How extracellular vesicles can enhance drug delivery

When Lydia Alvarez-Erviti started her postdoctoral studies at the University of Oxford, UK, in 2008, her goal was to develop gene therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. She had identified her target — α-synuclein, a protein that accumulates in the brains of people with Parkinson’s disease — and designed a short interfering RNA (siRNA) to reduce the […]

Microvesicles From Indoxyl Sulfate-Treated Endothelial Cells Induce Vascular Calcification in vitro

Vascular calcification (VC), an unpredictable pathophysiological process and critical event in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), is the leading cause of morbi-mortality and disability in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients worldwide. Currently, no diagnostic method is available for identifying patients at risk of VC development; the pathology is detected when the process is irreversible. Extracellular […]

Extracellular vesicles play an important role in the pathology of malaria vivax

Plasmodium vivax is the most widely distributed human malaria parasite, mostly outside sub-Saharan Africa, and responsible for millions of clinical cases yearly, including severe disease and death. The mechanisms by which P. vivax causes disease are not well understood. Recent evidence suggests that, similar to what has been observed with the more lethal P. falciparum, red blood cells infected […]

Vesicles Shed by Pathological Murine Adipocytes Spread Pathology: Characterization and Functional Role of Insulin Resistant/Hypertrophied Adiposomes

Un posible marcador da obesidade nas vesículas extracelulares Científicos do IDIS de Santiago conclúen que as vesículas liberadas por adipocitos obesos e diabéticos inducen estas patoloxías en adipocitos sans. O redescubrimento das vesículas extracelulares (pequenas estruturas liberadas por todas as células do organismo), debido ao papel tan importante que xogan tanto nos procesos fisiolóxicos normais como en […]
