Abstract

Tumor-derived extracellular vesicles promote metastasis by inducing functional changes in cells at pre-metastatic sites conducive for tumor cell colonization. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Ortiz and colleagues show that type I interferon regulates extracellular vesicle uptake and that modulating this pathway holds promise for treating metastasis.
