But also some immune cells have a very active release of these little packages, vesicles we call them, that are filled with, again, all these different molecules.
In the blood, you find large numbers of these exosomes, and that's where they're usually purified from.
Different cells have different cargo in these vesicles, and it seems that they function to some extent to deliver information from one cell to another.
It's still a very new field, but people explore whether they can be used for treatment purposes, but also for diagnostic purposes.
Do they tell you something about a specific organ or a tumor that is developing?
So when we measure these proteins that we talked about earlier in the blood, we actually measure what's in the exosomes also.
So these exosomes, they float basically like immune cells.
They float in the blood and we open them up and we measure what's inside.
A very difficult question.
I mean, you could ask the same question about
any chemical that we invent and we put into food or we get exposed to right the you know the plastic we you know we drink out of cups hot stuff out of a cup that is coated with plastic and you know we're full of plastic how is that going to change our lifespan it hasn't in a in a
measurable way so far, right?
But we don't know what's going to happen in 20, 30 years.
Or if people synthesize a compound that is detrimental, it doesn't look detrimental.
It has been tested and is safe.
But as you said, if it accumulates maybe or in combination with other stuff, it may be detrimental.
Yeah, if you go down that route, you know, it drives you crazy and you could, you know, sort of...
not do anything anymore or not eat anything.
Maybe not the lake, but there's still fountains with groundwater where you can drink in any village, basically.
Right, yeah.
