Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid enveloped nanoparticles that are naturally produced by cells and function in the intercellular transfer of biological material such as proteins, RNAs and metabolites. They have been shown to act in an autocrine and paracrine manner to alter the functions of local and distant recipient cells, with a growing body of evidence highlighting their wide-ranging functions in regenerative processes such as stem cell maintenance, tissue repair and immune modulation. EVs offer several potential advantages over stem cell therapies such as improved safety profiles, scalability, and enhanced storage and quality control of the final product. In fact, many of the pro-regenerative outcomes of stem cell therapies have been attributed to the release of mesenchymal stem cell-derived EVs (MSC-EVs) and their potent effects on extracellular matrix turnover, local cell recruitment, proliferation and angiogenesis is now well described. These positive outcomes have led to clinical trials assessing the safety of MSC-EVs for applications in wound healing and the treatment of cutaneous ulcers, as well as the emergence of multiple commercial MSC-EV sources marketed for topical application in cosmetic medicine. However, regenerative EV therapeutics remain in their infancy and pertinent questions regarding product standardisation, potency and the regulatory landscape surrounding the development of these promising nano-therapeutics must be addressed to ensure safe and effective clinical adoption. In this article we provide an overview of the emerging landscape of MSC-EVs in regenerative dermatology and cosmetic science, highlighting the underlying biological mechanisms pertinent to their application and providing a perspective on current safety considerations, regulation and future directions in the field.

Effect of A. polygama APEE (Actinidia polygama ethanol extract) or APWE (Actinidia polygama water extract) on wrinkle formation in UVB-irradiated hairless mice. J Cosmet Dermatol 2023; 22:311-319. [PMID: 35302698 DOI: 10.1111/jocd.14925] [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: 11/11/2021] [Revised: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Actinidia polygama (silver vine) is considered a medical plant which has been used in oriental medicine. It has been used for the treatment of pain, gout, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammation. Few studies reported on the effect of Actinidia polygama (silver vine) on skin photoaging. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the anti-photoaging effect of the ethanol and water extracts of A. polygama (APEE and APWE, respectively) in UVB-irradiated hairless mice. METHODS SKH-1 hairless mice were exposed to UVB irradiation (30-60 mJ/cm2 ), following orally APEE or APWE oral administration for 10 weeks. We examined the effect on winkle improvement by a measuring Fullscope, PRIMOS, Craniometer, and Cutometer. Furthermore, we analyzed histological changes in mouse dorsal skin through hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson's trichrome (MT) staining. The expression of matrix metalloproteinase (1, 3, and 9) was analyzed by immunoblotting. RESULTS Oral administration of APEE or APWE at 100 or 200 mg/kg in UVB-irradiated mice alleviated the symptoms of skin aging, such as wrinkling, epidermal hyperplasia, and water loss. In addition, the APEE or APWE oral administration increased skin elasticity by enhancing the production of type I collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid synthase and downregulating matrix metalloproteinase (1, 3, and 9) expression. CONCLUSION Based on results for our study, APEE or APWE could protect the UVB-mediated skin wrinkle and is new target for the developing anti-wrinkle cosmetics.

Small extracellular vesicles derived from dermal fibroblasts promote fibroblast activity and skin development through carrying miR-218 and ITGBL1. J Nanobiotechnology 2022; 20:296.

Abstract
Skin thickness is closely related to the appearance of human skin, such as sagging and wrinkling, which primarily depends on the level of collagen I synthesized by dermal fibroblasts (DFs). Small extracellular vesicles (SEVs), especially those derived from human DFs (HDFs), are crucial orchestrators in shaping physiological and pathological development of skin. However, the limited supply of human skin prevents the production of a large amount of HDFs-SEVs, and pig skin is used as a model of human skin. In this study, SEVs derived from DFs of Chenghua pigs (CH-SEVs), considered to have superior skin thickness, and Large White pigs (LW-SEVs) were collected to compare their effects on DFs and skin tissue. Our results showed that, compared with LW-SEVs, CH-SEVs more effectively promoted fibroblast proliferation, migration, collagen synthesis and contraction; in addition, in mouse model injected with both SEVs, compared with LW-SEVs, CH-SEVs increased the skin thickness and collagen I content more effectively. Some differentially expressed miRNAs and proteins were found between CH-SEVs and LW-SEVs by small RNA-seq and LC-MS/MS analysis. Interestingly, we identified that CH-SEVs were enriched in miRNA-218 and ITGBL1 protein, which played important roles in promoting fibroblast activity via activation of the downstream TGFβ1-SMAD2/3 pathway in vitro. Furthermore, overexpression of miRNA-218 and ITGBL1 protein increased the thickness and collagen I content of mouse skin in vivo. These results indicate that CH-SEVs can effectively stimulate fibroblast activity and promote skin development and thus have the potential to protect against and repair skin damage.

Abstract
Background Acute inflammatory reactions (AIRs) are a rare complication following esthetic treatment with hyaluronic acid (HA) and/or human collagen fillers. However, a substantial increase in the frequency of AIRs was observed in the first author's clinic since May 2020. Aims To report AIR cases, we experienced and discuss potential underlying mechanisms. Methods This was a retrospective review of patients representing AIR symptoms following filler injection with HA or human collagen in our clinic. Results Although only one case of an AIR with an incidence rate of 0.01% was recorded following filler treatment between September 2008 and April 2020 in our clinic, we observed 14 AIR cases without anaphylaxis, with an incidence rate of 1.18% between May 2020 and June 2021, in line with the spreading of the new coronavirus pandemic. All cases were females aged 40–57 years, and the time of onset was within hours after filler injection. Three patients had been treated with HA fillers only, 2 with HA plus human collagen, and 9 with human collagen only. Most patients had been treated with these products in the past. Nine patients were treated with oral prednisolone. In all cases, symptoms resolved entirely within a week without sequelae. Conclusions The marked increase in AIRs coincided with the COVID‐19 pandemic. Possible explanations include immune system alterations caused by extensive changes in domestic and personal hygiene, prolonged and elevated stress levels, and subclinical COVID‐19 infection. Further studies may be warranted.

Abstract
Human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), the main cell population of the dermis, gradually lose their ability to produce collagen and renew intercellular matrix with aging. One clinical application for the autologous trans-dermis injection of HDFs that has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration aims to refine facial contours and slow down skin aging. However, the autologous HDFs used vary in quality according to the state of patients and due to many passages they undergo during expansion. In this study, factors and exosomes derived from three-dimensional spheroids (3D HDF-XOs) and the monolayer culture of HDFs (2D HDF-XOs) were collected and compared. 3D HDF-XOs expressed a significantly higher level of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) and differentially expressed miRNA cargos compared with 2D HDF-XOs. Next, the efficacy of 3D HDF-XOs in inducing collagen synthesis and antiaging was demonstrated in vitro and in a nude mouse photoaging model. A needle-free injector was used to administer exosome treatments. 3D HDF-XOs caused increased procollagen type I expression and a significant decrease in MMP-1 expression, mainly through the downregulation of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and the upregulation of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β). In addition, the 3D-HDF-XOs group showed a higher level of dermal collagen deposition than bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes. These results indicate that exosomes from 3D cultured HDF spheroids have anti-skin-aging properties and the potential to prevent and treat cutaneous aging.
