Extracellular Vesicles from Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Promote Diabetic Wound Healing via the PI3K-AKT-mTOR-HIF-1α Signaling Pathway.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Impaired potential of hypoxia-mediated angiogenesis lead poor healing of diabetic wounds. Previous studies have shown that extracellular vesicles from adipose derived stem cells (ADSC-EVs) accelerate wound healing with unelucidated mechanism. However, it is not yet clear about the underlying mechanism of ADSC-EVs in regulating the hypoxia-related PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway of vascular endothelial cells in diabetic wounds. Therefore, in this study, human derived ADSC-EVs (hADSC-EVs) isolated from adipose tissue were co-cultured with advanced glycosylation end product (AGE) treated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro and local injected into the wounds of diabetic rats.

Methods

In vitro, the therapeutic potential of hADSC-EVs on AGE-treated
