The way EVs target specific cells or tissues. Different donor cells and injection methods affect EVs targeting. Secreted EVs often have the characteristics of parent cells, so most EVs choose to home to cells or tissues that are histologically similar. Most EVs reach the liver via intravenous injection, the adipose tissue via intraperitoneal injection, specific sites such as tumors via local injection, and the intestine via oral administration. Select EVs donor cells and injection methods according to different needs. (Created with BioRender.com.)
