Abstract
Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are lipid bilayer-enclosed particles secreted by living cells. Here, we present a protocol for the collection and isolation of sEVs derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hucMSCs). We describe steps for characterizing their morphology and integrity by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and size distribution using nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and an atomic force microscope (AFM). We then detail procedures for assessing nanoparticle size analysis and molecular markers by western blotting and Flow NanoAnalyzer.
