Abstract:
MiRNAs are non-coding RNAs of 19-25 nucleotides in length that regulate gene expression. Recent work suggests a role for miRNAs during hematopoiesis. Here, we described in detail how to successfully obtain highly pure megakaryocytes precursors from human CD34+ stem cells in culture to perform high-throughput miRNA profiling using a custom microarray platform.
