Objective To summarize the research progress on the role of exosomes derived from different sources in hepatic stellate cells.Method The experimental studies and clinical applications of exosomes from different cell sources effected on hepatic stellate cells were reviewed.Results In the occurrence and development of liver fibrosis pathological physiological process, the activation, proliferation, migration, apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells played the important roles on the development of liver fibrosis. In recent years, the study found that the exosomes derived from different sources contained active protein, mRNA, microRNA, long noncoding RNA, and lipid components involved in the biological function of hepatic stellate cells, realized the communication between cells, which played the important regulatory role in the formation of liver fibrosis.Conclusions Exosomes derived from different sources and their contents play an important regulatory role in occurrence and development of liver fibrosis. In the future, exosomes might become a new non-invasive diagnostic method for liver fibrosis to help its early diagnosis, and might also be used as a biological active carrier to achieve its targeted therapy for targeted tissues and cells.
