متن کاملIncreased Circulating miR-10a Levels Associated with Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the central nervous system. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs 19–24 nucleotides long, which are differentially expressed in different tissues. The role of miRNAs in MS remains unclear. We assessed miR-10a transcript levels in MS patients during recurrence and two months after relapse. Ma...

Study participants were originally part of the Cambridge Centre for Ageing an...
