Potential strategy for treating liver cancer: Study discovers signaling pathway mediated by extracellular vesicles

A research team led by Professor Judy Yam Wai-ping from the Department of Pathology, School of Clinical Medicine, LKS Faculty of Medicine, the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed) has made a significant breakthrough in unveiling an unrecognized signaling pathway mediated by circulating small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from liver cancer patients that promotes liver cancer metastasis. This discovery presents a potential therapeutic strategy for treating liver cancer. The findings have been published in Advanced Science.
