MiR-668-3p in M2 macrophage-derived exosomes activates autophagy through the ETS1/EGFR axis and promotes cisplatin resistance in gastric cancer

AbstractBackground Previous research suggests that tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) influence the cisplatin (DDP) tolerance of gastric cancer (GC) cells via the secretion of microRNA-containing exosomes. This study aims to investigate the role of exosomal miR-668-3p from M2 macrophages in modulating DDP...
