Destination: Exosomes A growing number of stem cell companies are seeing the light and shifting their focus to exosome products. An interesting mixture of companies are lining up to follow Exopharm’s lead and begin human clinical trials of therapeutic exosome candidates. At least three exosome companies are aiming to start clinical trials during 2020, and […]

What Are Exosomes and Why Are Exosomes Important?
What Are Exosomes and Why Are Exosomes Important? What Are Exosomes? Definition of Exosomes Exosomes are defined as nanometre-sized vesicles, being packages of biomolecules ranging from 40-150 nanometres in size that are released by virtually every cell type in the body. Once thought to be a kind of refuse disposal system for cells, exosomes are […]
The New Science of Aging: Winding Back the Body Clock
The New Science of Aging: Winding Back the Body Clock Human age reversal has jumped from pure science fiction to research reality. Until very recently, the idea of age reversal and rejuvenation in humans was not a topic discussed in serious scientific circles. The idea was, at best, highly speculative. At worst it was the […]
Turning Back the Body Clock With Exosomes
Turning Back the Body Clock With Exosomes New research reinforces the possibility that exosomes derived from stem cells can bring the body back into a more healthful, youthful state. Two recent publications highlight the growing relevance of exosomes to aging. One report highlights that the aging of humans is associated with an accelerating decline in […]
Exosomes: Tiny Particles with Big Potential
The Potential of Exosomes Exosomes are moving toward clinical use in numerous and diverse ways There are around 37 trillion cells in a human body—and like any collective of diverse individuals they rely upon constant communication to work together. Just over a decade ago a research team in Sweden published in Nature Cell Biology a […]
The Power of Exosome Therapy in Regenerative Medicine
Understanding regenerative medicine’s point-of-difference Companies testing exosome-based therapies are developing completely new ways to tackle the wide array of medical conditions that afflict us in old age. Exosomes from stem cells are an emerging regenerative medicine that could disrupt the way age-related degeneration is treated, including problems such as cardiovascular disease, neurodegeneration, osteoporosis and erectile […]
Exosomes and Therapeutic Research
Exosome Therapeutic Research Emerging from the Lab The more we study these naturally produced packets of biomolecules, the more therapeutic use they seem to lend themselves to be. Exosomes, pro-healing nanoparticles found naturally in the body, are a new potential paradigm in healthcare that could assist in every step we take through life. In their […]
The Next Big Thing: Exosomes versus Stem Cells
Exosomes vs Stem Cells: Exosomes as the Next Big Thing after Stem Cell Therapy The exosomes (or ‘extracellular vesicles’) released by stem cells may be the disruptive therapy for tackling age-related diseases doctors and patients have been waiting for. Despite over a decade and a half of hope and hype, stem cell therapy has failed […]
