Extracellular vesicles are small vesicles (or membrane-bound organelles) that can be found in blood and other biofluids and their internal content and surface reflect their origin and potential function. Extracellular Vesicles: Mechanisms and Role in Health and Disease begins with a summary of the most recent findings about the potential role of extracellular vesicles in human health and diseases and discusses future directions. The authors discuss how intercellular communication at the developing feto-maternal interface is of cardinal interest. The implantation itself is at least partially-dependent on extracellular vesicles' mediated processes. Furthermore, the altered local and systemic immunomodulatory state seems to be significantly influenced by proteomic and nucleic acid cargo found in extracellular vesicles. Lastly, recent studies in the development of metastatic potential are studied by focusing on the role of oxidative stress under the control of reprogrammed onco-metabolism using the LNCaP-C4-2B prostate cancer progression model system.
