Extracellular vesicles could be personalized drug delivery vehicles

Creating enough nanovesicles to inexpensively serve as a drug delivery system may be as simple as putting the cells through a sieve, according to an international team of researchers who used mouse autologous immune cells to create large amounts of fillable nanovesicles to deliver drugs to tumors in mice.
