Migrasomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells: a new therapeutic agent for ovalbumin-induced asthma in mice by Weifeng Gu, Tingting Zheng, Wen Li, Xinkai Luo, Xiaowei Xu, Ying Wang, Chaoming Mao, Yongbin Ma, Liyang Dong

“…The therapeutic effects of migrasomes on airway inflammation in ovalbumin (OVA)-induced asthmatic mice were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and periodic-acid schiff (PAS) staining, and their mechanism were further testified by immunofluorescent staining, real-time PCR and flow cytometry. Results Here, we showed that inhibition of migrasomes’ production dramatically impaired the anti-inflammatory effects of hUCMSCs in OVA animals, as evidenced by a notable increase in both the infiltration of inflammatory cells and the number of epithelial goblet cells. …”
