  • Title: Exosomes Isolation, Purification, and Characterization.
    Author: Ranjan P, Verma SK.
    Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2024; 2835():173-180. PubMed ID: 39105916.
    Abstract:
    Exosomes are double-layered lipid membranous nanovesicles that are endosomal in origin and secreted by almost all cells. They are 30-130 nm in size and contain various molecular signatures such as miRNAs, mRNAs, DNA, lipids, and proteins. Due to their highly heterogeneous content, exosomes have a major role in influencing cellular physiology and pathology. Although exosome research has been in progress for a long time, its biomedical applications have recently been expanding due to its bio-friendly nature. However, the most challenging part is its isolation to obtain quality exosomes with good yield. Therefore, in this chapter, we have described appropriate protocols for exosome isolation and characterization along with alternative purification methods.
