Plasma microRNA signatures predict prognosis in canine osteosarcoma patients

Abstract excerpt

Appendicular central osteosarcoma (OSA) is a common and highly aggressive tumour in dogs. Metastatic disease to the lungs is common and even with chemotherapy the prognosis is generally poor. However, few cases survive well beyond reported median survival times. Current methods, including histologic grading schemes, have fallen short in their ability to predict clinical outcome. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small...
