Exosome Engineering Service

Exosome Engineering is a technology that involves the modification of exosomes to enhance their applications in cell therapy, drug delivery, and immune regulation. Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles secreted by cells, widely present in various body fluids, and naturally carry molecules such as proteins, RNA, and lipids, which allow them to effectively participate in intercellular communication. By engineering the surface, contents, and biological properties of exosomes, they can be endowed with stronger targeting abilities, higher drug-loading capacities, or enhanced therapeutic effects in specific diseases.

 

Exosome engineering service has broad applications in cancer treatment, gene therapy, immunotherapy, and neurodegenerative diseases, among other fields. For example, in cancer treatment, engineered exosomes can serve as drug carriers, precisely targeting tumor cells; in immunotherapy, exosomes can carry antigens or immune-modulating factors to enhance immune responses. Through engineering modifications of exosomes, their delivery efficiency can be improved, and toxicity reactions can be reduced, thereby holding immense potential for clinical therapies.

Case Study

1. Engineering of MSC-Derived Exosomes: A Promising Cell-Free Therapy for Osteoarthritis

This study aims to explore the use of engineered mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes as a cell-free therapy for osteoarthritis. The research focuses on MSC-derived exosomes and evaluates their potential in osteoarthritis treatment. The study methodology involves isolating MSC-derived exosomes and engineering them through molecular loading or surface modifications to enhance their therapeutic efficacy. High-resolution mass spectrometry and functional assays were used to assess the therapeutic effects of these modified exosomes on osteoarthritis. The results demonstrate that engineered exosomes significantly improve symptoms in an osteoarthritis mouse model, including reducing inflammation, promoting cartilage repair, and enhancing joint function. Compared to unmodified exosomes, the engineered exosomes exhibit stronger anti-inflammatory effects and greater regenerative potential. The study concludes that MSC-derived engineered exosomes hold great promise as a cell-free therapy for osteoarthritis, offering effective treatment with high clinical translational potential.
