Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease caused by progressive articular cartilage degeneration and destruction. Currently, there are no disease-modifying agents officially approved for OA patients. In this study, curcumin was loaded into adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs)-derived small extracellular vesicle (ADMSCs-sEV) to synergistically exert chondro-protective effects in vitro and in vivo. We found curcumin primed ADMSCs derived sEV (sEV-CUR) exhibited an enhanced protective effect compared with free curcumin and ADMSCs-sEV in TBHP-induced chondrocytes. Moreover, our study demonstrated sEV-CUR more effectively down-regulated TBHP-induced oxidative stress and chondrocyte apoptosis in vitro. In OA mice model, our results indicated that sEV-CUR showed an improved cartilage protection, as biweekly intra-articular injection of sEV-CUR more efficaciously alleviated oxidative stress and chondrocyte apoptosis in OA cartilage. Overall, our findings showed sEV-CUR exhibited enhanced chondro-protective effects and holds great potential on the recovery of articular cartilage loss and destruction in OA patients.
