Table 2 Diagnostic effect of exosomes in stroke patients

From: Exosomes-based therapy of stroke, an emerging approach toward recovery

Exosome

miRNA

The role

Mechanism

Reference

Exo in the serum of acute ischemic stroke patients 24 h after stroke

miRNA-134

Diagnosis and prognosis of stroke

Enhancing of serum interleukin 6 (IL-6) and plasma high-sensitivity C relative protein (hs-CRP) expression

[170]

Exo in human circulating blood with acute ischemic stroke patients 72 h after stroke

miRNA-223

Diagnosis and prognosis of stroke

Correlation with acute ischemic stroke occurrence, stroke severity, and short-term outcomes

[171]

Exo in the serum of acute ischemic stroke patients

miRNA-9 and miRNA-124

Diagnosis and prognosis of stroke

A positive correlation between both miR-9 and miR-124 levels with National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, infarct size, and concentrations of IL-6 in the serum

[172]

The plasma-derived Exo in patients with different phases of ischemic stroke

miRNA-21-5p

A biomarker to Diagnosis and identifies in early-stage of ischemic stroke

The plasma exosomal miR-21-5p levels are significantly higher in patients than in the control group

[173]

The plasma-derived Exo in patients with acute phase and subacute phase of ischemic stroke

miR-422a and miR-125b-2-3p

A blood-based reference for monitoring and diagnosing patients with ischemic stroke

Decreasing plasma exosomal miRNA-422a and miR-125b-2-3p expression in the subacute phase group and increasing miRNA-422a levels in the acute phase group rather than in the control group and reduction of plasma exosomal miR-422a and miR-125b-2-3p expression in the subacute phase group than in the acute phase group
