Exosome-Mediated Cellular Communication in the Tumor Microenvironment Imparts Drug Resistance in Breast Cancer.
Review in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Globally, breast cancer (BC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death for women. BC is characterized by heterogeneity, aggressive behavior, and high metastatic potential. Chemotherapy, administered as monotherapy or adjuvant therapy, remains a cornerstone of treatment; however, acquired drug resistance is a significant clinical challenge. Deciphering mechanisms of drug resistance will be central to developing more efficient treatment options and improving patient outcomes. The current review examines the multifaceted nature of exosomes in conferring drug resistance in BC through complex communication networks within the tumor microenvironment. We further explore recent advances in understanding how exosomes contribute to resistance against established chemotherapeutic agents such as tamoxifen, paclitaxel, doxorubicin, platinum-based drugs, trastuzumab, and newer immunotherapies, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors. Moreover, we discuss existing systematic approaches to investigating the exosome-drug resistance relationship in BC. Finally, we explore promising therapeutic approaches to overcome exosome-dependent drug resistance in BC, highlighting potential avenues for improved treatment efficacy. Investigating the distinct functions and cargo of exosomes offers potential for developing innovative approaches to overcoming treatment resistance.
