Abstract
Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have attracted major interest as biomarkers for cardiovascular diseases. Since
RNases are abundant in circulating blood, there needs to be a mechanism protecting miRNAs from degradation. We hypothesized that microparticles (MP) represent protective transport vehicles for miRNAs and that these are specifically packaged by their maternal cells.
