In order to treat and/or control a disease or prevent its occurrence, first of all, physiological pathways must be understood very well. In the previous 10 years, there has been a lot of interest in the function of exosomes in intercellular communication, particularly in studies on cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. This has led to plenty of research in this area. Exosomes are tiny transmembrane vesicles that are produced by endocytosis and are found in a variety of bodily fluids, including blood, saliva, cerebrospinal fluid, and breast milk. They are also released by a variety of tissues. Exosomes have a varied composition depending on where they come from, but they are often rich in cytosolic and cell surface proteins, lipids, DNA, and RNA. In recent years, the interactions between exosomes and the immune system have been frequently studied. However, despite all the researches, the physiological purposes of exosomes are still largely unclear. |
