Abstract

Exosomes are nanoscale vesicles widely used as drug delivery systems. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes have shown immunomodulatory potential. This study optimized loading OVA into the mice adipose tissue-derived MSC-isolated exosomes to prepare the OVA-MSC-exosome complex for allergen-specific immunotherapy. MSCs were harvested from mice adipose tissue and characterized by flow cytometry and evaluating differentiation potential. The exosomes were isolated and characterized via Dynamic Light Scattering, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and flow cytometry. Different concentrations of ovalbumin were incubated with MSC-exosome in various durations to optimize a more suitable protocol. BCA and HPLC analysis were used to quantify, and DLS was applied to qualify the prepared formulation of the OVA-exosome complex. The harvested MSCs and isolated exosomes were characterized. Analysis of the OVA-exosome complex revealed that OVA in primary 500 μg/ml concentration and incubation for 6 h results in higher efficacy. Loading OVA into MSC-derived exosomes was successfully optimized and could be administrated for allergen-specific immunotherapy in the animal model.
