Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoparticles encapsulated by a lipid bilayer produced by cells. Since they are secreted, they can be easily harvested or extracted from biological fluids. They carry ...

The following is a summary of "Proteomic profiling and functional analysis of extracellular vesicles from ...

Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells produce minute (40-1000 nm) membrane vesicles that are released into the local environment. These extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, ...

Kanazawa University and colleagues have developed a promising new approach to cancer treatment. By using tiny, naturally ...

For patients with polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a common genetic disorder that ravages the waste-removing organ with cysts ...

A new study in the peer-reviewed journal Stem Cells and Development highlights the potential of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) as a therapeutic strategy for high-dose ...

Kanazawa University, demonstrates a novel approach for nanoscopic profiling of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) using high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) videography. This pioneering method ...
