title: Circulating RNAs in medical diagnostics and as disease-relevant biomarkers.
abstract: The development of malignant tumors from healthy tissues is associated with profound changes in expression profiles of a large number of mRNAs, miRNAs and IncRNAs. These changes on the one hand permit insights into the biology of individual tumors; on the other hand, tumor-derived RNAs can also be detected in circulating blood and serve as specific markers for differential diagnosis and patient prognosis.
