35903297Cancer-Associated Exosomal CBFB Facilitates the Aggressive Phenotype, Evasion of Oxidative Stress, and Preferential Predisposition to Bone Prometastatic Factor of Breast Cancer Progression.The human mammary fibroblast cells HMF3A and fibroblasts derived from patient samples cocultured with exosomes had increased Our results revealed that CBFB may promote bone metastasis in patients with breast cancer. We used an online database to analyze the expression and prognostic value of core binding factor subunit Circulating exosomes from patients with breast cancer metastasis to the bone were rich in CBFB.
36108271Wharton jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cell exosomes induce apoptosis and suppress EMT signaling in cervical cancer cells as an effective drug carrier system of paclitaxel.In addition, exosomes CD9, CD63, and CD81 markers were checked by western blot.
36183939Biogenesis and release of endothelial extracellular vesicles: Morphological aspects.Lastly, we could show that TNF-α stimulation of AoEnd cells leads not only to the upregulation of CD44 in parental cells, but also to incorporation of CD44 into the membranes of generated MVs and exosomes.
36463112CD44 promotes angiogenesis in myocardial infarction through regulating plasma exosome uptake and further enhancing FGFR2 signaling transduction.Subsequently, we found that CD44 mediated the activation of the FGFR2 signaling pathway as well as the caveolin 1-dependent uptake of exosomes in vascular endothelial cells.
36472010[Proteomics analysis of Astragalus polysaccharide on TLR4-activated lung cancer cell-derived exosomes].Key differential proteins mainly included plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, laminin α5, laminin α1, and CD44, indicating that tumor cells underwent systemic changes in different states and were reflected in exosomes in the inflammatory microenvironment.
37600336CD44‑hyaluronan axis plays a role in the interactions between colon cancer‑derived extracellular vesicles and human monocytes.No abstract available
38612385Comparison of Extracellular Vesicles from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Brain Cells.Of the 31 exosome surface markers analyzed, a subset of biomarkers were significantly enriched in astrocytes (CD29, CD44, and CD49e), microglia-like cells (CD44), and neural stem cells (SSEA4).
38902710Exosomes multiplex profiling, a promising strategy for early diagnosis of laryngeal cancer.Circulating exosomes were collected from serum collected from 30 LCa patients and 20 healthy volunteers by the use of antibody affinity method exploiting CD63 specific surface marker.
38942135IGFBP6 regulates extracellular vesicles formation via cholesterol abundance in MDA-MB-231 cells.In this study, we demonstrated that the knockdown of the IGFBP6 gene, a highly selective inhibitor of IGF-II, led to a significant decline in the number of secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs) and altered cholesterol metabolism in MDA-MB-231 cells.
39166055Dental pulp stem cells regenerate neural tissue in degenerative disorders and stroke rehabilitation: A scope systematic review.DPSC-derived exosomes suppressed the expression of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and TGF, key mediators of nerve tissue inflammation.
