Reovirus can exit cells in association with extracellular vesicles
Our study provides evidence that nonenveloped reovirus particles can exit cells as free particles or in association with extracellular vesicles. Shown is a negative-stain electron micrograph of an extracellular vesicle, approximately 600 nm in diameter, released from a reovirus-infected murine fibroblast. Associated reovirus particles, approximately 80 nm in diameter, are visible. Smith et al. 2024
