Potential role of circulating microRNAs as a biomarker for unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion

Sunday, May 1, 2016

Four circulating miRNAs (miR-320b, miR-146b-5p, miR-221-3p, miR-559) were up-regulated and one miRNA (miR-101-3p) was down-regulaed in unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA). These circulating microRNAs may be involved in URSA pathogenesis and provide a promising new diagnostic biomarker for URSA.
