Novel molecular biomarkers for detection of autologous blood transfusion in sport: Fetal hemoglobin and microRNAs

Resource description

Project Title: Novel molecular biomarkers for detection of autologous blood transfusion in sport: Fetal hemoglobin and microRNAs

Researchers: Pr. F. Manfredini, Pr. R. Gambari, Dr. R. Reverberi, Pr. M. Borgatti

Institution: University of Ferrara, Italy

Year accepted: 2014

Summary: We hypothesized that among the potential sensitive parameters, two biomarkers might show changes of interest during ABT: microRNA, small non coding RNAs that regulate gene expression and fetal haemoglobin (HbF), the main oxygen transport protein in the human fetus and still present at low concentration in red blood cells of healthy adults.
