The abnormal differentiation of Th17 cells is a vital promoter of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) progression. In this study, the authors found that miR-199a-5p is downregulated during ITP. Supplementation of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from miR-199a-5p-modified ADSCs markedly repress Th17 differentiation by transferring miR-199a-5p to CD4+T cells, thus ameliorating experimental ITP.
