Abstract
Characterized by their pivotal roles in cell-to-cell communication, cell proliferation, and immune regulation during tissue repair, exosomes have emerged as a promising avenue for "cell-free therapy" in clinical applications. Hydrogels, possessing commendable biocompatibility, degradability, adjustability, and physical properties akin to biological tissues, have also found extensive utility in tissue engineering and regenerative repair. The synergistic combination of exosomes and hydrogels holds the potential not only to enhance the efficiency of exosomes but also to collaboratively advance the tissue repair process. This review has summarized the advancements made over the past decade in the research of hydrogel-exosome systems for regenerating various tissues including skin, bone, cartilage, nerves and tendons, with a focus on the methods for encapsulating and releasing exosomes within the hydrogels. It has also critically examined the gaps and limitations in current research, whilst proposed future directions and potential applications of this innovative approach.

Differential Proteomic Profiles of Coronary Serum Exosomes in Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients with or Without Diabetes Mellitus: ANGPTL6 Accelerates Regeneration of Endothelial Cells Treated with Rapamycin via MAPK Pathways. Cardiovasc Drugs Ther 2024; 38:13-29. [PMID: 35821539 DOI: 10.1007/s10557-022-07365-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 07/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Delayed re-endothelialization after coronary drug-eluting stent implantation is associated with an increased incidence of late in-stent thrombosis. Serum exosomes exhibit controversial effects on promoting endothelialization. This study aimed to compare the angiogenic effects of serum exosomes derived from patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and AMI plus diabetes mellitus (DM) and to explore the underlying mechanisms. METHODS Serum exosomes derived from patients in the control (Con-Exos), AMI (AMI-Exos), and AMI plus DM (AMI+DM-Exos) groups were isolated and identified using standard assays. CCK-8, wound healing, and tube formation assays were performed to detect the angiogenic abilities of serum exosomes on rapamycin-conditioned human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Differential proteomic profiles between AMI-Exos and AMI+DM-Exos were analyzed by mass spectrometry. The effects and potential mechanisms of exosomal angiopoietin-like 6 (ANGPTL6) were investigated. RESULTS Functional assays indicated that compared with Con-Exos, AMI-Exos enhanced, whereas AMI+DM-Exos inhibited the cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation of rapamycin-conditioned HUVECs. Subsequently, 28 differentially expressed proteins between AMI-Exos and AMI+DM-Exos were identified, which were correlated with material transportation, immunity, and inflammatory reaction. Moreover, ANGPTL6 was highly enriched in AMI-Exos. Overexpression and knockdown of ANGPTL6 enhanced and inhibited angiogenesis, respectively. Furthermore, the effect of ANGPTL6 on angiogenesis was mediated via the activation of ERK 1/2, JNK, and p38 pathways. The inhibition of ERK 1/2 signaling markedly attenuated the migration abilities of overexpressing ANGPTL6. CONCLUSION Diabetes impairs the regenerative capacities of serum exosomes. Exosomal ANGPTL6 contributes to endothelial repair and is a novel therapeutic target for enhanced stent endothelization.

Exosomes from hepatitis B virus-infected hepatocytes activate hepatic stellate cells and aggravate liver fibrosis through the miR-506-3p/Nur77 pathway. J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2023; 37:e23432.

Abstract
Cumulative evidence indicates the important role of Nur77 in organ fibrogenesis. However, the role of Nur77 in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related liver fibrosis (LF) remains unclear. Cells were transfected with the microRNA mimic miRNA-506-3p or inhibitor, and pcDNA3.1-Nur77 or Nur77 guide RNA. Exosomes were isolated from HBV-infected HepG2-sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide cells. The levels of miR-506-3p, Nur77, and LF-related genes and proteins were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and western blot analysis, respectively. The pathology of the liver from HBV-infected patients was examined using hematoxylin-eosin and Masson's staining. The expression of Nur77 in liver tissue was determined by immunohistochemistry, and the LF score was assessed using the METAVIR system. The relationship between miR-506-3p/Nur77 and LF score was analyzed by correlation analysis. HBV infection downregulated miR-506-3p expression and upregulated Nur77 levels in hepatocytes. Exosomes from HBV-infected hepatocytes also displayed decreased gene expression of miR-506-3p and increased expressions of Nur77- and LF-related genes in stellate cells compared with exosomes from hepatocytes with mock infection. These changes were reversed by Nur77 guide RNA. Nur77 expression in liver tissue was strongly correlated with LF, whereas serum miR-506-3p was strongly negatively correlated with LF. Exosomes from HBV-infected hepatocytes activate stellate cells and aggravate LF through the miR-506-3p/Nur77 pathway. These exosomes may be the basis of a promising therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), as part of the cellular secretome, have emerged as essential cell-cell communication regulators in multiple physiological and pathological processes. Previous studies have widely reported that mesenchymal stromal cell-derived EVs (MSC-EVs) have potential therapeutic applications in ischemic diseases or regenerative medicine by accelerating angiogenesis. MSC-EVs also exert beneficial effects on other vasculopathies, including atherosclerosis, aneurysm, vascular restenosis, vascular calcification, vascular leakage, pulmonary hypertension, and diabetic retinopathy. Consequently, the potential of MSC-EVs in regulating vascular homeostasis is attracting increasing interest. In addition to native or naked MSC-EVs, modified MSC-EVs and appropriate biomaterials for delivering MSC-EVs can be introduced to this area to further promote their therapeutic applications. Herein, we outline the functional roles of MSC-EVs in different vasculopathies and angiogenesis to elucidate how MSC-EVs contribute to maintaining vascular system homeostasis. We also discuss the current strategies to optimize their therapeutic effects, which depend on the superior bioactivity, high yield, efficient delivery, and controlled release of MSC-EVs to the desired regions, as well as the challenges that need to be overcome to allow their broad clinical translation.

Abstract
Chronic diabetic wounds have become a significant cause of disability worldwide. It is highly desired to develop effective therapies that can promote the rapid healing of diabetic wounds. Owing to the outstanding hydrophilic and water-retaining properties, hydrogels could accelerate the healing process. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have shown the ability to promote cell regeneration and angiogenesis. In this study, we chose a gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel, a kind of biomaterial characteristic of good biocompatibility, to load the EVs derived from umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) in order to have a long-lasting effect by consistent release of EVs. Then, the hydrogel with EVs was used to treat diabetic wounds in rat models. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize the synthesis of the hydrogel; cell experiments, animal experiments, and histological staining were used to evaluate the function of the hydrogel with EVs. The results show that the GelMA hydrogel incorporated with the UCMSC-derived EVs exhibits unique physicochemical properties, excellent biocompatibility, and much enhanced therapeutic effects for diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Ischaemic disorders are leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. While the current therapeutic approaches have improved life expectancy and quality of life, they are unable to "cure" ischemic diseases and instate regeneration of damaged tissues. Exosomes are a class of extracellular vesicles with an average size of 100-150 nm, secreted by many cell types and considered a potent factor of cells for paracrine effects. Since exosomes contain multiple bioactive components such as growth factors, molecular intermediates of different intracellular pathways, microRNAs and nucleic acids, they are considered as cell-free therapeutics. Besides, exosomes do not rise cell therapy concerns such as teratoma formation, alloreactivity and thrombotic events. In addition, exosomes are stored and utilized more convenient. Interestingly, exosomes could be an ideal complementary therapeutic tool for ischemic disorders. In this review, we discussed therapeutic functions of exosomes in ischemic disorders including angiogenesis induction through various mechanisms with specific attention to vascular endothelial growth factor pathway. Furthermore, different delivery routes of exosomes and different modification strategies including cell preconditioning, gene modification and bioconjugation, were highlighted. Finally, pre-clinical and clinical investigations in which exosomes were used were discussed.

Abstract
Decellularization of tissues and organs has recently become a promising approach in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine to circumvent the challenges of organ donation and complications of transplantations. However, one main obstacle to reaching this goal is acellular vasculature angiogenesis and endothelialization. Achieving an intact and functional vascular structure as a vital pathway for supplying oxygen and nutrients remains the decisive challenge in the decellularization/re-endothelialization procedure. In order to better understand and overcome this issue, complete and appropriate knowledge of endothelialization and its determining variables is required. Decellularization methods and their effectiveness, biological and mechanical characteristics of acellular scaffolds, artificial and biological bioreactors, and their possible applications, extracellular matrix surface modification, and different types of utilized cells are factors affecting endothelialization consequences. This review focuses on the characteristics of endothelialization and how to optimize them, as well as discussing recent developments in the process of re-endothelialization.

Abstract
Background Chronic endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) plays a crucial role in cardiovascular diseases. Thus, it can be considered a therapeutic target for these diseases. In this study, poly (D,L-lactic acid) (PDLLA) nanoparticle-eluting stents loaded with tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA), an ER stress inhibitor, was fabricated to assess their ability to reduce endothelial cell apoptosis and promote re-endothelialization after stent implantation. Materials and methods PDLLA nanoparticles loaded with TUDCA were prepared via the emulsification-solvent evaporation method. The cumulative release rates of TUDCA were measured in vitro via high-performance liquid chromatography. The carotid arteries of rabbits were subsequently implanted with stents in vivo. The rabbits were then sacrificed after 4 weeks for scanning electron microscopy. Meanwhile, TUDCA concentration in the homogenate of the peripheral blood and distal vascular tissue after stent implantation was measured. The effect of TUDCA on ERS, apoptosis, and human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) function was investigated in vitro by performing cell migration assay, wound healing assay, cell proliferation assays, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-specific fluorescence staining, immunofluorescence, and western blotting. Results TUDCA nanoparticles were released slowly over 28 days. In addition, TUDCA-eluting stents enhanced re-endothelialization and accelerated the recovery of endotheliocytes in vivo. ERS and apoptosis significantly increased in H2O2-treated HUVECs in vitro. Meanwhile, TUDCA reduced apoptosis and improved function by inhibiting ERS in H2O2-treated HUVECs. Decreased rates of apoptosis and ERS were observed after silencing XBP-1s in H2O2-treated HUVECs. Conclusion TUDCA can inhibit apoptosis and promote re-endothelialization after stent implantation by inhibiting IRE/XBP1s-related ERS. These results indicate the potential therapeutic application of TUDCA as a drug-coated stent.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex and integrated process of the interaction of various components within the injured tissue. Accumulating evidence suggested that stem cell-derived exosomal transcriptomes could serve as key regulatory molecules in wound healing in stem cell therapy. Stem cell-derived exosomal transcriptomes mainly consist of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs) and messenger RNAs (mRNAs). In this article we presented a brief introduction on the wound repair process and exosomal transcriptomes. Meanwhile, we summarized our current knowledge of the involvement of exosomal transcriptomes in physiological and pathological wound repair process including inflammation, angiogenesis, and scar formation.
