Short communication: Dynamic chemical labelling allows the measurement of the paracetamol toxicity biomarker microRNA‐122 in hospital clinical laboratories

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
MicroRNA‐122 (miR‐122) is a sensitive biomarker for paracetamol‐induced liver injury. This study assessed the diagnostic performance of dynamic chemical labelling (DCL) combined with an immunoassay platform to quantify miR‐122 in human serum, as a proof‐of‐concept for hospital use.
