Purpose: Exosomes have been shown to play a role in most, if not all, steps of cancer progression. We still lack a comprehensive understanding of the bidirectional communication of exosomes between tumor cells and immune cells. This article aims to explore how exosomes can influence cancer growth and how they are affected by radiation therapy. Methods and Materials: We searched on PubMed and Web of Science on the impact of radiation on tumor derived exosomes and immune cell derived exosomes in tumor immune microenvironment. We screened all the related articles and summarized their main discoveries and important results. Results: This article reviewed the effects of tumor derived exosomes and immune cell-derived exosomes on TME and tumor progression after radiotherapy, suggesting the dual effects of exosomes which may refer to clinical practice. Moreover, we retrospected the clinical applications based on tumor derived exosomes, including liquid biopsy, radio-resistance and drug delivery, and discussed the challenges and prospects. Conclusions: Exosomes are important in cancer treatment, especially with radiation therapy. Learning more about them could lead to better treatments. However, there are still challenges to overcome. The review points out the need for more research in this area. |
