Biogenesis and release of EVs. Invagination into endosome to form multi-vesicular bodies (MVBs). MVBs fuse with plasma membrane, then exosomes are secreted into extracellular space. Microvesicles are released from plasma membrane with surface protein from cells. Exosomes and microvesicles are affiliated with EVs. EVs derived from cells contribute to cell communication, cell signaling and diagnosis
