Comprehensive Proteomic Analysis of Exosomes Derived from Human Bone Marrow-, Adipose Tissue-, and Human Umbilical Cord- Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-derived exosomes (exo) have shown comprehensive application prospects over the years. Despite similar functions, exomes from different origins present heterogeneous characteristics and components; however, there are no relevant proteomic analyses. In this study, we isolated exosomes from MSCs, derived from different tissues, by ultracentrifugation. A total of 1014 proteins were detected using a label-free method and analyzed with bioinformatics tools. The results revealed their shared function in the extracellular matrix receptor. Bone marrow-MSCs-derived exosomes showed superior regeneration ability. Likewise, adipose tissue-MSCs-derived exosomes played a significant role in immune regulation. Whereas, umbilical cord-MSCs-derived exosomes were more prominent in tissue damage repair.
