Microvesicle biomarkers: Early diagnosis of diseases
Microvesicles are fragments of plasma membrane present in biological fluids such as blood and urine. They differ between patients and healthy people, and can therefore be used as biomarkers for diseases such as cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, offering many benefits compared to current invasive techniques. However, detecting microvesicles is difficult because of their small size.
The EMRP project 'Metrological characterisation of micro-vesicles from body fluids as non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers' (HLT02 MetVes) develops techniques for the reliable, comparable and quantitative analysis of microvesicles.
