Progress in the potential therapeutic mechanism of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes for liver fibrosis
Liver fibrosis is pathological in most chronic liver diseases.Exosomes secreted by mes-enchymal stem cells(MSCs)can regulate liver fibro-sis through mechanisms such as inhibition of in-flammatory response and proliferation of activated hepatic stellate cells,regulation of immune cells and metabolism.Therefore,MSC-derived exosomes can be used as a cell-free therapy for chronic liver disease,expanding new ideas for the treatment of chronic liver disease.Recent researches on MSC-de-rived exosomes in the treatment of liver fibrosis are reviewed in this article.
