Recent Advances in Detection for Breast-Cancer-Derived Exosomes.

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women, its incidence is secret, and more than half of the patients are diagnosed in the middle and advanced stages, so it is necessary to develop simple and efficient detection methods for breast cancer diagnosis to improve the survival rate and quality of life of breast cancer patients. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles secreted by all kinds of living cells, and play an important role in the occurrence and development of breast cancer and the formation of the tumor microenvironment. Exosomes, as biomarkers, are an important part of breast cancer fluid biopsy and have become ideal targets for the early diagnosis, curative effect evaluation, and clinical treatment of breast cancer.

A case report of idiopathic hyperaldosteronism characterized by bilateral adrenal adenoma.

Rationale: Primary aldosteronism (PA) comprises 2 main subtypes: unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism or named as bilateral adrenal hyperplasia (BAH). An accurate discrimination between APA and BAH is crucial because the former is treated with adrenalectomy (ADX) and the latter is primarily by aldosterone antagonists. We report a case of idiopathic hyperaldosteronism characterized by BAH.
