Diagnostic value of microRNAs derived from exosomes in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of early‐stage lung adenocarcinoma: A pilot study

Abstract

We identified a close correlation between BAL fluid exosomal miRNAs and tumor miRNAs. BAL fluid exosomal miRNAs obtained through noninvasive methods could serve as diagnostic biomarkers in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma.
