Freeze-Dried and GMP-Compliant Pharmaceuticals Containing Exosomes for Acellular Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Immunomodulant Therapy

Abstract

UF led to higher protein, lipid, cytokine and exosomes yields compared with UC. The isolation procedure and cell source influenced immunomodulatory activity, which was in vitro evaluated by inhibition of phytohemagglutinin-activated peripheral blood mononuclear cell proliferation, and by modulation of IL-10, IFN-γ and IL-6. A secretome dosage was identified to obtain the same immunomodulatory activity of MSCs, paving the way for cell-free therapy.
