Abstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Its incidence and mortality have significantly increased during the past few years. Colorectal cancer cells cross-talk with other cells through exosomes in their tumor microenvironment. The miRNAs containing exosomes are responsible for tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. Multiple studies have shown that exosomal miRNAs are key players in the crosstalk between cancerous, immune, and stromal cells during colorectal cancer development. They help in the establishment of the tumorigenic microenvironment by reprogramming macrophages towards a pro-tumorigenic phenotype. In this review, we discussed various exosomal miRNAs derived both from colorectal cancer cells and macrophages that promote or inhibit cancer aggression. We also discussed various miRNA-based therapeutic approaches to inhibit cancer progression.
期刊介绍:
Colorectal cancer is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in the developed world. Risk factors for colorectal cancer are on the rise in many countries; populations are aging, and obesity and diabetes are increasing. National screening programs are helping to detect cancer while it is still curable; however, colorectal cancer remains the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the USA and options are still limited for those with more advanced disease. Consequently, colorectal cancer is a major research priority for government, pharmaceutical companies and non-profit organizations. Research into diagnosis and optimum treatment of the disease is progressing rapidly, with new advances reported every day. Colorectal Cancer presents reviews, analysis and commentary. on all aspects of colorectal cancer.
