Scientists haven’t had a precise way to arrange and study surface-bound extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) as they guide cell behavior. Researchers developed LEVA, which uses patterned ...

Researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) have created the world’s simplest artificial cell capable of chemical navigation, migrating toward specific substances like living ...

Most cells in the body send out little messengers called extracellular vesicles that carry proteins, lipids, and other ...

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 ...

A new study reveals that vesicles packed with healthy mitochondria can supercharge tissue repair and combat chronic disease, paving the way for next-generation regenerative treatments. Study: ...
