Colorectal cancer cell-derived microvesicles are enriched in cell cycle-related mRNAs that promote proliferation of endothelial cells
25 Nov 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Various cancer cells, including those of colorectal cancer (CRC), release microvesicles (exosomes) into surrounding tissues and peripheral circulation. These microvesicles can mediate communication between cells and affect various tumor-related processes in their target cells. RESULTS: We present potential roles of CRC cell-derived microvesicles in tumor progression via a global comparative...
