TGF-β1-mediated exosomal lnc-MMP2-2 increases blood–brain barrier permeability via the miRNA-1207-5p/EPB41L5 axis to promote non-small cell lung cancer brain metastasis

Abstract Brain metastases remain a major problem in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The permeability of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is highly increased during lung cancer brain metastasis; however, the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. We previously found tha...
