Exosomes

Exosomes are small, membrane-bound particles that are released from various cell types. They are the main mode of intercellular communication, carrying a variety of molecules from the producing cell to the cells they interact with. Exosomes have been demonstrated to play a role in many physiological and pathological processes, including inflammation, cell-to-cell communication, and disease progression. They are also being studied for their potential use in diagnostics and therapeutic applications, such as drug delivery and cancer immunotherapy.
