Studies have shown that circRNAs play an important regulatory role in trophoblast function and embryonic development. Based on sequencing and functional experiments, we found that hsa_circ_0069443 can regulate the function of trophoblast cells, and its presence is found in the exosomes secreted by trophoblast cells. It is known that exosomes mediate the interaction between the uterus and embryo, which is crucial for successful pregnancy.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a leading cause of mortality worldwide. As a chronic inflammatory disease with a complicated pathophysiology marked by abnormal lipid metabolism and arterial plaque formation, atherosclerosis is a major contributor to CVDs and can induce abrupt cardiac events. The discovery of exosomes' role in intercellular communication has sparked a great deal of interest in them recently.

Myocardial infarction (MI) poses a substantial threat to human health, prompting extensive research into effective treatment modalities. Preclinical studies have demonstrated the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes for cardiac repair. Despite their promise, the inherent limitations of natural exosomes, mainly their restricted targeting capabilities, present formidable barriers to clinical transformation.

Objectives: Melanoma is a highly aggressive and metastatic form of cancer, and the role of exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) in its progression remains largely unexplored. This study aimed to investigate the effects of melanoma cell-derived exosomal miR-424-5p on angiogenesis and its underlying mechanisms.
Methods: Exosomes were isolated from melanoma cell lines A375 and A2058, and their effects on the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were examined.

To enhance exploration on tumor stem-like cells (TSCs) without altering their cellular biological characteristics, researchers advocate for application of single-cell-derived tumor-spheres (STSs). TSCs are regulated by their surrounding microenvironment, making it crucial to simulate a tumor microenvironment to facilitate STS formation. Recently, exosomes that originated from the tumor microenvironment have emerged as a promising approach for mimicking the tumor microenvironment.
