miR-940 is a new biomarker with tumor diagnostic and prognostic value [PDF]
miR-940 is a microRNA located on chromosome 16p13.3, which has varying degrees of expression imbalance in many diseases. It binds to the 3′ untranslated region (UTR) and affects the transcription or post-transcriptional regulation of target protein ...

Optimization of a method for the clinical detection of serum exosomal miR-940 as a potential biomarker of breast cancer [PDF]
Serum exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) are potential biomarkers for tumor diagnosis. Clinically, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT−qPCR) can be used to determine the expression of exosomal miRNAs in the serum of breast cancer ...

MicroRNA-940 as a Potential Serum Biomarker for Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is one of the leading causes of death despite an astoundingly high survival rate for localized tumors. Though prostate specific antigen (PSA) test, performed in conjunction with digital rectal examinations, is reasonably accurate, there ...

Unique microRNA expression profiles in plasmic exosomes from intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy
Background Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is strongly associated with an increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes. Total bile acid (TBA) levels in the late second or third trimester are a major factor in the diagnosis. Here, we sought to
