Exosomes, membrane-bound nanosized vesicles of biologic origin, are known to contain various molecules, e.g., proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which contribute the exosomes' ability mediate cell-to-cell communication. Recent impediments artificial nanoparticles in drug delivery, including low cellular uptake, activation immune system, tissue obstacles, have led scientists engineer exosomes as delivery vehicles. Though possess inherent properties stability, biocompatibility, immunogenicity, capability cross biological barriers, there is a need develop technologies that allow efficient loading therapeutic materials into exosomes. Here, we introduced simple peptide-equipped technology can enhance cargo-loading potential mild environment. Specifically, cell-penetrating peptide, YARA, derived from human immunodeficiency virus-1 trans-activator transcription, was covalently conjugated with miR-21-5p, mammalian microRNA. The conjugate YARA-miR-21-5p then incubated exosomes, isolated either mesenchymal stem cells or cancer cells, for loading. Exosomal time-dependent demonstrated an impressive 18.6-fold increase efficiency over exosomal miR-21-5p through incubation. After effective loaded rapidly delivered cells. Relative unloaded free YARA-miR-21-5p, significantly enhanced proliferation, migration, invasion mouse fibroblasts, vital steps wound healing. This study lays groundwork using peptides innovative approach efficiently load cargos, microRNAs, be employed deliver cargos yield effects.

Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized with a lipid bilayer that secreted by cells and play critical role in cell‐to‐cell communication. Despite the promising reports regarding their diagnostic therapeutic potential, utilization of EVs clinical setting is limited due to insufficient information about cargo lack standardization isolation analysis methods. Considering protein cargos as key contributors potency, we conducted tandem mass tag (TMT) quantitative proteomics three subpopulations mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)‐derived obtained through different techniques: ultracentrifugation (UC), high‐speed centrifugation (HS), on sucrose cushion (SU). Subsequently, checked EV marker expression, size distribution, morphological characterization, followed bioinformatic analysis. The proteome results revealed these exhibit distinct molecular functional characteristics. choice method impacts isolated isolating EVs. Specifically, (HS) exhibited higher abundance ribosomal mitochondrial proteins. Functional apoptosis assays comparing mitochondria methods HS‐EVs, but not other EVs, induced early cancer cells. On hand, using (SU) (UC) demonstrated proteins primarily involved immune response, cell‐cell interactions extracellular matrix interactions. Our analyses unveil notable disparities associated biological functions among subpopulations, underscoring importance meticulously selecting resultant based intended application.
