The Power of MicroRNAs as Diagnostic Biomarkers in Rare Genetic Disorders
Author(s): Diana Schmidt*
Rare genetic disorders, though individually uncommon, collectively affect a significant portion of the global population. These disorders often result from mutations in a single gene and are typically associated with complex clinical presentations. The challenge in diagnosing rare genetic disorders lies in the heterogeneity of symptoms and the low prevalence, which leads to delays in diagnosis and treatment. Traditional diagnostic approaches, such as clinical evaluations and genetic testing, often fail to identify these disorders early, contributing to prolonged patient suffering. Recent advancements in molecular diagnostics, particularly the use of microRNAs (miRNAs), are revolutionizing the early diagnosis of rare genetic disorders.
