In the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, RNA decay in the 3'-5' direction is carried out by a complex of exonucleases called the exosome. Surprisingly, the purified exosome shows only weak activity in vitro. Two papers in this issue of Cell, by LaCava et al. (2005) and Wyers et al. (2005), and a third report by Vanacova et al.

Orally Administered Bifidobacterium adolescentis Diminishes Serum Glutamate Concentration in Mice
Several studies have described the contribution of glutamate-transforming microbiota to the development of chronic ailments. For instance, the blood concentration of glutamate is higher in some patients with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and pain ...

The study of exosomes and microvesicles secreted from breast cancer cell lines [PDF]
Exosomes are small secreted vesicles of endocytic origin with a size range of 50-150 nm. They are secreted by many cell types and display multiple biological functions including immune-activation, immune-suppression, antigen presentation, and the ...

Exosomes are a new horizon in modern therapy, presenting exciting new opportunities for advanced drug delivery and targeted release. Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles with a size range of 30-100 nm, secreted by all cell types in the human body and carrying a unique collection of DNA fragments, RNA species, lipids, protein biomarkers ...

The Role of Exosomes and Exosomal MicroRNA in Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
Exosomes are small vesicles (30–150 nm in diameter) enclosed by a lipid membrane bilayer, secreted by most cells in the body. They carry various molecules, including proteins, lipids, mRNA, and other RNA species, such as long non-coding RNA, circular RNA, and microRNA (miRNA). miRNAs are the most numerous cargo molecules in the exosome.

Sepsis is a severe state of infection with high mortality. Pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) initiate dysregulated systemic inflammation upon binding to pattern recognition receptors. Exosomes are endosome-derived vesicles, which carry proteins, lipids and nucleic acids, and facilitate intercellular

Neutrophils are prominent components of solid tumors and exhibit distinct phenotypes in different tumor milieu. We have previously shown that tumor extracellular vesicles (EVs) could induce pro-tumor activation of neutrophils; however, the role of tumor ...
