Designs and main types of EEV. (A) Modified EV design strategies: Nucleic acids, proteins, and drugs are loaded into EV cargo, or antibodies, peptides, phospholipids, and special materials are used to modify the EV membrane. (B) - (D) Biomimetic EV design strategies: (B) Nanoparticles wrapped by EV membrane (using EV membrane to wrap synthetic nanoparticles), (C) natural-artificial hybrid EVs (neural EVs recombined with synthetic or biological system components), (D) EV-mimicking nanoparticles (created using proteins and lipids to imitate the structure of natural EVs). Abbreviations: EV: extracellular vesicles. Figure created with BioRender.com
