Oncogenic KIT-containing exosomes increase gastrointestinal stromal tumor cell invasion.
During tumor development, constant interplay occurs between tumor cells and surrounding stromal cells. We report evidence that gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) cells invade the interstitial stroma through the release of the oncogenic protein tyrosine kinase (KIT)-containing exosomes, which triggers the phenotypic conversion of progenitor smooth muscle cells to tumor-promoting cells. These ...
