Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Skin Barrier Repair


Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Skin Barrier Repair: Applications in Wound Healing and Regenerative Medicine

Summary: This review examines the emerging role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in skin barrier repair and wound healing. EVs derived from various cell types carry bioactive molecules that promote re-epithelialisation, modulate inflammation, stimulate angiogenesis, and enhance tissue regeneration. The article discusses current applications and future potential in advanced wound therapies and regenerative medicine.

Key Highlights:

  • EVs play key roles in cell communication and tissue repair
  • Promising results in accelerating wound closure and reducing scarring
  • Potential as cell-free regenerative therapy
  • Applications in chronic wounds and skin regeneration
