1. An extracellular vesicle for treating Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) produced by a method comprising:
i) nanotransfecting skin cells with a non-viral vector encoding a fusion protein comprising:
a) surfactant protein-A (SPA) capable of binding P63/CKAP4 or CD200 capable of binding CD200R and
b) a heterologous exosomal or lysosomal transmembrane protein under conditions suitable for extracellular vesicle secretion, and
ii) collecting the extracellular vesicles produced by the skin cells comprising the fusion protein, and wherein the extracellular vesicles are loaded with a therapeutic cargo, the heterologous exosomal protein or lysosomal transmembrane protein is inserted into the EV membrane and the SPA or CD200 protein are capable of binding P63/CKAP4 or CD200R.
