Abstract:
Glioma is one of the most common carcinomas in terms of both incidence and mortality worldwide. This is a case-control study with 240 cases and age- and gender-matched controls in the rate of 1:1. The results of this present word indicated that the expressions of both miR-29b and VEGFA in blood were significantly different compared with the control group, and thus may help to differentiate glioma cases from the controls. In addition, the diagnostic role of miR-29b and VEGFA was important for the clinical application. In conclusion, circulating miR-29b and VEGFA could be used as diagnosis biomarkers.
