Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Exosomes Facilitate Diabetic Wound Healing: Mechanisms and Potential Applications

Abstract: Wound healing in diabetic patients is frequently hampered. Adipose-derived stem cell exosomes (ADSC-eoxs), serving as a crucial mode of intercellular communication, exhibit promising therapeutic roles in facilitating wound healing. This review aims to comprehensively outline the molecular mechanisms through which ADSC-eoxs enhance diabetic wound healing. We emphasize the biologically active molecules released by these exosomes and their involvement in signaling pathways associated with inflammation modulation, cellular proliferation, vascular neogenesis, and other pertinent processes. Additionally, the clinical application prospects of the reported ADSC-eoxs are also deliberated. A thorough understanding of these molecular mechanisms and potential applications is anticipated to furnish a theoretical groundwork for combating diabetic wound healing.
