Extracellular Vesicles: A New Prospective in Crosstalk between Microenvironment and Stem Cells in Hematological Malignancies by Ilaria Laurenzana, Daniela Lamorte, Stefania Trino, Luciana De Luca, Concetta Ambrosino, Pietro Zoppoli, Vitalba Ruggieri, Luigi Del Vecchio, Pellegrino Musto, Antonella Caivano, Geppino Falco

“…The transfer of EV molecular cargo triggers different responses in target cells; in particular, malignant EVs modify the BM environment in favor of neoplastic cells at the expense of normal HSCs, by interfering with antineoplastic immunity and participating in resistance to treatment. Here, we review the role of EVs in BM cell communication in physiological conditions and in HMs, focusing on the effects of BM niche EVs on HSCs and MSCs.…”

Justice sensitivity of youth with different levels of income as an actual socio-psychological problem by A. S. Dementiev, N. A. Tsvetkova

“…Four roles that a person can occupy in situations subjectively perceived as unfair (a ‘victim’ – the injustice is committed towards them; a ‘witness’ – they observe injustice towards another people; a ‘beneficiary’ – a person benefits from the situation of injustice towards another one; a ‘violator’ – they act unfairly) have been characterized. A review of domestic and foreign studies of the relationship among sensitivity to justice and other personality characteristics, carried out over the past five years on various samples, has been given. …”
