The article “Circulating Extracellular Vesicles Contain Liver-Derived RNA Species as Indicators of Severe Cholestasis-Induced Early Liver Fibrosis in Mice”, written by the researchers of Abich Srl in collaboration with the University of Turin inside the Epatocare project, has been published in the journal Antioxid Redox Signal.
The project was born with the aim of identify early biomarkers of liver fibrosis for a non-invasive diagnosis. The reference cluster for the project is LIFE SCIENCE, led by the bioPmed cluster.
Abich, together with the Molecular Biotechnology Centre of the University of Turin, studied extracellular microvesicles (EVs) originating in the liver and present in blood, as a source of diagnostic markers: the results of these studies are described in the article “Circulating Extracellular Vesicles Contain Liver-Derived RNA Species as Indicators of Severe Cholestasis-Induced Early Liver Fibrosis in Mice” (Antioxid Redox Signal.2022 Jan 4. doi: 10.1089/ars.2021.0023).
