Abstract:
:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small particles that are naturally released from various types of cells. EVs contain a wide variety of cellular components, such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and metabolites, which facilitate intercellular communication in diverse biological processes. In the tumor microenvironment, EVs have been shown to play important roles in tumor progression, including immune system-tumor interactions. Although previous studies have convincingly demonstrated the immunosuppressive functions of tumor-derived EVs, some studies have suggested that tumor-derived EVs can also stimulate host immunity, especially in therapeutic conditions. Recent studies have revealed the heterogeneous nature of EVs with different structural and biological characteristics that may account for the divergent functions of EVs in tumor immunity. In this review article, we provide a brief summary of our current understanding of tumor-derived EVs in immune activation and inhibition. We also highlight the emerging utility of EVs in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers and discuss the potential clinical applications of tumor-derived EVs.
