Extracellular vesicles (EVs) serve as drug delivery platforms that are, in some cases, superior to synthetic nanoparticles. 1 EVs comprise lipid bilayer-enclosed cytoplasmic content and naturally include membraneassociated proteins, several of which have been used for engineering and cargo loading. Since some of these proteins are limited by meager cellular expression and low EV density, Dooley et al. 2 (in this issue of Molecular Therapy) at Codiak BioSciences rigorously sought membrane-associated proteins that are highly expressed and enriched in EVs and thus well suited for novel applications in EV engineering. They identify members of the EWI immmunoglobulin and MARCKS families that appear to be strikingly versatile “scaffolds” for loading cargo ranging from cytokines to Cas9 to antigens. Furthermore, they bioengineer the top candidates for stability and test them in vivo. 2The delivery potential of EVs has been recognized since EV studies first coalesced into a field. Prototypes for EV engineering were presented in 2005 at the first international meeting on EV biology, organized by Rose Johnstone. With the goal of “targeted delivery of vesicles bearing new ligands or antibodies to specific tissues,” Delcayre et al. 3 of Anosys expressed soluble proteins as fusions with the C1C2 domain of lactadherin (MFGE8). Lactadherin traffics to the endosomal compartment in certain cells and is incorporated into EVs of the multivesicular body, known upon release as “exosomes”(in contrast to plasma membrane-derived “ectosomes”). This “exosome display” technology was used to decorate EVs with the HIV-1 Nef protein, interleukin 2 (IL-2), and granulocyte/monocyte colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), with retention of biological activity and opportunities for eliciting immune responses.
