A number of putative angiogenic factors such as basic fibroblast growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, interleukins, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), are expressed in head and ...

The most successful drug or cell therapies are often mechanistically simple and work through a single molecule or cell type. But broadly speaking, when we consider more complex diseases—heart disease, ...

Cells produce various types of extracellular vesicles (EVs) that serve for short-range cell-to-cell communication in our bodies. As these EVs are usually less than one micrometer in size, the ...

This graphic illustrates paracrine adhesion signaling on small extracellular vesicles, which secretes a protein called galectin-3, which promotes endocytosis so the vesicle can be absorbed into the ...
