Exosomes are small membrane vesicles (30-100nm in diameter) secreted by cells into extracellular space. The present study evaluated the effect of chemotherapeutic agents on exosome production and/or release, and quantified the contribution of exosomes to intercellular drug transfer and pharmacodynamics. ...

Exosomes have recently come into focus as “natural nanoparticles” for use as drug delivery vehicles. Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill set out to assess the feasibility of an exosome-based drug delivery platform for a potent ...
