Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced during oxidative metabolism in aerobic
organisms. Under normal conditions, ROS production and elimination are in a relatively …

Exosomes are small, round vesicles in the 30 and 120 nm diameter range released by all
living cell types. Exosomes play many essential functions in intercellular communication and …

The last decade has seen a sharp increase in the number of scientific publications
describing physiological and pathological functions of extracellular vesicles (EVs), a …

Rationale: Exercise training, in addition to reducing cardiovascular risk factors, confers direct
protection against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and has been associated with …

This review analyzes the relationship between microvesicles and reactive oxygen species
(ROS). This relationship is bidirectional; on the one hand, the number and content of …

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized vesicles with a lipid bilayer that are released from
cells of the cardiovascular system, and are considered important mediators of intercellular …

The past decade has witnessed an exponential increase in the number of publications
referring to extracellular vesicles (EVs). For many years considered to be extracellular …

Rationale: A rapid and massive influx of inflammatory cells occurs into ischemic area after
myocardial infarction (MI), resulting in local release of cytokines and growth factors. Yet, the …

Background—Repair of the endothelium after vascular injury is crucial for preserving
endothelial integrity and preventing the development of vascular disease. The underlying …

Cell–cell communication has proven to be even more complex than previously thought since
