Tissue‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Define Diagnostic Biomarkers for Renal Cell Carcinoma

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2026.
Tissue‐derived EVs reveal renal cell carcinoma subtype biomarkers (NDUFA4L2/VEGFA/APOC1). Validated in urinary EVs (AUC 0.92), these markers originate from cancer cells and tumour‐associated macrophages via scRNA‐seq, enabling non‐invasive diagnosis and mechanistic insights into RCC progression.
