Abstract
Oral submucosal fibrosis is a highly malignant oral condition that necessitates the use of sophisticated therapeutic procedures. OSF is a multifactorial precancerous condition induced by areca nut chewing, deficiencies in vitamins and trace minerals, immunological aspects, and hereditary factors. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells possess the capability for multidirectional activation and are extensively distributed throughout the body. They have minimal immunogenicity and are extensively utilized in cancer treatment. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles produced by the intracellular route. They are biological carriers comprising microRNA, messenger RNA, lipids and proteins crucial for intercellular communication. ADSC exosomes, serving as a vehicle for miRNA, possess accessibility and little immunogenicity. They can significantly contribute to adipose tissue regrowth, angiogenesis, immunological modulation, and tissue repair. ADSC-Exo exhibits antifibrotic properties and may serve as a potential treatment for OSF. This review presents a novel therapeutic approach and clarifies the precise mechanisms involved in the clinical management of OSF using ADSC-Exo.
