From: Adipose stem cell-derived nanovesicles inhibit emphysema primarily via an FGF2-dependent pathway
ASCs-derived artificial nanovesicles enhance growth factor expression in recipient lungs. C57BL/6 mice were intratracheally injected with elastase on day 0 and then intratracheally or intravenously injected with 1/3 × of artificial nanovesicles (Nano), 1 × of exosome (Exo) or 1 × 105 of ASCs on day 7. On day 14, mice were sacrificed, and the lungs were collected. ELISA were performed for mouse FGF2 (a), VEGF (b) and HGF (c) using lung protein lysate. (*P<0.05)
