Hypothesis-generating for exosome-mediated cardio-endothelial metabolic coupling; requires human validation before any translational consideration.
Do cardiomyocyte-derived exosomes modulate glucose transport and metabolism in endothelial cells?
Cardiomyocyte-derived exosomes act as a cardio-endothelial communication system by transferring glucose transporters and glycolytic enzymes to endothelial cells during glucose deprivation, enhancing metabolic activity.
García et al. (2015) studied this question.
