The correct processing, quality control and turnover of cellular RNA molecules is crucial to many aspects of cell physiology. The exosome—a large molecular assembly with exoribonuclease activity—has emerged as a crucial component in many, if not most, stages of RNA metabolism, including degradation and maturation of ribosomal RNA, RNA quality control ...

A Quantitative Pharmacology Model of Exosome-Mediated Drug Efflux and Perturbation-Induced Synergy
Exosomes, naturally occurring vesicles secreted by cells, are undergoing development as drug carriers. We used experimental and computational studies to investigate the kinetics of intracellular exosome processing and exosome-mediated drug efflux and the

Emerging Exosomes and Exosomal MiRNAs in Spinal Cord Injury [PDF]
Acute spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious traumatic event to the spinal cord with considerable morbidity and mortality. This injury leads to short- and long-term variations in the spinal cord, and can have a serious effect on the patient’s sensory, motor, or autonomic functions.

Mechanical characterization of cells and microspheres sorted by acoustophoresis with in-line resistive pulse sensing [PDF]
Resistive Pulse Sensing (RPS) is a key label-free technology to measure particles and single-cell size distribution. As a growing corpus of evidence supports that cancer cells exhibit distinct mechanical phenotypes from healthy cells, expanding the method from size to mechanical sensing could represent a pertinent and innovative tool for cancer ...

Defined MSC exosome with high yield and purity to improve regenerative activity
Exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been studied as vital components of regenerative medicine. Typically, various isolation methods of exosomes from cell culture medium have been developed to increase the isolation yield of exosomes.

Ultrasound-based Control of Micro-Bubbles for Exosome Delivery in Treating COVID-19 Lung Damage [PDF]
The recent COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in high fatality rates, especially for patients who suffer from underlying health issues. One of the more serious symptoms exhibited from patients suffering from an acute COVID-19 infection is breathing difficulties and shortness of breath, which is largely due to the excessive fluid (cellular leakage and ...

The RNA exosome and RNA exosome-linked disease [PDF]
The RNA exosome is an evolutionarily conserved, ribonuclease complex that is critical for both processing and degradation of a variety of RNAs. Cofactors that associate with the RNA exosome likely dictate substrate specificity for this complex. Recently, mutations in genes encoding both structural subunits of the RNA exosome and its cofactors have been
