NANJING UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LIFE SCIENCES In a new study published in Cell Research, Chen-Yu Zhang’s group at Nanjing University School of Life Sciences, China, reports that SIDT1 in the mammalian stomach mediates host uptake of dietary and orally administered microRNAs (miRNAs), thus exerting biological functions in the host. In previous studies, Chen-Yu Zhang’s group...

miRNA profiling of urinary exosomes to assess the progression of acute kidney injury
Hiroko Sonoda, Byung Rho Lee, Ki-Hoon Park, Deepak Nihalani, Je-Hyun Yoon, Masahiro Ikeda& Sang-Ho Kwon Abstract Because exosomes have gained attention as a source of biomarkers, we investigated if miRNAs in exosomes (exo-miRs) can report the disease progression of organ injury. Using rat renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) as a model of acute kidney injury (AKI),...
