Exploring the role of Arrcd4 in extracellular vesicle biogenesis and its implications in tissue homeostasis [ 2017 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Sharad Kumar (Principal investigator) ,  Dr Suresh Mathivanan

Brief description Most cells in the body release small packages known as extracellular vesicles (or EVs in short), which carry proteins and other cellular material. EVs transport important cellular messages required for the everyday function of cells and play crucial roles both in normal wellbeing and disease. This proposal will investigate how EVs are formed, how they select their protein content and how they contribute to the maturation of some cell types in the body.
