Therapeutics of Extracellular Vesicles in Cardiocerebrovascular and Metabolic Diseases
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2023;1418:187-205. doi: 10.1007/978-981-99-1443-2_13.ABSTRACTExtracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale membranous vesicles containing DNA, RNA, lipids, and proteins, which play versatile roles in intercellular communications. EVs are increasingly being recognized as the promising therapeutic agents for many diseases, including cardiocerebrovascular and metabolic diseases, due to their ability to deliver functional and therapeutical molecules. In this chapter, the biological characteristics and functions of EVs are briefly summarized. Importantly, the current state of applying EVs in the prevention and tr...
