HIGHLIGHTS • A bead-based microarray for exosome isolation and multiplexed tumor marker detection was developed. • The beads are uniformly trapped and queued among the micropillars in the chip, which can avoid optical interference and enable more accurate test results. • The results with different types of lung cancer exosome samples showed distinctive marker expression levels. ABSTRACT  Tumor-derived exosomes are actively involved in cancer progression and metastasis and have emerged as a promising marker for

cancer diagnosis in liquid biopsy. Because of their nanoscale size, complex

benefits fluorescence observation by dispersing the signals into every single bead, thereby avoiding optical interference and enabling more accurate test results. We analyzed exosomes in the cell culture supernatant of lung cancer and endothelial cell lines, and different lung cancer markers labeled with three QD probes were used to conduct multiplexed detection of exosome surface protein markers. Lung cancer-derived samples showed much higher (~ sixfold–tenfold) fluorescence intensity than endothelial cell samples, and different types of lung cancer samples showed distinctive marker expression levels. Additionally, using the chip to detect clinical plasma samples from cancer patients showed good diagnos
