Exosomal miR-224-5p from colorectal cancer cells promotes malignant transformation of human colon normal cells by promoting cell proliferation through downregulation of CMTM4
Abstract:Background
Interactions between malignant cells and neighboring normal cells is important for carcinogenesis. In addition, cancer cell-derived exosomes have been shown to promote the malignant transformation of recipient cells, but the mechanisms remain unclear.
Methods
The level of miR-224-5p in colorectal cancer (CRC) cell-derived exosomes was determined by RT-qPCR assay. In addition, PKH26 dye-labeled exosomes were used to assess the efficacy of the transfer of exosomes between SW620 and CCD 841 CoN cells… Show more
