Ötzi the Iceman: Researchers Validate the Stability of Genetic Markers
Researchers found the molecules in the well-known glacier mummy “Ötzi”. A number of facts have been scientifically proven about the glacier mummy, known as “the Iceman” or “Ötzi,” found in the Ötztal Alps (South Tyrol) in 1991.
Researchers found short ribonucleic acid molecules (microRNA) even in mummies like Oetzi.

The scientists took samples from Ötzi’s skin, stomach, and stomach contents. “It was a challenge to extract this genetic material in significant quantities and sufficient quality from the mummified tissue samples, and to measure and quantify it with the newest, very precise methods,” reports Stephanie Kreis, who isolated the microRNAs at the University of Luxembourg.
Professor Meese, head of the Institute of Human Genetics at Saarland University, claims that the stability of these biomarkers is also important for people today. “It is vital for clinical applications,” explains Meese. “It’s evident that the potential of microRNA is much greater than we previously thought. We still don’t know enough about how these molecules influence specific genes, entire gene families, or biochemical reaction pathways. When we investigate this further, it’s possible microRNAs will become new stars in therapy. Until then, however, there is a lot more work to do,” concludes Professor Keller.
