Extracellular vesicles (EV) are cell-originated vesicles exhibited with characteristics similar to the parent cells. Several studies have suggested the therapeutic potential of EV since they played as an intercellular communicator and modulate disease microenvironment, and thus EV has been widely studied in cancer management and tissue regeneration. However, merely application of EV revealed limited therapeutic outcome in different disease scenario and co-administration of drugs may be necessary to exert proper therapeutic effect. The method of drug loading into EV and efficient delivery of the formulation is therefore important. In this review, the advantages of using EV as drug delivery system compared to traditional synthetic nanoparticles will be emphasized, followed by the method of preparing EV and drug loading. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of EV was discussed, together with the review of reported delivery strategies and related application of EV in different disease management. |
