Pancreatic cancer is a prevalent lethal gastrointestinal that generally does not show any symptoms until it reaches advanced stages, resulting in high mortality rate. People at risk, such as those with family history or chronic pancreatitis, do have universally accepted screening protocol. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy demonstrate limited effectiveness the management of pancreatic cancer, emphasizing urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Recent studies indicated complex interaction among cells within dynamic microenvironment, comprising extracellular matrix, cancer-associated cells, diverse immune intricately regulates biological characteristics disease. Additionally, mounting evidence suggests EVs play crucial role mediators intercellular communication by transportation different biomolecules, miRNA, proteins, DNA, mRNA, lipids, between heterogeneous cell subpopulations.

Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma receptors (EPHs) represent the largest family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). EPH interaction with ephrins, their membrane-bound ligands, holds a pivotal role in embryonic development, while, though less active, it is also implicated various physiological functions during adult life. In normal hematopoiesis, different patterns EPH/ephrin expression have been correlated hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) maintenance and lineage-committed progenitor (HPC) differentiation, as well functional properties mature offspring.
