Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RIRI) is a serious kidney condition that causes significant damage due to lack of blood flow. This injury leads to oxidative stress and inflammation, which can cause acute tubular necrosis and kidney failure. Stem cell-derived exosomes, small vesicles released by stem cells, have shown promise in treating RIRI. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been used to mitigate RIRI, and their exosomes have been found to play a crucial role in repairing damaged tissues. This review explores the key roles of exosomes from different sources of MSCs in RIRI, the potential of MSC-derived exosomes in treating this disease, and future research directions.
