Abstract excerpt
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-enclosed structures that mediate intercellular communication by transferring diverse cargoes, including RNA and proteins. SHANK3, a synaptic scaffolding protein critical for synapse structure and function, is implicated in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Phelan-McDermid Syndrome (PMS). Early hyperexcitability in cortical neurons is a characterized endophenotype in...
