“…Untargeted proteomics revealed an enrichment of mitochondrial proteins in NSC-derived EVs (Peruzzotti-Jametti et al, 2021). Ultrastructurally intact and functionally preserved mitochondria are in NSC-EVs and could be transferred to restore mitochondrial function in target cells both in vitro and in vivo in a rodent model of multiple ↑ proliferation via ERK1/2 and STAT3 pathways (Zhang et al, 2021) miRNA miR-21a ↑ proliferation and differentiation targeting Sox2 and Stat3 (Shi et al, 2004) miR-9 Modulation of Hes-1 triggering differentiation and maturation of NSCs (Shi et al, 2004) miR-9 and miR-let-7 ↓ NSC proliferation and ↑ neural differentiation via TLX (Shi et al, 2004) miR-124 ↑ NSC neuronal differentiation, fate specification and differentiation in SVZ modulating BCL2L3 (Gharbi et al, 2023) Growth factor VEGF ↑ NSC proliferation in SGZ (Tabari et al, 2020) Protein Agrin ↑Hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptogenesis (Rodriguez-Grande et al, 2015;Tabari et al, 2020) Pentraxin-3 Restored SVZ neurogenesis post MCAo in vivo; ↑angiogenesis via VEGF upregulation in vitro (Tabari et al, 2020) Immunomodulatory activities miRNA Let-7 family microglia activation that negatively affects NSC proliferation in SVZ (Åkerblom et al, 2013) miR-9, miR-let-7, miR-26a, and miR-181c…”
