Context: Circulating MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as novel biomarkers for tumour.
Objective: Evaluate the diagnostic potential of plasma miR-200b-3p in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
Materials And Methods: miR-200b-3p was detected by qRT-PCR in paired pre-operative and post-operative plasmas from 80 OSCC patients and 80 healthy controls.
Results: Plasma miR-200b-3p was significantly upregulated in OSCC, and it was higher in WHO II/III grade than WHO I grade. The AUC of miR-200b-3p for OSCC was 0.9173. miR-200b-3p was significantly downregulated after surgery. High miR-200b-3p expression was associated with poor prognosis.
Discussion And Conclusion: Plasma miR-200b-3p could be a potential diagnostic biomarker for OSCC.

Little is known about how exclusive e-cigarette use affects exosomal microRNA (miRNA) expression, which is crucial in inflammation and disease processes like cancer. We compared exosomal miRNA profiles between exclusive e-cigarette users and non-users. We used plasma samples from 15 exclusive e-cigarette users and 15 non-users from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Wave 1 study (2013-2014) and sequenced miRNAs with Illumina NextSeq 500/550.

Primary hypertension is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. However, the pathogenesis of primary hypertension involves multiple biological processes, including the nervous system, circulatory system, endocrine system, and more. Despite extensive research, there is no clear understanding of the regulatory mechanism underlying its pathogenesis.

Introduction: Melanoma is a rare but highly malignant form of skin cancer. Although recent targeted and immune-based therapies have improved survival rates by 10-15%, effective melanoma treatment remains challenging. Therefore, novel, combinatorial therapy options such as non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma (NTP) are being investigated to inhibit and prevent chemoresistance.

Background: Hyperglycemia can promote the development of prostate cancer (PCa). Differential expression levels of miRNAs between PCa patients and controls were also reported. Therefore, we examined the relationship between hyperglycemia and miRNA levels in PCa.

Evidence on the association between occupational noise exposure and blood pressure is inconsistent, and the underlying mechanism remains unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the association between occupational noise exposure and blood pressure, and explore the potential role of miRNAs in the association. A total of 894 subjects from two companies in Wuhan, China were included.
