Extracelluar Vesicles
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale particles released by all cell types that carry proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids reflective of their cell of origin. Acting as messengers, they mediate communication between cells in both health and disease. In cancer, EVs contribute to tumor progression, immune evasion, and metastasis by transferring bioactive molecules to distant sites. Because their molecular cargo mirrors cellular states and can be detected in accessible biofluids such as blood or ascites, EVs represent a promising source of non-invasive biomarkers. Studying EVs through advanced proteomic and molecular analyses opens new avenues for early diagnosis and targeted therapy.
