Tumour Cells Incorporate Exosomes Derived from Dendritic Cells through a Mechanism Involving the Tetraspanin CD9

Exosomes (Exos) are secreted nanovesicles that contain membrane proteins and genetic material, which can be transferred between cells and contribute to their communication in the body. We show that Exos, obtained from mature human dendritic cells (DCs), are incorporated by tumour cells, which after...
