Cracking Open Bacterial Membrane Vesicles [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Membrane vesicles (MVs) are nanoparticles composed of lipid membranes that are produced by both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. MVs have been assigned diverse biological functions, and they show great potential for applications in various fields.

Cell membrane-derived vesicles for delivery of therapeutic agents
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2021 Cell membranes have recently emerged as a new source of materials for molecular delivery systems. Cell membranes have been extruded or sonicated to make nanoscale vesicles. Unlike synthetic lipid or polymeric nanoparticles, cell membrane-derived vesicles

Probiotic membrane vesicles: emerging tools for disease treatment. [PDF]
Microbiome Res RepProbiotics are widely recognized for their health benefits, particularly in disease prevention and treatment. Recent research suggests that their therapeutic effects may be linked to the bacterial membrane vesicles (bMVs) they release. These nanoscale vesicles, secreted during probiotic growth and metabolism, facilitate intercellular communication ...

Outer membrane vesicle vaccines [PDF]
Seminars in Immunology, 2020 Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMV) have received increased attention in recent years as a vaccine platform against bacterial pathogens. OMV from Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B have been extensively explored. Following the success of the MeNZB OMV vaccine in controlling an outbreak of N.

Secretory vesicles are preferentially targeted to areas of low molecular SNARE density [PDF]
, 2012 Intercellular communication is commonly mediated by the regulated fusion, or exocytosis, of vesicles with the cell surface. SNARE (soluble N-ethymaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) proteins are the catalytic core of the secretory ...

Regulation of synaptic vesicle docking by different classes of macromolecules in active zone material. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The docking of synaptic vesicles at active zones on the presynaptic plasma membrane of axon terminals is essential for their fusion with the membrane and exocytosis of their neurotransmitter to mediate synaptic impulse transmission.
