Abstract

Cells usually communicate with their surrounding environment by extracellular vesicles (EVs). In normal lung cells, EVs maintain lung physiological homeostasis while they can promote tumour progression and modify the microenvironment. A complex consists of two tyrosine kinase receptors (TrkB and EGFR) with the neurotensin receptor-3 (sortilin) (TES complex) carried by exosomes could control the migration of the cells and activate angiogenesis in lung cancer (Al-Yozbaki et., al 2020); and deregulation of sortilin levels contributes to the development of several diseases, including neurological diseases and cancer such as lung cancer (Wilson et., al 2014).
The aim of this study is to explore the effect of deregulation of sortilin expression on lung cancer development and progression.
