Abstract excerpt
Tumor cells shed an abundance of extracellular vesicles (EVs) to body fluids containing bioactive molecules including DNA, RNA, and protein. Investigations in the field of tumor-derived EVs open a new horizon in understanding cancer biology and its potential as cancer biomarkers as well as platforms for personalized medicine. This study demonstrates that successfully isolated EVs from plasma and bronchoalveolar...
