Dr. Ayesha Saleem is a leading expert on extracellular vesicles and she says there’s no drug on Earth that is as beneficial as exercise. But one day, you may be able to take a pill that delivers some of the ...

Ageing muscle releases fewer tumor-suppressive extracellular vesicles, while exercise restores their production, revealing a biological connection between physical activity, muscle health, and cancer protection...

Extracellular vesicles from diabetic muscle cells carry miR-499-5p, a molecule that disrupts blood vessel growth by silencing SOX6 in endothelial cells. Blocking these vesicles or their cargo could offer new hope for treating critical limb ischemia in diabetes...

University of Queensland (UQ) researchers will explore if naturally occurring particles in our muscles could unlock new treatments for Motor Neurone Disease (MND). Backed by $1.3 million in funding...

Skeletal muscle function is important for good health and independent living, and has been subject to numerous studies focused on skeletal muscle development, function and metabolism. However, progressive and degenerative changes in skeletal muscle function often occur following physiological and ...
