Potential upscaling protocol establishment and wound healing bioactivity screening of exosomes isolated from canine adiposederived mesenchymal stem cells

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes exhibit promising potential in tissue regeneration. Recent studies highlight its significant therapeutic potential in various stages of wound healing. However, the clinical translation of exosome-based therapy was hindered due to issues regarding low productivity and the lack of efficient production protocol to obtain a clinically relevant exosome quantity.
Therefore, this study established a potential upscaling protocol to produce exosomes derived from canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (cAD-MSCs) and explored its potential for wound treatment. The potential upscaling protocol, termed VSCBIC-3-3D, was carried out using VSCBIC-3
in-house serum-free exosome-collecting solution in a three-dimensional (3D) culture system followed by the tangential flow filtration (TFF) isolation. Our findings suggest that culturing cAD-MSCs with VSCBIC-3 maintained cell morphology and viability. Compared to conventional two-dimensional (2D)
protocols, The potential upscaling protocol increased exosome yield and concentration in conditioned medium by 2.4-fold and 3.2-fold, respectively. The quality assessment revealed enhanced purity and bioactivity of exosomes produced using the VSCBIC-3-3D protocol. In addition, the cAD-MSCs-derived exosomes were shown to significantly improve fibroblast migration, proliferation, and wound healingrelated gene expression in vitro. This study collectively demonstrates that potential upscaling protocol
establishment allowed robust production of exosomes from cAD-MSCs, which exhibit therapeutic potential for wound healing in vitro.
