This #EMmonday we’re looking at microvesicle release from inner segments of #photoreceptors. #TEM image shows microvesicle next to endocytic, clathrin-coated pit.

Microvesicle release from inner segments of healthy photoreceptors is a conserved phenomenon in mammalian species

Summary: Healthy photoreceptor cells release extracellular vesicles directly from their inner segment compartment. This process appears to be amplified in some photoreceptor degenerative models for disposal of mistrafficked proteins.
