Advances in the treatment of liver injury based on mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes

Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown a great potential role in treating liver injury. MSCs can promote liver regeneration by differentiating into hepatocytes, and can also secrete exosomes to participate in the repair of liver injury. Increasing evidence has shown that mesenchymal stem...

description Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown a great potential role in treating liver injury. MSCs can promote liver regeneration by differentiating into hepatocytes, and can also secrete exosomes to participate in the repair of liver injury. Increasing evidence has shown that mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-EXOs) play an important role in treating liver injury. In this review, the biogenesis and function of exosomes and the characteristics of MSC-EXOs were analyzed based on recent research results. MSC-EXOs are significant in liver injuries such as liver fibrosis, liver failure, hepatocellular carcinoma, oxidative stress, and lipid steatosis, and participate in the process of liver regeneration.
