Emerging role of neuronal exosomes in the central nervous system

AbstractExosomes are small extracellular vesicles, which stem from endosomes fusing with the plasma membrane, and can be recaptured by receiving cells. They contain lipids, proteins and RNAs able to modify the physiology of receiving cells. Functioning of the brain relies on intercellular communicat...
