Objectives To analyze the expression of genes involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) biogenesis and remodeling in vaginal tissue of women with clinically normal pelvic floor support (defined as ...

Plants produce an astonishing variety of chemical substances. Most of these metabolites are involved in chemical communication and serve to defend against pests, protect against pathogens, and ...

Various terms, including P-EVs, edible plant-derived nanovesicles, plant-derived nanovesicles, and plant exosome-like nanovesicles, have been used to describe these nano-to micro-sized vesicles ...

Rapid and portable profiling of surface proteins on small extracellular vesicles (sEV) is crucial for noninvasive cancer screening but remains technically challenging. Here, we present a Tyndall ...

The current research models of breast cancer are usually limited in their capacity to recapitulate the tumor microenvironment in vitro. The lack of an extracellular matrix (ECM) oversimplifies ...
