Contribution of Small Extracellular Vesicles from Schwann Cells and Satellite Glial Cells to Pain Processing
Parisa Gazerani
Abstract:Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, are membrane-bound particles released by cells into extracellular space. These vesicles carry various molecules, such as proteins and lipids, and can serve as mediators of intercellular communication. EVs have been implicated in the communication between different cell types in the nervous system, for instance, the neurons and glial cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). Satellite glial cells (SGCs) surr… Show more
