Tailored Extracellular Vesicles: Novel Tool for Tissue Regeneration

Figure 4

The role of EV functioned hydrogel. Naive EVs and cargos encapsulated EVs can be combined with hydrogels. In addition, in order to increase the retention efficiency of EVs in hydrogel, anchor peptide can serve as a linker to bridge EV with hydrogel. EV functioned hydrogel is capable of promoting infarcted heart repair, accelerating wound healing, boosting kidney repair, strengthening nerve reparative outcome, and enhancing bone and endometrial regeneration.
