Features and Benefits
Bulk Space-Saving Format: Ideal for laboratories with limited space, facilitating easier inventory management and optimizing storage and handling.Comprehensive Exosome Profiling: Enables detailed characterization of exosomal content.Versatile Application: This panel can be applied to various research categories, including cancer, inflammation, infectious diseases, immune response, and tumor markers. Purity Testing with Additional Panels: The option to use the MILLIPLEX® Human Apolipoprotein 6-Plex Panel to test the purity of extracellular vesicle (EV) preparations. This additional testing capability allows researchers to verify the quality of their exosome preparations, ensuring that the results from the characterization panel are based on pure and uncontaminated samples.
General description
Cells release extracellular vesicles (EV), including exosomes, as part of normal physiological processes including removal of waste and regulation of intercellular communication. Furthermore, increased exosome release has been implicated in the progression of various disease states and other abnormalities such as cancer and neurodegeneration. Exosome identification, classification, and differentiation from other extracellular vesicles is often complicated due to the variability in isolation and preparation protocols, exosome biogenesis, as well as exosome source. Commonly associated exosome-enriched markers include tetraspanins CD9, CD63, and CD81, cargo sorting-associated markers TSG101 and Flotillin-1, and biogenesis marker syntenin-1. Other markers, including Ago2, GAPDH, and Calreticulin, may or may not be found in exosome-enriched samples, but this can vary depending on source, isolation method, and/or EV biogenesis mechanism.
