Effects of MSCs-Exo and F-MSCs-Exo on inflammatory response and M1 polarization in vitro. (A, B) Western blot analysis was performed to detect the effects of MSCs-Exo and F-MSCs-ExoOD on inflammatory factors in chondrocytes induced by IL-1β. (C) The levels of IL-6, TNF-α, and PGE2 in the chondrocyte culture supernatant after IL-1β induction were measured using ELISA kits to assess the impact of MSCs-Exo and F-MSCs-Exo on these inflammatory mediators. (D, E) Flow cytometry was used to investigate the influence of MSCs-Exo and F-MSCs-Exo on M1 polarization. (ns, no significant difference; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001; n = 3)
