Abstract
Exosomes are useful for cancer diagnosis and monitoring. However, clinical samples contain impurities that complicate direct analyses of cancer-derived exosomes. Therefore, a microfluidic chip-based magnetically labeled exosome isolation system (MEIS-chip) was developed as a lab-on-a-chip platform for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive cancer diagnosis and monitoring. Various magnetic nanoclusters (MNCs) were synthesized with different degrees of magnetization, and antibodies were introduced to capture HER2-overexpressing and common exosomes using immunoaffinity. MNC-bonded exosomes were separated into different exits according to their magnetization degrees. The MEIS-chip efficiently separated HER2-overexpressing exosomes from common exosomes that did not contain disease-related information. The simultaneous separation of HER2-and non-HER2-overexpressing exosomes provided a means of analyzing high-purity HER2-overexpressing exosomes while minimizing the contribution of non-target exosomes, reducing misdiagnosis risk. Notably, common exosomes served as a negative control for monitoring real-time changes in HER2 expression. These findings support the application of MEIS-chip for cancer diagnosis and treatment monitoring via effective exosome isolation.
