ABSTRACT

Milk is a source of nutrition for people of every age group. Beyond nutrition, milk provides multiple health benefits that are conferred by the bioactive components present in milk. One such bioactive component is the milk small extracellular vesicles (mEVs), endogenous nanoparticles synthesized by mammary epithelial cells and immune cells in the udder and released in milk. They have been studied as nutraceuticals in different diseases. Also, they are efficiently used as drug delivery vehicles due to their low immune response, enhanced uptake and bioavailability. Thus, further studies in the field of mEVs may open novel avenues for economic growth and development of farmers by connecting them with the pharmaceutical industries.
