Solution Overview

Problem

Current approaches for skin regeneration and anti-aging face challenges such as low efficiency and high technical expertise in utilizing exosomes, necessitating the development of a composition using vesicles derived from human tonsil-derived stem cells to overcome cellular senescence induced by oxidative stress and ultraviolet irradiation.

Innovation Solution

A composition containing nanovesicles derived from human tonsil-derived stem cells, which are produced through a method involving digestion, filtration, and extrusion, expressing specific cell surface markers and containing immune antigens, is used to promote skin regeneration and anti-aging by targeting senescent cells and regulating extracellular matrix and antioxidant genes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If exosomes are used for skin regeneration and anti-aging, then therapeutic potential is improved, but manufacturing complexity and technical expertise requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetherapeutic potentialVSAvoidmanufacturing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses exosome-mimetic nanovesicles that replicate the therapeutic functions of natural exosomes without requiring isolation from biological sources. These synthetic nanovesicles copy the essential properties (size, membrane structure, cargo delivery capability) of exosomes while being producible through standardized manufacturing processes, thereby maintaining therapeutic potential while reducing manufacturing complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent modifies key parameters of exosome production by transitioning from biological extraction to chemical/synthetic methods. This includes changing the source from cellular secretion to controlled synthesis, adjusting composition parameters to achieve similar therapeutic effects, and modifying production conditions to enable scalable manufacturing with reduced technical barriers

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If exosomes are used for skin regeneration, then regenerative effect is improved, but production time and efficiency worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveregenerative effectVSAvoidproduction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent incorporates therapeutic cargo (antioxidants, growth factors, nucleic acids) into the nanovesicles during the synthesis process itself, rather than requiring post-production loading steps. This preliminary action of pre-loading cargo during manufacturing streamlines the production process, reduces overall production time, and maintains the regenerative effectiveness of the final product

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Ease of manufacture

If nanovesicles are used instead of exosomes, then ease of production is improved, but biological authenticity may worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of productionVSAvoidbiological authenticity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by selectively incorporating specific biological components (cholesterol, phospholipids, proteins) at controlled locations and concentrations within the nanovesicle structure. This allows the synthetic nanovesicles to mimic the localized functional regions of natural exosomes, maintaining biological authenticity in critical areas while enabling simplified production elsewhere

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
