Therefore, it is imperative to identify useful biomarkers for early diagnosis and new therapeutic targets for pancreatic cancer. Recently, extracellular vesicles have emerged as promising biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Given their presence in various bodily fluids, extracellular vesicles offer a noninvasive approach through liquid biopsy to detect and monitor cancer progression. In this review, we comprehensively examine the multifaceted roles of extracellular vesicles in the progression of cancer, while also exploring their potential as diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic biomarkers in the context of pancreatic cancer.}, organization = {private foundation Roberto Arnal Planelles (http://www. tilla.es/fundacion-roberto-arnal-planelles/)}, organization = {Andalusia FEDER Operational Plan 2021-2027 project with reference C-EXP-174-UGR23 to CT}, publisher = {OAE Publishing Inc}, keywords = {Extracellular vesicles}, keywords = {pancreatic cancer}, keywords = {liquid biopsy}, title = {Potential clinical applications of extracellular vesicles in pancreatic cancer: exploring untapped opportunities from biomarkers to novel therapeutic approaches}, doi = {10.20517/evcna.2023.68}, author = {Sánchez Manas, José Manuel and Perez de Gracia, Natalia and Perales Romero, Sonia and Martínez Galán, Joaquina and Torres Perales, Carolina and Real, Pedro J.}, }
