Infected erythrocyte-derived extracellular vesicles alter vascular function via regulatory Ago2-miRNA complexes in malaria

Inflammatory response to malaria pathogen Plasmodium falciparumcan be triggered by infected red blood cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs). This study shows these EVs contain functional microRNA-Argonaute 2 complex that modulates gene expression and alter vascular barrier properties.
