The mechanisms underlying the hypoxic cancer cell-mediated differentiation of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) have not been elucidated yet. The present study showed that the hypoxic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cells promoted CAF-like differentiation through secreting TGF-β and small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) that contain enhanced levels of miR-192/215 family miRNAs. Caveolin-1 (CAV1), which is a target gene of miR-192/215, inhibited the TGF-β/SMAD signaling and promoted CAF-like differentiation of the fibrob
