Amplified Extracellular Vesicles Generation Triggered by Peptide

This webinar introduces a novel invention using intercellular polymerization of a synthetic peptide precursor to amplify the generation of extracellular vesicles (EVs). While EVs could be advanced therapeutic agents for future medicine, a simple methodology for enhanced EV generation is not currently available. This study showed that by simply adding small peptides to therapeutic cells, the production of EVs in the cells was greatly enhanced when peptide polymerization was activated by enzymes.
