Abstract

A rapidly growing body of experimental evidence has begun to shed light on the wide ranging molecular mechanisms which modulate intra- and inter-cellular communications. A substantial quantity of the available knowledge has only been uncovered in recent years, and we are learning that donor cells release nanovesicles, known as exosomes, which regulate the cellular behavior of recipient cells following uptake. Based on the impressive capacity of exosomes in delivering their "payload", different therapeutic agents, are currently being tested using this delivery method for more effective therapy. This review summarizes the most recent developments in exosome bioactivities and discusses the biochemical nature of exosomes and their biogenesis. It also summarizes the use of exosomes as delivery vehicles for drugs and natural compounds to the targeted site.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
