01

Overview

Extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated intercellular communication is a process by which cells exchange information through the release and uptake of membrane-bound vesicles. EVs carry a diverse array of bioactive molecules—including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and metabolites—between cells, thereby influencing recipient cell behavior in both physiological and pathological contexts. This communication is involved in various biological functions and is implicated in multiple diseases, making it a potential therapeutic target and source of biomarkers.
