Reviewer 1 Report
Dear editor,
This review entitled “Exosomal LncRNAs in Gastrointestinal Cancer: Biological 2Functions and Emerging Clinical Applications” summarize the recent work conducted in this field and evaluate the opportunities and challenges in utilizing exosomal lncRNAs for the diagnostic and therapeutic purposes of gastrointestinal cancer in the clinical setting. However, there are a few point could be revise
1. According to the recommendation of ISEV2018, exosomes can be replaced by EV or sEV, please refer to the recommendations of ISEV2018 in detail, and quote and amend them in the review.
2. In figure4, ’plasma derived EV”\ serum derived EV, this definition is more appropriate
3. LNC carrying EV uptake can also be included in the review.

Response: Thanks for your suggestion. We have refered to the recommendations of ISEV2018 in detail, and quoted and amended them in our revised manuscript.
2: In figure4, ’plasma derived EV”\ serum derived EV, this definition is more appropriate
Response: Thanks for your suggestion. We have corrected it in our revised manuscript.
3: LNC carrying EV uptake can also be included in the review.
Response: Thanks for your suggestion. We have added a description about the uptake of EVs carring lncRNAs in Section 3.
We hope that the above responses meet the expectations of the reviewer. The comments and suggestions are helpful in improving the quality of our manuscript.
Thank you for your consideration. We look forward to hearing from you and to publication of this manuscript.

Reviewer 2 Report
This review deals with lncRNAs in gastrointestinal cancer and addresses their potential for diagnostics and therapeutics.
The manuscript is well described and may help to understand the role of lncRNAs in its pathophysiology and the search for novel targets for biomarkers. It is scientifically sound and contains sufficient interest and originality to merit publication.
Minor comments:
1. Some genes have already been reported to be associated with GI cancers but are not listed in Fig3 or Table 1. For example, UPAT and DUXAP10 in colorectal cancer and TM4SF1-AS1 in gastric cancer. Please consider that discussions about them could be added.
