ABSTRACT: Background
Currently, there is no apparent treatment for sarcopenia, which is characterized by diminished myoblast function. We aimed to manufacture exosomes that retain the myogenic differentiation capacity of human fetal cartilage-derived progenitor cells (hFCPCs) and investigate their muscle regenerative efficacy in myoblasts and a sarcopenia rat model.Methods
The muscle regeneration potential of exosomes (F-Exo) secreted during myogenic differentiation of hFCPCs was compared to human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-derived (hBMSCs) exosomes (B-Exo) in myoblasts and sarcopenia rat model. The effect of F-Exo was analyzed through known microRNAs (miRNAs) analysis. The mechanism of action of F-Exo was confirmed by measuring the expression of proteins involved in the Wnt
