Brain endothelium-derived extracellular vesicles containing amyloid-beta induce mitochondrial alterations in neural progenitor cells.

is carried out by brain endothelium-derived EVs, which can affect NPC differentiation and induce mitochondrial dysfunction, leading to aberrant neurogenesis. This has pathological implications because NPCs growing into neurons are incorporated into cerebral structures involved in learning and memory, two common phenotypes affected in AD and related dementias.
