Abstract: Tumor progression is one of the major challenges in cancer treatment, and macrophages, as an important component of the immune system, have been extensively studied for their role in tumor immunomodulation. Exosomes are a group of small vesicles secreted by cells containing a variety of biologically active molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids. Recent studies have shown that exosomes serve as an important messenger for macrophages, which participate in the regulation of tumor growth, metastasis, immune escape and drug resistance by releasing exosomes.
