Flower-derived exosome types
|
Research case
|
|
Catharanthus roseus-derived Exosome
|
Catharanthus roseus-derived exosomes attenuated cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppressive effects and up-regulated the hematopoietic-related transcription factor PU.1 after intraperitoneal injection into mice, showing potential for the treatment of immune system disorders.
|
|
Aloe-derived Exosome
|
Aloe vera-derived exosomes detect active ingredients such as aloesin, aloe-emodin, and β-sitosterol, as well as glucose ceramides as their main lipid type, which are antioxidant and pro-repairing.
|
|
Rose-derived Exosome
|
Exosomes isolated from roses have great potential to be powerful cosmetics that promote skin regeneration, increase skin suppleness, and minimize wrinkles.
|
|
Centella-derived Exosome
|
Centella asiatica-derived exosomes carry asiaticoside that activates epithelial cells and promotes the formation of normal granulation tissue, which contributes to wound healing. Also, they prevent disorderly keloid proliferation and post-traumatic tissue adhesion by inhibiting the proliferation of fibroblasts.
|
|
Tea Flower-derived Exosome
|
Tea flower-derived vesicles contain a variety of active substances such as catechins, flavonoids, functional proteins, and lipids. Findings suggest that they can modulate intestinal flora and inhibit metastatic breast cancer in tumor-bearing mice after intravenous or oral administration.
|
|
Tea-derived Exosome
|
Naturally occurring exosome-like vesicles in fresh tea exhibit excellent breast cancer therapeutic potential, and their oral administration avoids adverse effects such as hepatotoxicity and abnormal activation of the immune system.
|
|
Honey-derived Exosome
|
Honey-derived exosomes present in honey whose nectar has been transformed by converting enzymes from the hypopharyngeal glands of worker bees show antimicrobial effects.
