Exosomes: new targets for understanding axon guidance in the developing central nervous system.

Front Cell Dev Biol

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Tropical Translational Medicine and Ministry of Education, Hainan Academy of Medical Sciences, Hainan Medical University, Haikou, China.

Axon guidance is a key event in neural circuit development that drives the correct targeting of axons to their targets through long distances and unique patterns. Exosomes, extracellular vesicles that are smaller than 100 nm, are secreted by most cell types in the brain. Regulation of cell-cell communication, neuroregeneration, and synapse formation by exosomes have been extensively studied.
