Exosomes are known to play important role as a communication mediator between cells, and have been found to have certain effects on the human body, exemplified in likes of tissue repair. Focusing on this function, exosomes are beginning to be studied/used by multiple universities, bio-tech, and pharmaceuticals for several purposes such as for the prevention of skin sagging, as well as for the treatment of joint injury, with its goal set to be established as one of the main therapeutic modalities for the next generation of breakthrough biotherapeutics.
