In vivo trafficking of cancer-derived exosomes and their role in metastasis by Shih-Yen Wei, Sarah E. Shelton, Ying-Chieh Chen, Ke Huang

“…This process is driven by a combination of biological processes including invasion, intravasation, circulation, extravasation, and colonization of distant organs, among which cancer cell-derived exosomes facilitate metastasis through their enriched oncogenic miRNAs and lncRNAs to enhance cancer cell migration and invasion, promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition in recipient cells, help cancer cells evade immune detection, and alter the microenvironment to promote the formation of a pre-metastatic niche. …”
