  2. Exosome (vesicle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exosome_(vesicle)

    Exosomes, ranging in size from 30 to 150 nanometers, [1] are membrane-bound extracellular vesicles (EVs) that are produced in the endosomal compartment of most eukaryotic cells. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] In multicellular organisms , exosomes and other EVs are found in biological fluids including saliva , blood , urine and cerebrospinal fluid . [ 5 ]

  3. Vesicle (biology and chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesicle_(biology_and...

    Matrix vesicles are located within the extracellular space, or matrix. Using electron microscopy , they were discovered independently in 1967 by H. Clarke Anderson [ 20 ] and Ermanno Bonucci. [ 21 ] These cell-derived vesicles are specialized to initiate biomineralisation of the matrix in a variety of tissues, including bone , cartilage and ...

  4. Extracellular vesicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracellular_vesicle

    Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited particles [1] that are naturally released from almost all types of cells but, unlike a cell, cannot replicate. EVs range in diameter from near the size of the smallest physically possible unilamellar liposome (around 20-30 nanometers) to as large as 10 microns or more, although the vast majority of EVs are smaller than 200 nm.

  5. Microvesicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microvesicle

    Exosomes are formed by invagination within a cell to create an intracellular vesicle called an endosome, or an endocytic vesicle. In general, exosomes are formed by segregating the cargo (e.g., lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) within the endosome.

  6. Endomembrane system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endomembrane_system

    It is a phase-dark body that is composed of an aggregation of membrane-bound vesicles containing cell wall components, serving as a point of assemblage and release of such components intermediate between the Golgi and the cell membrane. The spitzenkörper is motile and generates new hyphal tip growth as it moves forward.

  7. Golgi apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_apparatus

    The Golgi apparatus (/ ˈ ɡ ɒ l dʒ i /), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. [1] Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, it packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination.

  8. Stem cell secretome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell_secretome

    The Extracellular Vesicles are small partials that are normally discharged and have boundaries that are formed by a lipid bilayer. Although cells can replicate, extracellular vesicle is not able to. In the extracellular vesical, things that consist of the stem cell secretome and are being packed are organelles, mRNA, miRNA, and proteins. [4]

  9. Synthetic exosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_exosome

    Exosomes are small vesicles secreted by cells that play a crucial role in intercellular communication. They contain a variety of biomolecules, including proteins , nucleic acids and lipids , which can be transferred between cells to modulate cellular processes. [ 1 ]
