Abstract (original English)

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) from individuals with steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) have not been studied. The objective of the present study was to compare the proosteogenic and proangiogenic effects of sEVs derived from BMMSCs from rats with steroid-induced ONFH (oBMMSCs-sEVs) and sEVs derived from BMMSCs from normal rats (nBMMSCs-sEVs). BMMSCs were isolated from steroid-induced ONFH rats and healthy rats. sEVs were isolated and characterized by Western blotting analysis of exosomal surface biomarkers and by transmission electron microscopy. The impacts of nBMMSCs-sEVs and oBMMSCs-sEVs on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMMSCs were determined via cell proliferation assay, alizarin red staining, and alkaline phosphatase activity assay. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and tube formation assay were conducted to investigate the effect of nBMMSCs-sEVs and oBMMSCs-sEVs on the angiogenic potential of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The expression of relevant genes was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis, and the expression of β -catenin was detected by immunofluorescence. Both nBMMSCs-sEVs and oBMMSCs-sEVs promoted proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, and β -catenin expression of BMMSCs and enhanced angiogenesis of HUV

What this study does not prove
