Extracellular Vesicle Transplantation Is Beneficial for Acute Kidney Injury.

ABSTRACT: Under vasculogenic conditioning, certain pro-inflammatory subsets within peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) undergo phenotypic transformation into pro-regenerative types, such as vasculogenic endothelial progenitor cells, M2 macrophages, and regulatory T cells. These transformed cells are collectively termed regeneration-associated cells (RACs). In this study, we aimed to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of RAC-derived extracellular vesicles (RACev) compared with a vehicle-treated group in the context of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (R-IRI). Human PBMCs were cultured with defined growth factor cocktails for seven days to harvest RACs. EV quantity and size were characterized by nanoparticle tracking analysis. Notably, the systemic injection of RACev significantly decreased
