Extracellular Vesicle Crosstalk in Tumor Microenvironments
Quick fact
EVs are so stable in bodily fluids that they can be isolated from a simple blood sample, making them a promising 'liquid biopsy' for cancer detection and monitoring.
Why this is interesting
Every second, your cells release millions of microscopic packages that act as messengers. But what if those messengers are being hijacked to set the stage for cancer's invasion?
