Abstract
Extracellular vesicle (EV) therapy recently had shown significant efficacy in various diseases. Serum starvation culture (SC) is one of the most widely used methods for collecting EVs. However, SC may cause inadvertent effects and eventually dampen the therapeutic potential of EVs. Therefore, we developed a novel method for EV collection, continuous nutrient supply culture (CC), which can provide an optimal condition for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by continuously supplying essential nutrients to MSCs. By comparing with SC strategy, we revealed that CC could maintain CC-MSCs in a normal autophagy and apoptotic state, which reduced the shunting of EV precursors in cells and useless information material carried by EVs. In CC-MSCs, the expression levels of endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) and targeting GTPase27 (Rab27) were upregulated compared to those in SC-MSCs. Besides, we analyzed the membrane transport efficiency of EV formation, which demonstrated the CC strategy could promote the formation of EV precursors and the release of EVs. In addition, miRNA analysis revealed that CC-EVs were enriched with anti-chronic inflammatory factors, which could inhibit the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway, mitigate chronic inflammation, and effectively repair skin photo-aging damage.
