Research advances in the treatment of lung diseases based on mesenchymal stem cell exosomes

Abstract

Exosomes secreted by mesenchymal stem cell(MSC-EXOs)carry lipids,proteins,nucleic acids and other signaling substances, which play an important role in intercellular communication, immune regulation and vascular regeneration. MSC-EXOs in pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary fibrosis and other lung diseases can improve the function of the lung tissue and treat lung diseases by regulating different signaling pathways, reducing cell inflammatory reaction, regulating immune function, improving the function of mitochondria, promoting angiogenesis, reducing pulmonary vascular remodeling and etc.,which provides new ideas for the treatment of refractory lung diseases in the future.
