Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic figure illustrating the mechanism underlying the therapeutic effect of macrophage-derived EVs on MI. Myocardial iron overload, cardiomyocytes ferroptosis, and cardiac function impairment were detected in the hearts post MI, which contributed to the poor prognosis of MI. This work identified that macrophage-derived EVs exhibited protective effect on reducing myocardial iron overload, alleviating cardiomyocytes ferroptosis, and improving cardiac function post MI. Mechanistically, TfR on macrophage-derived EVs was the key player responsible for binding with transferrin and removing protein-bound iron. These iron-chelating EVs were ultimately captured and processed by macrophages in the liver
