Senescence. It’s a beautiful-sounding word whose tones suggest it should be a perfume or an essential oil. But that’s not ...

The numerous cells that make up mammalian tissues are surrounded by an intricate network of proteins known as the extracellular matrix (ECM). Together, these proteins provide cells with a structural ...

This graphic illustrates paracrine adhesion signaling on small extracellular vesicles, which secretes a protein called galectin-3, which promotes endocytosis so the vesicle can be absorbed into the ...

Extracellular vesicles are tiny spheres that cells release to send molecules or messages to other cells, often as a means of seeding cancer elsewhere in the body. In a new study, researchers found ...

A new international study led by Prof. Carmit Levy of the Department of Human Genetics and Biochemistry at the Gray Faculty ...

Researchers at the Karolinska Institute have succeeded in delivering targeted cancer treatment via extracellular vesicles (EVs), the small membrane bubbles that our cells use to communicate. Using ...
