microRNA Signature and Expression of <i>Dicer</i> and <i>Drosha</i> Can Predict Prognosis and Delineate Risk Groups in Neuroblastoma
30 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
Neuroblastoma is a common childhood tumor and accounts for 15% of pediatric cancer deaths. To investigate the microRNA (miRNA) profile and role of Dicer and Drosha in neuroblastoma, we assessed the expression of 162 human miRNAs, Dicer and Drosha in 66 neuroblastoma tumors by using real-time PCR methods. We found global downregulation of miRNA expression in advanced neuroblastoma and identified 27 miRNAs that can...
