December 2024 in “Cell Communication and Signaling” The study explores the protective role of adipose tissue-derived extracellular vesicles (AT-EVs) against skin photodamage, particularly from UVB exposure. Using nude mouse skin models, it was found that AT-EVs are more effective than those from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC-EVs) in promoting fibroblast proliferation, enhancing collagen synthesis, and reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA damage. This is attributed to the higher expression of CD151 and adiponectin in AT-EVs, which facilitate faster cellular uptake and activate protective pathways like AMPK while inhibiting NF-κB. These findings suggest that AT-EVs could be a promising therapeutic approach for skin photoaging and other related conditions.
