Schematic representation of EVs biogenesis. Vesicles bud directly from the plasma membrane, whereas exosomes originate from ILVs that are generated by inward budding of the limiting membrane of a subgroup of late endosomes called multivesicular bodies (MVBs). MVBs can be directed towards the cell periphery and, after fusion with the plasma membrane, release their content into the extracellular space. miRNA microRNA, MSC mesenchymal stromal cell
