Diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis with exosomes derived from different stem cells and carrying non-coding RNA
BACKGROUND:Exosomes can be detected in synovial fluid and plasma at levels that vary with the progression of osteoarthritis in patients with osteoarthritis,and may play a relieving role in the local inflammation of osteoarthritis,cartilage calcification,and osteoarthritic joint degradation.OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively understand the function and mechanism of exosomes from different stem cells in the diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis,and to present the prospects and challenges of exosome therapy for osteoarthritis.METHODS:We searched the articles published from October 2003 to October 2023 included in PubMed and CNKI databases with the keywords of"exosomes,osteoarthritis,mesenchymal stem cells,stem cells"in Chinese and English,respectively.A total of 99 articles were finally included for review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The appearance of exosomes brings hope to the diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis.The differences of RNA,protein,and lipid content in exosomes can be used as biomarkers for the diagnosis of osteoarthritis.At the same time,exosomes from various stem cells can effectively protect chondrocytes,relieve inflammation,maintain cartilage matrix metabolism,and regulate angiogenesis and subchondral bone remodeling,showing excellent potential in the treatment of osteoarthritis.The engineered exosomes break through the traditional limitations and enhance the specificity and efficiency of treatment by modulating the expression of specific non-coding RNA,providing a new strategy for the treatment of osteoarthritis.
