Engineered exosomes: a promising drug delivery platform with therapeutic potential.
Exosomes, small membranous vesicles naturally secreted by living cells, have garnered attention for their role in intercellular communication and therapeutic potential. Their low immunogenicity, high biocompatibility, and efficient biological barrier penetration make them promising drug delivery vehicles. This review spans research developments from 2010 to 2025, covering the engineering of exosomes to optimize cargo loading and targeting specificity. We discuss their applications in treating cardiovascular diseases, liver fibrosis, immune diseases, and neurological diseases, alongside ongoing clinical trials and industry progress. Future challenges include scalability, standardization, and minimizing off-target effects. We propose strategies to address these hurdles, such as bioengineering techniques and improved isolation methods. By synthesizing current knowledge and outlining future directions, this review aims to guide researchers toward harnessing exosomes for disease treatment.
期刊介绍:
Much of contemporary investigation in the life sciences is devoted to the molecular-scale understanding of the relationships between genes and the environment — in particular, dynamic alterations in the levels, modifications, and interactions of cellular effectors, including proteins. Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences offers an international publication platform for basic as well as applied research; we encourage contributions spanning both established and emerging areas of biology. To this end, the journal draws from empirical disciplines such as structural biology, enzymology, biochemistry, and biophysics, capitalizing as well on the technological advancements that have enabled metabolomics and proteomics measurements in massively parallel throughput, and the development of robust and innovative computational biology strategies. We also recognize influences from medicine and technology, welcoming studies in molecular genetics, molecular diagnostics and therapeutics, and nanotechnology.
Our ultimate objective is the comprehensive illustration of the molecular mechanisms regulating proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids, and small metabolites in organisms across all branches of life.
In addition to interesting new findings, techniques, and applications, Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences will consider new testable hypotheses to inspire different perspectives and stimulate scientific dialogue. The integration of in silico, in vitro, and in vivo approaches will benefit endeavors across all domains of the life sciences.
