    Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) constitute a large family of small, approximately 20-22-nucleotide, non-coding RNAs that are involved in gene regulation, mainly at the post-transcriptional level. Multiple lines of evidence have indicated that miRNAs play important roles in the maintenance of biological homeostasis and that aberrant expression levels of miRNAs are involved in the onset of many diseases, including cancer. In various types of cancer, miRNAs play important roles in tumor initiation and development. Recently, miRNAs have been demonstrated to also be secreted via small endosome-derived vesicles called exosomes-which are derived from multiple cell types-including immunocytes and cancer cells. Exosomal miRNAs exert important functions in cell-to-cell communication and have been investigated as prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers

    Abstract Tumor tissue is densely packed with cancer cells, non-cancerous cells, and ECM, forming functional structures. Cancer cells transfer extracellular vesicles (EVs) to modify surrounding normal cells into cancer-promoting cells, establishing a tumor-favorable environment together with other signaling molecules and structural components. Such tissue environments largely affect cancer cell properties, and so as EV-mediated cellular communications within tumor tissue. However, current research on EVs focuses on functional analysis of vesicles isolated from the liquid phase, including cell culture supernatants and blood draws, 2D-cultured cell assays, or systemic analyses on animal models for biodistribution. Therefore, we have a limited understanding of local EV transfer within tumor tissues. In this review, we discuss the need to study EVs in a physiological tissue context by summarizing the current findings on the impacts of tumor tissue environment on cancer EV properties and transfer and the techniques required for the analysis. Tumor tissue environment is likely to alter EV properties, pose physical barriers, interactions, and interstitial flows for the dynamics, and introduce varieties in the cell types taken up. Utilizing physiological experimental settings and spatial analyses, we need to tackle the remaining questions on physiological EV-mediated cancer-host cell interactions. Understanding cancer EV-mediated cellular communications in physiological tumor tissues will lead to developing interaction-targeting therapies and provide insight into EV-mediated non-cancerous cells and interspecies interactions.

    Abstract Among the analytes circulating in body fluids, microRNAs, a type of non-coding RNA and known to exist 2655 in primates, have attracted attention as a novel biomarker for cancer screening. MicroRNAs are signaling molecules with important gene expression regulatory functions that can simultaneously control many gene functions and multiple different pathways in living organisms. These microRNAs are transported in extracellular vesicles (EVs), which are lipid bilayers with 50-150 nm in diameter, and are used as communication tools between cells. Furthermore, the EVs that carry these microRNAs circulate in the bloodstream and have other important implications for understanding the pathogenesis and diagnosis of breast cancer. The greatest benefit from cancer screening is the reduction in breast cancer mortality rate through early detection. Other benefits include reduced incidence of breast cancer, improved quality of life, prognosis prediction, contribution to personalized medicine, and relative healthcare cost containment. This paper outlines the latest developments in liquid biopsy for breast cancer, especially focusing on microRNA and EV diagnostics.

    Abstract This article examines liquid biopsy using non-coding RNAs and extracellular vesicles in detail. Liquid biopsy is emerging as a prominent non-invasive diagnostic tool in the treatment of breast cancer. We will elucidate the roles of these molecules in early detection, monitoring treatment effectiveness, and prognostic assessment of breast cancer. Additionally, the clinical significance of these molecules will be discussed. We aim to delve into the distinct characteristics of these molecules and their possible roles in breast cancer management, with an anticipation of their contribution to future diagnostic and therapeutic advancements.

    Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are particles with a lipid bilayer structure, and they are secreted by various cells in the body. EVs interact with and modulate the biological functions of recipient cells by transporting their cargoes, such as nucleic acids and proteins. EVs influence various biological phenomena, including disease progression. They also participate in tumor progression by stimulating a variety of signaling pathways and regulating immune system activation. EVs induce immune tolerance by suppressing CD8

    Abstract Oral cancer is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, with approximately 530,000 new cases and 300,000 deaths each year. The process of carcinogenesis is complex, and survival rates have not changed significantly in recent decades. Early detection of cancer, prognosis prediction, treatment selection, and monitoring of progression are important to improve survival. With the recent significant advances in analytical technology, liquid biopsy has made it possible to achieve these goals. In this review, we report new results from clinical and cancer research applications of liquid biopsy, focusing on extracellular vesicles (EVs) among the major targets of liquid biopsy, namely, circulating tumor cells (CTCs), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and EVs. In addition, the potential application of EVs derived from gram-negative bacteria (outer membrane vesicles; OMVs) among oral bacteria, which have recently attracted much attention, to liquid biopsy for oral cancer will also be addressed.

    Abstract Background: Transplantation of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) has been reported to improve the severity of chronic lymphedema. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells have been reported to exert effects such as the promotion of angiogenesis, suppression of inflammation, and regeneration of damaged organs. In this study, the authors show that lymphangiogenesis was induced by EVs derived from ADSCs and reveal the therapeutic potential of these EVs for the treatment of lymphedema.
    Methods: The authors examined the in vitro effects of ADSC-EVs to lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). Next, they conducted an in vivo analysis of ADSC-EVs to mouse lymphedema models. Bioinformatics analysis was also performed to evaluate the implications of the altered microRNA expression.
    Results: The authors showed that ADSC-EVs promoted the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of LECs, and the gene expression of lymphatic markers was elevated in the ADSC-EV-treated group. Notably, a mouse lymphedema model revealed that legs treated with ADSC-EVs had markedly improved edema, with increased numbers of capillary vessels and lymphatic channels. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that ADSC-EV-associated microRNAs, such as miR-199a-3p, miR-145-5p, miR-143-3p, miR-377-3p, miR-100-3p, miR-29a-3p, miR-495-3p, and miR-29c-3p, targeted mouse double minute 2 homolog, which contributed to the stability of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and resulted in angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis in LECs.
    Conclusions: The present study showed lymphangiogenic effects of ADSC-EVs, which will lead to new treatment options for chronic lymphedema. Cell-free therapy with EVs has fewer potential risks, such as poor engraftment efficiency and potential tumor formation, than stem cell transplantation and could be a promising tool for patients with lymphedema.
    Clinical relevance statement: This study may open up new possibilities for novel therapies for lymphedema.

    Abstract Breast cancer, which exhibits an increasing incidence and high mortality rate among cancers, is predominantly attributed to metastatic malignancies. Brain metastasis, in particular, significantly contributes to the elevated mortality in breast cancer patients. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small lipid bilayer vesicles secreted by various cells that contain biomolecules such as nucleic acids and proteins. They deliver these bioactive molecules to recipient cells, thereby regulating signal transduction and protein expression levels. The relationship between breast cancer metastasis and EVs has been extensively investigated. In this review, we focus on the molecular mechanisms by which EVs promote brain metastasis in breast cancer. Additionally, we discuss the potential of EV-associated molecules as therapeutic targets and their relevance as early diagnostic markers for breast cancer brain metastasis.
