Chitinase 3-like-1 and fibronectin in the cargo of extracellular vesicles shed by human macrophages influence pancreatic cancer cellular response to gemcitabine

The work recently published in the journal “Cancer Letters” by Cristina Xavier et al., in the scope of her post-doctoral research at the Cancer Drug Resistance Group, i3S, demonstrated the impact of Extracellular Vesicles released by macrophages on the response of pancreatic cancer cells to a chemotherapeutic agent. This work results from a collaboration with the Tumor and Microenvironment Interactions Group of i3S, the Experimental Pathology and Therapeutics Group of IPO-Porto and the Genetic Diversity Group of i3S.
