Schematic representation of circulating RNA biomarkers for NAFLD diagnosis. Circulating RNAs (e.g., mRNAs, miRNAs, lncRNAs and circRNAs) can be embedded in membranous vesicles, associated with RNA binding protein or in a free form. Membranous vesicles, besides RNA, contain other macromolecules, including DNA, proteins and metabolites.
