Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer mortality in women. Despite advance in its management, the identification of new options for early stage...

A new study, affiliated with UNIST has unveiled the mechanisms involved in the liver metastasis of breast cancer, thanks to the three-dimensional (3D) organ-on-a-chip that mimics human liver functions...

According to a study by The Wistar Institute, breast cancer cells starved for oxygen send out messages that induce oncogenic changes in surrounding normal epithelial cells. These messages are packaged into particles called extracellular vesicles (EVs) and reprogram mitochondrial shape ...

Exosomes are produced by normal and cancer cells. Exosomes are found in the serum of cancer patients and have been used for diagnosis and prognosis. Recently tears from non-cancer patients have been found to contain exosomes. In the present report ...

Researchers at the University of Genoa aimed to explore the involvement of miRNAs in beneficial effects exerted by physical activity in breast cancer prevention.The levels of extracellular miRNAs were evaluated in blood plasma before and after structured...

Exosomes are cell-derived nanovesicles released into biological fluids, which are involved in cell-to-cell communication. The analysis of the content and the surface of the exosomes allow conclusions about the...

Tumor-derived circulating exosomes have been recognized as a promising biomarker source for cancer diagnosis via a less invasive procedure. The integration of isolation and detection of exosomes in...

Exosomes are nanosized membranous vesicles secreted by a variety of cells. Due to their unique and pharmacologically important properties, cell-derived exosome nanoparticles have drawn significant interest for drug development. By genetically modifying exosomes with two distinct types of surface-displayed monoclonal ...

Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, with a morbidity rate of 27.8% and a mortality rate of 15% among women population worldwide. Understanding how this cancer develops and the mechanisms behind tumor progression and chemoresistance is of utmost importance. Exosomes ...

Breast cancer is a high prevalence cancer among women worldwide. 15-20% of breast cancer cases are triple-negative with a poor prognosis. miRNA aberrant expression is one of the reasons of cancer development and metastasis. Exosomes are vesicles...
