Leukemia, a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, is a complex and devastating disease with limited treatment options. Over the years, researchers have been exploring novel therapeutic approaches to improve patient outcomes. One emerging area of interest is the role of exosomes in leukemia. Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles secreted by various cell types, including cancer cells. They play a crucial role in intercellular communication by transferring bioactive molecules such as microRNAs (miR- NAs) between cells. Recent studies have highlighted the involvement of exosome miRNAs in leukemia progression, therapy resistance, and disease prognosis. Understanding the mechanisms underlying exosome-mediated miRNA transfer in leukemia may provide valuable insights into disease pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets. Furthermore, exosomes can serve as non-invasi.. Read More»
