Extracellular vesicles at the periodontal immune-regenerative interface: coupled mechanisms and translational challenges.

Frontiers in immunology · Yan L, Sun X, Chen Y, Guo L, Liu R · 2026-10-06

Extracellular vesicles mediate communication between immune and tissue-repair cells in periodontitis, regulating inflammation and promoting healing of gingival, bone, and periodontal ligament tissues in experimental studies. Clinical translation requires standardized EV products, potency assays, and safety evaluation in disease-relevant models.
