Extracellular vesicles could provide cardiovascular biomarkers through liquid biopsy while offering new approaches for therapeutic delivery and...

Circulating extracellular vesicles released from diseased kidneys carry toxic microRNAs that damage the heart, offering new biomarker and therapeutic...

Extracellular vesicles and exosomes act as the body’s molecular messengers, influencing immune responses, cancer metastasis, and inflammation...

Optimized isolation protocols reveal the true composition and biological functions of circulating extracellular vesicles, clarifying their roles in inflammation, angiogenesis, and disease...

RNA sequencing of extracellular vesicles from human carotid plaques reveals how endothelial cell communication may drive plaque instability, offering insight into stroke risk and potential treatment targets...

Extracellular vesicles, naturally derived nanoparticles secreted by cells, are being genetically engineered to deliver potent gene therapies for cardiovascular...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have found that extracellular vesicles from red blood cells contribute to blood vessel damage in type 2 diabetes. These vesicles transfer arginase-1, leading to oxidative stress and impaired vascular function. Blocking vesicle uptake and arginase activity could offer new therapeutic strategies for diabetes-related vascular...

Extracellular vesicles, particularly exosomes, are emerging as a powerful tool for heart repair. Researchers highlight their role in reducing...

As we age, our risk for developing cardiovascular (CV) diseases increases. One of the reasons for this is chronic inflammation, often referred to as "inflammaging," which plays a significant role in the...

A major EU project coordinated by UCD studying particles that act as messengers between cells could transform the diagnosis and treatment of cancer...
