Abstract:
Exosomes are widely distributed in various body fluids. They are extracellular vesicles with a diameter of 30-100nm that contain a variety of biologically active substances. They play an important role in a variety of biological processes such as tumor invasion, migration and immune escape. With the progress of research, exosomes derived from bladder cancer have shown great potential in the early diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer. This article reviews the main biological characteristics of exosomes and their new developments in the diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer.
