Abstract
Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) exhibit superior immunomodulatory properties and have broad therapeutic applications. They induce macrophage M2 polarization for anti-inflammatory responses. Exosomes derived from ADSCs (ADSC-EXOs) exhibit biological functions similar to those of ADSCs but can circumvent the limitations associated with cellular injection therapies. Potent anti-inflammatory substances contained in exosomes include the glycoprotein MFGE8, the cytokines such as prostaglandin E2, IL-6, and IGF, as well as non-coding nucleotides (miR-451a, miR-23, miR-30d-5p, let-7, lncRNA DLEU2, circRps5, Circ-Ptpn4, and mmu_ circ_0001359). The anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of these exosomes provide new perspectives for therapeutic approaches for graft inflammation, bone healing, acute lung injury, kidney stones, myocardial infarction, and diabetes-related diseases. This review summarizes the contents and functions of ADSC-EXOs, outlines their properties and the characteristics of macrophage phenotypes, and emphasizes their impact on macrophage polarization and their contribution to immune-related diseases.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Immunology is a leading journal in its field, publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research across basic, translational and clinical immunology. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide.
Frontiers in Immunology is the official Journal of the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS). Encompassing the entire field of Immunology, this journal welcomes papers that investigate basic mechanisms of immune system development and function, with a particular emphasis given to the description of the clinical and immunological phenotype of human immune disorders, and on the definition of their molecular basis.
