Exosomes: new targets for understanding axon guidance in the developing central nervous system.

Front Cell Dev Biol

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Tropical Translational Medicine and Ministry of Education, Hainan Academy of Medical Sciences, Hainan Medical University, Haikou, China.

Axon guidance is a key event in neural circuit development that drives the correct targeting of axons to their targets through long distances and unique patterns. Exosomes, extracellular vesicles that are smaller than 100 nm, are secreted by most cell types in the brain. Regulation of cell-cell communication, neuroregeneration, and synapse formation by exosomes have been extensively studied.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disease that is a frequent reason for pain and physical dysfunction in adults, with enormous social and economic burden. Although ongoing scientific efforts in recent years have made considerable progress towards understanding of the disease's molecular mechanism, the pathogenesis of OA is still not fully known, and its clinical challenge remains. Thus, elucidating molecular events underlying the initiation and progression of OA is crucial for developing novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches that could facilitate effective clinical management of the illness.

Exosomes, extracellular vesicles crucial for intercellular communication, are emerging as significant biomarkers for disease diagnosis, especially in cancer. This study presented a dual-mode exosome detection platform using polydopamine microspheres doped with iron and zinc ions (PDA@Fe@Zn). These materials served as both artificial receptors for nucleic acid aptamers and nanozymes with peroxidase-like activity.

Purpose: High-grade gliomas (HGG) represent a challenging subset of brain tumors characterized by aggressive nature and poor prognosis. Histopathology remains to be the standard for diagnosis, however, it is invasive, prone to sampling errors, and may not capture the full tumor heterogeneity and evolution over time. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the potential utility of circulating biomarkers, obtained through minimally-invasive liquid biopsies, providing an opportunity for diagnosis, prognostication, monitoring treatment response and developing targeted therapies.
