Ribovski, L. (author), Joshi, B. (author), Gao, J. (author), Zuhorn, Inge S. (author)Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are natural micro-/nanoparticles that play an important role in intercellular communication. They are secreted by producer/donor cells and subsequent uptake by recipient/acceptor cells may result in phenotypic changes in these cells due to the delivery of cargo molecules, including lipids, RNA, and proteins. The...review 2023
