Overview

Biomarkers are measurable biological characteristics, molecules, or signals that serve as objective indicators of normal physiological processes, disease states, or responses to therapeutic intervention. They can be molecular, cellular, biochemical, or imaging-based, and they are used to support diagnosis, assess prognosis, stratify risk, monitor disease progression, and predict or evaluate treatment response. Useful biomarkers must be reliably measurable and meaningfully linked to the biological or clinical state they represent, and their identification and validation are central to precision and personalized medicine. Research on biomarkers spans diverse molecular classes and clinical applications. It includes the discovery and review of molecular biomarkers, the use of microRNA and long non-coding RNA as potential diagnostic and epigenetic markers, including in head and neck cancer and in newborns, and the development of cellular and molecular biomarkers for anti-inflammatory activity. It also encompasses imaging biomarkers, for example in age-related macular degeneration, immunological markers in conditions such as unexplained female infertility, and biomarkers used in cell-based and metabolomic assessment of organ health and environmental exposure. Recurring themes include the integration of molecular techniques with clinical questions, the evaluation of biomarker specificity and utility, and applications in diagnostics and disease monitoring. By providing measurable indicators of biological and disease processes, biomarkers are fundamental tools for research, diagnosis, and the development and targeting of therapies.
