Extracellular RNAs in Drug and Diagnostic Development

Extracellular RNA in Drug and Diagnostic Development

Extracellular RNAs (exRNAs) found in biofluids are a rich source of information about cellular processes in both health and disease. In particular, exRNAs enclosed in extracellular vesicles and therefore protected from degradation, are involved in intercellular communication and may serve as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s Second Annual Extracellular RNA in Drug and Diagnostic Development meeting will present the latest research in this emerging area of non-invasive diagnostics, including exosomes and microvesicles, circulating microRNA and other non-coding RNA, and issues of standardization, profiling, and data analysis.
