Small extracellular vesicles (EVs) are 50–200 nm vesicles secreted by most cells. They are considered as mediators of intercellular communication, and EVs from specific cell types, in particular mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), offer powerful therapeutic potential, and can provide a novel therapeutic strategy. They appear promising and safe (as EVs are non‐self‐replicating), and eventually MSC‐derived EVs (MSC‐EVs) may be developed to standardized, off‐the‐shelf allogeneic regenerative and immunomodulatory therapeutics. Promising pre‐clinical data have been achieved using MSCs from different sources as EV‐producing cells. Similarly, a variety EV isolation and characterization methods have been applied. Interestingly, MSC‐EVs obtained from different sources and prepared with different methods show in vitro and in vivo therapeutic effects, indicating that isolated EVs share a common potential. Here, well‐characterized and controlled, publicly available proteome profiles of MSC‐EVs are compared to identify a common MSC‐EV protein signature that might be coupled to the MSC‐EVs’ common therapeutic potential. This protein signature may be helpful in developing MSC‐EV quality control platforms required to confirm the identity and test for the purity of potential therapeutic MSC‐EVs.
