A study from the IVECAT group (led by Geivex founder Dr. Francesc E Borràs) B-ARGO and RCPB groups at IGTP has shown the potential of using an agarose-spot migration assay to analyse the chemoattractant capacity of Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) in vitro. The study has been recently published in BMC Biology. Increasing evidence suggests that cancer […]
Read MoreJust published in the Journal of Extracellular Biology, guidelines to work with EVs in parasitic diseases lead by Carmen Fernandez-Becerra, Martin Olivier and Ana Claudia Torrecilhas, in collaboration with several international groups. In this position paper, the authors have covered the methods for the isolation and molecular characterization of EVs obtained from parasite-infected cell cultures, […]
Read MoreJust published in The Journal of Extracellular Biology from the group of Dr Yáñez-Mó, in collaboration with Agarose Bead Technologies (ABT). Authors have studied the agarose parameters that define the resolution in size exclussion chromatography to acieve better isolation of EVs from lipoproteins. Congrats to all authors!

Read MoreA great work just published in The Journal of Extracellular Vesicles from the group of Dr Marcilla. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by the helminths Dicrocoelium dendriticum and Fasciola hepatica are important modulators of the host immune response, contributing to the establishment of the infection. Monocytes and, in particular, macrophages are major regulators of the inflammatory response and are likely […]
Read MoreThis is an article published in Frontiers in Immunology, as part of the Research Topic:Extracellular Vesicles in Inflammatory Responses and Inflammation-AssociatedDiseases. Researchers from the Dept of Cellular Biology and Immunology, Institute ofParasitology and Biomedicine Lopez-Neyra (IPBLN), CSIC, Granada, present a studyof extracellular vesicles (EV). They analyze the protein composition, proteinabundance, and functional clustering of EV […]
Read MoreThe standardization of clinical studies using extracellular vesicles (EVs) has mainly focused on the procedures employed for their isolation and characterization; however, preanalytical aspects of sample collection, handling and storage also significantly impact the reproducibility of results. We conducted an online survey based on SPREC (Standard PREanalytical Code) among members of GEIVEX (Grupo Español de […]
