Abstract
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles that play a crucial role in intercellular communication.
- Exosomes transmit cellular information through proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.
- They may influence various physiological and pathological responses.
- Features such as low immunogenicity and ability to cross the blood-brain barrier make exosomes promising for diagnostics and drug delivery.
- Current challenges include inadequate isolation techniques and poor characterization of exosomes.
- Research is ongoing to address these limitations and advance therapeutic applications.
