Predictive Value of MicroRNAs in the Progression of Barrett Esophagus to Adenocarcinoma in a Long-Term Follow-up Study
11 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to identify a set of microRNAs (miRNAs) as prognostic molecular biomarkers for the progression of Barrett esophagus (BE) to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) to rationalize the surveillance programs in patients with BE. BACKGROUND: Histological dysplasia is currently used as the main biomarker to identify the BE patients at high risk for developing EAC. Although miRNA expression...
