Exosomes, nanosized vesicles, play a vital role in breast cancer (BC) occurrence, development, and drug resistance. Hence, we proceeded to study the potential prognostic value of exosome-related genes and their relationship to the immune microenvironment in BC. 121 exosome-related genes were provided by the ExoBCD database, and 7 final genes were selected to construct the prognostic signature. Besides, the expression levels of the 7 exosome-related genes were validated by the experiment in BC cell lines. Based on the signature, BC patients from the training and validation cohorts were separated into low- and high-risk groups. Subsequently, the R clusterProfiler package was applied to identify the distinct enrichment pathways between high-risk groups and low-risk groups. The relevance of the tumor immune microenvironment and exosome-related gene risk score were analyzed in BC. Eventually, the different expression levels of immune checkpoint-related genes were compared between the two risk groups. Based on the risk model, the low-risk groups were identified with a higher survival rate both in the training and validation cohorts. A better overall survival was revealed in patients with higher scores evaluated by the estimation of stromal and immune cells in malignant tumor tissues using expression (ESTIMATE) algorithm. Subsequently, BC patients with lower risk scores were indicated by higher expression levels of some immune checkpoint-related genes and immune cell infiltration. Exosomes are closely associated with the prognosis and immune cell infiltration of BC. These findings may contribute to improving immunotherapy and provide a new vision for BC treatment strategies.
