Featured article: A role for RASSF1A in tunneling nanotube formation between cells through GEFH1/Rab11 pathway control

Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) play critical role in coordination of both physiological and pathological conditions between distant cells by allowing transit of the cytoplasmic components. Here, we uncover the unknown role of RASSF1A/GEFH1 signaling as a novel candidate required for TNTs formation through control of Rab11 accumulation and subsequent exosome release. Accordingly, we postulate that targeting TNTs formation in hypermethylated RASSF1A cells, will be a promising therapeutic strategy for preventing intercellular communication in tumor microenvironment.
