| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is an extremely stroma-rich and highly aggressive solid tumor. The finding that exosomes contain proteins, nucleic acids suggests a role as mediators in cell-to-cell communication. The some of sorted miRNAs were packaged into exosomes, since the miRNA profiles in serum differ from those of the cancer tissues in rat pancreas cancer. It is suggested that exosomes and sorted miRNAs manipulate the cells in their microenvironment.
