Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of the Special Issue "New Progress in Extracellular Vesicles" is to provide an up-to-date overview of the latest advances in the field of extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs are small, membrane-bound structures that are released by cells and carry a wide range of biological molecules, including proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in understanding the roles of EVs in several biological processes, such as intercellular communication, immunity, or specific diseases such as cancer.
This Special Issue will cover a broad range of topics related to EV research, including the isolation and characterization of EVs, the mechanisms of EV biogenesis and uptake, and the functional roles of EVs in disease pathogenesis and therapeutic applications, with a focus on regenerative medicine. Articles that highlight new techniques and technologies for studying EVs, such as single-particle analysis and high-throughput sequencing, are also welcome.
Overall, the Special Issue provides a comprehensive and timely overview of the rapidly evolving field of EV research and will be of interest to researchers from different fields, including cell biology, immunology, oncology and drug discovery.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
