MicroRNAs are minor constituents of extracellular vesicles that are rarely delivered to target cells.

Mammalian cells release different types of vesicles, collectively termed extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs contain cellular microRNAs (miRNAs) with an apparent potential to deliver their miRNA cargo to recipient cells to affect the stability of individual mRNAs and the cells' transcriptome. The...
