Abstract Gliomas are complex and heterogeneous brain tumors with poor prognosis. Glioma cells can communicate their surroundings to create a tumor-permissive microenvironment. Exosomes represent new means of intercellular communication by delivering various bioactive molecules, including proteins, lipids nucleic acids, participate in tumor initiation progression.

In addition, ncRNAs be selectively packaged, secreted transferred between exosomes modulate numerous hallmarks glioma, such as proliferation, invasion, angiogenesis, immune-escape, treatment resistance. Hence, the strategies specifically targeting exosomal could attractive therapeutic options. able cross blood barrier (BBB), readily accessible nearly all types biofluids, which make them promising biomarkers gliomas.

Arachidonic acid (AA) metabolic enzymes including cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) and cytochrome P450 (CYP) 4A11 play important roles in glioma angiogenesis. Thus, there is an urgent need to identify the underlying mechanisms develop strategies overcome them.A homology model of human CYP4A11 was constructed using SYBYL-X 2.0.

Glioblastoma (GBM) consists of a heterogeneous collection competing cellular clones which communicate with each other and the tumor microenvironment (TME). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) present various exchange mechanisms: free miRNA, extracellular vesicles (EVs), or gap junctions (GJs). GBM cells transfer miR-4519 miR-5096 to astrocytes through GJs. Oligodendrocytes located in invasion front high levels miR-219-5p, miR-219-2-3p, miR-338-3p, all related their differentiation. There is reciprocal between endothelial (ECs) as promotes angiogenesis after being transferred into ECs, whereas miR-145-5p acts suppressor. In glioma stem (GSCs), miR-1587 miR-3620-5p increase proliferation inhibits hormone receptor co-repressor-1 (NCOR1) EVs transfers. GBM-derived carry miR-21 miR-451 that are up-taken by microglia monocytes/macrophages, promoting proliferation. Macrophages release enriched cells. This bidirectional increases STAT3 activity macrophages, invasion, proliferation, angiogenesis, resistance treatment. miR-1238 upregulated resistant EVs, conferring adjacent via CAV1/EGFR signaling pathway. Decrypting these mechanisms could lead better patient stratification development novel target therapies.
