Plasma Viral MicroRNA Profiles Reveal Potential Biomarkers for Chronic Active Epstein–Barr Virus Infection
17 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Chronic active Epstein-Barr virus (CAEBV) infection has high mortality and morbidity, and biomarkers for disease severity and prognosis are required. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs, and EBV encodes multiple miRNAs. Because plasma contains sufficiently stable miRNAs, circulating EBV-associated miRNA profiles were investigated as novel biomarkers in CAEBV infection. METHODS: Plasma miRNA...
