Extracellular vesicles are membrane-bound particles released by cells that serve as crucial mediators of intercellular communication, carrying proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Their ...

A new algorithm analyses membrane shape to extract forces applied by ... The intracellular compartments, for example vesicles and organelles, define the spatial organization of metabolic pathways ...

Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells produce minute (40-1000 nm) membrane vesicles that are released into the local environment. These extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, ...

By influencing calcium homeostasis, local protein synthesis and the endoplasmic reticulum, a small protein called Rab10 emerges as a crucial cytoplasmic regulator of neuropeptide secretion.
