Hina Kalra, +55 more
- 18 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: Vesiclepedia is a community-annotated compendium of molecular data on extracellular vesicles that aims to provide a single authoritative source for information on vesicle structure and function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Macrophage microvesicles induce macrophage differentiation and miR-223 transfer.

TL;DR: Macrophage-derived microvesicles are characterized and their role in the differentiation of naive monocytes is explored and the miRNA content is identified, finding that RNA molecules contained in the macrophages were transported to target cells, including mono cytes, endothelial cells, epithelial Cells, and fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methodological challenges in utilizing miRNAs as circulating biomarkers.

TL;DR: Several key procedural aspects of miRNA isolation from plasma and serum are reported, as exemplified by research in cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases.
