Cardiomyocyte progenitor cell-derived exosomes stimulate migration of endothelial cells
Patients suffering from heart failure as a result of myocardial infarction are in need of heart transplantation. Unfortunately the number of donor hearts is very low and therefore new therapies are subject of investigation. Cell transplantation therapy upon myocardial infarction is a very promising strategy to replace the dead myocardium with viable cardiomyocytes, smooth muscle cells and endot...
متن کاملExosomes: current knowledge of their composition, biological functions, and diagnostic and therapeutic potentials.
BACKGROUND Cells continuously secrete a large number of microvesicles, macromolecular complexes, and small molecules into the extracellular space. Of the secreted microvesicles, the nanoparticles called exosomes are currently undergoing intense scrutiny. These are small vesicles (30-120 nm) containing nucleic acid and protein, perceived to be carriers of this cargo between diverse locations in ...
متن کاملPlacenta-derived exosomes: potential biomarkers of preeclampsia
Preeclampsia remains a leading cause of maternal and fetal mortality, due to ineffective treatment and diagnostic strategies, compounded by the lack of clarity on the etiology of the disorder. Although several clinical and biological markers of preeclampsia have been evaluated, they have proven to be ineffective in providing a definitive diagnosis during the various stages of the disorder. Exos...
متن کاملFunctions and Therapeutic Roles of Exosomes in Cancer
The role of exosomes in cancer development has become the focus of much research, due to the many emerging roles possessed by exosomes. These micro-vesicles that are ubiquitously released in to the extracellular milieu, have been found to regulate immune system function, particularly in tumorigenesis, as well as conditioning future metastatic sites for the attachment and growth of tumor tissue....
متن کاملPurification, characterization and biological significance of tumor-derived exosomes.
Exosomes are nanovesicles that are released into the extracellular environment during the fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane. Exosomes released from dendritic cells, dexosomes, have several biological functions, for example as immunostimulants. Some tumor cells also secrete exosomes (Tu-exosomes). Although experimental data obtained with the use of dexosomes suggest a biol...
