Extracellular vesicles such as exosomes, microvesicles, apoptotic bodies, and large
oncosomes have been shown to participate in a wide variety of biological processes and are …

All living cells release extracellular vesicles having pleiotropic functions in intercellular
communication. Mammalian extracellular vesicles, also known as exosomes and …

Exosomes are small vesicles of endosomal origin that are released by almost all cell types,
even those that are pathologically altered. Exosomes widely participate in cell-to-cell …

Various mammalian cells including tumor cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs),
otherwise known as exosomes and microvesicles. EVs are nanosized bilayered proteolipids …

Intercellular communication is an essential hallmark of multicellular organisms and can be
mediated through direct cell–cell contact or transfer of secreted molecules. In the last two …

Intercellular communication was long thought to be regulated exclusively through direct
contact between cells or via release of soluble molecules that transmit the signal by binding …

In multicellular organisms both health and disease are defined by patterns of communication
between the constituent cells. In addition to networks of soluble mediators, cells are also …

Release of membrane vesicles, a process conserved in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes,
represents an evolutionary link, and suggests essential functions of a dynamic extracellular …

Cells release membrane enclosed nano-sized vesicles termed extracellular vesicles (EVs)
that function as mediators of intercellular communication by transferring biological …

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a heterogeneous collection of membrane-bound vesicles
released by cells that contain bioactive cargoes including proteins, lipids and nucleic acids …
