Precise nanosizing with high dynamic range holography [PDF]
Optical sensing is one of the key-enablers of modern diagnostics. Especially label-free imaging modalities hold great promise as they eliminate labeling procedures prior to analysis. However, scattering signals of nanometric particles scale with their volume-square.

Metalloproteinases in extracellular vesicles
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

Extracellular Vesicles—Connecting Kingdoms [PDF]
It is known that extracellular vesicles (EVs) are shed from cells of almost every type of cell or organism, showing their ubiquity in all empires of life. EVs are defined as naturally released particles from cells, delimited by a lipid bilayer, and cannot replicate. These nano- to micrometer scaled spheres shuttle a set of bioactive molecules.

Modelling cellular spreading and emergence of motility in the presence of curved membrane proteins and active cytoskeleton forces [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells adhere to extracellular matrix during the normal development of the organism, forming static adhesion as well as during cell motility. We study this process by considering a simplified coarse-grained model of a vesicle that has uniform adhesion energy with a flat substrate, mobile curved membrane proteins and active forces.

Therapeutic Potential of Extracellular Vesicles [PDF]
Extracellular vesicles (EV) have emerged as important mediators of intercellular communication. By their origin, we can find vesicles derived from plasma membrane such as microvesicles, ectosomes, and membrane particles or exosomes, which originate in the endosomal membrane compartment.

Extracellular vesicle signalling in atherosclerosis [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is a major cardiovascular disease and in 2016, the World Health Organisation (WHO) estimated 17.5 million global deaths, corresponding to 31% of all global deaths, were driven by inflammation and deposition of lipids into the arterial wall.

The End-to-End Molecular Communication Model of Extracellular Vesicle-based Drug Delivery [PDF]
A closer look at nature has recently brought more interest in exploring and utilizing intra-body communication networks composed of cells as intrinsic, perfectly biocompatible infrastructures to deliver therapeutics. Naturally occurring cell-to-cell communication systems are being manipulated to release, navigate, and take up soluble cell-derived ...
