Abstract
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) constitute a critical component of the tumor microenvironment (TME). CAFs can be reprogrammed by cancer cells, leading to the production of extracellular vesicles (EVs). These EVs serve as carriers for bioactive substances, including proteins, nucleic acids, and metabolic products, thereby facilitating tumor progression. CAF-derived EVs exert substantial influence on tumor cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis, the immunological environment, and the processes of lymphangiogenesis and angiogenesis. Despite their potential as non-invasive biomarkers and therapeutic delivery vehicles, the clinical application of CAF-derived EVs is currently limited by challenges in purification and precise targeting. This review delineates the diverse roles of CAF-derived EVs in tumor growth, metastasis, and immune evasion within the TME.
