Glycomic insights into microvesicle biogenesis

Cells can mediate intercellular communication by the secretion and uptake of microvesicles, nano-sized membranous particles that carry signaling molecules, antigens, lipids, mRNA and miRNA between cells. The biological function of these vesicles is dependent upon their composition and cellular origi...
