By analysing tumour-derived material circulating in blood, urine, or other body fluids, liquid biopsies offer a minimally invasive window into cancer biology in real time. Among the various analytes being explored, including circulating tumour cells (CTCs) and cell-free DNA (cfDNA), extracellular vesicles (EVs) are emerging as particularly compelling biomarker candidates.
A landmark study defines the protein and lipid signatures that distinguish authentic small extracellular vesicles in human plasma.
How TFF works, filter formats compared, and why EVlution belongs on your bench
EVlution, a new affordable bench top Tangential Flow Filtration (TFF) system launches today. It makes scalable, reproducible extracellular vesicle purification accessible to more laboratories, accelerating innovation in EV research and translational development.
Embryo implantation is a tightly timed conversation between embryo and endometrium; one that has to coordinate adhesion, immune tolerance, tissue remodelling, and blood-vessel changes within a narrow window of implantation. A major set of words in that conversation are extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes; nano-sized packages released by cells that carry proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids (like miRNAs) to influence recipient cells.
