Emerging role of exosome-derived long non-coding RNAs in tumor microenvironment.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The expression level of osteopontin correlates with the metastatic potential of several tumors. Osteopontin is a well-characterized ligand for the alphavbeta3 integrin. The present study was undertaken to elucidate the possible role of osteopontin/alphavbeta3 signaling in prostate cancer cell migration. RES...
