We want to draw your attention to our latest publication which appeared in American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology. We could show that laser microdissection combined with (small) RNA sequencing revealed renal microvascular compartment-specific miRNA and mRNA expression profiles. Unique miRNome and transcriptome profiles underlie microvascular heterogeneity in mouse kidney Luxen M, Zwiers PJ, Meester F et al. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol. 2023 Sep 1;325(3):F299-F316. doi: 10.1152/ajprenal.00005.2023. Epub 2023 Jul 6. TAmiRNA and Dutch company Vivomicx have combined their respective technologies of high sensitivity gene expression profiling (RT-qPCR and smallRNAseq/RNAseq) and laser microdissection to enable cell-type specific and space-resolved RNA expression analysis in complex tissues.

Plasma levels of platelet-enriched microRNAs change during antiplatelet therapy in healthy subjects

2023-03-10T08:28:49+01:00January 30th, 2023|biomarkers, diagnose disease, extracellular vesicle, microRNA, platelet-associated miRNAs, smallRNA, thrombomiR, treatment monitoring|Comments Off on Plasma levels of platelet-enriched microRNAs change during antiplatelet therapy in healthy subjects

We want to draw your attention to our most recent publication where we investigated platelet-enriched miRNAs (thrombomiRs) as suitable candidates for monitoring antiplatelet therapy. The study provides evidence that thrombomiRs are promising biomarker candidates for monitoring the extent of platelet inhibition. This could enable stratification of patients depending on their response to antiplatelet therapy and guide treatment decisions. click here to read the paper

TAmiRNA is a key partner in the EU-funded Innovative Training Network FIDELIO, which aims to train the next generation of scientists in tackling the challenges of bone fragility in diabetic patients. The  webinar "MicroRNAs: small RNAs with big potential as biomarkers and drug targets in bone diseases" is a one-hour session hosted by TAmiRNA founder and CEO Dr. Matthias Hackl. He show how microRNAs control gene expression in virtually all human cells and that miRNA expression changes during the onset and progression of (bone) disorders enabling applications as biomarkers and drug targets. He introduce the biological and methodical basics of microRNA research and discuss diagnostic and therapeutic applications of microRNAs in bone disease. [...]

Circulating miRNAs in bone health and disease

2023-03-10T11:38:55+01:00January 19th, 2021|aging, biomarker, biomarkers, bone diseases, bone fracture risk assessment, microRNAs, microstructure, osteoporosis, Personalized medicine|Comments Off on 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 how the genesis of bone-derived circulating microRNAs via release from osteoblasts and osteoclasts could contribute to the communication between these cells and summarize evidence from clinical research studies that have investigated the clinical utility of microRNAs as biomarkers in musculoskeletal disorders. While previous reviews have mainly focused on diagnosis of primary osteoporosis, we have [...]

microRNA-146a controls age-related bone loss

2023-03-10T10:21:20+01:00November 24th, 2020|aging, biomarker, biomarkers, bone diseases, bone fracture risk assessment, microRNAs, microstructure, osteoporosis, Personalized medicine|Comments Off on 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 aging as a result of unrestricted bone anabolism and intact Wnt signaling. Therefore, miR‐146a crucially controls the temporal facet of bone homeostasis. "microRNA-146a controls age-related bone loss" Saferding V, Hofmann M, Brunner JS, et al.
