Despite improvements in clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), mortality rates remain high, indicating the need for further understanding of the pathogenesis and developing more effective cardiac protection strategies. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) carry proteins and noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) derived from different cardiac cell populations, mainly including cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells, cardiac progenitor cells, cardiosphere-derived cells, immune cells, fibroblasts and cardiac telocytes have vital roles under both physiological and pathological process such as myocardial infarction (MI). The content of EVs can also indicate the status of their parental cells and serve as a biomarker for monitoring the risk of cardiac injury.

All Food and Drug Administration-approved noncoding RNA (ncRNA) drugs (n≈20) target known disease-causing molecular pathways by mechanisms such as antisense. In a fortuitous evolution of work on regenerative medicine, my coworkers and I inverted the RNA drug discovery process: first we identified natural disease-modifying ncRNAs, then used them as templates for new synthetic RNA drugs. Mechanism was probed only after bioactivity had been demonstrated.

The objective of the study was to assess the therapeutic efficacy of targeting remote zone cardiomyocytes with cardiosphere-derived cell (CDC) extracellular vesicles (EVs) delivered via intramyocardial and intravenous routes following acute myocardial infarction (MI). Cardiomyocyte (CM) cell death plays a significant role in left ventricular (LV) remodeling and cardiac dysfunction following MI. While EVs secreted by CDCs have shown efficacy in promoting cardiac repair in preclinical models of MI, their translational potential is limited by their biodistribution and requirement for intramyocardial delivery.

The heart is a multicellular system, and the intercellular crosstalk mechanism is very important for the growth and development of the heart and even the organs, tissues, and cells at a distance. As a kind of extracellular vesicle, exosomes are released by different types of cells and can carry specific genetic material, endosomal proteins, cytokines, etc., which are the main material basis for mediating cell crosstalk mechanism.
