Extracellular vesicles from PC-H1 have antiproliferative activity of colon cells, but the effect on glycolytic metabolism of cancer cell remains enigmatic. The authors investigated how extracellular vesicles (LpEVs) inhibit the growth of colon cancer cells by affecting tumor metabolism. HCT116 cells were treated with LpEVs and then differentially expressed genes were analyzed by transcriptome sequencing, the sequencing results were confirmed and .
