| 32730952 | Surface functionalization of exosomes for target-specific delivery and in vivo imaging & tracking: Strategies and significance. | The specific exosomal membrane proteins such as tetraspanins (CD63, CD81, CD9), lactadherin (LA), lysosome associated membrane protein-2b (Lamp-2b) and, glycosyl-phosphatidyl-inositol (GPI) involved in functionalization of exosome surface have also been discussed along with different strategies of surface modification like genetic engineering, covalent modification (click chemistry and metabolic engineering of parent cells of exosomes) and non-covalent modification (multivalent electrostatic interactions, ligand-receptor interaction, hydrophobic interaction, aptamer based modification and modification by anchoring CP05 peptide) along with optical (fluorescent and bioluminescent) and radioactive isotope labelling techniques of exosomes for imaging purpose. |
| 32767662 | Exosomal lncRNA H19 promotes the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma treated with Propofol via miR-520a-3p/LIMK1 axis. | Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot were performed to detect the expression of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) H19, microRNA-520a-3p (miR-520a-3p), LIM domain kinase 1 (LIMK1), metastasis-associated markers (Snail, Twist, Vimentin and E-cadherin) and exosome markers (CD9 and CD81). |
| 32793278 | Plasma Small Extracellular Vesicles Derived miR-21-5p and miR-92a-3p as Potential Biomarkers for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Screening. | The exosomes were isolated by precipitation with a reagent based on polyethylene glycol and were characterized based on morphological aspects (i.e., diameter); molecular weight; CD63, CD9, and CD81 protein markers; and exosomal miR-21-5p and miR-92a-3p expression levels. |
| 32822875 | Altered level of plasma exosomes in patients with Gaucher disease. | We found that the EVs were enriched with the surface exosomal markers (CD9, СD63, CD81) and an exosome-associated protein HSP70 in case of the patients with the disease. |
| 32841894 | Insight into the proteomic profiling of exosomes secreted by human OM-MSCs reveals a new potential therapy. | A total of 304 exosome-associated proteins were identified by LC-MS/MS, including plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (SERPINE 1), insulin-like growth factor binding protein family members (IGFBP 4 and 5), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 2 (NOTCH 2), apolipoprotein E (APOE), and heat shock protein HSP90-beta (HSP90AB1). Similar to other exosomes, OM-MSC exosomes were CD63- and CD81-positive and calnexin-negative. |
| 32984039 | Extracellular Vesicles Reflect the Efficacy of Wheatgrass Juice Supplement in Colon Cancer Patients During Adjuvant Chemotherapy. | EVs were found to be similar by size and concentration with reduced levels of exosome markers (CD81) on samples at the end of combined treatment (chemotherapy and WGJ). |
| 33023058 | Anti-Tumor Effects of Exosomes Derived from Drug-Incubated Permanently Growing Human MSC. | Similar to growth-limited human primary cultures of mesenchymal stroma/stem-like cells (MSC), the continuously proliferating human MSC544 cell line produced extracellular vesicles as characterized by expression of the tetraspanin molecules CD9, CD63, and CD81. |
| 33037627 | Effects of exercise on exosome release and cargo in in vivo and ex vivo models: A systematic review. | The literature has primarily shown an exercise-driven increase in exosome markers (Alix, CD63, CD81, and Flot-1), along with other exosome-carried proteins, into circulation. |
| 33051156 | Polymer fraction including exosomes derived from Chinese hamster ovary cells promoted their growth during serum-free repeated batch culture. | PF contained CD81-positive exosomes and proteins, both of which were necessary for its growth-promoting activity. |
| 33106473 | Decreased mitochondrial electron transport proteins and increased complement mediators in plasma neural-derived exosomes of early psychosis. | Neural mitochondrial electron transport and complement proteins were extracted, quantified by ELISAs and normalized with levels of CD81 exosome marker. |
