Bovine milk contains extracellular vesicles (EVs), which act as mediators of intercellular communication by regulating the recipients' cellular processes via their selectively incorporated bioactive molecules. Because some of these EV components are evolutionarily conserved, EVs present in commercial milk might have the potential to regulate cellular processes in human consumers.
