The 96-well plates were precoated with 10 µg/mL anti-mouse CD3 mAb (BioLegend) and 5 µg/mL anti-mouse CD28 mAb (BioLegend) to stimulate CD4+T-cells. The total CD4+T-cells were isolated from spleens of naive mice by positive CD4+T-cell isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotec, USA). The cells were then labeled with 1 µM carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) (Invitrogen) for 10 min and co-cultured with MSC-sEVs at a concentration of 10 µg/ml. After 72 h of incubation, the CFSE fluorescence intensity was measured by FACS and analyzed by FlowJo.
