Several embodiments relate to methods of repairing and/or regenerating damaged or diseased tissue comprising administering to the damaged or diseased tissues compositions comprising exosomes. In several embodiments, the exosomes comprise one or more microRNA that result in alterations in gene or protein expression, which in turn result in improved cell or tissue viability and/or function.

Provided is a cell population comprising differentiated cells obtainable by inducing differentiation of pluripotent stem cells, wherein the content ratio of undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells is 0.2% or less.

Compositions and methods are provided for induction and maintenance of quiescence of stem cells.

Methods for preparing capsules, such as micro- and/or nanocapsules from all-aqueous emulsions are described herein. The method includes mixing, combining, or contacting a first electrically charged phase containing a first solute with at least an optionally charged second phase containing a second solute. The solutes are incompatible with each other. The electrostatic forces between the two solutions induce the formation of droplets of a dispersed phase in a continuous phase. The droplets are then solidified to form the capsules.
