まとめ

循環中のマイクロRNA (miRNA) は早期の大腸がんのバイオマーカーとして信頼できない可能性があります. 研究では,診断前の miRNAレベルと結腸がんリスクとの間の関連が限られていることが判明し,早期発見戦略の課題を示唆している.

MicroRNAs

MicroRNA (miRNA) are short, regulatory RNA transcribed from introns—non-coding regions of a gene—or intergenic regions—stretches of DNA present between genes. Several processing steps are required to form biologically active, mature miRNA. The initial transcript, called primary miRNA (pri-mRNA), base-pairs with itself forming a stem-loop structure. Within the nucleus, an endonuclease enzyme, called Drosha, shortens the stem-loop structure into hairpin-shaped pre-miRNA. After the pre-miRNA ends...
