Abstract

Exosomes are integral to the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA) due to their roles in mediating intercellular communication and regulating inflammatory processes. Exosomes are integral to the transport of bioactive molecules, such as proteins, lipids and nucleic acids, which can influence chondrocyte behavior and joint homeostasis. Given their properties of regeneration and ability to target damaged tissues, exosomes represent a promising therapeutic avenue for OA treatment. Exosomes have potential in promoting cartilage repair, reducing inflammation and improving overall joint function. However, several challenges remain, including the need for standardized isolation and characterization methods, variability in exosomal content, and regulatory hurdles. The present review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of exosome mechanisms in OA and their therapeutic potential, while also addressing the ongoing challenges faced in translating these findings into clinical practice. By consolidating existing research, the present review aims to pave the way for future studies aimed at optimizing exosome‑based therapies for effective OA management.
