Abstract: Described herein are compositions and techniques related to generation and therapeutic application of engineered extracellular vesicles. Engineered extracellular vesicles are vesicles (i.e., exosomes) comprising at least one engineered fusion polypeptide further comprising a vesicle targeting domain, scaffold linker domain, and signaling domain (i.e., a multi-effector signaling domain) wherein the signaling domain targets and interacts with a biological target, such as cell surface receptors. Said engineered fusion proteins can be organized in genetic vector constructs, expressed in mammalian cells, wherein the vesicle targeting domains anchor to extracellular vesicles such as exosomes, thereby presenting their joined multi-effector signaling domain which can relay a signal to target cells. Engineered extracellular vesicles adopt the hallmark biophysical and biochemical features of extracellular vesicles, allowing for rapid deployment and scale-up.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions and techniques related to generation and therapeutic application of artificial synapses. Artificial synapses are engineered extracellular vesicles, including exosomes, which incorporate sticky binders on their surface to anchor signaling domains against biological targets, such as receptors. These engineered additives can be organized in genetic vector constructs, expressed in mammalian cells, wherein the sticky binders attach to extracellular vesicles such as exosomes, thereby presenting their joined signaling domains which are rapidly taken up by recipient cells. Artificial synapses adopt the hallmark biophysical and biochemical features of extracellular vesicles, allowing for rapid deployment and scale-up. Importantly, this strategy can allow for kinetically favorable signal generation and signal propagation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an elastic mold for holding and freezing a liquid. The mold is constructed of unitary construction and comprises of one or more walls and a base, wherein said one or more walls form a compartment. A plurality of protrusions extend upwards from said base. The liquid held in said elastic is frozen into the shape of a test tube rack.
