MicroRNA-enriched exosome as dazzling dancer between cancer and immune cells.

Abstract

Exosomes are widely recognized for their roles in numerous biological processes and as intercellular communication mediators. Human cancerous and normal cells can both produce massive amounts of exosomes. They are extensively dispersed in tumor-modeling animals' pleural effusions, ascites, and plasma from people with cancer. Tumor cells interact with host cells by releasing exosomes, which allow them to interchange various biological components. Tumor growth, invasion, metastasis, and even tumorigenesis can all be facilitated by this delicate and complex system by modifying the nearby and remote surroundings. Due to the existence of significant levels of biomolecules like microRNA, exosomes can modulate the immune system's stimulation or repression, which in turn controls tumor growth. However, the role of microRNA in exosome-mediated communication between immunological and cancer cells is still poorly understood. This study aims to get the most recent information on the "yin and yang" of exosomal microRNA in the regulation of tumor immunity and immunotherapy, which will aid current cancer treatment and diagnostic techniques.
