Human with spinal cord injury (SCI) show serious motor and sensory disability of the limbs. Since there is no an effective treatment for SCI, researchers are trying to develop and find a new therapeutic approach for SCI. CNS tissue engineering with various stem cells sources as well as their derived extracellular vesicle has been extensively attracted for providing reliable and safe approach for SCI treatment. Extracellular vesicles are lipid bilayer membrane-enclosed organelles containing various biomolecules involved in a variety of complex intercellular communication systems. They are released from all cell types into their surrounding environment and are important vehicles for paracrine The application of stem cells-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) has recently attracted attention to improve central nervous system dysfunction such as SCI, mainly by promoting neurogenesis and angiogenesis.
