Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive brain tumor with a low survival rate. Due to its heterogeneous composition, high invasiveness, and frequent recurrence after surgery, treatment success has been limited. In addition, due to the brain's unique immune status and the suppressor tumor microenvironment (TME), glioblastoma treatment has faced more challenges. Exosomes play a critical role in cancer metastasis by regulating cell-cell interactions that promote tumor growth, angiogenesis, metastasis, treatment resistance, and immunological regulation in the tumor microenvironment. This review explores the pivotal role of exosomes in the development of glioblastoma, with a focus on their potential as non-invasive biomarkers for prognosis, early detection and real-time monitoring of disease progression. Notably, exosome-based drug delivery methods hold promise for overcoming the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and developing targeted therapies for glioblastoma. Despite challenges in clinical translation, the potential for personalized exosome = -054321`therapies and the capacity to enhance therapeutic responses in glioblastoma, present intriguing opportunities for improving patient outcomes. It seems that getting a good and current grasp of the role of exosomes in the fight against glioblastoma would properly serve the scientific community to further their understanding of the related potentials of these biological moieties.
胶质母细胞瘤是最常见且侵袭性最强的脑肿瘤,生存率低。由于其成分异质性、高侵袭性以及术后频繁复发,治疗成效有限。此外,由于大脑独特的免疫状态和肿瘤抑制性微环境(TME),胶质母细胞瘤的治疗面临更多挑战。外泌体通过调节细胞间相互作用在癌症转移中发挥关键作用,这些相互作用促进肿瘤生长、血管生成、转移、治疗抗性以及肿瘤微环境中的免疫调节。本综述探讨了外泌体在胶质母细胞瘤发展中的关键作用,重点关注其作为预后、疾病进展的早期检测和实时监测的非侵入性生物标志物的潜力。值得注意的是,基于外泌体的药物递送方法有望克服血脑屏障(BBB)并开发针对胶质母细胞瘤的靶向疗法。尽管在临床转化方面存在挑战,但个性化外泌体疗法的潜力以及增强胶质母细胞瘤治疗反应的能力,为改善患者预后提供了引人入胜的机会。似乎很好地掌握外泌体在对抗胶质母细胞瘤中的作用将有助于科学界进一步了解这些生物部分的相关潜力。
