Low-Power Sonication Can Alter Extracellular Vesicle Size and Properties (2021)
Journal Article
Nizamudeen, Z. A., Xerri, R., Parmenter, C., Suain, K., Markus, R., Chakrabarti, L., & Sottile, V. (2021). Low-Power Sonication Can Alter Extracellular Vesicle Size and Properties. Cells, 10(9), Article 2413. https://doi.org/10.3390/cells10092413

Low-power sonication is widely used to disaggregate extracellular vesicles (EVs) after isolation, however, the effects of sonication on EV samples beyond dispersion are unclear. The present study analysed the characteristics of EVs collected from mes... Read More about Low-Power Sonication Can Alter Extracellular Vesicle Size and Properties.

Live Simultaneous Monitoring of Mineral Deposition and Lipid Accumulation in Differentiating Stem Cells (2019)
Journal Article
De Melo, N., McGinlay, S., Markus, R., Macri-Pellizzeri, L., Symonds, M. E., Ahmed, I., & Sottile, V. (2019). Live Simultaneous Monitoring of Mineral Deposition and Lipid Accumulation in Differentiating Stem Cells. Biomimetics, 4(3), 1-10. https://doi.org/10.3390/biomimetics4030048

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are progenitors for bone-forming osteoblasts and lipid-storing adipocytes, two major lineages co-existing in bone marrow. When isolated in vitro, these stem cells recapitulate osteoblast or adipocyte formation if treated...
