Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are gaining increasing attention for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in various diseases. These natural nanoparticles benefit from favorable safety profiles unique biodistribution capabilities, rendering them attractive drug-delivery modalities over synthetic analogs. However, the widespread use of EVs is limited by technological shortcomings biological knowledge gaps that fail to unravel their heterogeneity. An in-depth understanding biogenesis crucial unlocking full potential. Here, we explore how about EV can be exploited bioengineering load protein or nucleic acid cargos into onto EVs. We summarize more than 75 articles discuss findings on formation composition exosomes microvesicles, revealing multiple pathways may stimulation and/or cargo dependent. Our analysis further identifies key regulators loading this integrated develop engineered biotherapeutics.

Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nano-sized, natural, cell-derived that contain the same nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids as their source cells. Thus, they can serve natural carriers for therapeutic agents drugs, have many advantages over conventional nanocarriers, including low immunogenicity, good biocompatibility, blood – brain barrier penetration, capacity gene delivery. This review first introduces classification of EVs then discusses several currently popular methods isolating purifying EVs, EVs-mediated drug delivery, functionalization carriers. Thereby, it provides new avenues development EVs-based strategies in different fields medicine. Finally, highlights some challenges future perspectives with regard to clinical application EVs.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), as a type of life-threatening and highly disabled disease, has limited therapeutic approaches. Here, we show that exosomes derived from young healthy human plasma exhibiting typical features could facilitate functional recovery ICH mice. When these are intraventricularly delivered into the brain after ICH, they mainly distribute around hematoma be internalized by neuronal cells. Strikingly, administration markedly enhanced behavioral mice through reducing injury cell ferroptosis. MiRNA sequencing revealed microRNA-25-3p (miR-25-3p) was differentially expressed miRNA in plasma, compared with old control. Importantly, miR-25-3p mimicked treatment effect on improvement, mediated neuroprotective against ferroptosis ICH. Furthermore, luciferase assay western blotting data illustrated P53 assumed role downstream effector miR-25-3p, thereby regulating SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway to counteract Taken together, findings firstly reveal improve counteracting ferroptotic P53/SLC7A11/GPX4 axis Given easy availability exosomes, our study provides potent strategy for patients quick clinical translation near future.
