Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are the common designation for ectosomes, microparticles and microvesicles serving dominant roles in intercellular communication. Both viable and dying cells release EVs to the extracellular environment for transfer of...

In less than a year from its zoonotic entry into the human population, SARS-CoV-2 has infected more than 45 million people, caused 1.2 million deaths, and induced widespread societal disruption. Leading SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidates immunize with the viral spike protein ...

Codiak BioSciences, a company at the forefront of advancing engineered exosomes as a new class of biologic medicines, today announced that it has entered into two strategic collaborations with the Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT and Harvard to investigate the ...

Exosomes are lipid bilayer-enclosed vesicles of endosomal origin, which initially considered as garbage bins to dispose unwanted cellular components, but they are now emerged as an...

Researchers at the National Center for Global Health, Italy recently described a novel biotechnological platform for the production of unrestricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) vaccines. It relies on in vivo engineering of exosomes, i.e., nanovesicles constitutively released by all cells, ...

Extracellular vesicles are nano-sized spherical bilayered proteolipids encasing various components. Cells of all domains of life actively release these vesicles to the surroundings including various biological fluids. These extracellular vesicles are known to play pivotal roles in numerous pathophysiological functions. ...

The medical world may be one step closer to an affordable, effective therapeutic vaccine for hepatitis C virus (HCV), according to a new study appearing in the latest issue of STEM CELLS Translational Medicine. The study, by scientists at Second ...
