Exosome Biochemistry and Advanced Nanotechnology for Next-Generation Theranostic Platforms.

TL;DR: It is highly expected that the better and clearer elucidation of the fundamental principles for advanced nanotechnology in constructing exosome‐based theranostic nanoplatforms, as well as integrating the intrinsic advantages of exosomes as endogenous cell‐derived nanocarriers with the advanced design methodology of traditional nanomedicine, will help to unlock the innate powers ofExosomes for the establishment of next‐generation theranostics.

Exosome-mediated transfer of mRNAs and microRNAs is a novel mechanism of genetic exchange between cells

TL;DR: It is shown that exosomes contain both mRNA and microRNA, which can be delivered to another cell, and can be functional in this new location, and it is proposed that this RNA is called “exosomal shuttle RNA” (esRNA).

Delivery of siRNA to the mouse brain by systemic injection of targeted exosomes

TL;DR: It is shown that exosomes—endogenous nano-vesicles that transport RNAs and proteins—can deliver short interfering (si)RNA to the brain in mice, and the therapeutic potential of exosome-mediated siRNA delivery was demonstrated by the strong mRNA and protein knockdown of BACE1, a therapeutic target in Alzheimer's disease, in wild-type mice.
