Ischemic stroke remains a leading global cause of disability and mortality, and a major challenge in stroke treatment is "reperfusion injury"—where return of blood flow causes oxidative stress and ...

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

The central nervous system (CNS) is governed by complex intercellular communication networks that extend beyond traditional synaptic signaling. Soluble ...

All cells, from bacteria to mammalian cells, produce extracellular vesicles—tiny membrane-enclosed packages of bioactive cargo. 1 Until relatively recently, scientists believed these organic ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny biological bubbles that carry nucleic acids and proteins between cells, playing an essential role in tissue repair, neuroprotection and immune health. By ...

A new study describes a key molecular mechanism that explains how cells exchange information through extracellular vesicles (EVs), small particles with great therapeutic potential. The results, ...

Efficient intracellular delivery of macromolecular therapeutics remains a major barrier to the clinical translation of biologic modalities. The Liu Lab studies how extracellular vesicles (EVs) can be ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny membrane-bound particles released by cells to transport proteins and other molecules to neighboring cells. Because of this natural delivery ability, EVs have ...

A research team at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI) and the Faculty of Medicine at Kanazawa University has developed a new class of engineered extracellular vesicles (EVs) capable of ...

Senescence. It’s a beautiful-sounding word whose tones suggest it should be a perfume or an essential oil. But that’s not even close. Senescence is the loss of a cell’s power to divide and grow, thus ...
