Circulating Serum miRNA (miR-367-3p, miR-371a-3p, miR-372-3p and miR-373-3p) as Biomarkers in Patients with Testicular Germ Cell Cancer
18 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Classic serum tumor markers (human chorionic gonadotropin, α1-fetoprotein and lactate dehydrogenase) have an important role in managing testicular germ cell tumor. Since only 60% of all patients with testicular germ cell tumor have elevations of these markers, there is a need for new biomarkers with greater sensitivity/specificity. miRNAs are deregulated in cancer and could serve as noninvasive serum...
