  2. 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.

  3. 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 ]

    Vesicles can also fuse with other organelles within the cell. A vesicle released from the cell is known as an extracellular vesicle. Vesicles perform a variety of functions. Because it is separated from the cytosol, the inside of the vesicle can be made to be different from the cytosolic environment. For this reason, vesicles are a basic tool ...

  6. Microvesicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microvesicle

    Microvesicles (ectosomes, or microparticles) are a type of extracellular vesicle (EV) that are released from the cell membrane. [1] In multicellular organisms, microvesicles and other EVs are found both in tissues (in the interstitial space between cells) and in many types of body fluids. [2]

  7. Exocytosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exocytosis

    Transient vesicle fusion is driven by SNARE proteins, resulting in release of vesicle contents into the extracellular space (or in case of neurons in the synaptic cleft). The merging of the donor and the acceptor membranes accomplishes three tasks: The surface of the plasma membrane increases (by the surface of the fused vesicle).

  8. Extracellular matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracellular_matrix

    The animal extracellular matrix includes the interstitial matrix and the basement membrane. [7] Interstitial matrix is present between various animal cells (i.e., in the intercellular spaces). Gels of polysaccharides and fibrous proteins fill the interstitial space and act as a compression buffer against the stress placed on the ECM. [8]

  9. 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]
