Exosomes in Dermatology: Emerging Roles in Skin Health and Disease

    May 2025 in “ Pharmaceutics ”
    Salman Bin Dayel, Ramadan Hussein
    TLDR Exosomes could improve skin health and treat skin diseases, but more research is needed.
    Exosomes, nanosized extracellular vesicles, are emerging as significant tools in dermatology due to their role in intercellular communication and potential therapeutic applications. They influence skin health by aiding in wound healing, tissue regeneration, and immune responses, and show promise in treating conditions like psoriasis, eczema, acne, skin cancer, and alopecia. Exosome-based therapies offer advantages such as higher biocompatibility, lower immunogenicity, and enhanced targeting efficiency. Despite their potential, challenges remain in clinical application, necessitating further research to fully harness their therapeutic potential and develop personalized skin health strategies. The future of exosome-based therapies in dermatology looks promising, with ongoing research aimed at expanding their clinical applications.
