miRNA profiling of circulating EpCAM+ extracellular vesicles: promising biomarkers of colorectal cancer

Cancer cells secrete small membranous extracellular vesicles (EVs) into their microenvironment and circulation. These contain biomolecules, including proteins and microRNAs (miRNAs). Both circulating EVs and miRNAs have received much attention as biomarker candidates for non-invasive diagnostics. He...
