Tiny Messengers, Big Impact: Exosome Therapy for Tendon and Cartilage Healing
What are Exosomes?
Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles released by cells; they act as couriers, carrying proteins, RNA and growth factors to injured tissue. This flow of biological “text messages” can calm inflammation and accelerate regeneration.
Exosomes in Orthopedics
- Tendon repair: Tenocyte-derived exosomes guide collagen remodeling.
- Cartilage regeneration: Chondrocyte exosomes stimulate matrix production.
- Broad anti-inflammatory effect: MSC-derived exosomes dampen chronic joint inflammation.
