Abstract

Integrating the versatility of synthetic nanoparticles to natural biomaterials, such as cells or cell membranes, has gained considerable attention as promising alternative cargo delivery platforms in recent years. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), natural nanomaterials composed of a protein-rich lipid bilayer secreted by cells, have also shown advantages and great potential as a nano delivery platform in combination with synthetic particles due to their specific natural properties in overcoming several biology hurdles possessed in the recipient cell. Therefore, the preservation of EV's origin properties is critical for their application as nanocarriers. This chapter will describe the encapsulation procedure of MSN encapsulated in EV membrane derived from mouse renal adenocarcinoma (Renca) cells through biogenesis. The FMSN-enclosed EVs produced through this approach still contain preserved EV's natural membrane properties.
