Abstract
How tumor cells control metastatic niche formation is not fully understood. Here, the authors show in a lung metastatic niche, high-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma cells secrete exosomal miR-1247-3p that leads to activation of β1-integrin-NF-κBsignalling, converting fibroblasts to cancer-associated fibroblasts.
