Panel discussion: Advanced Flow Cytometry for Exosome Characterization
Overview
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanometer-scale membranous particles which can carry and deliver a wide range of loads, including genetic material and proteins.
Advanced flow cytometry has improved understanding of the role of EVs as intercellular messengers in both physiology and pathology, through its use in detection and characterization.
Approaches for studying small particles vary, and development of standardized protocols for comparison between researchers should be considered.
Vera Tang (University of Ottawa), Jennifer C. Jones (National Cancer Institute), and Edwin van der Pol (Amsterdam University Medical Centers), discuss their work on the development of methods for identifying exosomes through flow cytometry.
