In the body fluids, there are various cell and tissue products, including exosomes and extracellular nanovesicles which function as a medium of communication between cells. Exosomes enclose genetic
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
