Logic-Based Strategy for Spatiotemporal Release of Dual Extracellular Vesicles in Osteoarthritis Treatment.
To effectively treat osteoarthritis (OA), the existing inflammation must be reduced before the cartilage damage can be repaired; this cannot be achieved with a single type of extracellular vesicles (EVs). Here, a hydrogel complex with logic-gates function is proposed that can spatiotemporally controlled release two types of EVs: interleukin 10 (IL-10)+ EVs to promote M2 polarization of macrophage, and SRY-box transcription factor 9 (SOX9)+ EVs to increase cartilage matrix synthesis. Following dose-of-action screening, the dual EVs are loaded into a matrix metalloporoteinase 13 (MMP13)-sensitive self-assembled peptide hydrogel (KM13E) and polyethylene glycol diacrylate/gelatin methacryloyl-hydrogel microspheres (PGE), respectively. These materials are mixed to form a "microspheres-in-gel" KM13E@PGE system. In vitro, KM13E@PGE abruptly released IL-10+ EVs after 3 days and slowly released SOX9+ EVs for more than 30 days. In vivo, KM13E@PGE increased the CD206+ M2 macrophage proportion in the synovial tissue and decreased the tumor necrosis factor-α and IL-1β levels. The aggrecan and SOX9 expressions in the cartilage tissues are significantly elevated following inflammation subsidence. This performance is not achieved using anti-inflammatory or cartilage repair therapy alone. The present study provides an injectable, integrated delivery system with spatiotemporal control release of dual EVs, and may inspire logic-gates strategies for OA treatment.
