Anticancer drug resistance is a significant impediment in current cancer treatment. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from cancer cells were recently acknowledged as a critical mechanism of drug resistance, tumor progression, and metastasis. EVs are enveloped vesicles comprising a lipid bilayer that transfers various cargo, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and metabolites, from an originating cell to a recipient cell. Investigating the mechanisms whereby EVs confer drug resistance is still in the early stages. In this review, I analyze the roles of EVs derived from triple-negative breast cancer cells (TNBC-EVs) in anticancer drug resistance and discuss strategies to overcome TNBC-EV-mediated drug resistance.
抗癌药物耐药性是当前癌症治疗中的一个重大障碍。最近,源自癌细胞的细胞外囊泡(EVs)被认为是耐药性、肿瘤进展和转移的关键机制。EVs是被膜囊泡,由脂质双层组成,可将包括蛋白质、核酸、脂质和代谢物在内的各种货物从起源细胞转移到受体细胞。研究EVs赋予耐药性的机制仍处于早期阶段。在这篇综述中,我分析了三阴性乳腺癌细胞来源的EVs(TNBC-EVs)在抗癌药物耐药性中的作用,并讨论了克服TNBC-EV介导的耐药性的策略。
