Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short non-coding RNA that can specially bind to the 3'-untranslated region of target mRNAs and regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. This study investigated the effects of a miRNA binding site polymorphism (rs1051296) in solute carrier family 19, member 1 (SLC19A1) on serum methotrexate (MTX) concentrations in Chinese children with acute lymphoblastic...
