Abstract
Extracellular vesicles are known for intercellular signaling roles but can also serve to simply dispose of unwanted cargoes. In this issue, Bostelman and Broihier discuss new work from Rodal and colleagues (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202405025) that refutes prior work by showing that extracellular vesicles at Drosophila neuromuscular junctions are not required for signaling and instead likely serve a proteostasis role.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Cell Biology (JCB) is a comprehensive journal dedicated to publishing original discoveries across all realms of cell biology. We invite papers presenting novel cellular or molecular advancements in various domains of basic cell biology, along with applied cell biology research in diverse systems such as immunology, neurobiology, metabolism, virology, developmental biology, and plant biology. We enthusiastically welcome submissions showcasing significant findings of interest to cell biologists, irrespective of the experimental approach.
