Abstract:

Early diagnosis of cancer is significant for reducing the mortality of cancer patients. In recent years,exosome microRNA(miRNA) plays a role in the early diagnosis of cancer,and it is closely related to the occurrence and development of cancer. Exosome miRNA is secreted by cancer cells. It also can regulate other cancer cells and the growing environment of tumors and ultimately drive the development of cancer. This review describes exosome miRNA and its extraction methods,and further describes its mechanism in cancer,and finally analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of exosome miRNA in cancer diagnosis.

Key words: Exosome, MicroRNA, Cancer, Diagnosis
