Stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles: role in oncogenic processes, bioengineering potential, and technical challenges

Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cellular-derived versatile transporters with a specialized property for trafficking a variety of cargo, including metabolites, growth factors, cytokines, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, throughout the microenvironment. EVs can act in a paracrine manner...
