Research overview

In this study, we extracted Ti-Exos from human oral squamous carcinoma and paracancerous tissue by ultracentrifugation, size exclusion chromatography, and ultrafiltration and performed exosome characterization. In vivo assays also verified that OSCC Ti-Exos could promote diabetic wound healing, demonstrated preliminary biosafety in mice, and have promise as therapeutic applications.

Key findings

It is a widespread and difficult problem that refractory diabetic wounds have a poor local environment and prolonged inflammatory irritation.

Tumor cell-derived exosomes play an important role in the development of tumors, as they can promote tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and enhance tumor cell activity.

However, tumor tissue-derived exosomes (Ti-Exos) have been less studied, and it is unclear how they affect wound healing.

In this study, we extracted Ti-Exos from human oral squamous carcinoma and paracancerous tissue by ultracentrifugation, size exclusion chromatography, and ultrafiltration and performed exosome characterization.
