Extracellular vesicles and their therapeutic applications: a review article (part 2).

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as a fascinating area of research in molecular biology, with diverse therapeutic applications. These small membrane-bound structures, released by cells into the extracellular space, play a crucial role in intercellular communication and hold great potential for advancing medical treatments. The aim of this study is to have a narrative review on the use and therapeutic applications of EVs.

Exploring the seas for cancer cures: the promise of marine-derived bioactive peptide.

Marine environments harbor a wealth of bioactive peptides with potential anticancer properties, sourced from diverse organisms like tunicates, sea sponges, and mollusks. Through isolation, identification, and modification, peptides such as Stylisin and Papuamides have shown enhanced activity and progressed to clinical trials, underscoring their therapeutic promise. Enzymatic hydrolysis emerges as a favored method for peptide extraction from marine proteins, with sponges identified as particularly rich sources.
