Unlocking the Secrets of Extracellular Vesicles

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-enclosed particles naturally released by cells in the body. EVs are thousands of times smaller than a cell and they are present in body fluids such as blood, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, and urine. Analysis of EVs provides minimally invasive and novel biomarkers from easy accessible body fluids or “liquid biopsies”

Overcoming the Detection Barrier

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are subcellular in size and therefore are too small to be detected with routine laboratory instruments. In blood, EVs are vastly outnumbered by lipoproteins, further complicating their characterization. For EVs to become reliable cardiovascular biomarkers, their identification and quantification require robust standardization, calibration, and clinical validation
