A growing number of studies demonstrate that tumor-derived microvesicles are involved in tumor initiation and progression, as well as drug resistance. In addition, tumor-derived microvesicles carry a variety of immunogenic molecules and inhibit tumor response to immunotherapy; therefore, they can be exploited for use in tumor vaccines. Moreover, because of their high stability, tumor-derived microvesicles extracted from body fluids can be used as biomarkers for cancer diagnosis or assessment of prognosis. Tumor-derived microvesicles can also be deployed to reverse drug resistance of tumor regenerative cells, or to deliver chemotherapeutic drugs and oncolytic adenovirus for the treatment of cancer patients. This review summarizes the general characteristics of tumor-derived microvesicles, focusing on their biological characteristics, their involvement in tumor progression, and their clinical applications.Keywords: tumor-derived microvesicles, metastasis, drug resistance, cancer vaccine, cancerZhu SLi SYi MLi NWu KDove Medical Pressarticletumor-derived microvesiclesmetastasisdrug resistancecancer vaccinecancerMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 16, Pp 7071-7090 (2021)
