THE SIGNIFICANCE OF MESENCHYMAL STEM CELL-DERIVED EXOSOMES IN BIOTECHNOLOGY
This article discusses the biotechnological significance of exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Exosomes are
nano-sized extracellular vesicles that play a key role in intercellular communication by transferring proteins, lipids, and nucleic
acids. MSC-derived exosomes exhibit strong immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative properties, making them
highly promising for applications in medicine, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and diagnostics. The paper analyzes the production
stages, advantages, and biotechnological potential of MSC exosomes.
