Extracellular vesicles are vital for intercellular communication. If your laboratory research involves isolating these membrane-derived, cargo-bearing structures, download comprehensive exosome and microvesicle markers poster from GeneTex. This visual resource from GeneTex details the specific proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids essential for accurate identification and analysis in preclinical research.

What are exosomes and microvesicles?

Exosomes and microvesicles are highly diverse groups of extracellular vesicles. They are membrane-derived structures secreted by cells that carry specific cargo—such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids—serving as an important mode of intercellular communication and biomarker transfer.

Why use specific markers for extracellular vesicles?

To accurately differentiate between various types of extracellular vesicles, researchers must rely on highly specific biomarkers. Using this reference poster helps your lab team:

• Identify Origin: Distinguish exosomes from microvesicles based on cellular biogenesis pathways.

• Analyze Cargo: Map out specific protein, lipid, and nucleic acid signatures.

• Enhance Reproducibility: Utilize strictly validated markers for consistent preclinical research outcomes.
