During the last decade, there has been great interest in elucidating the biological role of
extracellular vesicles (EVs), particularly, their hormone-like role in cell-to-cell …

Extracellular vehicles (EVs) are a heterogeneous group of cell and membranous particles
originating from different cell compartments. EVs participate in many essential physiological …

The ability of exosomes to transport different molecular cargoes and their ability to influence
various physiological factors is already well known. An exciting area of research explores …

Globally, gestational diabetes (GDM) is increasing at an alarming rate. This increase is
linked to the rise in obesity rates among women of reproductive age. GDM poses a major …

Homeostatic regulation of the maternal milieu during pregnancy is critical for maternal and
fetal health. The placenta facilitates critical communication between maternal and fetal …

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the commonest medical complication of pregnancy.
The association of GDM with immediate pregnancy complications including excess fetal …

The mechanisms underpinning maternal metabolic adaptations to a healthy pregnancy and
in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that …

Serving as the interface between fetal and maternal circulation, the placenta plays a critical
role in fetal growth and development. Placental exosomes are small membrane-bound …

Exosomes are 40–100 nm nanovesicles participating in intercellular communication and
transferring various bioactive proteins, mRNAs, miRNAs, and lipids. During pregnancy, the …
