Extracellular vesicles (exosomes) are particles released by cells that carry bioactive molecules (lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) and regulate intercellular communication. Inclusion of viable cells into wound repair products remains a technical challenge, and the alternative approach of incorporating their shed exosomes carries great potential to mediate key therapeutic effects of pro-reparative cells. In this session we will examine the experimental data establishing a role for exosomes in wound healing.
