Exosomes (Exo) are a subset of extracellular vesicles (~50\u2013150 nm) that are secreted by cells and contain genetic material, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and other biological substances that have been extensively researched for bone and oral tissue regeneration. However, Exo-free biomaterials or exosome treatments exhibit poor bioavailability and lack controlled release mechanisms at the target site during tissue regeneration. By encapsulating the Exos into biomaterials like hydrogels, these disadvantages can be mitigated. Several tissue engineering approaches, such as those for wound healing processes in diabetes mellitus, treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) and cartilage degeneration, repair of intervertebral disc degeneration, and cardiovascular diseases, etc., have been exploited to deliver exosomes containing a variety of therapeutic and diagnostic cargos to target tissues. Despite the significant efficacy of Exo-laden hydrogels, their use in mineralized tissues, such as oral and bone tissue, is very sparse. This review aims to explore and summarize the literature related to the therapeutic potential of hydrogel-encapsulated exosomes for bone and oral tissue engineering and provides insight and practical procedures for the development of future clinical techniques.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms252011092","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,18]],"date-time":"2024-10-18T09:14:48Z","timestamp":1729242888000},"page":"11092","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["Exosome-Laden Hydrogels as Promising Carriers for Oral and Bone Tissue Engineering: Insight into Cell-Free Drug Delivery"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Cassandra","family":"Villani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Brodie Tooth Development Genetics & Regenerative Medicine Research Laboratory, Department of Oral Biology, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60612, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Prasathkumar","family":"Murugan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brodie Tooth Development Genetics & Regenerative Medicine Research Laboratory, Department of Oral Biology, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60612, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne","family":"George","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brodie Tooth Development Genetics & Regenerative Medicine Research Laboratory, Department of Oral Biology, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60612, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Matichescu, A., Ardelean, L.C., Rusu, L.C., Craciun, D., Bratu, E.A., Babucea, M., and Leretter, M.
