Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Alpaca is a South American camelid, particularly present in Peruvian highlands, where oxygen concentration and atmospheric pressure are very low. Due to this fact, gestational physiology has adapted to preserve the conceptus’ and mother’s health. In this

From Exosome Glycobiology to Exosome Glycotechnology, the Role of Natural Occurring Polysaccharides
Polysaccharides, 2021 Exosomes (EXOs) are nano-sized informative shuttles acting as endogenous mediators of cell-to-cell communication. Their innate ability to target specific cells and deliver functional cargo is recently claimed as a promising theranostic strategy.

Journal of Biomedical Science, 1996 Glycoconjugates play important roles in biological reactions (for example sialyl Lewis(x) in 'homing' of leukocytes and mannose-6-phosphate in targeting of lysosomal enzymes) and thus aberration in carbohydrate structures in glycoconjugates can lead to abnormal biological behaviors. In fact, glycoconjugates expressed on the surfaces of tumor and cancer
