Human bone marrow- and adipose-mesenchymal stem cells secrete exosomes enriched in distinctive miRNA and tRNA species.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that primary MSCs release small RNAs via exosomes, which are increasingly implicated in intercellular communications, and may help to understand how M SCs impact neighboring or distant cells with possible consequences for their therapeutic usage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exosomes: novel effectors of human platelet lysate activity

TL;DR: It is suggested that exosomes consistently contribute to PL activity and could represent an advantageous nanodelivery system for cell-free regeneration therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti‐Fas–induced apoptosis in chondrocytes reduced by hyaluronan: Evidence for CD44 and CD54 (intercellular adhesion molecule 1) involvement

TL;DR: These data demonstrate that 500-730-kd HA exerts an antiapoptotic effect on anti-FAS-induced chondrocyte apoptosis by binding its specific receptors (CD44 and ICAM-1), and this HA fraction may be able to slow down chondrospecific apoptosis in OA by regulating the processes of cartilage matrix degradation.
