Abstract
- Although the association between cancer and venous thromboembolism (VTE) has long been known, the mechanisms are poorly understood. Circulating tissue factor–bearing extracellular vesicles have been proposed as a possible explanation for the increased risk of VTE observed in some types of cancer. The International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) and International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) held a joint Educational Day in April 2014 to discuss the latest developments in this field. This review discusses the themes of that event and the ISEV 2014 meeting that followed.Keywords: extracellular vesicles; thrombosis; cancer; tissue factor (Published: 13 March 2015)Citation: Journal of Extracellular Vesicles 2015, 4: 26901 - http://dx.doi.org/10.3402/jev.v4.26901
