A limitation of using exosomes to their fullest potential is their limited secretion from cells, a major bottleneck to efficient exosome production and...

To study the inhomogeneity within a cell population including exosomes properties such as exosome secretion rate of cells and surface markers carried by exosomes, we need to quantify and characterize those exosomes secreted by each individual cell. Researchers from the ...

A team of scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (CNIC), led by Prof. Francisco Sánchez-Madrid, has characterized a cell signal that impedes intercellular communication and could play a central role in biomedical strategies such as gene ...

Directional cell movement through tissues is controlled by exosome secretion. Bong Hwan Sung et al (2015), Nature Communications http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/ncomms8164 Directional cell movement through tissues is critical for multiple biological processes and requires maintenance of polarity in the face of complex ...

Directional cell movement through tissues is critical for multiple biological processes and requires maintenance of polarity in the face of complex environmental cues. Here researchers from the Vanderbilt University Medical Center use intravital imaging to demonstrate that secretion of exosomes ...
