our research results demonstrate that miR-146b-5p encapsulated in F-MSCs-Exo effectively inhibits TRAF6 activation, thereby suppressing inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix degradation, while promoting chondrocyte autophagy for the protection of osteoarthritic cartilage cells. Consequently, the development of a therapeutic approach combining fucoidan with MSC-derived exosomes provides a promising strategy for the clinical treatment of osteoarthritis.

[PMID: 38155954 PMCID: PMC10754527 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1292168] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effects of ovarian injection of autologous platelet rich plasma (aPRP) on patients with poor ovarian responder (POR) based on the existing clinical evidence. Methods According to systematic review and meta-analysis, we comprehensively searched nine databases established as of September 6, 2023, and evaluated the impact of ovarian PRP infusion on poor ovarian responder. The research results include serum follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH) and anti-Mullerian hormone(AMH) levels, antral Follicle Count(AFC), oocyte number, and embryo number. The Newcastle Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of inclusion in trials. Results Add up to 10 studies consisting of 793 participants were included in the meta-analysis. A review of existing evidence showed that intraovarian injection of PRP has significant therapeutic effects in increasing levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) (SMD=0.44,95% CI [0.07,0.81], p=0.02), antral follicle count (AFC) (MD=1.15,95% CI [0.4,1.90], p=0.003), oocyte count (MD=0.91, 95% CI [0.40, 1.41], p=0.0004), and embryo number (MD=0.78, 95% CI [0.5,1.07], p<0.0001). We compared the relevant data of patients before and after treatment after 2 months of intervention. It can be seen that ovarian injection of PRP treatment for 2 months has better effects in reducing FSH levels, increasing AMH levels, increasing antral follicle count, and increasing the number of oocytes and embryos (p<0.05). When the dose of PRP injected into each ovary was ≥ 4ml, there was also a significant correlation (p<0.05) with improving the number of AFC, oocytes and embryos. Significant heterogeneity existed among the studies. Conclusion The pooled results suggest that intra-ovarian injection of PRP can promote ovarian regeneration and improve the reproductive outcomes of patients with ovarian dysfunction. This therapy may have significant clinical potential in improving sex hormone levels, increasing AFC, oocyte count, and embryo count. However, this findings still requires more rigorous and extensive trials worldwide to determine the value of intra-ovarian injection of PRP in POR patients.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injury is prevalent and has a high disability rate in clinical settings. Current therapeutic methods have not achieved satisfactory efficacy, underscoring the need for novel approaches to nerve restoration that remains an active area of research in neuroscience and regenerative medicine. In this study, we isolated platelet-rich plasma-derived exosomes (PRP-exos) and found that they can significantly enhance the proliferation, migration, and secretion of trophic factors by Schwann cells (SCs). In addition, there were marked changes in transcriptional and expression profiles of SCs, particularly via the upregulation of genes related to biological functions involved in nerve regeneration and repair. In the rat model of sciatic nerve crush injury, ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD) enhanced the efficiency of PRP-exos delivery to the injury site. This approach ensured a high concentration of PRP-exos in the injured nerve and improved the therapeutic outcomes. In conclusion, PRP-exos may promote nerve regeneration and repair, and UTMD may increase the effectiveness of targeted PRP-exos delivery to the injured nerve and enhance the therapeutic effect.

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 chronic, degenerative, and age-related disease. It is characterized by chronic inflammation, progressive articular cartilage destruction, and subchondral bone sclerosis. The current effective treatment for OA is limited. Hydrogel is a kind of unique carrier with well-known biocompatibility, softness, and high water content among various biomaterials. Hydrogels are developed for different biomedical applications, for instance, drug delivery, and tissue engineering. To date, a variety of hydrogels-based therapies have been used in OA patients or animal models. In this review, we comprehensively summarized the potential role of hydrogels in chondrocytes proliferation, apoptosis, and inflammatory component production and discussed the impact of hydrogels on OA development. The collection of this information will help better understand the present progress of hydrogels in OA.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been widely used in clinical practice. The mechanism by which PRP promotes tissue repair lies in the release of multiple growth factors upon platelet activation, which accelerates the proliferation and differentiation of repair cells and the synthesis of extracellular matrix. In recent years, as extracellular vesicles (EVs) research has increased and intensified, it has been found that EVs also play an important role in tissue repair. This article provides a comprehensive review of the role of PRP and PRP-derived extracellular vesicles (PRP-EVs) in tissue repair. It discusses the biological characteristics, extraction, identification, activation, and preservation of PRP-EVs. It also reviews their applications in orthopedics and wound repair. The article highlights the importance of PRP-EVs in modern medicine and suggests that they could be a promising natural nanocarrier.

Abstract
Diabetic non-healing wounds are bringing a heavy burden on patients and society. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been widely applied in tissue regenerating for containing various growth factors. Recently, PRP-derived exosomes (PRP-Exos) have been proved to be more effective than PRP in tissue regeneration. However, few studies have investigated the therapeutic potential of PRP-Exos in diabetic wound healing to date. Therefore, we extracted and identified exosomes derived from PRP and tested its promoting effect on diabetic wound healing in vivo and in vitro. We found that high glucose (HG) inhibited cell proliferation and migration and induced apoptosis through ROS-dependent activation of the JNK and p38 MAPK signaling pathways. PRP-Exos can stimulate fibroblast functions and accelerate diabetic wound healing. The benefits of PRP-Exos may be attributed to its capability to prevent HG-induced ROS-dependent apoptosis via the PDGF-BB/JAK2/STAT3/Bcl-2 signaling pathway. This illustrates the therapeutic potential of PRP-Exos in diabetic wounds.

Abstract
OA is the most common joint disease that affects approximately 7% of the global population. Current treatment methods mainly relieve its symptoms with limited repairing effect on joint destructions, which ultimately contributes to the high morbidity rate of OA. Stem cell treatment is a potential regenerative medical therapy for joint repair in OA, but the uncertainty in differentiation direction and immunogenicity limits its clinical usage. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), the by-products secreted by stem cells, show similar efficacy levels but have safer regenerative repair effect without potential adverse outcomes, and have recently drawn attention from the broader research community. A series of research works and reviews have been performed in the last decade, providing references for the application of various exogenous therapeutic sEVs for treating OA. However, the clinical potential of target intervention involving endogenous pathogenic sEVs in the treatment of OA is still under-explored and under-discussed. In this review, and for the first time, we emphasize the dual role of sEVs in OA and explain the effects of sEVs on various joint tissues from both the pathogenic and therapeutic aspects. Our aim is to provide a reference for future research in the field.

Abstract
The incidence of rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis and injuries to articular cartilage that lead to osteochondral defects is predicted to rise as a result of population ageing and the increase in high-intensity physical activities among young and middle-aged people. Current treatments focus on the management of pain and joint functionality to improve the patient's quality of life, but curative strategies are greatly desired. In the past two decades, the therapeutic value of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) has been evaluated because of their regenerative potential, which is mainly attributed to the secretion of paracrine factors. Many of these factors are enclosed in extracellular vesicles (EVs) that reproduce the main functions of parental cells. MSC-derived EVs have anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic as well as pro-regenerative activities. Research on EVs has gained considerable attention as they are a potential cell-free therapy with lower immunogenicity and easier management than whole cells. MSC-derived EVs can rescue the pathogenetic phenotypes of chondrocytes and exert a protective effect in animal models of rheumatic disease. To facilitate the therapeutic use of EVs, appropriate cell sources for the production of EVs with the desired biological effects in each disease should be identified. Production and isolation of EVs should be optimized, and pre-isolation and post-isolation modifications should be considered to maximize the disease-modifying potential of the EVs.

Abstract
Inflammatory diseases are common pathological processes caused by various acute and chronic factors, and some of them are autoimmune diseases. Exosomes are fundamental extracellular vesicles secreted by almost all cells, which contain a series of constituents, i.e., cytoskeletal and cytosolic proteins (actin, tubulin, and histones), nucleic acids (mRNA, miRNA, and DNA), lipids (diacylglycerophosphates, cholesterol, sphingomyelin, and ceramide), and other bioactive components (cytokines, signal transduction proteins, enzymes, antigen presentation and membrane transport/fusion molecules, and adhesion molecules). This review will be a synopsis of the knowledge on the contribution of exosomes from different cell sources as possible therapeutic agents against inflammation, focusing on several inflammatory diseases, neurological diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, intestinal bowel disease, asthma, and liver and kidney injuries. Current knowledge indicates that the role of exosomes in the therapy of inflammation and in inflammatory diseases could be distinctive. The main limitations to their clinical translation are still production, isolation, and storage. Additionally, there is an urgent need to personalize the treatments in terms of the selection of exosomes; their dosages and routes of administration; and a deeper knowledge about their biodistribution, type and incidence of adverse events, and long-term effects of exosomes. In conclusion, exosomes can be a very promising next-generation therapeutic option, superior to synthetic nanocarriers and cell therapy, and can represent a new strategy of effective, safe, versatile, and selective delivery systems in the future.

Abstract
Exosomes, remarkable extracellular vesicles, have emerged as an advanced frontier in intercellular communication. This remarkable capacity positions them as promising contenders in drug delivery systems (DDSs) for osteoarthritis (OA) therapy, capitalizing on their inherent biocompatibility, stability, and minimal immunogenicity. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the emerging developments surrounding exosome-based DDSs for OA therapy. Focusing on exosome origins, we meticulously explore the diverse sources contributing to their production, including invaluable stem cells, immune cells, and an array of other cell types. In addition, we unravel the underlying mechanisms of action that govern these exosome-borne therapeutics, illuminating the intricate interplay between exosomes and recipient cells. In summary, this review highlights the present challenges that permeate exosome-based DDSs for OA therapy. Through an in-depth exploration of the intricacies within this emerging field, this review aims to shed light on the future direction of exosome-based DDSs in OA. It serves as a bridge for fostering collaboration and collective efforts in reshaping the treatment landscape of OA.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is a dynamic process that involves angiogenesis and the balance of osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. In bone tissue engineering, the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is a promising approach to restore bone homeostasis. MSCs, particularly their small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), exert therapeutic effects due to their paracrine capability. Increasing evidence indicates that microRNAs (miRNAs) delivered by sEVs from MSCs (MSCs-sEVs) can alter gene expression in recipient cells and enhance bone regeneration. As an ideal delivery vehicle of miRNAs, MSCs-sEVs combine the high bioavailability and stability of sEVs with osteogenic ability of miRNAs, which can effectively overcome the challenge of low delivery efficiency in miRNA therapy. In this review, we focus on the recent advancements in the use of miRNAs delivered by MSCs-sEVs for bone regeneration and disorders. Additionally, we summarize the changes in miRNA expression in osteogenic-related MSCs-sEVs under different microenvironments.

Abstract
The use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has gained increasing interest in recent decades. The platelet secretome contains a multitude of growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and other biological biomolecules. In recent years, developments in the field of platelets have led to new insights, and attention has been focused on the platelets' released extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their role in intercellular communication. In this context, the aim of this review was to compile the current evidence on PRP-derived extracellular vesicles to identify the advantages and limitations fortheir use in the upcoming clinical applications. A total of 172 articles were identified during the systematic literature search through two databases (PubMed and Web of Science). Twenty publications met the inclusion criteria and were included in this review. According to the results, the use of PRP-EVs in the clinic is an emerging field of great interest that represents a promising therapeutic option, as their efficacy has been demonstrated in the majority of fields of applications included in this review. However, the lack of standardization along the procedures in both the field of PRP and the EVs makes it extremely challenging to compare results among studies. Establishing standardized conditions to ensure optimized and detailed protocols and define parameters such as the dose or the EV origin is therefore urgent. Further studies to elucidate the real contribution of EVs to PRP in terms of composition and functionality should also be performed. Nevertheless, research on the field provides promising results and a novel basis to deal with the regenerative medicine and drug delivery fields in the future.

Animals (Basel) 2023; 13:2646. [PMID: 37627437 PMCID: PMC10451943 DOI: 10.3390/ani13162646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Swainsonine-containing plants contain swainsonine which has been shown to cause neurological signs and pathological changes in farm animals. It causes a large number of livestock poisonings every year resulting in economic losses to the livestock industry. At present, "Jifang E" is used in the prevention of swainsonine-containing plants poisoning livestock, and the preventive effects have been well-documented. However, "Jifang E" is typically administered in drinking water, making it difficult to control the administered dosage, because of feeding difficulties and it may cause certain side effects that are unique to the water-dissolved powder. To overcome these difficulties, we developed a temperature-sensitive gel for injection and the optimal ratio of each formula of sustained-release injection is P407 (24%), P188 (6%), Vitamin C (1%), PEG4000 (0.5%), and "Jifang E" (10%). Our results suggest that novel formulation makes the micellar system more stable and the particles are uniformly dispersed. Colloidal morphological studies showed that each group formed a homogeneous pore structure after gelling, and the structure became more dense with the addition of "Jifang E". The rheological study shows that "Jifang E" is a pseudoplastic fluid, and the addition of "Jifang E" reduces the viscosity of the formula, which is beneficial to the injection. In vitro and in vivo release rate studies have shown that the effective concentration of "Jifang E" can be maintained for 3 to 5 days. The acute toxicity test in SPF Kunming mice showed that its LD50 was 828.323 mg/kg, with confidence limits of 676.706-1013.911 mg/kg, which is a safe dosage (LD50 > 200 mg/kg). There were no observed reactions of muscle irritation or subcutaneous tissue irritation with the dosage used for New Zealand rabbits. In summary, we successfully developed the sustained-release injection formulation of "Jifang E" for the prevention of swainsonine-containing plants poisoning livestock, which provides the basis for subsequent field extension trials and the further study of its detoxification mechanism.

[PMID: 37244117 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early diagnosis of immune-related hearing loss and timely treatment can prevent structural damage to the inner ear and contribute to hearing retention. Exosomal miRNAs, lncRNAs and proteins have great prospects as novel biomarkers for clinical diagnosis. Our study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of exosomes or exosomal ceRNA regulatory networks in immune-related hearing loss. METHODS An immune-related hearing loss mice model was constructed by injection with inner ear antigen, and then the blood plasma samples of the mice were collected for exosomes isolation by ultra-centrifugation. Subsequently, the different exosomes were sent for whole transcriptome sequencing using Illumina platform. Finally, a ceRNA pair was chosen for validation by RT-qPCR and dual luciferase reporter gene assay. RESULTS The exosomes were successfully extracted from the blood samples of the control and the immune-related hearing loss mice. After sequencing, 94 differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs, 612 DEmRNAs, and 100 DEmiRNAs were found in the immune-related hearing loss-associated exosomes. Afterwards, ceRNA regulatory networks consisting of 74 lncRNAs, 28 miRNAs and 256 mRNAs were proposed, and the genes in the ceRNA regulatory networks were significantly enriched in 34 GO terms of biological processes and 9 KEGG pathways. Finally, Gm9866 and Dusp7 were significantly up-regulated, while miR-185-5p level was declined in the exosomes from immune-related hearing loss, and Gm9866, miR-185-5p and Dusp7 interacted with each other. CONCLUSIONS Gm9866-miR-185-5p-Dusp7 was confirmed to be closely correlated with the occurrence and progression of immune-related hearing loss.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate derived from PRP-Exos promotes angiogenesis in diabetic wound healing via the S1PR1/AKT/FN1 signalling pathway. BURNS & TRAUMA 2023; 11:tkad003. [PMID: 37251708 PMCID: PMC10208895 DOI: 10.1093/burnst/tkad003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2022] [Revised: 11/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
Background Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a key regulator of vascular homeostasis and angiogenesis, is enriched in exosomes derived from platelet-rich plasma (PRP-Exos). However, the potential role of PRP-Exos-S1P in diabetic wound healing remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the underlying mechanism of PRP-Exos-S1P in diabetic angiogenesis and wound repair. Methods Exosomes were isolated from PRP by ultracentrifugation and analysed by transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis and western blotting. The concentration of S1P derived from PRP-Exos was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression level of S1P receptor1-3 (S1PR1-3) in diabetic skin was analysed by Q-PCR. Bioinformatics analysis and proteomic sequencing were conducted to explore the possible signalling pathway mediated by PRP-Exos-S1P. A diabetic mouse model was used to evaluate the effect of PRP-Exos on wound healing. Immunofluorescence for cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31) was used to assess angiogenesis in a diabetic wound model. Results In vitro, PRP-Exos significantly promoted cell proliferation, migration and tube formation. Furthermore, PRP-Exos accelerated the process of diabetic angiogenesis and wound closure in vivo. S1P derived from PRP-Exos was present at a high level, and S1PR1 expression was significantly elevated compared with S1PR2 and S1PR3 in the skin of diabetic patients and animals. However, cell migration and tube formation were not promoted by PRP-Exos-S1P in human umbilical vein endothelial cells treated with shS1PR1. In the diabetic mouse model, inhibition of S1PR1 expression at wounding sites decreased the formation of new blood vessels and delayed the process of wound closure. Bioinformatics analysis and proteomics indicated that fibronectin 1 (FN1) was closely related to S1PR1 due to its colocalization in the endothelial cells of human skin. Further study supported that FN1 plays an important role in the PRP-Exos-S1P-mediated S1PR1/protein kinase B signalling pathway. Conclusions PRP-Exos-S1P promotes angiogenesis in diabetic wound healing via the S1PR1/protein kinase B/FN1 signalling pathway. Our findings provide a preliminary theoretical foundation for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers using PRP-Exos in the future.

Abstract
With the development of nanotechnology, nanomaterials are widely applied in different areas. Some nanomaterials are designed to be biocompatible and can be used in the medical field, playing an important role in disease treatment. Exosomes are nanoscale vesicles with a diameter of 30-200 nm. Studies have shown that exosomes have the effect of angiogenesis, tissue (skin, tendon, cartilage, et al.) repair and reconstruction. Nano-hydrogels are hydrogels with a diameter of 200 nm or less and can be used as the carrier to transport the exosomes into the body. Some orthopedic diseases, such as bone defects and bone infections, are difficult to handle. The emergence of nano-hydrogels coated exosomes may provide a new idea to solve these problems, improving the prognosis of patients. This review summarizes the function of nano-hydrogels coated exosomes in bone tissue repair, intending to illustrate the potential use and application of nano-hydrogels coated exosomes in bone disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug treatment is one of the main ways of coping with disease today. For the disadvantages of drug management, thermosensitive hydrogel is used as a countermeasure, which can realize the simple sustained release of drugs and the controlled release of drugs in complex physiological environments. AREAS COVERED This paper talks about thermosensitive hydrogels that can be used as drug carriers. The common preparation materials, material forms, thermal response mechanisms, characteristics of thermosensitive hydrogels for drug release and main disease treatment applications are reviewed. EXPERT OPINION When thermosensitive hydrogels are used as drug loading and delivery platforms, desired drug release patterns and release profiles can be tailored by selecting raw materials, thermal response mechanisms, and material forms. The properties of hydrogels prepared from synthetic polymers will be more stable than natural polymers. Integrating multiple thermosensitive mechanisms or different kinds of thermosensitive mechanisms on the same hydrogel is expected to realize the spatiotemporal differential delivery of multiple drugs under temperature stimulation. The industrial transformation of thermosensitive hydrogels as drug delivery platforms needs to meet some important conditions.

Abstract
Exosomes isolated from platelet-rich plasma (PRP-exos) have been recently deemed as an optimized therapeutic strategy in Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) treatment. Herein, we aimed to explore whether MALAT1 participates in DFU wound healing by PRP-exos treatment and the related preliminary mechanism. Fibroblasts were isolated from healthy donors and DFU patients, and the expression of MALAT1, miR-374a-3p and DNMT3A were detected by RT-PCR. The effect of MALAT1 and miR-374a-3p on DFU fibroblast function was verified by gain/loss of function experiment. The targeted binding of MALAT and miRNA was verified by double luciferase reporter gene assay. PRP-exos were isolated from normal human blood and characterized, and then co-cultured with DFU fibroblasts. The MALAT1 expression was donwregulated while the miR-374a-5p expression was upregulated in DFU fibroblasts. Double luciferase reporter gene assay demonstrated the targeted binding of MALAT and miR-374a-5p. Overexpression of MALAT1 or knockdown of miR-374a-5p could increase viability and inhibit apoptosis and pyroptosis of DFU fibroblast. And overexpression of miR-374a-5p reversed the effect of PRR-exos or MALAT1 overexpression on cell viability, apoptosis and pyroptosis. Collectively, MALAT1 mediated signal axis participates in the role of PRP-exos in promoting DFU wound healing, which may help identify optimal targets and effective therapies for DFU treatment.

A multifunctional hydrogel loaded with two nanoagents improves the pathological microenvironment associated with radiation combined with skin wounds. Acta Biomater 2023; 159:111-127. [PMID: 36736645 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.01.052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2022] [Revised: 01/02/2023] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Persistent oxidative stress and recurring waves of inflammation with excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radical accumulation could be generated by radiation. Exposure to radiation in combination with physical injuries such as wound trauma would produce a more harmful set of medical complications, which was known as radiation combined with skin wounds (RCSWs). However, little attention has been given to RCSW research despite the unsatisfactory therapeutic outcomes. In this study, a dual-nanoagent-loaded multifunctional hydrogel was fabricated to ameliorate the pathological microenvironment associated with RCSWs. The injectable, adhesive, and self-healing hydrogel was prepared by crosslinking carbohydrazide-modified gelatin (Gel-CDH) and oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA) through the Schiff-base reaction under mild condition. Polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-NPs) and mesenchymal stem cell-secreted small extracellular vesicles (MSC-sEV) were loaded to relieve radiation-produced tissue inflammation and oxidation impairment and enhance cell vitality and angiogenesis individually or jointly. The proposed PDA-NPs@MSC-sEV hydrogel enhanced cell vitality, as shown by cell proliferation, migration, colony formation, and cell cycle and apoptosis assays in vitro, and promoted reepithelization by attenuating microenvironment pathology in vivo. Notably, a gene set enrichment analysis of proteomic data revealed significant enrichment with adipogenic and hypoxic pathways, which play prominent roles in wound repair. Specifically, target genes were predicted based on differential transcription factor expression. The results suggested that MSC-sEV- and PDA-NP-loaded multifunctional hydrogels may be promising nanotherapies for RCSWs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The small extracellular vesicle (sEV) has distinct advantages compared with MSCs, and polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-NPs), known as the biological materials with good cell affinity and histocompatibility which have been reported to scavenge ROS free radicals. In this study, an adhesive, injectable, self-healing, antibacterial, ROS scavenging and amelioration of the radiation related microenvironment hydrogel encapsulating nanoscale particles of MSC-sEV and PDA-NPs (PDA-NPs@MSC-sEV hydrogel) was synthesized for promoting radiation combined with skin wounds (RCSWs). GSEA analysis profiled by proteomics data revealed significant enrichments in the regulations of adipogenic and hypoxic pathways with this multi-functional hydrogel. This is the first report of combining this two promising nanoscale agents for the special skin wounds associated with radiation.

Abstract
The burden of osteoarthritis (OA), one of the major causes of functional disabilities in humans and animals, continues to increase worldwide while no disease-modifying OA drugs (DMOADs) that either slow down or reverse disease progression have been made available. Here, we provide a brief overview of recent advances in: designing new OA drug delivery approaches, focusing on lubrication-based biomaterials and drug delivery systems, such as hydrogels, liposomes, dendrimers, micro- and nanoparticles; using either large (horse) or small (zebrafish) relevant animal models to evaluate new therapeutic strategies; and OA in vitro modeling, focusing on 3D (organoid) models of cartilage regarding the Replace, Reduce and Refine (3R) principle of animal experimentation.

Rejuvenation of tendon stem/progenitor cells for functional tendon regeneration through platelet-derived exosomes loaded with recombinant Yap1. Acta Biomater 2023; 161:80-99.

Abstract
The regenerative capabilities including self-renewal, migration and differentiation potentials shift from the embryonic phase to the mature period of endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) characterize restricted functions and disabilities following tendon injuries. Recent studies have shown that tendon regeneration and repair rely on multiple specific transcription factors to maintain TSPCs characteristics and functions. Here, we demonstrate Yap, a Hippo pathway downstream effector, is associated with TSPCs phenotype and regenerative potentials through gene expression analysis of tendon development and repair process. Exosomes have been proven an efficient transport platform for drug delivery. In this study, purified exosomes derived from donor platelets are loaded with recombinant Yap1 protein (PLT-Exo-Yap1) via electroporation to promote the stemness and differentiation potentials of TSPCs in vitro. Programmed TSPCs with Yap1 import maintain stemness and functions after long-term passage in vitro. The increased oxidative stress levels of TSPCs are related to the phenotype changes in duplicative senescent processes. The results show that treatment with PLT-Exo-Yap1 significantly protects TSPCs against oxidative stressor-induced stemness loss and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) through the NF-κB signaling pathway. In addition, we fabricate an Exos-Yap1-functioned GelMA hydrogel with a parallel-aligned substrate structure to enhance TSPCs adhesion, promote cell stemness and force regenerative cells toward the tendon lineage for in vitro and in vivo tendon regeneration. The application of Exos-Yap1 functioned implant assists new tendon-like tissue formation with good mechanical properties and locomotor functions in a full-cut Achilles tendon defect model. Thus, PLT-Exo-Yap1-functionalized GelMA promotes the rejuvenation of TSPCs to facilitate functional tendon regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This is the first study to explore that the hippo pathway downstream effector Yap is involved in tendon aging and repair processes, and is associated with the regenerative capabilities of TSPCs. In this syudy, Platelet-derived exosomes (PLT-Exos) act as an appropriate carrier platform for the delivery of recombinant Yap1 into TSPCs to regulate Yap activity. Effective Yap1 delivery inhibit oxidative stress-induced senescence associated phenotype of TSPCs by blocking ROS-mediated NF-κb signaling pathway activation. This study emphasizes that combined application of biomimetic scaffolds and Yap1 loaded PLT-Exos can provide structural support and promote rejuvenation of resident cells to assist functional regeneration for Achilles tendon defect, and has the prospect of clinical setting.

Abstract
Introduction Fractures of long bones unite without any complication except for 2%-10% which may lead to delayed or non-union of the fracture. Management of delayed union of fractures poses a great challenge for orthopaedic surgeons. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood-derived biological agent, which delivers growth factors, cytokines, and bio-micro molecules at supraphysiologic concentrations at the site of tissue injury, thus potentiating the body's healing efforts. Various studies and research have proved the osteogenic activity of PRP. The growth factors present in the PRP induce the locally available resilient progenitor or stem cells and convert the atrophic environment into a trophic environment. Materials and methods We investigated the safety and efficacy of autologous PRP injection in the delayed union of long bone fractures. A total of 25 cases of delayed union of long bone fractures were augmented with 3 doses of autologous PRP at 3 weekly intervals and were followed up for 12 months. All the cases were documented with pre-and post-procedural and 12th -month visual analog score (VAS) and Warden's score. Results Out of 25 cases, 21 (84.00%) cases showed good union of fracture with adequate callus formation by 10-12 weeks with 3 doses of autologous PRP injections. The mean pre-procedural VAS and Warden's score at the final follow-up showed statistically significant results (p < 0.05). No other complications were noted due to autologous PRP application among the study participants during the study period except for 3 cases (2 cases of non-union, and 1 case of implant failure). Conclusion Results of the current study suggest that autologous injection of PRP might be a safe and effective therapeutic tool for the management of delayed union of long bone fractures.

Abstract
Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) is a debilitating degenerative disease with high incidence, deteriorating quality of patient life. Currently, due to ambiguous etiology, the traditional clinical strategies of TMJOA emphasize on symptomatic treatments such as pain relief and inflammation alleviation, which are unable to halt or reverse the destruction of cartilage or subchondral bone. A number of studies have suggested the potential application prospect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-based therapy in TMJOA and other cartilage injury. Worthy of note, exosomes are increasingly being considered the principal efficacious agent of MSC secretions for TMJOA management. The extensive study of exosomes (derived from MSCs, synoviocytes, chondrocytes or adipose tissue et al.) on arthritis recently, has indicated exosomes and their specific miRNA components to be potential therapeutic agents for TMJOA. In this review, we aim to systematically summarize therapeutic properties and underlying mechanisms of MSCs and exosomes from different sources in TMJOA, also analyze and discuss the approaches to optimization, challenges, and prospects of exosome-based therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a highly prevalent whole-joint disease that causes disability and pain and affects a patient's quality of life. However, currently, there is a lack of effective early diagnosis and treatment. Although stem cells can promote cartilage repair and treat OA, problems such as immune rejection and tumorigenicity persist. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) can transmit genetic information from donor cells and mediate intercellular communication, which is considered a functional paracrine factor of stem cells. Increasing evidences suggest that EVs may play an essential and complex role in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of OA. Here, we introduced the role of EVs in OA progression by influencing inflammation, metabolism, and aging. Next, we discussed EVs from the blood, synovial fluid, and joint-related cells for diagnosis. Moreover, we outlined the potential of modified and unmodified EVs and their combination with biomaterials for OA therapy. Finally, we discuss the deficiencies and put forward the prospects and challenges related to the application of EVs in the field of OA.
