Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA-100 shuttled by mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes suppresses in vitro angiogenesis through modulating the mTOR/HIF-1α/VEGF signaling axis in breast cancer cells.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that exosomal transfer of miR-100 may be a novel mechanism underlying the paracrine effects of MSC-derived exosomes and may provide a means by which these vesicles can modulate vascular responses within the microenvironment of breast cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel strategies for targeting leukemia stem cells: sounding the death knell for blood cancer

TL;DR: A growing body of evidence indicates that the selective targeting of LSCs represents a promising approach to improve disease outcome, and the CSC hypothesis has added a new dimension to the area of anticancer research, thereby paving the way for shaping a new trend in cancer therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A panel of six-circulating miRNA signature in serum and its potential diagnostic value in colorectal cancer

TL;DR: It is confirmed that serum-derived miRNAs have a strong potential to be a diagnostic biomarker for patients with CRC, and were significantly up-regulated in CRC patients, while miR-143 and mi-145 showed a significant down-regulation.
Journal Article

Therapeutic application of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes: A promising cell-free therapeutic strategy in regenerative medicine.

TL;DR: The current literature on administration of exosomes released by mesenchymal stem cells in regenerative medicine is summarized and how they could help to improve tissue regeneration following injury is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colorectal cancer cell-derived extracellular vesicles transfer miR-221-3p to promote endothelial cell angiogenesis via targeting suppressor of cytokine signaling 3.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the potential clinical significance of a signature of four circulating serum-derived miRNAs in colorectal cancer patients and demonstrated that extracellular vesicles (EVs) containing miR-221-3p could facilitate endothelial cell angiogenesis.
