    Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that play crucial roles in immune response, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and inflammation.

  • 2

    Exosomes can modulate immune rejection and tolerance in organ transplantation, offering therapeutic potential beyond mere biomarkers.

  • 3

    The biogenesis of exosomes involves the formation of multivesicular bodies that release intraluminal vesicles into the extracellular space.

  • 4

    Exosomes exhibit diverse immunomodulatory effects, influencing graft rejection or tolerance through antigen presentation.

  • 5

    Exosome-based strategies are being developed to enhance graft survival by promoting immune regulation and tissue repair.
