Tumour-originated exosomal miR-155 triggers cancer-associated cachexia to promote tumour progression

Abstract Emerging evidence supports the pivotal roles of cancer-associated cachexia in breast cancer progression. However, the mediators and mechanisms that mediate cancer-induced cachexia remain unclear. Here, we show that breast cancer-derived exosomes alter adipocytes and muscle cells in terms of...
