ABSTRACT
Exosomes are nano-sized phospholipid bilayer vesicles containing abundant and complex biomolecules, such as DNA, mRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), lipids, and proteins. Exosomes can be secreted and ingested by most types of cells to transfer information through intercellular transport. After uptake by recipient cells, exosomes release bioactive substances to regulate the biological processes of recipient cells, such as promoting tumor growth and metastasis. Changes of exosomes and their contents are associated with a variety of diseases. In recent years, the role of exosomal miRNAs in the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) caused by viral hepatitis has attracted wide attention, and exosomal miRNAs from different sources play different roles in this process. This article briefly reviews the research on the role of exosomal miRNAs in the development and progression of viral hepatitis-related HCC and proposes that exosomal miRNAs may be the targets for immunotherapy for HCC microenvironment.
