The release of exosomes from the cell engenders cell-to-cell signaling between cellular-compartments. The trading of exosomes between tumor and yonder cells plays a hypercritical role in tumor growth and progression.

Langmuir films of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC), dipalmitoylphosphatidic acid (DPPA), dioctadecyldimethylammoniumbromide (DOMA) at air/water interface interacting with the chromium(III) complexes have been characterized using the surface pressure-molecular area (π-A) isotherms. Initial surface pressures changes for the two complexes show that the chromium(III) complexes inserted in the Langmuir films and complex I interacted strongly compared to complex II.
