Taking EV characterization to the next level with ONI’s Nanoimager
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are known for their role in facilitating wide range of intercellular communication such as regulation of the immune response and stem cells differentiation.
What is an extra-cellular vesicle?
EVs are membrane-enclosed particles ranging in size from 30nm to 300nm and their characteristic depend on the cell type releasing them. Often they will carry cargo of active molecules like RNA, DNA, proteins, metabolites and lipids. Moreover, EVs can be found in most biological fluids with the ability to cross biological barriers, and in the case of pathological conditions, the composition of the cargo will be distinctive to the disease. Altogether, these features have led to intense research into the potential role of EVs for diagnostics, biomarkers and as vehicles for drug delivery. [Read more…]
