Investigating the Role of Extracellular Vesicle-Mediated Transfer of snoRNAs and Ribosomes in Joint Ageing

University of Liverpool
Institute of Life Course and Medical Sciences
Ageing causes significant deterioration in musculoskeletal tissues, especially cartilage, contributing to osteoarthritis. Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and extracellular vesicles (EVs) change with age and may drive cartilage decline by altering ribosome function and transferring regulatory RNA cargo. Read more
