“…Recent studies (reviewed in (Sadovska, 2015)) have demonstrated that after intravenous injection, the half-lives of EVs were only 2-5 min and already after 5-10 min EVs were found in the spleen, lung, liver, bone marrow, adipose tissue, and lymph nodes (Takahashi et al, 2013;Saunderson et al, 2014;Bala et al, 2015;Wiklander et al, 2015). Thus, those organs may accumulate EV after injection into the blood stream and, besides, a significant portion of EV could be absorbed by the macrophages present in those organs (Saunderson et al, 2014;Imai et al, 2015).…”
