Cover Story: Schematic diagram illustrates a human alpha-1 antitrypsin (hAAT)-engineered MSC secreting extracellular vesicles that contain hAAT. Upper-left: hAAT-MSC. Lower-right: exosome. Red irregular shapes indicate hAATs. The tetraspanin proteins on the membrane of the exosome are CD9, CD63, and CD81. The diagram is illustrated by Jennifer Lee, Wellesley College. The title of the article is “Proteomic Analysis of Exosomes Secreted from Human Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Overexpressing Mesenchymal Stromal Cells", by Hua Wei and colleagues from the Medical University of South Carolina. View this paper
