Briefings

A new technique developed at Nagoya University enables the detection of chronic inflammation by analyzing extracellular vesicles in blood and urine. The method allows for noninvasive diagnosis and identifies the specific tissues where inflammation is occurring, offering a potential advancement over current diagnostic methods.

Key points

• The technique uses a new method to read information from the surface and inside individual extracellular vesicles found in blood and urine samples.
• This approach enables noninvasive testing that can detect chronic inflammation and simultaneously identify the specific tissues involved in the condition.

Context

Researchers at Nagoya University have created a diagnostic technique capable of analyzing extracellular vesicles in blood and urine to identify chronic inflammation and its location in tissues.

Limitations

The evidence is limited to a single article from 2026. No specific dates, numbers, or named individuals are provided. The study does not specify the exact mechanism of the technique or its clinical validation status.
