Popis: Aim: Proper healing of extensive burns remains a healthcare challenge. In the present study, we proposed a distinct therapeutic application of adipose tissue and small extracellular vesicles isolated from human menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MenSC) small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) to enhance the repair of third-degree burn injury. Materials & methods: Mouse model of third-degree burn was used. Adipose tissue in the form of nano-fat (NF) and MenSC-sEVs was injected subcutaneously at the site of injuries. Results: NF and sEVs were capable of enhancing wound closure and increasing neoangiogenesis. NF was also effective in accelerating the formation of granulation tissue and boosting the thickness of the new epithelial layer. Conclusion: This study demonstrates the effectiveness of NF and MenSC-sEVs as promising therapeutic approaches to facilitate the repair of skin burns.
