Abstract excerpt
Fecal microRNAs (miRNAs) are increasingly explored as non-invasive markers of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, its holistic profile in Asian CRC patients remains elusive. In the present study, the global human fecal miRNAs in Asian Chinese CRC patients was assayed to elucidate novel diagnostic fecal markers. Additionally, the influence of blood in stool on fecal miRNA levels was investigated for the first time....
