Objective To summarize the relationship between exosomes and the occurrence and development of gastrointestinal cancer.Methods Through online database, we collected the literatures about the relationship between exosomes and the development of gastrointestinal cancer at home and abroad, and then made an review.Results Exosomes secreted by gastrointestinal cancer cells were related to tumorigenesis, tumor cell survival, chemoresistance, and early metastasis. Exosomes could play the role of information transmission, and regulation of cell physiology and pathological process in the development of gastrointestinal cancer through a variety of intercellular binding ways, and affectted the occurrence and development of gastrointestinal cancer via epigenetic regulation and tumor related signal transduction mechanism. They had been proved to be biomarkers, targets, and drug carriers for the treatment of gastrointestinalcancer.Conclusion It is a new way to explore the molecular mechanism of exosomes in the development of gastrointestinal cancer.
