Exosomes as Mediators of Cell-to-Cell Communication in Thyroid Disease [PDF]
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2020 Exosomes are a type of extracellular vehicle, formed by budding cell membranes, containing proteins, DNA, and RNA. Concentrated cargoes from parent cells are enveloped in exosomes, which are cell specific and may have functions in the recipient cell ...

The evolution of cell-to-cell communication in a sporulating bacterium.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2012 Traditionally microorganisms were considered to be autonomous organisms that could be studied in isolation. However, over the last decades cell-to-cell communication has been found to be ubiquitous.

Downregulation of stromal syntenin sustains AML development
EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2023 The crosstalk between cancer and stromal cells plays a critical role in tumor progression. Syntenin is a small scaffold protein involved in the regulation of intercellular communication that is emerging as a target for cancer therapy.

Bacterial biofilms and infections
Журнал инфектологии, 2014 It is now a common perception that the vast majority of bacterial life in nature is found in surface-bound communities called biofilms rather than in isolated planktonic cells.

The Multiple Languages of Endothelial Cell-to-Cell Communication [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2006 Intercellular adhesion plays a key role during development and maintenance of tissue homeostasis. Within the vascular system, cell–cell adhesion is particularly important for the correct formation, networking, and remodeling of vessels. Although in vascular endothelial cells adhesive junctions account for the integrity of the vessel wall, they are not ...
