New study using TAmiRNAs SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Test (Lateral Flow Method)
The aims of the study was to determine: (i) SARS-CoV-2 antibody positive employees in Austrian trauma hospitals and rehabilitation facilities, (ii) number of active virus carriers (symptomatic and asymptomatic) during the study (iii) antibody decline in seropositive subjects over a period of around 6 months and (iv) the usefulness of rapid antibody tests for outpatient screening. To find out more about TAmiRNAs SARS-CoV-2 [...]

Circulating miRNAs in bone health and disease
We want to draw your attention to our latest review which appeared in the special issue on miRNAs in Bone Research in Bone. In this review, we summarize important molecular basics of microRNA function and release and provide recommendations for best (pre-)analytical practices and documentation standards for circulating microRNA research required for generating high quality data and ensuring reproducibility of results. We review [...]
microRNA-146a controls age-related bone loss
We want to draw your attention to the latest publication in cooperation with TAmiRNA. The study identifies a novel and unexpected role of miR‐146a in bone homeostasis. miR‐146a increases with age and acts as an epigenetic molecular switch terminating bone accrual, leading to bone loss during aging by downregulating bone anabolic Wnt signaling. Conversely, loss of miR‐146a leads to continuous bone accrual during [...]

Dr. Michael Nodine´s Spike-in technology is nominated for a Houska prize
The “Houska“ Prize, awarded annually by the B&C Foundation, is Austria´s biggest private award for applied research. Dr. Michael Nodine, Gregor Mendel Institute of Molecular Plant Biology (GMI), was nominated for his work on the development of methods for nucleic acid quantification. A major issue they encountered was the lack of absolute quantification of small RNA levels, making the comparison between tissues difficult. To [...]
microRNAs as Promising Biomarkers of Platelet Activity in Antiplatelet Therapy Monitoring
We want to draw your attention to the latest review of TAmiRNA and the King's College London, in Cardiovascular Diabetology. "microRNAs as Promising Biomarkers of Platelet Activity in Antiplatelet Therapy Monitoring." Krammer TL, Mayr M & Hackl M. Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2020, 21(10), 3477; doi.org/10.3390/ijms21103477 In this review, we explain the secretion of miRNAs upon platelet activation and discuss the potential use [...]
