Abstract

A method for promoting generation of a mitochondria-containing microvesicle and a pharmaceutical use thereof. Specifically, provided is a use of a combination of a mitochondrial generation promoting factor and an extracellular vesicle generation promoting factor, for use in promoting generation of the mitochondria-containing microvesicle. Also provided is a method for generating an extracellular vesicle composition: co-culturing a cell having mitochondria with the mitochondrial generation promoting factor and the extracellular vesicle generation promoting factor to obtain the extracellular vesicle composition rich in the mitochondria-containing microvesicle. Adding the above factors may promote the cell to generate the mitochondria-containing microvesicle. The collected mitochondria are encapsulated by the microvesicle, and therefore can be easily stored and transferred into the cell. Also provided are an isolated extracellular vesicle composition, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same, and a use thereof in preparing a medicine for treating diabetes and/or renal injury.
