The contribution of extracellular RNA and its derived biomaterials in disease management

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The implications of exRNA's biological function and the structural uniqueness of RNA help establish a close connection between RNA, material, and modern medicine. Abstract The RNA found in the circular system is known as extracellular RNA (exRNA). This kind of RNA has been found to play a biological role similar to that of a messenger. They can be used
