Engineered Macrophages-Derived Exosomes by Click Chemistry for Treatment of osteomyelitis

Osteomyelitis is a severe bone condition caused by bacterial infection that can lead to lifelong disabilities or fatal sepsis. Given that the infection is persistent and penetrates deep into the bone tissue, targeting and rapidly treating osteomyelitis remain a significant challenge. Herein, a triblock targeting peptide featuring ROS-cleavable linkage/antibacterial/bone-targeting unit was grafted onto the macrophage-derived exosomes (RAB-EXO).
