Abstract There is a need for blood biomarkers meningioma. The role of circulating micro RNA in cancer diagnosis has been the objective several studies. One extensively studied miRNA different types microRNA-497 (miR-497). This study systematically evaluated miR-497 as meningioma biomarker disease and classification. We exosomal serum 74 samples (WHO grade I=25, WHO II=25, III=24), 53 healthy co...

micrornas (mirnas) are a class of small non coding regulatory rnas that have key functions in multiple cell processes. deregulation of these tiny mirnas are involved in various human diseases. mir-155 is one of the multifunctional mirna that its over-expression has been found to be associated with different kinds of cancer such as leukemia, breast and colon cancers. it is thought that deregulat...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) is associated with cardiovascular complications and is characterized by high levels of YKL-40, an inflammatory glycoprotein involved in endothelial dysfunction. We investigated the predictive potential of circulating miR-24 in coronary heart diseases (CHD) DM2 patients with CHD, and control subjects. Blood samples were taken from 94 subjects of both genders, and d...

p65 is a transcription factor that is involved in many physiological and pathologic processes. Here we report that p65 strongly binds to the miR-23a-27a-24 cluster promoter to up-regulate its expression. As bone marrow-derived cells differentiate into red blood cells in vitro, p65/miR-23a-27a-24 cluster expression increases sharply and then declines before the appearance of red blood cells, sug...

Interleukin (IL)-24, a novel tumor suppressor/cytokine exhibits antitumor activity against a broad-spectrum of human cancer cells. In a recent study, we showed that IL-24 inhibited AKT in lung cancer cells. However, the molecular mechanism of AKT inhibition by IL-24 remains elusive.The high mobility group (HMG) A1 a member of the non-histone chromosomal proteins and commonly referred to as arch...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease that affects the central nervous system. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that are usually 18-24 nucleotides long, which may have a pivotal role in the expansion of many complex diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the transcript levels of miR-193b-3p and miR-376a-3p in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) ...

Myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced remodelling generally includes cell death (necrosis and apoptosis), myocyte hypertrophy, angiogenesis, cardiac fibrosis, and myocardial dysfunction. It is becoming increasingly clear that microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs), a group of highly conserved small (∼18-24 nucleotide) non-coding RNAs, fulfil specific functions in the reperfused myocardium towards ...

BACKGROUND Recently, plasma miRNAs have been reported as biomarkers for various diseases. However, the knowledge on the association of plasma miRNAs with ischemic stroke is still lacking. In this study, we investigated whether plasma concentrations of miR-30a, miR-126 and let-7b may be biomarkers for ischemic stroke in humans. METHODS One hundred ninety seven patients with ischemic stroke wer...

Abstract Background and aim Malignant involvement of the pericardium is seen in 1 to 20 percent autopsies patients with cancer. The most common metastatic tumor involving lung cancer [1]. We aimed distinguish origin pericardial fluid effusion (i.e. pericarditis vs cancer) based on miRNAs expression peripheral blood plasma. Method 8 hospitalized for collection neoplastic aetiology (lung cancer)....
