1. A method for constructing functional exosomes capable of efficiently loading specific micro-RNA (miRNA), comprising the following steps:
S1 connecting a MS2 phage capsid protein to a C1C2 domain in an exosome's Lactadherin protein to construct a C1C2-MS2 (CM) lentiviral plasmid;
S2 connecting a site pac protein to a target miRNA to construct a pac-miRNA-pac (p-miRNA-p) lentiviral plasmid, wherein the site pac protein is connected to both ends of miRNA to bind MS2;
S3 packaging the two plasmids obtained in step S1 and step S2 into lentivirus and infecting mesenchymal stem cells with the lentivirus; obtaining a confirmed stable transgenic cell line through screening of resistant drugs; saving the stem cell supernatant; and extracting the exosomes by ultracentrifugation.
