... conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases. Depending on the stimulus received, microglia cells dynamically change their phenotype releasing specific soluble factors and largely modify the cargo of their secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs). Despite the mechanisms at the basis of microglia actions have...

...Hannah Clemmens; Daniel W. Lambert Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a heterogeneous group of small lipid-enclosed structures with myriad roles in physiology and disease. The recent surge of interest in EVs has led to greater understanding of their biology and appreciation of how they might...

...Jameel M. Inal; Una Fairbrother; Sheelagh Heugh The important roles of extracellular vesicles in the pathogenesis of various diseases are rapidly being elucidated. As important vehicles of intercellular communication, extracellular vesicles, which comprise microvesicles and exosomes, are revealing...

..., is also very abundant on other types of extracellular vesicles [ 10 ] suggests that other extracellular vesicles would, in vivo , also bear this antigen. Thus the increased efficiency of immune responses induced by the modified antigen in vivo could not be specifically attributed to its secretion...
