Abstract

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the fourth most common cause of cancer‑related mortality worldwide and is characterized by high invasiveness and early metastasis. To identify novel diagnostic markers, the present study aimed to understand the mechanism underlying PC progression. The present study demonstrated that exosomes derived from the highly metastatic Panc‑1 PC cell line were internalized by a low metastatic cell line, resulting in increased migration of the latter. Proteomics analysis further revealed that the receptor tyrosine kinase Eph receptor A2 (EphA2) was overexpressed in the Panc‑1 exosomes, and these Exo_EphA2 had the ability to transfer metastatic potential to recipient cells. Consistent with this, circulating Exo_EphA2 levels were higher in patients with PC compared with healthy controls. Taken together, these results indicated that Exo_EphA2 acts an oncogene in PC and is a potential tumor maker for PC diagnosis.
