Summary: This narrative review focuses on the role of exosomes in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and their potential clinical applications. The specific changes in exosome cargos, such as miRNAs and proteins, are found to be associated with the occurrence and development of CVDs, making them meaningful for the diagnosis and prognosis of CVDs. Additionally, exosomes can also be utilized as drug transporters and potential therapeutic methods. Overall, exosomes are expected to serve as meaningful tools in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of CVDs.

Summary: Exosomes, natural nanocarriers, have advantages over synthetic nanocarriers and have been widely used in disease diagnosis and treatment. Engineered exosomes have significantly improved the delivery of therapeutic agents and are extensively employed in various fields. Plant-derived exosomes, which can participate in gut flora remodeling via oral administration, are considered as an ideal platform for the treatment of intestinal diseases.

Summary: This study presents a panel of clonal embryonic endothelial progenitor cell lines derived from human embryonic stem cells. These cell lines exhibit characteristics of endothelial cells and show strong transcriptomic similarity to adult endothelial primary cell lines. The cells have demonstrated scalability and stable angiogenic properties, making them a potential source for therapeutic cells in cardiovascular disease treatment.

Summary: This observational study focused on monkeypox cases in Madrid, Spain, and investigated the clinical and virological aspects of the disease. The findings revealed that the virus circulating in Spain belongs to the western African clade, mainly affecting cisgender men who have sex with men (MSM). The first symptom of the disease was skin lesions, and the disease followed a self-limited course.

Summary: Exosomes are membrane-surrounded extracellular vesicles that mediate intercellular communication by delivering bioactive molecules. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), a class of non-protein-coding RNAs, play important roles in the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). In this article, we review the current studies on exosomal lncRNAs secreted and absorbed by cardiomyocytes and their functional roles in CVDs, aiming to deepen our understanding of the pathological mechanisms of CVDs and their potential for clinical diagnosis and therapy.

Summary: Increasing research over the past decade has focused on urinary exosomes (UEs) and their relationship with physiological and pathological processes. UEs are membranous vesicles containing bioactive molecules that can serve as biomarkers for early disease identification. Recent studies have isolated exosomal metabolites from urine, which can be used for discovery of biomarkers, investigation of disease mechanisms, and prediction of cardiovascular disease risk factors. Alterations in certain urinary metabolites have shown potential in predicting cardiovascular risk factors, offering a novel approach to evaluate the pathological status of cardiovascular diseases.

Summary: Neutrophils play important roles in infection and inflammation, but their contribution to inflammation resolution has been under-studied. This study identified a subpopulation of neutrophils with pro-resolving characteristics and showed that 4-PBA can train neutrophils into the resolving state with enhanced phagocytosis and bacterial-killing functions. These findings have implications for the treatment of acute infection and chronic inflammatory diseases.
