Metalloproteinases in extracellular vesicles

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2017
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as pivotal mediators of intercellular communications in local and distant microenvironments under patho/physiological conditions. EVs contain bioactive materials such as proteins, RNA transcripts, microRNAs and even DNAs, and recent work on their protein profiles has revealed the existence of metalloproteinases

Greasing wheels of cell-free therapies for cardiovascular diseases: Integrated devices of exosomes/exosome-like nanovectors with bioinspired materials

open access: yesExtracellular Vesicle, 2022
Mortality and morbidity of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) including ischemic heart disease (IHD) and heart failure (HF) are arising worldwide. Once cardiomyocyte is impaired, it is challenging to regenerate which is largely limited by the irreversibility

Ambient but not local lactate underlies neuronal tolerance to prolonged glucose deprivation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Neurons require a nearly constant supply of ATP. Glucose is the predominant source of brain ATP, but the direct effects of prolonged glucose deprivation on neuronal viability and function remain unclear.

Complex RNA world in small extracellular vesicles for liquid biopsy in cancer management

open access: yesExtracellular Vesicle, 2022
Liquid biopsy is a valuable tool in oncology with its advantages of non-invasiveness, longitudinal sampling, and capturing the intra- and inter-tumor heterogeneity. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are released by cells into various biological fluids,

Extracellular Vesicles as Regulators of the Extracellular Matrix

open access: yesBioengineering, 2023
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membrane-bound vesicles secreted into the extracellular space by all cell types. EVs transfer their cargo which includes nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids to facilitate cell-to-cell communication. As EVs are released and move from parent to recipient cell, EVs interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM) which ...

Extracellular Vesicles in Human Milk [PDF]

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Milk supports the growth and development of infants. An increasing number of mostly recent studies have demonstrated that milk contains a hitherto undescribed component called extracellular vesicles (EVs). This presents questions regarding why milk contains EVs and what their function is. Recently, we showed that EVs in human milk expose tissue factor,
