Description
This volume focuses on the analysis of miRNA and its many components such as targets and expression profiling, regulation of gene expression, miRNA detection in biofluids, and its application in cancer and wound healing. The chapters in this book explore topics that’s cover biogenesis, isolation and profiling of miRNA, exosomal miRNAs, and the study of the functional significance of miRNAs. The chapters also cover screening miRNAs in mR-302/367 induced iPSCs, exosomal miRNAs from iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes proliferation, and the recently discovered sugar-like RNA glycylglycerins. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Cutting-edge and thorough, MicroRNA Protocols, Third Edition is a valuable resource that provides researchers with a comprehensive study of miRNAs and its numerous components and uses.
