Rat Hair Follicle Stem Cell-Derived Exosomes: Isolation, Characterization and Comparative Analysis of Their In Vitro Wound Healing Potential.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Stem cell-derived secretome and exosomes present a promising cell-free strategy for tissue repair and wound healing. This study aimed to isolate and characterize, for the first time, exosomes derived from rat hair follicle stem cells (rHFSCs) and to evaluate their wound-healing potential alongside rHFSC secretome. Exosomes were isolated via ultracentrifugation and characterized using Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR), biomarker profiling and protein quantification. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) confirmed their spherical morphology, diameter and elemental composition. Protein quantification showed higher protein content in the secretome than in exosomes. RT-PCR and biomarker profiling highlighted the therapeutic relevance of the exosomal cargo compared to parent rHFSCs. Functional analysis of 30 wound-healing biomolecules validated their pro-regenerative potential. Cytocompatibility was confirmed via the PrestoBlue™ viability assay, while scratch assays demonstrated significant wound closure in the treated groups, both with and without mitomycin C. These findings highlight the potential of rHFSC-derived exosomes and secretome as innovative, cell-free therapeutic agents for cutaneous regeneration. This study advances our understanding of their role in wound healing and underscores their broader applicability in regenerative medicine.
