Background And Purpose: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have been demonstrated to improve cardiac function via the secretion of paracrine factors rather than direct differentiation. We, therefore, investigated whether bone marrow-derived MSC (BMSC)-released exosomes (BMSC-exo) enhance neurological recovery in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) with ischemic stroke.
Methods: Markers of BMSC and BMSC-exo were detected to characterize BMSC and BMSC-exo. A green fluorescent PKH-67-labeled assay was conducted to ensure BMSC-exo internalization. Rat neuronal cells (RNC) were induced with Ang II and oxygen-glucose deprivation. The protective effects of BMSC-exo on RNC were studied by CCK-8, LDH, and immunofluorescence assays. SHR were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion, and the systolic and diastolic blood pressure changes in the modeled rats were measured. The effects of BMSC-exo on SHR were investigated by mNSS scoring, foot-fault tests, immunohistochemistry, Western blot, TTC staining, TUNEL, and HE staining. The hub genes related to SHR and proteins shuttled by BMSC-exo were intersected to obtain a possible candidate, followed by rescue experiments.
Results: BMSC-exo significantly promoted RNC viability and repressed cell apoptosis and cytotoxicity. Moreover, SHR administrated with BMSC-exo exhibited significant improvement in functional recovery and narrowed infarct size. BMSC-exo shuttled the MYCBPAP protein. Knockdown of MYCBPAP inhibited the protective effects of BMSC-exo on RNC and exacerbated synaptic damage in SHR.
Conclusions: MYCBPAP shuttled by BMSC-exo facilitates synaptic remodeling in SHR, which may contribute to a therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke treatment.

Objective: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) presents a therapeutic challenge due to its aggressiveness and poor survival rates. This study introduces an approach using tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP2)-enriched bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (BMSC-Exo) encapsulated in chitosan hydrogels (CS), intending to provide novel insight into the CCA treatment.
Methods: BMSC-Exo was characterized by using TEM, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blotting.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent chronic degenerative joint disease among the aged population. The primary objective of this study was to assess the therapeutic potential of puerarin loaded bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (Pue@BMSC-Exo), and reveal their inflammatory regulating mechanisms through affecting the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signaling pathway. In this study, exosomes derived from BMSCs were isolated and identified.

Doxorubicin (DOX) is an important chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of hematologic tumors and breast carcinoma. However, its clinical application is limited owing to severe cardiotoxicity. Pyroptosis is a form of programmed cell death linked to DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) is a significant challenge in the management of myocardial ischemic disease. Extensive evidence suggests that the macrophage‑mediated inflammatory response may play a vital role in MIRI. Mesenchymal stem cells and, in particular, exosomes derived from these cells, may be key mediators of myocardial injury and repair.
