Exosomes are cellular components with promising uses in cancer diagnostics and therapeutics, and their imaging and tracking are essential to study their...

Despite their great potential, the nano-sized extracellular vesicles are yet to become effective delivery systems for poorly water-soluble drugs. Here, researchers from Deakin University present...

The development of life-threatening cancer metastases at distant organs requires disseminated tumour cells’ adaptation to, and co-evolution with, the drastically different microenvironments of metastatic sites. Cancer cells of common origin manifest distinct gene expression patterns after metastasizing to different organs. ...

Cancer development is a multistep process in which exosomes play important roles. Exosomes are small vesicles formed in vesicular bodies in the endosomal network. The major role of exosomes seems to be the transport of bioactive molecules between cells. Depending ...
