6. Extraction of miR-223 from human blood plasma and quantification using the two-tailed RT-qPCR and absolute quantification
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Sepsis is a very dangerous and life-threatening disease that develops when the body’s reaction to infection causes damage to the body’s tissues and organs. It is difficult to diagnose it and it develops fast leading to a high mortality rate. READ MORE

7. Future diagnostics of sepsis : Defining optimization methods in detection and quantification of circulating microRNA using the QIAcube and two-tailed RT-qPCR
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Sepsis, defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction, is a condition triggered by an adverse immune reaction often leading to a considerable cost in human lives. A fast and early detection is the cornerstone for treating sepsis, however, current therapeutic standard relies on blood culturing, a slow and non-specific indicator. READ MORE

8. Assessment of methods for microRNA isolation, microRNA amplification, and development of a normalization strategy for sepsis biomarker research
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Sepsis, defined by organ dysfunction caused by an adverse immune response of the host to an infection, comes with considerable cost in human lives and as a substantial burden financially. Significant upgrades have been made over the past two decades when diagnosing and treating sepsis but still with room for improvements. READ MORE

10. The Tumor Promoting Actions of Exosomal miRNAs
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiAbstract : Exosomes are nanosized vesicles that contain proteins and nucleic acids. They are released and taken up by many different cell types as a way of cell-to-cell communication. It has previously been recognized that exosomes released by cancer cells promote tumor progression.
