Effect of Small Extracellular Vesicles Produced by Mesenchymal Stem Cells on 5xFAD Mice Hippocampal Cultures.

ABSTRACT: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common progressive neurodegenerative diseases leading to impairments in memory, orientation, and behavior. However, significant work is still needed to fully understand the progression of such disease and develop novel therapeutic agents for AD prevention and treatment. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) have received attention in recent years due to their potential therapeutic effects on AD. The aim of this study was to determine the potential effect of sEVs in an in vitro model of AD. sEVs were isolated from human Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by asymmetric depth filtration, a method developed recently by us. AD was modeled in vitro using cells obtained from the hippocampi of newborn 5xFAD transgenic mice carrying mutations inv
