Pulmonary metastases represent a leading cause of mortality in colorectal cancer (CRC); however, the stromal mechanisms underlying metastatic colonization remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from inflammatory cancer-associated fibroblasts (iCAFs) are key promoters of CRC pulmonary metastasis (CRPM). Using single-cell RNA sequencing in a CRPM mouse model, we found that iCAFs constitute the predominant fibroblast population within the metastatic ...[more]
