From: Exosomes derived from platelet-rich plasma present a novel potential in alleviating knee osteoarthritis by promoting proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis of chondrocyte via Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway

Cytokine release (TNF-α) of chondrocytes: In vitro, the chondrocytes were co-culture with PBS, IL-1β (10 ng/mL), IL-1β (10 ng/mL) added different concentration of PRP-Exos and PRP-As for 24 h. Osteoarthritis chondrocytes were established with TNF-α release increasing significantly(&<0.05). Both PRP-Exos and PRP-As with different concentration could inhibit TNF-α release significantly (*P < 0.05). Results were detected by ELISA with presenting as mean ± SEM from three independent experiments
