Exosomes extracted from A549 cells, and the ASMA protein expression in A549 exosomes. Morphology of exosomes extracted from A549 cells was seen under an electron microscope (A), and western blot assay disclosed that the expressions of exosome markers CD9, CD63, CD81, TGF-β1 Flotillin-1 and EEF2 were elevated in Exosome group than those in NC group (sample from serum-free medium) (B). ASMA protein expression was upregulated in A549 exosomes (C). ASMA, alpha-smooth muscle actin; NC, negative control.
