Extracellular vesicles in tumorigenesis, metastasis, chemotherapy resistance and intercellular communication in osteosarcoma

Bioengineered. 2023 Dec;14(1):113-128. doi: 10.1080/21655979.2022.2161711.

Abstract

Extracellular vehicles play crucial function in osteosarcoma tumorigenesis.Extracellular vehicles mediated the intercellular communication of osteosarcoma cells with other types cells in tumor microenvironment.Extracellular vehicles have potential utility in osteosarcoma diagnosis and treatment.

Keywords: Osteosarcoma; drug resistance; extracellular vesicles; metastasis; therapeutics; tumor microenvironment.
