Rapid production method with increased yield of high-purity extracellular vesicles obtained using extended mitochondrial targeting domain peptide.

ABSTRACT: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nano-sized membranous structures involved in intercellular communication and various physiological and pathological processes. Here, we present a novel method for rapid (within 15 min), large-scale production of high-purity EVs using eMTDΔ4, a peptide derived from Noxa. The treatment of mesenchymal stem cells derived from human Wharton's jelly after trypsinization and subsequent eMTDΔ4 stimulation in a chemically defined sucrose buffer with orbital shaking led to a substantial increase (approximately 30-fold) in EV production with markedly high purity (approximately 45-fold). These EVs (TS-eEVs) showed higher regenerative and immunomodulatory potential than natural EVs obtained from the culture media after 48 h. The calcium chelator BAPTA-AM and calpain inh
