Exosomes and Drug-Loaded Exosomes

Exosomes carry proteins,active factors,and other highly bioactive substances secreted by parent cells,activating cell regeneration functions.After penetrating the skin, they release encapsulated nutrients,continuously nourishing,adjusting the cellular microenvironment,and enhancing cell vitality,thereby promoting cell migration,collagen and elastin repair of damage,cell regeneration,and restoring cells to a youthful state.Major applications include skin repair,anti-aging,sensitive skin repair,whitening and spot removal,and hair growth.Natural exosomes derived from different cellular sources have already been commercialized in the medical beauty and skincare fields.Engineered exosomes are designed and loaded using bioengineering and chemical engineering strategies.

There are three loading methods:

  • Endogenous loading
  • Exogenous loading(Which can load proteins,nucleic acids,small molecules,etc.,one common method being electroporation)
  • Loading during the production process(Loading efficiency and processing capacity are crucial.In March 2024,Taiwan became the fifth country in the world,after the United States,Canada,Japan,and South Korea,to open the medical beauty market to human exosomes)

Etta Singapore provides exosome raw materials to premium medical beauty,skincare,and hair growth brands;collaborates with them to research solutions based on exosome applications for skin repair,anti-aging,sensitive skin repair,whitening,spot removal,and hair growth;and offers CDMO services(technical process development and scale production)for relevant raw materials.

Etta Singapore offers drug-loading services to exosome raw material manufacturers.
