What Are Exosomes?
The Benefits of Stem Cells without the Cells
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles, or small packets, released from cells, especially from stem cells. They act as shuttles for certain genetic information and proteins to other cells. They allow for cell-to-cell communication.
Age, chronic disease, environmental factors, and genetic disorders can interfere with how our stem cells communicate with other cells, thus disrupting the healing process. Exosomes play a key role in the regulation of these communication processes.
