Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by the loss of a functional dystrophin protein; the muscles of DMD patients progressively degenerate as a result of mechanical stress during contractions, and the condition eventually leads to premature death. By means antisense oligonucleotides (AONs), it is possible to modulate pre-mRNA splicing eliminating mutated exons and restoring dystrophin open reading frame. To overcome the hurdles in using AONs for therapeutic interventions, we exerted engineered human DMD stem cells with a lentivirus, which permanently and efficiently delivered the cloned AONs. Here we describe for the first time the exosome-mediated release of AONs from engineered human DMD CD133+ stem cells allowing the rescue of murine dystrophin expression. Finally, upon release, AONs could be internalized by host cells suggesting a potential role of exosomes acting as vesicular carriers for DMD gene therapy.
