Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Exosomes have become more and more popular in the field of tumor research in recent years. They can carry a large number of bioactive molecules directly to the receptor cells and participate in the. information exchange between cells. As the highest content and most kinds of non-coding RNA in exosomes, miRNAs play an important role in the proliferation, invasion, drug resistance and immunity of glioma. In addition, miRNAs have potential application value in the auxiliary diagnosis, treatment orientation and prognosis evaluation of glioma. OBJECTIVE: To describe the mechanism of exosome miRNAs sorting, the regulatory role in gliomas and its clinical application, to provide literature and theoretical basis for further exploring the relationship between exosome miRNAs and gliomas, and to exert positive significance in the diagnosis and treatment of gliomas. METHODS: The first author searched CNKI, WanFang database, PubMed database and EI database. The key words were “glioma, exosomes, miRNAs, sorting mechanism, biomarkers” in Chinese and English. Totally 118 literatures were retrieved. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and literature supplement, totally 52 literatures were selected for summary and induction, mainly regarding the sorting mechanism of exosome miRNAs, the regulatory role in glioma and clinical application. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At present, the effective treatment of gliomas cannot meet the clinical needs even though a variety of high-intensity combined treatment schemes are adopted in this study. In this case, it is an important supplement for the clinical treatment of gliomas to propose the application of exosomes-mediated miRNAs in gene therapy of gliomas. Exosomes-mediated miRNAs cannot only play a regulatory role in the occurrence and development of glioma, invasion and metastasis, radiochemotherapy resistance, and immune regulation, but also play a potential role as a biomarker in the grading diagnosis, prognosis evaluation, treatment and other aspects of glioma. This will provide a solid theoretical basis for us to further explore the relationship between exosome miRNAs and glioma, and also has a positive clinical significance in the innovative diagnosis and treatment of glioma.
