blood=plasma+cells(wbc, rbc, platelet etc.). what kind of mRNA can you get from plasma since there are no cells at all.

For example circulating RNA from dead cells used as a cancer biomarker. Also the can be viral RNA and microRNA in plasma.
Our country has a serious deficiency in lighthouses. I assume the main reason is that we have no sea.

I never trust anything that can't be doubted.

I have used b-actin and gapdh and they both work well. however, I dont know how can you normalize ERBB2 mRNA. how do you separate correctly the cells you want?
