Аннотация
Urinary exosomes (UE) are small circular membranous vesicles with a lipid bilayer with a diameter of 40-160 nm secreted by epithelial cells of the kidney and genitourinary system, which can reflect the physiological and functional status of secretory cells. Protein and RNA in exosomes can be used as markers for diseases diagnosis. Urine specimens are available and non-invasive. The protein and RNA in UE are more stable than the soluble protein and RNA in urine, which have broad application prospects in the diagnosis of urinary system diseases. This article reviews the recent advances in the application of protein or RNA in UE as markers to the diagnosis of urinary system diseases.
