Extracellular Vesicles in Cancer Immunotherapy: Comparison
Please note this is a comparison between Version 2 by Conner Chen and Version 1 by Valentina Cauda.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are natural particles formed by lipid bilayers and released from almost all cell types to the extracellular environment both under physiological conditions and in presence of a disease. EVs are involved in many biological processes including intercellular communication, acting as natural carriers in the transfer of various biomolecules such as DNA, various RNA types, proteins and different phospholipids. Thanks to their transfer and targeting abilities, they can be employed in drug and gene delivery and have been proposed for the treatment of different diseases, including cancer.

  • extracellular vesicles
  • cancer vaccine
