A team of researchers has studied the molecular profile of small “messenger” vesicles called exosomes, produced by cancer stem cells (CSCs), which play a key role in the process of carcinogenesis and metastasis in the blood of patients with malignant melanoma.
Their study has shown that these malignant melanoma vesicles produced by CSCs have a different molecular composition from that of differentiated tumor cells. These molecules were also found to be detectable in exosomes present in the blood,…
