Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The isolation and proteomics characterization of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from body fluids is challenging due to their vast heterogeneity. We have recently demonstrated that Fluorescence-activated Cell Sorting (FACS) efficiently isolates the whole EV circulating compartment directly from untouched body fluids enabling a comprehensive EV proteomics analysis. RESULTS: Here, we characterized, for the...
