High‐fat diets: You are what you eat….your extracellular vesicles too!
Sophie Rome,
Stefano Tacconi
Abstract:Recent works indicate that the lipid composition of extracellular vesicles (EVs) can modify their biological functions and their incorporation into recipient cells. In particular high‐fat diets affect EV biogenesis, EV lipid composition, EV targeting and consequently the cross‐talk between tissues. This review connects different research topics to show that a vicious circle is established during the development of high‐fat diet‐induced obesity, connecting the alteration of lipid metabolism, the composition of … Show more
