Current status of research on exosomes in general, and for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney cancer in particular

Mao, Weipu, Wang, Keyi, Wu, Zonglin, Xu, Bin, Chen, Ming·2021·Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research

Abstract

Kidney cancer is a common urological tumour. Owing to its high prevalence and mortality rate, it is the third most malignant tumour of the urinary system, followed by prostate and bladder cancers. It exerts a high degree of malignancy, and most of the distant metastasis occurs at an early stage; it is insensitive to chemoradiotherapy and easily develops drug resistance. The current treatment for kidney cancer mainly includes surgery, interventional embolization and targeted therapy; however, the treatment efficacy is poor. In recent years, the role of exosomes as mediators of intercellular communication and information exchange in the tumour microenvironment in tumour pathogenesis has attracted much attention. Exosomes are rich in bioactive substances such as nucleic acids, proteins and lipids and are involved in angiogenesis, immune regulation, drug resistance, formation of pre-metastatic niche, invasion and metastasis. This article reviews the ongoing research and applications of exosomes for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney cancer.

Fig. 2 Exosome biogenesis and secretion within endosomal system by the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) pathway. Early endosomes (EEs) are formed by the fusion of endsomes. Subsequently, EEs depend on ESCRT to form multivesicular late endosomes (LEs)/bodies (MVBs). Rab27a and Rab27b direct the movement of LEs/MVBs toward the cell periphery, the SNARE complex helps LEs/MVBs fuse with the plasma membrane to release exosomes, and the rest of LEs/MVBs are degraded by lysosomes

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
