Book Extracellular Vesicles and Their Importance in Human Health

Download or read book Extracellular Vesicles and Their Importance in Human Health written by Ana Gil De Bona and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-03-04 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extracellular vesicle is a wide term that involves many different types of vesicles. Almost all the cell types studied secrete vesicles to the extracellular environment related to cell - cell communication. Extracellular vesicles have been found in different biological fluids, such as blood, milk, saliva, tears, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. These vesicles transport different molecules, including mRNA, proteins, and lipids, some of them cell type specific that make them ideal biomarkers in both health and disease conditions. However, their contribution to different conditions is not well understood. The aim of this book is to provide an overview of the extracellular vesicles in the human body, how they are internalized, and their participation in several diseases.

Book Emerging Concepts of Tumor Exosome   Mediated Cell Cell Communication

Download or read book Emerging Concepts of Tumor Exosome Mediated Cell Cell Communication written by Huang-Ge Zhang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-06 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In multicellular organisms, communication between cells involves secretion of proteins that bind to receptors on neighboring cells. While this has been well documented, another mode of intercellular communication has recently become the subject of increasing interest: the release of exosomes. In cancer, tumor exosomes are involved in various aspects of pathogenesis, including proliferation, immunosuppression, and metastasis. Given the ability of exosomes to export unneeded endogenous molecules from cells, these structures hold great potential as anticancer therapeutic agents. They are also being studied as prognostic markers for cancer.
