Extracellular vesicles help cancer cells communicate with surrounding stromal cells, and targeted protein degradation may disrupt this signaling network to suppress tumor growth...

Targeted suppression of extracellular vesicles disrupted tumor-stroma communication, reprogrammed cancer-associated fibroblasts...

Exosomes are small membrane vesicles with a size ranging from 40-100nm. They can serve as functional mediators in cell interaction leading to cancer metastasis. Most studies of the pathogenesis of metastasis focus on genetic or phenotypic changes of the cancer ...

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) comprise the majority of the tumor bulk of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). Current efforts to eradicate these tumors focus predominantly on targeting the proliferation of rapidly growing cancer epithelial cells. We know that this is largely ineffective ...
