Mitochondrial genome transfer drives metabolic reprogramming in adjacent colonic epithelial cells promoting TGFβ1-mediated tumor progression
30 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
Although nontumor components play an essential role in colon cancer (CC) progression, the intercellular communication between CC cells and adjacent colonic epithelial cells (CECs) remains poorly understood. Here, we show that intact mitochondrial genome (mitochondrial DNA, mtDNA) is enriched in serum extracellular vesicles (EVs) from CC patients and positively correlated with tumor stage. Intriguingly, circular...
