Urinary extracellular vesicles for RNA extraction: optimization of a protocol devoid of prokaryote contamination

Background: Urinary extracellular vesicles (UEVs) represent an ideal platform for biomarker discovery. They carry different types of RNA species, and reported profile discrepancies related to the presence/absence of 18s and 28s rRNA remain controversial. Moreover, sufficient urinary RNA yields and r...
