Abstrakt: Breast cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed types of cancer in women. Metastasis, particularly to the lungs and brain, increases mortality in breast cancer patients. Recently, breast cancer-related exosomes have received significant attention because of their key role in breast cancer progression. As a result, numerous exosome-based therapeutic tools for diagnosis and treatment have been developed, and their biological and chemical mechanisms have been explored. This review summarizes up-to-date advanced key findings and technologies in breast cancer progression, diagnostics, and targeting. We focused on recent research on the basic biology of exosomes and disease-related exosomal genes and proteins, as well as their signal transduction in cell-to-cell communications, diagnostic markers, and exosome-based antibreast cancer technologies. We also paid special attention to technologies employing exosomes modified with functional peptides for the targeted delivery of therapeutic and diagnostic agents.
