Deep Sequencing the microRNA profile in rhabdomyosarcoma reveals down-regulation of miR-378 family members
25 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a highly malignant tumour accounting for nearly half of soft tissue sarcomas in children. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent a class of short, non-coding, regulatory RNAs which play a critical role in different cellular processes. Altered miRNA levels have been reported in human cancers, including RMS. METHODS: Using deep sequencing technology, a total of 685 miRNAs were...
