Extracellular Vesicles as Communicators Between Cells - A Role in Cancer Dissemination

Explore the role of tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (TEVs) in cancer metastasis and pre-metastatic niche formation in this 31-minute webinar presented by Dr. Laurence Blavier Sarte. Delve into groundbreaking research on the endogenous release of TEVs in mice implanted with metastatic human melanoma and neuroblastoma cells. Discover how GFP-tagged EVs are captured by host cells and contribute to the spread of cancer. Learn about the transfer of human exosomal miR-1246 to mouse macrophages and the presence of TEVs in blood over time after tumor implantation. Gain insights into the kinetics of pre-metastatic niche formation and the potential implications for cancer diagnosis and treatment. This webinar offers valuable knowledge for researchers and professionals in cancer biology, cell communication, and extracellular vesicle studies.
