GVs composed of phospholipids are attracting attention as cell models because their constituent molecules, structure, and size resemble those of cell membranes. In the last decade, with the development of GV preparation methods, functionalized GVs that sense a stimulus as an input and can give a corresponding output have been reported as new medical molecular devices. This technical report overviews the applicability of GVs. Corresponding author: Taro Toyota   This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
