Human pancreatic cancer cell exosomes, but not human normal cell exosomes, act as an initiator in cell transformation
27 May 2019
Abstract excerpt
Cancer evolves through a multistep process that occurs by the temporal accumulation of genetic mutations. Tumor-derived exosomes are emerging contributors to tumorigenesis. To understand how exosomes might contribute to cell transformation, we utilized the classic two-step NIH/3T3 cell transformation assay and observed that exosomes isolated from pancreatic cancer cells, but not normal human cells, can initiate...
