Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the 2nd leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, primarily due to the development of metastatic disease. The liver is the most frequently affected site. The metastatic cascade relies on a complex interaction between the immune system, tumor, and distant organs. Communication between the tumor and the metastatic site can be mediated by tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their cargo. The mechanisms underlying this process are starting to be understood through research that has rapidly expanded over the past 15 years. One crucial aspect is the remodeling of the microenvironment at the site of metastasis, which is essential for the formation of a premetastatic niche and the subsequent establishment of metastatic deposits. In the evaluated study, the authors use cellular experiments and a mouse model to investigate how tumour derived extracellular vesicles and their microRNA contents interact with hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). They demonstrate how this may lead to remodelling of the microenvironment and the formation of colorectal liver metastasis using their experimental model. In this mini review, we examine the current evidence surrounding tumour derived EVs and their effect on the tumour microenvironment to highlight potential areas for future research in CRC and other malignancies.
