Challenges and opportunities for cancer stem cell-targeted immunotherapies include immune checkpoint inhibitor, cancer stem cell-dendritic cell vaccine, chimeric antigen receptor immune cells, and modified exosomes. J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2024; 38:e23719. [PMID: 38764138 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.23719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are associated with the tumor microenvironment (TME). CSCs induce tumorigenesis, tumor recurrence and progression, and resistance to standard therapies. Indeed, CSCs pose an increasing challenge to current cancer therapy due to their stemness or self-renewal properties. The molecular and cellular interactions between heterogeneous CSCs and surrounding TME components and tumor-supporting immune cells show synergistic effects toward treatment failure. In the immunosuppressive TME, CSCs express various immunoregulatory proteins, growth factors, metabolites and cytokines, and also produce exosomes, a type of extracellular vesicles, to protect themselves from host immune surveillance. Among these, the identification and application of CSC-derived exosomes could be considered for the development of therapeutic approaches to eliminate CSCs or cancer, in addition to targeting the modulators that remodel the composition of the TME, as reviewed in this study. Here, we introduce the role of CSCs and how their interaction with TME complicates immunotherapies, and then present the CSC-based immunotherapy and the limitation of these therapies. We describe the biology and role of tumor/CSC-derived exosomes that induce immune suppression in the TME, and finally, introduce their potentials for the development of CSC-based targeted immunotherapy in the future.

Food Chem 2024; 438:137963. [PMID: 37976878 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137963] [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: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
The growing recognition of luteolin (Lu) as a vital functional component is attributed to its notable bioactive properties. However, the effective use of Lu is hindered by its inherent limitations related to water solubility, stability, and bioavailability. Here, we aim to develop sesame leaves-derived exosome-like nanovesicles (Exo) for Lu delivery (Exo@Lu) as vehicles. The encapsulation mechanism, solubility, stability, and bioactivity of Exo@Lu were thoroughly evaluated. Exo enriched abundant lipids, proteins, and phenolic compounds with an encapsulation efficiency of ∼ 91.9 % and a loading capacity of ∼ 20.5 % for Lu. The primary binding forces responsible for the encapsulation were hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. After encapsulation, the water solubility and stability of Lu were significantly improved under various conditions, including thermal, light, storage, ionic strength, and pH. Exo@Lu maintained structural integrity during simulated digestion, enhancing bioaccessibility and efficacy in mitigating oxidative stress and inflammatory response compared to Exo and free Lu.

Mesoporous bioactive glass scaffolds for the delivery of bone marrow stem cell-derived osteoinductive extracellular vesicles lncRNA promote senescent bone defect repair by targeting the miR-1843a-5p/Mob3a/YAP axis. Acta Biomater 2024; 177:486-505. [PMID: 38311197 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.01.044] [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: 11/05/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
Bone repair in elderly patients poses a huge challenge due to the age-related progressive decline in regenerative abilities attributed to the senescence of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs). Bioactive scaffolds have been applied in bone regeneration due to their various biological functions. In this study, we aimed to fabricate functionalized bioactive scaffolds through loading osteoinductive extracellular vesicles (OI-EVs) based on mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) scaffolds (1010 particles/scaffold) and to investigate its effects on osteogenesis and senescence of BMSCs. The results suggested that OI-EVs upregulate the proliferative and osteogenic capacities of senescent BMSCs. More importantly, The results showed that loading OI-EVs into MBG scaffolds achieved better bone regeneration. Furthermore, OI-EVs and BMSCs RNAs bioinformatics analysis indicated that OI-EVs play roles through transporting pivotal lncRNA acting as a "sponge" to compete with Mob3a for miR-1843a-5p to promote YAP dephosphorylation and nuclear translocation, ultimately resulting in elevated proliferation and osteogenic differentiation and reduced senescence-related phenotypes. Collectively, these results suggested that the OI-EVs lncRNA ceRNA regulatory networks might be the key point for senescent osteogenesis. More importantly, the study indicated the feasibility of loading OI-EVs into scaffolds and provided novel insights into biomaterial design for facilitating bone regeneration in the treatment of senescent bone defects. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Constructing OI-EVs/MBG delivering system and verification of its bone regeneration enhancement in senescent defect repair. Aging bone repair poses a huge challenge due to the age-related progressive degenerative decline in regenerative abilities attributed to the senescence of BMSCs. OI-EVs/MBG delivering system were expected as promising treatment for senescent bone repair, which could provide an effective strategy for bone regeneration in elderly patients. Clarification of potential OI-EVs lncRNA ceRNA regulatory mechanism in senescent bone regeneration OI-EVs play important roles through transferring lncRNA-ENSRNOG00000056625 sponging miR-1843a-5p that targeted Mob3a to activate YAP translocation into nucleus, ultimately alleviate senescence, promote proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in O-BMSCs, which provides theoretical basis for EVs-mediated therapy in future clinical works.

Abstract
One of the key objectives of regenerative medicine is the design of skin tissue engineering scaffolds to promote wound healing. These scaffolds provide a fresh viewpoint on skin injury repair by emulating body tissues in their structure. A suitable platform for cellular processes can be provided by natural scaffolds made from decellularized tissues while retaining the primary components. Resveratrol (RES), which has qualities like angiogenesis, antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory, is also useful in the healing of wounds. In this investigation, RES-loaded decellularized sheep pericardium scaffolds were created and tested on full-thickness wounds in a mouse model. According to the in vivo findings, the groups in which the wound was treated with decellularized pericardium (DP) had better wound healing than the control group and showed more production of angiogenic and anti-inflammatory substances. The secretion of these factors was greater in RES-loaded decellularized pericardium (DP-RES) than in the scaffold without RES, and the macroscopic and histological data supported this. Therefore, the use of decellularization scaffolds with substances like RES for the regeneration of skin wounds can be further researched and evaluated in the preclinical stages.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles have emerged as promising tools in regenerative medicine due to their inherent ability to facilitate intercellular communication and modulate cellular functions. These nanosized vesicles transport bioactive molecules, such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which can affect the behavior of recipient cells and promote tissue regeneration. However, the therapeutic application of these vesicles is frequently constrained by their rapid clearance from the body and inability to maintain a sustained presence at the injury site. In order to overcome these obstacles, hydrogels have been used as extracellular vesicle delivery vehicles, providing a localized and controlled release system that improves their therapeutic efficacy. This Review will examine the role of extracellular vesicle-loaded hydrogels in tissue regeneration, discussing potential applications, current challenges, and future directions. We will investigate the origins, composition, and characterization techniques of extracellular vesicles, focusing on recent advances in exosome profiling and the role of machine learning in this field. In addition, we will investigate the properties of hydrogels that make them ideal extracellular vesicle carriers. Recent studies utilizing this combination for tissue regeneration will be highlighted, providing a comprehensive overview of the current research landscape and potential future directions.

Abstract
Almost all cell types, either in vivo or in vitro, create extracellular vesicles (EVs). Among them are exosomes (EXOs), i.e., tiny nanovesicles containing a lipid bilayer, proteins, and RNAs that are actively involved in cellular communication, indicating that they may be exploited as both diagnostics and therapeutics for conditions like cancer. These nanoparticles can also be used as nanocarriers in many types of research to carry agents such as drugs. Plant-derived exosome-like nanoparticles (PENs) are currently under investigation as a substitute for EXOs formed from mammalian cells, allowing researchers to get beyond the technical constraints of mammalian vesicles. Because of their physiological, chemical, and biological properties, PENs have a lot of promise for use as nanocarriers in drug delivery systems that can deliver various dosages, especially when it comes to large-scale repeatability. The present study has looked at the origins and isolation techniques of PENs, their anticancer properties, their usage as nanocarriers in the treatment of different illnesses, and their antioxidant properties. These nanoparticles can aid in the achievement of therapeutic objectives, as they have benign, non-immunogenic side effects and can pass biological barriers. Time-consuming and perhaps damaging PEN separation techniques is used. For the current PEN separation techniques to be used in commercial and therapeutic settings, they must be altered. In this regard, the concurrent application of biological sciences can be beneficial for improving PEN separation techniques. PENs' innate metabolic properties provide them a great deal of promise for application in drug delivery systems. However, there could be a risk to both the loaded medications and the intrinsic bioactive components if these particles are heavily armed with drugs. Therefore, to prevent these side effects, more studies are needed to devise sophisticated drug-loading procedures and to learn more about the physiology of PENs.

Abstract
BANKGROUND The tumor microenvironment (TME) is an internal environment composed of various cells and an extracellular matrix. Cancer stem cell-derived exosomes (CSC-Exos), as essential messengers involved in various tumor processes, are important carriers for bidirectional communication between the tumor microenvironment and tumor cells and play an important role in the tumor microenvironment. Nevertheless, few bibliometric analyses have been systematically studied in this field. METHODS Therefore, we aimed to visualize the research hotspots and trends in this field through bibliometrics to comprehend the future evolution of fundamental and clinical research, as well as to offer insightful information and fresh viewpoints. The Scopus database was used to search the research literature related to exosomes and tumor microenvironments after the establishment of this repository. CiteSpace (version 5.8.R3) and VOSviewer (version 1.6.16) were used for visualization and analysis. RESULTS In this study, a total of 2077 articles and reviews were included, with the number of articles on exosomes and tumor microenvironments significantly increasing yearly. Recent trends showed that the potential value of exosomes as "tumor diagnostics" and "the application prospect of exosomes as therapeutic agents and drug delivery carriers" will receive more attention in the future. CONCLUSIONS We revealed the current status and hotspots of tumor stem cell-derived exosomes and tumor microenvironments globally through bibliometrics. The prospect of the regulatory role of CSC-Exos in TME, the potential value of diagnosis, and the application of drug delivery vectors will all remain cutting-edge research areas in the field of tumor therapy. Meanwhile, this study provided a functional literature analysis for related researchers.

Exosome Derived from Mesenchymal Stem Cells Alleviates Hypertrophic Scar by Inhibiting the Fibroblasts via TNFSF-13/HSPG2 Signaling Pathway. Int J Nanomedicine 2023; 18:7047-7063. [PMID: 38046235 PMCID: PMC10693282 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s433510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/19/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-exo) have been shown to have significant potential in wound healing and scar relief processes. According to reports, TNFSF13 and HSPG2 are associated with various fibrotic diseases. The aim of this study is to investigate how TNFSF13 and HSPG2 affect the formation of hypertrophic scar (HS) and the mechanism by which exosomes regulate HS. Methods Immunohistochemistry, qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunofluorescence were performed to measure TNFSF13 expression in HS skin tissues and hypertrophic scar fibroblast (HSF). HSF were treated with recombinant TNFSF13 protein and TNFSF13 siRNAs to probe the effect of TNFSF13 on the activity of HSF. The CCK-8, EdU, Transwell, and Western blot were used to investigate the role of TNFSF13 in viability, proliferation and inflammation. The influence of MSC-exo on the proliferation and function of HSF was determined by scratch and Western blot. Results TNFSF13 was dramatically up-regulated in HS skin tissues and HSF. Recombinant TNFSF13 protein increased cell viability, proliferation, migration, fibrosis, inflammation, and the binding between TNFSF13 and HSPG2 of HSF. The opposite results were obtained in TNFSF13 siRNAs transferred HSF. Furthermore, TNFSF13 activated the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Silencing of HSPG2 and inhibition of NF-κB remarkably eliminated the promoting effects of TNFSF13 on cell viability, proliferation, migration, fibrosis and inflammation of HSF. MSC-exo reduced α-SMA and COL1A1 inhibited the proliferation and migration of HSF by inhibiting TNFSF13 and HSPG2. Conclusion TNFSF13 activates NF-κB signaling pathway by interacting with HSPG2, which regulates the proliferation, migration, fibrosis and inflammatory response of HSF. Through the above mechanisms, knocking out TNFSF13 can inhibit the proliferation, migration, fibrosis and inflammatory response of HSF, whereas MSC-exo could reverse this process. These results suggest that MSC-exo alleviates HS by inhibiting the fibroblasts via TNFSF-13/HSPG2 signaling pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Tetramethylpyrazine (TEP) can protect the brain from ischemic damage, but it has defects such as short half-life, fast absorption, wide distribution, and rapid elimination, which limits its application. Exosomes (Exos) have the property of loading drugs and transporting signal substances. Here, we elucidated the effect of TEP-loaded bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived Exos (Exo-TEP) on cerebral ischemic injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Exos were extracted by ultracentrifugation and TEP was loaded into the Exos by electroporation. Oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) induced-primary cortical neurons and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)-induced mouse models were used to determine the effect of Exo-TEP on cerebral ischemic injury in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS Exo-TEP exhibited a stable and sustained release pattern compared to free TEP. Exo-TEP treatment was more significant in improving OGD-mediated decrease in cell activity, as well as a elevation in apoptosis and ROS production in cortical neurons. In comparison with Exo and free TEP treatment, Exo-TEP treatment significantly improved pathological changes, shrunk cerebral infarction volume, as well reduced neurological deficit scores and neuronal apoptosis, and oxidative stress. CONCLUSIONS Exo-TEP was superior to free TEP in improving cerebral ischemic injury by reducing neuronal apoptosis and oxidative stress.

Abstract
In tissue engineering, the decellularization of organs and tissues as a biological scaffold plays a critical role in the repair of neurodegenerative diseases. Various protocols for cell removal can distinguish the effects of treatment ability, tissue structure, and extracellular matrix (ECM) ability. Despite considerable progress in nerve regeneration and functional recovery, the slow regeneration and recovery potential of the central nervous system (CNS) remains a challenge. The success of neural tissue engineering is primarily influenced by composition, microstructure, and mechanical properties. The primary objective of restorative techniques is to guide existing axons properly toward the distal end of the damaged nerve and the target organs. However, due to the limitations of nerve autografts, researchers are seeking alternative methods with high therapeutic efficiency and without the limitations of autograft transplantation. Decellularization scaffolds, due to their lack of immunogenicity and the preservation of essential factors in the ECM and high angiogenic ability, provide a suitable three-dimensional (3D) substrate for the adhesion and growth of axons being repaired toward the target organs. This study focuses on mentioning the types of scaffolds used in nerve regeneration, and the methods of tissue decellularization, and specifically explores the use of decellularized nerve tissues (DNT) for nerve transplantation.

Abstract
A typical condition of the female reproductive system is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, obesity, and hyperandrogenism are just a few of the metabolic abnormalities linked to this disease. Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease are further issues related to PCOS. One consequence of this syndrome for which numerous treatment procedures have been developed is infertility. Metformin and clomiphene, two common allopathic medications used to treat PCOS, both have drawbacks and are ineffective. It is vital to seek novel therapeutic modalities to address these constraints. Exosomes (EXOs) are a particular class of extracellular vesicles that cells release, and they are known to play a significant role in mediating intercellular communication. A wide range of cargo, including lipids, proteins, mRNA, miRNAs, and numerous other noncoding RNAs, are contained in the nanoscale lipid bilayer exosomes. The cytokine effects of stem cells and EXOs derived from them enable the defense against metabolic diseases like PCOS. Moreover, EXO microRNAs can potentially be employed as biomarkers in the detection and management of PCOS. In this study, the potential of stem cells and exosomes are specifically investigated in the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS as one of the diseases of the female reproductive system.

Abstract
Preeclampsia, gestational diabetes mellitus, and recurrent spontaneous abortion are common maternal pregnancy complications that seriously endanger women's lives and health, and their occurrence is increasing year after year with a rejuvenation trend. In contrast to biomarkers found freely in tissues or body fluids, exosomes exist in a relatively independent environment and provide a higher level of stability. As backbone molecules, guidance molecules, and signaling molecules in the nucleus, lncRNAs can regulate gene expression. In the cytoplasm, lncRNAs can influence gene expression levels by modifying mRNA stability, acting as competitive endogenous RNAs to bind miRNAs, and so on. Exosomal lncRNAs can exist indefinitely and are important in intercellular communication and signal transduction. Changes in maternal serum exosome lncRNA expression can accurately and timely reflect the progression and regression of pregnancy-related diseases. The purpose of this paper is to provide a reference for clinical research on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment methods of pregnancy-related diseases by reviewing the role of exosome lncRNAs in female pathological pregnancy and related molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
Endometriosis is a gynecological condition that significantly impacting women's daily lives. In recent years, the incidence of endometriosis has been rising yearly and is now an essential contributor to female infertility. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles (EVs) that carry long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and shield lncRNA from the outside environment thanks to their vesicle-like structure. The role of exosome-derived lncRNAs in endometriosis is also receiving more study as high-throughput sequencing technology develops. Several lncRNAs with variable expression may be crucial to the emergence and growth of endometriosis. The early diagnosis of endometriosis will be considerably improved by further high specificity and sensitivity Exosome lncRNA screening. Exosomes assist lncRNAs in carrying out their roles, offering a new target for creating endometriosis-specific medications. In order to serve as a reference for clinical research on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment options of endometriosis, this paper covers the role of exosome lncRNAs in endometriosis and related molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
Cell therapy is one of the methods that have shown promising results in treating diseases in recent decades. However, the use of different types of cells comes with limitations. The application of immune cells in cell therapy can lead to cytokine storms and inappropriate responses to self-antigens. Also, the use of stem cells has the potential to create tumors. Also, cells may not migrate to the injury site after intravenous injection. Therefore, using exosomes from different cells as therapeutic candidates were proposed. Due to their small size and favorable characteristics, such as biocompatibility and immunocompatibility, the easy storage and isolation, exosomes have attracted much attention. They are used in treating many diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, orthopedic diseases, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. However, the results of various studies have shown that the therapeutic efficiency of exosomes (Exo) can be increased by loading different drugs and microRNAs inside them (encapsulated exosomes). Therefore, analyzing studies investigating encapsulated exosomes' therapeutic ability is critical. In this study, we have examined the studies related to the use of encapsulated exosomes in treating diseases such as cancer and infectious diseases and their use in regenerative medicine. Compared to intact exosomes, the results show that the application of encapsulated exosomes has a higher therapeutic ability. Therefore it is suggested to use this method depending on the treatment type to increase the treatment's efficiency.

Abstract
The conventional therapeutic approaches to treat autoimmune diseases through suppressing the immune system, such as steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, are not adequately practical. Moreover, these regimens are associated with considerable complications. Designing tolerogenic therapeutic strategies based on stem cells, immune cells, and their extracellular vesicles (EVs) seems to open a promising path to managing autoimmune diseases' vast burden. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), dendritic cells, and regulatory T cells (Tregs) are the main cell types applied to restore a tolerogenic immune status; MSCs play a more beneficial role due to their amenable properties and extensive cross-talks with different immune cells. With existing concerns about the employment of cells, new cell-free therapeutic paradigms, such as EV-based therapies, are gaining attention in this field. Additionally, EVs' unique properties have made them to be known as smart immunomodulators and are considered as a potential substitute for cell therapy. This review provides an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of cell-based and EV-based methods for treating autoimmune diseases. The study also presents an outlook on the future of EVs to be implemented in clinics for autoimmune patients.

Abstract
A significant number of cancer-related deaths are recorded globally each year, despite attempts to cure this illness. Medical science is working to develop new medication therapies as well as to find ways to identify this illness as early as possible, even using noninvasive techniques. Early detection of cancer can greatly aid its treatment. Studies into cancer diagnosis and therapy have recently shifted their focus to exosome (EXO) biomarkers, which comprise numerous RNA and proteins. EXOs are minuscule goblet vesicles that have a width of 30 to 140 nm and are released by a variety of cells, including immune, stem, and tumor cells, as well as bodily fluids. According to a growing body of research, EXOs, and cancer appear to be related. EXOs from tumors play a role in the genetic information transfer between tumor and basal cells, which controls angiogenesis and fosters tumor development and spread. To identify malignant activities early on, microRNAs (miRNAs) from cancers can be extracted from circulatory system EXOs. Specific markers can be used to identify cancer-derived EXOs containing miRNAs, which may be more reliable and precise for early detection. Conventional solid biopsy has become increasingly limited as precision and personalized medicine has advanced, while liquid biopsy offers a viable platform for noninvasive diagnosis and prognosis. Therefore, the use of body fluids such as serum, plasma, urine, and salivary secretions can help find cancer biomarkers using technologies related to EXOs.
