Linked Claims

Claim 1implicationsupports2018Source 1DOIPubMed

Fusion events involving endogenous endosomal secretory machinery may increase the pathogenic potential and radius of action of pathogenic cargoes carried by exogenous exosomes.

Claim 2mechanismsupports2018Source 1DOIPubMed

Exogenous exosomes isolated from rTg4510 mouse brains are internalized by recipient neurons and then passed on to another interconnected neuron.
