Abstract: The invention relates generally to cell-derived vesicles (CDVs), such as CD Vs from myoblast, wherein the parent cells have been subjected to pulsed electromagnetic field and wherein the vesicles are isolated from the parent cells using actin cytoskeletal disruptors, such as cytochalasin B. The CDVs are enriched for Transient Receptor Potential Channel 1 (TRPC1). The invention further relates to the uses of the CDVs as therapeutic agents in conditions associated with disruptive metabolism and inflammation; for instance, cancer.

Abstract: Systems and methods for applying a pulsed electromagnetic fields. A system for applying a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) to a cell, comprising: a sensor for obtaining a characteristic of the cell; a memory module having stored therein a plurality of characteristics and PEMF efficacy window data, each characteristic having its corresponding PEMF efficacy window data; a pulse generator coupled to a set of PEMF coils and configured to generate an output of electrical pulses to drive the set of PEMF coils; and a controller in communication with the sensor, the memory module and the pulse generator, wherein the controller is configured to: retrieve, from the memory module, the PEMF efficacy window data that corresponds to the characteristic of the cell obtained by the sensor; and control the output of the pulse generator based on the retrieved PEMF efficacy window data such that the set of PEMF coils apply a PEMF in accordance with the PEMF efficacy window data.
