Exosome biogenesis starts with the endocytosis and early endosome (EE) formation. In addition to extracellular cargo that gets to the EE, it receives cargo and protein from the trans-face of the Golgi network (TGN). The cargo undergoes meticulous surveillance and multivesicular body (MVB) containing the intraluminal vesicles (ILV). The cargo that should be degraded is trafficked toward the lysosome while the exosomes are carried on SNARE proteins to help it dock on the cytoplasmic membrane to be excreted as exosomes
