Impact of Chemotherapy on Extracellular Vesicles: Understanding the Chemo-EVs
Chemotherapy is the standard go-to treatment for cancer besides surgery and radiation. It has recently come to light that the interaction between chemotherapy and the immune system is important in maintaining tumor immunity as well as influencing the ...

On activation cells shed vesicles from their surface by the process of ectocytosis. These micro-vesicles or Ectosomes express phosphatidyl-serine (PS) on their surface, which can elicit a range of biological effects from immune-suppression to the activation of the clotting and complement pathways.

Nanoparticle tracking analysis monitors microvesicle and exosome secretion from immune cells.
Nanoparticle tracking analysis permits the determination of both the size distribution and relative concentration of microvesicles, including exosomes, in the supernatants of cultured cells and biological fluids.

Microvesicle Shedding and Lysosomal Repair Fulfill Divergent Cellular Needs during the Repair of Streptolysin O-Induced Plasmalemmal Damage [PDF]
Pathogenic bacteria secrete pore-forming toxins that permeabilize the plasma membrane of host cells. Nucleated cells possess protective mechanisms that repair toxin-damaged plasmalemma.

Urinary microvesicles: a window into the kidney
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing concern in aging populations. CKD is characterized by two hallmark symptoms: a decline in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and albuminuria. Early changes in kidney function are notoriously underdiagnosed, suggesting the need for new noninvasive diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of

Extracellular vesicles in multiple sclerosis: what are they telling us?
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-bound particles secreted by almost all cell types. They are classified depending on their biogenesis and size into exosomes and microvesicles or according to their cell origin.
