Performance assessment of total RNA sequencing of human biofluids and extracellular vesicles Ghent University
RNA profiling has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate the biomarker potential of human biofluids. However, despite enormous interest in extracellular nucleic acids, RNA sequencing methods to quantify the total RNA content outside cells are rare. Here, we evaluate the performance of the SMARTer Stranded Total RNA-Seq method in human platelet-rich plasma, platelet-free plasma, urine, conditioned medium, and extracellular vesicles (EVs) from ...
