Adipose‐derived stem cell exosomes alleviate TGF‐β1‐induced urethral stricture fibrosis by suppressing the TGF‐β/Smad pathway and downstream PDGFR‐β/RAS/ERK signaling

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2025.
Adipose‐derived stem cell exosomes alleviate TGF‐β1‐induced urethral fibrosis by inhibiting the PDGFR‐β/RAS/ERK signaling axis. This study reveals a dual regulatory mechanism through both the TGF‐β/Smad and platelet‐derived growth factor pathways, offering a promising noninvasive strategy for fibrotic disease treatment and urethral stricture prevention.
