Minimal information for studies of extracellular vesicles 2018 (MISEV2018): a position statement of the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles and update of the MISEV2014 guidelines (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract

In response to the rapid expansion of research into extracellular vesicles (EVs) and the complexities involved in studying them, the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) has revised its Minimal Information for Studies of Extracellular Vesicles (MISEV) guidelines. The new MISEV2018 guidelines integrate updated knowledge and emphasize the need for rigorous reporting of experimental conditions, as well as functional characterization of EVs to support claims about their biological roles. This document includes essential protocols and a checklist to facilitate transparency and reproducibility in EV research.
