Scientific Reports, 2021 HIV and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are both associated with gut microbiota alterations, low-grade endotoxemia and increased cardiovascular risk. We investigated the potential role of plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs) in relation to these processes.

Extracellular Vesicles as Regulators of the Extracellular Matrix
Bioengineering, 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]
Pharmaceuticals, 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,

Extracellular Vesicles in Angiogenesis
Circulation Research, 2017 During the past decade, extracellular vesicles (EVs), which include apoptotic bodies, microvesicles, and exosomes, have emerged as important players in cell-to-cell communication in normal physiology and pathological conditions. EVs encapsulate and convey various bioactive molecules that are further transmitted to neighboring or more distant cells ...

Extracellular vesicles and aging [PDF]
Stem Cell Investigation, 2017 Aging and the chronic diseases associated with aging place a tremendous burden on our healthcare system. As our world population ages dramatically over the next decades, this will only increase. Hence, there is a great need to discover fundamental mechanisms of aging to enable development of strategies for minimizing the impact of aging on our health ...

Considerations for the Analysis of Small Extracellular Vesicles in Physical Exercise
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Physical exercise induces acute physiological changes leading to enhanced tissue cross-talk and a liberation of extracellular vesicles (EVs) into the circulation.

LifeTrypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, undergoes epimastigogenesis—a critical differentiation step in which trypomastigotes transform into epimastigotes. While this process is essential for the parasite’s survival in its insect vector,
