Prostasomes are heterogeneous regarding size and appearance but affiliated to one DNA‐containing exosome family

26 Apr 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Prostate acinar epithelial cells release microvesicles (prostasomes) that possess pleiotropic biological effects relevant for successful fertilization. Prostasomes are formed in a similar way as exosomes but are heterogeneous as regards size and appearance. Like exosomes they are thought to be mediators of intercellular communication. METHODS: We prepared seminal prostasomes in accordance with the...
