Abstract:
Exosomes are small membrane vesicles approximately 40-100 nm in diameter released by a variety of cell types.Exosomes contain proteins, lipids, mRNA and microRNA, and play important roles in intercellular communication.This article reviews the sources, general features and biological function of exosomes, as well as its possible role and mechanism in the pathophysiology and neurological recovery of ischemic stroke.
