Implication

Database analysis reveals extensive circular, noncoding, and messenger RNA profiles in human blood exosomes, highlighting new avenues for noninvasive disease biomarker discovery.

Key Points

  • To establish exoRBase, a centralized web repository that catalogs, characterizes, and visualizes circular RNA, long non-coding RNA, and messenger RNA profiles derived from human blood exosomes in health and disease.
  • Curated and normalized RNA-seq data from human blood exosomes obtained from healthy individuals and patients with various diseases.
  • Integrated published experimental validation data along with annotations of transcript expression levels and predicted tissues of origin.
  • Cataloged 58,330 circular RNAs, 15,501 long non-coding RNAs, and 18,333 messenger RNAs in the initial database release.
  • Implemented dynamic web-based expression visualization across distinct disease conditions to facilitate comparative exosomal biomarker discovery.
