Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method of diagnosing a malignant glioblastoma. The method can comprise of isolating glioma-derived exosomes from a bodily fluid of the subject, and characterizing the amount of Cluster of Differentiation (CD44) and Cluster of Differentiation 133 (CD133) present in the glioma-derived exosomes. This method allows for the diagnosis of a malignant glioblastoma using CD44 and CD133 levels in EGFRviii specific immunocaptured exosomes from bodily fluids, which has previously not been recognized as providing an indication of a glioblastoma.
