Vesicular-mediated communication between cells appears critical in many biological processes. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from healthy and diseased cells are involved in a network of exchange of biologically active molecules. Since EVs present in biological fluids carry the signature of ...

from Bioscience Technology by Pauline Carnell The study of extracellular vesicles is an area that has recently become the subject of intense interest. These vesicles are apparently ubiquitous in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms and it is believed they have a ...

Much interest centers around microvesicles and nanovesicles (exosomes) as they are increasingly cited as potential biomarkers. Whilst definitions in this emerging field currently lack formality, these two classes of bio-nanoparticle are differentiated both by their size ranges and their biogenesis. ...

NanoSight reports on how Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis, NTA, is being used to study extracellular vesicles in the research laboratories of Dr. Gregory Gores of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. The Gores Laboratory of the Mayo Clinic does basic research ...
