Solid Tumors of Childhood Display Specific Serum microRNA Profiles
21 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Serum biomarkers for diagnosis and risk stratification of childhood solid tumors would improve the accuracy/timeliness of diagnosis and reduce the need for invasive biopsies. We hypothesized that differential expression and/or release of microRNAs (miRNAs) by such tumors may be detected as altered serum miRNA profiles. METHODS: We undertook global quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) miRNA...
